I think when they say people "shill for the ccp" what they mean is "you accept payment from this evil bad country in order to lie for them."

It's a moral statement. It both dismisses the argument from the "ccp shill" while also reinforcing the idea that the west alone cares about morality at all. It is such a common argument because it doesn't just allow someone to ignore their opponent, but also soothes them, insisting that they are on the "right side of history" and the only people who disagree with them are cartoonishly evil, doing things they know are wrong just for the money.

Absolutely, it's the highest stage of cope where they insist that nobody could possibly genuinely believe what you're saying, so you're just reading a script because you're paid to do so.

I think it goes back to things we've talked about before, with libs insisting that those "other countries" are worse in every way. Their worldview involves following a script, so tankies must really follow a script, extra, extra hard.

(Also, damn you are popular today, you keep getting a ton of likes on everything. I'll hit refresh and a comment will go from 5 or so to over 20.)

Completely agree, and yeah dunno what's with so many upvotes today. Don't think I've said anything profound. :)
