EDITORIAL: China reshaping global narrativeA Beijing-based think tank last week published a poll showing that the majority of Chinese consider “international military intervention in Taiwan” one of the top threats facing China. A poll conducted in China, where freedom of speech is curtailed, cannot accurately reflect public opinion. Direct elections are held only at the local level in China, where nominees are controlled and vetted by the CCP. That the South China Morning Post also reported on the poll suggests that the CCP intends to use it as propaganda in Hong Kong. Schools should also teach children about disinformation and other threats from China, and conduct audits to limit the impact of China-friendly educators.
