Slop.

While the graphic novel is geographically grounded in an Asia governed by authoritarian China, it also portrays the US as a proto-fascist state, resisting the idea that criticising one necessarily means painting the other in a positive light.

A - once again notable how any criticism of the US is permitted, or even promoted, as long as it also aligns with US foreign policy. Also interesting that this and the Iran prisoner letter both appeared in the Guardian. Did they hire all the remaining NATO leftists recently?

B - very telling that US propaganda has retreated from "greatest country in the world" to the fallback of "actually things are just as bad everywhere else"

Almost tempted to read it just to see what state department style liberalism has been working on during their exile
