Not particularly, it's easy to read between the lines. Almost every news has propaganda in it, it's just a matter of degree. The comment I was replying to had obvious anti-US propaganda so why not reply in kind?
The actual report on CCP leaderships wealth is interesting to read though.
Why not respond in kind? Because you, the article, and the report loses all credibility.
Nah, regardless of the source posted I would likely not have credibility with the sort of folks who can't read an opinion piece with a strong belief and stance on something and consider those opinions and points anyways.
Personally it's not surprising that the people most interested in exposing the mass illicit wealth of the CCP politburo would be those who believe the CCP is illegitimate and harmful to the Chinese people. However since pro-communist propaganda is in vogue these days perhaps reading a counter view will expand some people's thinking. The article I linked was interesting precisely because it accepted and believed that the obvious corruption of CCP leadership is bad and called for exposing that.
