Everything you see on Tv, especially ads - are there to influence you. And are a form of propaganda. This isn’t any different.it’s propaganda being rammed down our throats.
Also not sure what you meant about the news and China but I’ve seen so many sick videos from there and there is nothing on the news about any of it, yet we hear about Ukraine and covid daily.
I recommend a book called Skeptics Guide to the Universe. Seriously, I feel like I know you and you’ll love it. My point is that with population as large as China’s you’ll have all kinds of videos that are fake and real. Yet it’s not representative of factual reality of what is true for the 99.9999% of the population in Shanghai. Food is delivered, gated communities are in lockdowns. It’s hard but livable. Our relatives jokingly call it “concentration camps”, but no one is working or allowed to leave. It’s a bad situation with a bad policy. Most hate it, but the internet has a way to make a bad look 100x worse.
