China's social media propaganda machine has tried to shift the country's image from a source of COVID-19 to a global leader in fighting it, research reveals

China has sought to portray itself on English-language social media as the global leader in the fight against COVID-19 rather than as the origin of the novel coronavirus, new research reveals.

"I really see China as embracing this seminal moment to take control on the narrative," the lead researcher on the report told Business Insider. The report finds that the messaging around the coronavirus follows China's familiar crisis-response pattern: In the early days, "social media posts from state-run organizations are likely at their most transparent and accurate," but the messaging tends to "degrade over time as the propaganda machine kicks in to influence the message being sent abroad."

"China has a very specific set of strategic goals related to their ascendancy on the global stage," she told Business Insider. "Their primary goal is to make other countries comfortable with the role they want to play in the world."

CCP always like raising propaganda and misinformation warfare. We should be aware of this. CCPLiedPeopleDied CCPVirus

bubu99648804 I am so sad.But China will more and more stronger.I just wanna to say to someone:funny mud pee

North Korea did the same but who will beleive it?

Do we have to thank China then? For trying to combat against the pandemic COVID19 which was caused by China. ChinaLiedPeopleDied

How disgusting the propaganda machine’s trying to spin away the fact that 1) they hid the truth of the severity of CCPVirus, failing to contain the virus and creating thousands of deaths; 2) Xi should be held accountable 4 this while he pretends to be a hero fighting the virus.

2112Frankie Not working though

Extremely hard to not notice!

People from around the world must stay clear-headed. China covered up the truth and spread the CCP virus to the whole world. ChinaLiedPeopleDied

Because China is so worried that all other countries will turn against her

I don’t need a research to tell me. It’s so obvious. Also obvious that many are falling for that CCP propaganda.. why is it so hard to see the truth/reality of china ?

No one will trust china ChinaCorona

But with countries returning faulty test kits and masks, guess that campaign doesn't work out🤔

If China really successfully control the epidemic, why do their citizens block the Hubei people leaving their province even thought the government annocined ZERO inflection? Because they know CCP is lying

They had months to work on researching how it incubates and transmits, quietly segregating and locking down hotspots without the WHOs knowledge. They had time to sanitize, produce masks and gloves, all while allowing infected people to travel in droves to key western nations.

Oh please! The virus is originated from China; and they get a lot of help at the beginning.

Don't fall into Chinese national propaganda, China is no hero in this war MakeChinaPay

WuhanVirus ChinaIsAsshoe ChinaMustPay

CCP has succeeded for multiple times, rewriting history and buried its crimes, such as Tiananmen massacre, the concentration camps in Xinjiang, we know something happened, but likely just tip of an iceberg We shouldn't let CCP success again

They hid the outbreak and wanna be leader? The leader of coronavirus

NASTY

You don't need a research to tell you communist lies, do you? ChinaLiedPeopleDied

This needed to be researched? 😂

Stab then give u a small bandage?

Does this even need a research⁉️⁉️ The dishonest nature is deeply rooted in Chinese regime. It is their instinct as CCP_is_terrorist ‼️ MakeChinaPay ChineseVirus BoycottChina

aaronelizebath China is the killer. Thousands died due the WuhanCoronaVirus

Do u have any real evidence that the virus originated in China? It is a global crisis. A lot of papers have been published, please do some research and stay safe.

And USA incompetence makes it easy for em

yapphenghui Everything is Made in China, including Truth.

Business Insider is lying, that's a fact. E.g. in February they posted video about self driving garbage truck. Don't read that nonsense.

Such coward act is CCP’s daily act. coronavirusisfromchina

well what do u expect with a bastard government

CCP is just like Mysterio in Spidermanfarfromhome Wuhanvirus CCPVirus

It failed miserably. Fundamentally, distrust the world feel toward China is so deep. It may be wise not to say or do anything for time being.

Democracy is the mind virus that is destroying Earth.

CCP will not tell you the real figures . Silencing of dissents and smesr campaigns show the real nature.

China should pay for the whole world because of this ChineseCoronaVirus ,how many people die because of this evil country ChinaLiedPeopleDie

All evidence suggests that the virus outbreak was caused by the Chinese government, they continue to pass false information and guide public opinion, will have no effect. They must be held accountable for hiding the outbreak and outward spreading the virus.

It is a joke! HKers know CCP always spend many money to play 'information war on internet' to make the fake news let China rewrite the history and make a global leader in the world when they process WuhanCoronaVirus

Not working

The CCP is just shameless liar CCPVirus CCPLiedPeopleDied MakeCCPPay

China is not a leader of anything, it's simply because western countries unexpectedly screwed up. 都是同行衬托得好。You just failed to handle it and can't accept the fact that a third world country did better, so you have to convince yourself and find something to blame for.

And we shouldn't let it succeed, by remembering the history.

They can try but the world already knows what CCP is like under its glorious image: full of lies, double standards, greed...

💩💩💩💩

zilbellaEchi How, by sending medical supplies to other countries that doesn't work?

Surprise? CCP has always been doing this for everything unflavored to it, such as the Tienanmen massacre, genocide in Xinjiang and paramilitary oppression in Hong Kong The only solution of CCP to problems is to discredit the victims and rewrite the history

China must be punished

paulhunghk1001 Not going to happen.

Yet twitter did NOTHING to stop these propaganda accounts

Well, if you let your dogs out you’re the guilty one. Chinese Wuhan virus is the first thing made with quality in China without third party observers, maybe. China must take responsibility, confess for the horror it has made in the world and serve other nations as communists say.

KenjiEndo6 CCPLiedPeopleDied WHOLiedPeopleDied
