Misinformation spreads in China on ‘civil war’ in Texas
Chinese social media cheers intensifying standoff between Texas and the White House over illegal migrants.

Media messaging has made the idea of civil war more believable, as Chinese state media have regularly suggested that political divisions in the US are now so polarised that the country has reached the brink of internal conflict.
And they are not far off. Every political issue has become a divider. There is no more civil discourse in discussion. No more shared unity between differences of opinion.
All of this greatly exasperated by social media. All the while the 1 % running both the Democrats and Republicans are lining their pockets even more.
To be entirely fair, what civil discourse can you have around "We want to make bloodsport of murdering these people." vs "Maybe just let people have basic rights."
