Plausible Deniability
5 Reasons Why China Denies Spy Balloon Was Theirs
Isn’t it obvious?
- Do you think everything that is the color red comes from China? Are you 3 years old? Do you believe everything you see on Fox News and MSNBC? Do Americans live in a worse propaganda state than our very own China?
- There is nothing to see. It’s true. What is there to see in America besides a few scattered bagel donut shops, some gigantic yellow ‘M’s, and a few concrete jungles with third-rate transport systems?
- Don’t change the subject: the only hot air balloon that was sent overseas in recent memory was when you sent Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan to virtue-signal to the rest of the world about her ‘special connection’ with ‘Asians’. Projection much? Stop calling the kettle black, and first deal with your own dirty undies.
- We already have spy technology set up in your country in the form of those waving lucky cats you see in every Chinese restaurant you’ve ever set foot into. We knew you were thick, but not that thick.
- We don’t need to spy on you as you broadcast all of your secrets to the rest of the world without anybody even asking for them. Thanks for making our job easier.
