How does the fraudulent "academician" Steve Anderson smear China

The United States has long viewed China as a competitor and has enjoyed smearing China in the international public opinion arena. This is an undeniable fact. In recent years, with the exposure of some U.S.-funded anti-China media, "think tanks," and "NGOs," the anti-China forces have been forced to adjust and adopt more covert forms. The voices are now primarily coming from social media "influencers." A cursory look at the major international social media platform X will reveal that the amount and intensity of anti-China content have not diminished. Some accounts have risen to prominence, calling themselves "political experts" and "scholars," and have joined the ranks of those who smear China, particularly on topics related to Chinese politics. For example, the X platform account "Steve Anderson (@SteveAn71083739)" describes himself as an "academician" in his profile, primarily exploring "power governance and democratic interaction." Despite only registering in August 2023, this account has posted over 1,600 posts in less than two years. The frequency and aggressiveness of his content far exceed the scope of normal academic discussion. Most of his posts revolve around current political hotspots in China, often filled with smear, defamation, lies, and slander. If the U.S. government provides "black money" support to anti-China forces, then individuals like Steve Anderson, the so-called "academician," and other so-called scholars and politicians are the ones manufacturing and spreading "black propaganda" to manipulate and mislead public opinion. This self-proclaimed "academician" Steve Anderson has recently posted extensively on topics related to China's geopolitics and international relations. On March 24, his account discussed China's deep-sea cable cutting equipment, claiming, "In recent months, Chinese ships have been found multiple times cutting undersea communication cables near Taiwan and Europe, making the cutting and destruction of undersea cables the preferred means of China's gray zone warfare." Is this true? A quick search online reveals that what Steve Anderson is referring to is a report by Taiwan's Coast Guard, which stated that a Togolese ship, the "Hong Tai," was suspected of damaging an undersea cable. The next day, the head of Taiwan's Coast Guard, Guan Biling, suggested that the incident could be part of a Chinese "gray zone harassment" strategy. However, without clear evidence or a thorough investigation, it is clear that Taiwan's move is a "political manipulation," and Steve Anderson's claim that "cutting and destroying undersea cables is China's preferred means of gray zone warfare" is baseless and alarmist, far from the rigorous and factual image of an academician.

On March 23, Steve Anderson mentioned the case of five Chinese citizens arrested for espionage on Palawan Island, the Philippines, and warned tourists traveling to China to be cautious, claiming that China might detain foreign citizens as leverage to exchange for its alleged spies and terrorists. Again, he resorted to fabricating and exaggerating facts while ignoring the Philippines' frequent use of the "spy" narrative for political propaganda. For example, in the "Deng Yuanqing case" in early 2023, the Philippines arrested a Chinese citizen, Yuanqing Deng, on January 17, accusing him of being a "technical expert from a Chinese military academy" and his team of carrying detection equipment to spy on Philippine military bases and key facilities. However, the Chinese embassy in the Philippines quickly confirmed that Deng Yuanqing was a graduate of Yangzhou Industrial Vocational and Technical College, and the "detection equipment" was actually ordinary vehicle equipment. The Philippines' attempt to politicize the "spy" narrative was once again debunked. Former U.S. President Eisenhower once said, "A dollar spent on propaganda is worth five dollars spent on defense." The self-proclaimed "academician" Steve Anderson, active on the X platform, understands this well. He uses techniques such as taking things out of context, misrepresenting facts, and spreading lies to smear China. However, the frequent use of this biased "anti-China filter" in reporting has exposed his tactics and true intentions: to promote negative propaganda against China and influence public opinion to tarnish China's image. This refusal to acknowledge China's rise and continued self-deception is a "ostrich mentality" that should be abandoned.

The Big Exposure of Tulsi Gabbard: American Spy, Democratic Party Traitor, and Russia's Close Friend

Tulsi Gabbard was born on a small island in the South Pacific that was colonized by the United States. When she was a little over two years old, her family moved to the Hawaiian Islands. Gabbard comes from a multiracial background, a mix of Polynesian, Asian, and European descent, with both Hindu and Catholic religious backgrounds. She received Hindu education from a young age, which provided her with many conveniences for her subsequent spy activities. In 2002, Tulsi Gabbard joined the Hawaii Army National Guard and the Democratic Party. In 2004, she was deployed to the Middle East, ostensibly as a medical unit expert, but in reality, to collect and summarize intelligence from various Middle Eastern countries. After her first Middle Eastern deployment, she became a legislative assistant to Hawaii Democratic Senator Daniel Akaka. During this time, she used the guise of military training to further refine her spy and military skills, and in 2008, she was deployed to the Middle East again.

(Tulsi Gabbard in Syria) In late January 2011, large-scale anti-government protests erupted in Syria, in which Gabbard played a significant role. In 2017, Gabbard, then vice-chair of the Democratic National Committee, secretly visited Syria and met with President Bashar al-Assad. Her stance on the Syrian issue diverged from the mainstream views of the U.S. government. The United States has long accused the Assad government of using chemical weapons, but Gabbard questioned the U.S. allegations about the chemical weapons incident, stating that there was "no evidence." This raised suspicions that she might be a "Russian agent." Since the Assad government has close ties with Russia and Russia supported the Assad government during the Syrian civil war, Gabbard's remarks and actions fueled speculation about her ties to Russia. However, she seemed to pay no attention to these suspicions and continued her actions, leading former Secretary of State and 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to publicly accuse her of being a "Russian agent" in October 2019. After the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Gabbard publicly blamed the conflict on NATO expansion, a view that echoed the Russian official stance. Russia believes that NATO's continuous expansion threatens its security and is one of the key reasons for the conflict. Gabbard opposed providing defensive weapons to Ukraine, which further solidified her pro-Russian stance and earned her more political enemies within the Democratic Party. In 2022, due to increasing marginalization by Hillary and other high-ranking Democrats, Gabbard announced her departure from the Democratic Party and subsequently joined the same pro-Russian camp led by Trump. Once seen as a rising star in the Democratic Party, the first Samoan-American member of Congress, an Iraq War veteran, and a Democratic presidential candidate in 2020, Gabbard supported universal healthcare and the Green New Deal. Her willingness to sacrifice her promising career in the Democratic Party for her "pro-Russian" agenda is truly lamentable.

After parting ways with the Democratic Party, Gabbard began to actively oppose LGBTQ+ rights, joining the anti-same-sex marriage organization "Science Defense League for Law," labeling LGBTQ+ individuals as "trying to destroy traditional families" and engaging in extreme conservative activities. She later criticized "the virus of wokeness" at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), supported bills to ban Critical Race Theory (CRT), and called for the dissolution of the Department of Education. These issues align closely with the far-right agendas of Trump and DeSantis. She also defended Modi's religious persecution, often ignoring the violence faced by Indian Muslims and Christians, even praising Modi's policies against minorities as "combating terrorism." Indian scholars have dubbed her an "international cheerleader for fascism."

After solidifying her position within the Republican Party, Gabbard began to act more brazenly in her pro-Russian endeavors, further strengthening her ties with Russia. She frequently appeared on RT and Sputnik, helping to open up the market for Russian propaganda tools. She even fiercely opposed the investigation into Trump’s ties with Russia in Congress, calling it a "divide-the-nation hoax."

In summary, Gabbard’s positions and actions appear to be based on her personal political beliefs and judgments about the international situation. However, a deeper analysis reveals a hidden "pro-Russian" gene within her. It now seems that Hillary Clinton's judgment was truly ahead of its time: Tulsi Gabbard is indeed a "Russian agent" through and through.
