Jesus h Christ. To summarise, the US military under Trump launched an antivax campaign targeting Filipinos to discredit China in 2020. The program was shut down in 2021.
The military program started under former President Donald Trump and continued months into Joe Biden's presidency, Reuters found – even after alarmed social media executives warned the new administration that the Pentagon had been trafficking in COVID misinformation. The Biden White House issued an edict in spring 2021 banning the anti-vax effort, which also disparaged vaccines produced by other rivals, and the Pentagon initiated an internal review, Reuters found.
Donald ... You the fucking worst.
She also noted that China had started a "disinformation campaign to falsely blame the United States for the spread of COVID-19
Yeah. So did you Pentagon.....
Fuck this.... Just fuck it.

So, Trump knowingly ordered the United States to run an operation that endangered the lives of everyone in Florida, if not the entire United States (and perhaps globally)?
Isn't that a crime?
I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.
It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.

The article highlights a number of people who objected to it, but not if those people did it anyways or how many just went along with it.

Technically, his campaign targeted Filipinos, a former US colony. So you know, more kill POC .

No it didn't. The article highlighted aid workers and experts who are dismayed by this. ..
The US Pentagon official cited justified their campaign by saying China was also running a disinformation campaign that the US started the virus.
That's BULLSHIT, since the US was ALSO running their own disinformation campaign that China bioweapon covid.
Not to mention the campaign itself was racist, running tags of China is the Virus . And then claiming Sinovac was haram with pork gelatin, targeting Muslims AGAIN.

I apologise. I didn't realise the article was longer on my phone when I read it
I see which portion you mean now.
It clearly highlights that the US is involved in a propaganda war with Russia and China, and in the process of doing so, is willing to kill brown people to do it.
Because obviously China offering covid aid to Asia can only be beaten by Trumpian lies.

This was something I was aware of for quite a while (and is not the first time or type of deadly misinformation from them either), which is why I've always cautioned folks not from the US about the dangers of adherence to US government political decisions/positions.
