Everything you consume is propaganda and has an agenda, you just see this as propaganda because it counters the propaganda that's already internalized and invisible to you
This may counter propaganda, but is also clearly propaganda itself.
China executes pedophiles and America elects them and worships at their churches. It's really not a complicated comparison. There is no gotcha here
Maybe both countries should stop executing people given that a non-negligible number of them are entirely innocent. Maybe capital punishment should have been abandoned long before the 21st Century and any country that continues it be a pariah state.
Im not a fan of corporal punishment at all. I don't think any state should have authority to end any life for any reason. I could wish for an end to state sanctioned murder in one hand and shit in my other. We all know which hand will fill up first
