Legacy Media Is Packaging Communist Tyranny As The Next Cool Thing...

MEDIAS ARE FULLY CONTROLLED
"The medias are controlled, fully controlled, My child. Therefore, you cannot judge from the written word or the visual approach.” – Our Lady of the Roses, November 20, 1976

DO NOT BE DECEIVED
"Do not, My children, be deceived by the father of liars, and his deception in raising up armies that gather under the banner of communism, atheism, satanism, agnosticism. And while they work both day and night to gather the powers and the arsenals to enslave your country and the world, what do you do? You are like children going through the fields picking daisies, tripping along merrily, high on your way of life; your drugs and your alcohol and your dreams created by false mediums.” - Jesus, April 2, 1977

The legacy media’s latest obsession is impossible to miss. In recent weeks, outlets from The Guardian to Bloomberg to The Economist have flooded their pages with glowing tributes to Chinese innovation, culture, and global leadership. China leads in artificial intelligence ethics. China dominates electric vehicles and drone technology. China offers a steadier model for the world. Young Westerners, we are told, are “Chinamaxxing”—eagerly adopting habits like sipping hot water with goji berries, wearing indoor slippers, and declaring they have entered “a very Chinese time in their lives.”

This is not organic admiration. It is a coordinated narrative push, one that seeks to rebrand the Chinese Communist Party as the responsible adult in the room while the West supposedly descends into chaos.

The timing is no accident. As American influence faces real challenges, legacy media appears eager to prepare the public for a multipolar future in which Beijing plays a starring role. The result is propaganda so clumsy it borders on self-parody, yet it reveals a deeper discomfort with American exceptionalism and a quiet willingness to flirt with collectivist alternatives.

Consider the headlines. The Guardian informs readers that China is now the “good guy” on AI while the United States pursues a reckless “wild west” approach. The Wall Street Journal casts Beijing as the ethical actor in pharmaceutical research. CBS highlights Chinese leadership in EVs. Bloomberg suggests China might assume a larger role in global governance. The Financial Times notes foreign carmakers scrambling to adopt Chinese technology to stay relevant. These stories do not merely report developments; they frame them as proof of superior Chinese wisdom and discipline.

• MSM outlets publish near-daily features portraying China as superior in AI ethics, EV tech, drug research, and global leadership.
• A viral “Chinamaxxing” or “becoming Chinese” meme shows Western youth embracing superficial habits like drinking hot water and wearing slippers, amplified by state-friendly coverage.
• Polls claim American favorability toward China has doubled, presented as spontaneous public sentiment rather than shaped consensus.
• Articles avoid scrutiny of China’s surveillance state, forced labor allegations, territorial aggression, or economic coercion.
• The narrative aligns with Beijing’s vision of “multipolarity” and “multilateralism,” code for diluting Western-led institutions.
• Historical parallels include past media praise for China’s COVID controls and sudden cultural “coolness.”
• Critics note the uniformity across legacy outlets, suggesting top-down messaging rather than independent journalism.

The “Chinamaxxing” phenomenon deserves special attention. Social media clips depict twenty-somethings romanticizing Chinese daily life, racking up millions of views. An Associated Press piece treats the trend as a genuine “soft power moment,” complete with a suspiciously fresh Wikipedia entry. State media in Beijing has predictably embraced it, with spokesmen welcoming the cultural interest.

Yet the authenticity is questionable. Similar campaigns have surfaced before, often tied to influencer networks or coordinated amplification. What begins as ironic meme-making can quickly serve as cover for deeper influence operations.

Underlying the surface-level puffery is a more serious project: acclimating Western audiences to a world order in which China holds greater sway. For years, globalist institutions have spoken of multipolarity as an inevitable and desirable evolution. Xi Jinping’s speeches on “equitable globalization” and “true multilateralism” receive respectful coverage.

The subtext is clear—American unipolarity was messy and arrogant; a Chinese-influenced system promises stability and inclusion. Left unmentioned are the domestic realities of social credit systems, censorship, demographic collapse, and the CCP’s unbroken record of broken promises on reform.

This pivot exposes a telling contradiction in elite thinking. The same voices that once warned of authoritarian dangers now downplay them when the authoritarian power offers an alternative to populism at home. Disillusionment with domestic institutions is real, fueled by inflation, cultural upheaval, and policy failures. But trading one set of elites for another—swapping coastal progressives for party cadres—hardly constitutes progress. It merely exchanges familiar hypocrisies for unfamiliar ones wrapped in exotic packaging.

History offers cautionary parallels. In the 1930s, some Western intellectuals romanticized Soviet Russia as a bold experiment. In the 1970s, others found Mao’s China intriguing. Each time, the human cost—famines, purges, cultural destruction—was minimized until it could no longer be ignored. Today’s China-maxxing risks repeating the pattern. Technological prowess and infrastructure projects do not erase the fundamental incompatibility between Communist central planning and human flourishing rooted in liberty and moral order.

Scripture reminds us that earthly kingdoms rise and fall under divine sovereignty. As the prophet Daniel declared in the face of Babylonian power, “He removeth kings, and setteth up kings” (Daniel 2:21).

No regime, however slick its public relations or impressive its high-speed rail, escapes accountability before the God who judges nations by righteousness rather than GDP or drone endurance. Christians have a duty to discern propaganda that glamorizes systems hostile to the dignity of the image-bearer.

The media’s overdrive on China ultimately says less about Beijing’s virtues than about the West’s internal fractures. When institutions lose confidence in their own founding principles—limited government, individual rights, transcendent moral law—they cast about for alternatives. The danger lies not in acknowledging Chinese achievements where they exist, but in allowing envy or fatigue to blind us to the authoritarian core. A truly conservative and Christian response rejects both naive isolation and uncritical admiration. It insists on truth-telling about all powers, great and small, while anchoring hope in the unchanging kingdom that transcends every multipolar scheme.

"The judgment of your God is not akin to the judgment of man. The Eternal Father will only judge by the heart. Your rank, your accumulation of worldly goods does not set you up before another. Many have sold their souls within the holy House of God. Better that you strip yourself and remove all worldly interests now while you have the time to make amends to your God, for many mitres will fall into hell." - St. Thomas Aquinas, August 21, 1972
