    Articles from Al Jazeera? What exactly is your standard for journalism that even Al Jazeera is considered to be too biased for you? It’s not like OP is posting FoxNews articles or anything.

      You have to scroll a bit, but you can eventually see comments made by the OP, supporting CCP, criticizing Western countries and capitalism, claiming Tibetans love CCP and that China and Tibet are one country, etc. Definitely a shill.

        Meh. Would he be a shill if he was attacking all of that?

        Seems like ‘shill’ is being tossed around as ‘goes against the status quo.’

        I don’t agree with what he says, but I’ll defend his ability to say it here. If it bothers me too much, I can just block him and move on with my life.

        Exactly this.

        I’m not disputing the story. I think knowing the OPs motivation for posting it is useful info.
