Politics TechnologyThey are on American soil, thousands of kilometers away from Beijing, but they are still being persecuted and harassed by the Chinese government. Journalist Jiayang Fan says she was overwhelmed by the threatening messages.
She has been the target of online threats since she covered pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong four years ago. More than 12 thousand messages on “Twitter” call him a traitor.
It is a coordinated effort with fake and anonymous accounts and this campaign is considered a spy camouflage.
“From the dimensions we can say that it is the largest disinformation network in the world,” said Darren Linvill, a professor at Clemson University.
Professor Linvill has been tracking the camouflaged spies for years, but has only now discovered that the vast disinformation campaign is linked to the Chinese government. “Thousands and thousands of messages are constantly repeated”, he said.
CNN’s review of court documents, social media reports and interviews with victims reveal a massive campaign of intimidation by the Chinese government targeting people on American soil.
“They threatened to kill me if I didn’t close my YouTube account,” said Jiajun Qiu, a former professor in China who lives in the US.
He released pro-democracy videos criticizing the Chinese government from his office in Virginia, responding to thousands of threatening tweets.
An extensive campaign of intimidation, which also involved artists to create original illustrations to haunt the victims.
“It’s a sophisticated effort. I’m shocked at the number of platforms where we come across this content,” said Linvill.
The US Department of Justice says some of the people behind this scare campaign are Chinese police. But a spokesman for the Beijing embassy in the US said that these accusations of American justice are fabricated and politically motivated as it claims that there is no concrete evidence.
Activist Chen Pokong says that during the pandemic, he organized a Zoom meeting with democracy supporters, in which Chinese police officers also entered, blocking the signal. The US State Department warns that the Chinese government is spending billions of dollars every year to manipulate information abroad. If this is not opposed, it can give a new shape to the global panorama of information.
“The blood of a communist party is propaganda,” said James Rubin, DASH special representative.

SportsOne of the most naturally talented and exciting young and unbeaten fighters around, Vergil Ortiz will finally make his return to the ring in January, when he will move up from 147 to 154 pounds. RingTV.com reports that Ortiz, 19-0(19) and, before his enforced layoff of almost 18-months one of the best welterweights out there, will face Fredrick Lawson in Las Vegas on January 6th. Health problems plagued the 25 year old, with Ortiz suffering from a condition called rhabdomyolysis, and with Ortiz reportedly fainting in his dressing room prior to his ill-fated fight with Eimantas Stanionis (this a match up that was scheduled to happen no less than three times, only for it to fall apart, once due to Stanionis undergoing surgery for an appendectomy).
But now, promoter Oscar De La Hoya says Ortiz of Texas is ready to “come back stronger than ever to become a world champion.” “He’s got the heart and dedication, ans is on a mission to be a world title holder,” De La Hoya told Ring. “I know he will make a statement in this new division against the powerful warrior from Ghana in Fredrick Lawson. Golden Buy will be starting 2024 with a bang, and we’re proud to have Vergil launch our action-packed boxing schedule for the year.”
While fans may be disappointed to see Ortiz leave the 147 pound division (for the time being at least, perhaps for good, we will have to wait and see), he will no doubt make an exciting addition to the 154 pound weight division – imagine, for one exciting potential fight, Ortiz against Tim Tszyu. Against Lawson, 30-2(22), Ortiz will face a pretty tough guy who has good experience. 34 year old Lawson is also coming off two good wins. Lawson has been a pro since 2011 and he knows his way around a ring. Ortiz, who last fought in August of 2022, when he stopped Michael McKinson in the ninth round, will almost certainly be rusty in his ring return, and this could prove somewhat dangerous against the man from Accra who now lives in Chicago.
That said, if he has put all his medical issues firmly behind him and if Ortiz is now 100 percent fit and ready to fight, he should do away with Lawson, most likely inside the distance (Lawson has been stopped in each of his three defeats). Most of all, it will be great to see Ortiz back in the ring. Against Maurice Hooker and Egidijus Kavaliauskas, Ortiz impressed us all and he was closing in on a world title shot. Can Ortiz make up for lost time in a big way next year?

EntertainmentIt’s not the first or last time a movie has had an unsettling effect on people, but it rarely causes viewers to give up before the end.
Films like The Witch, Hereditary and Midsommar are proof that production company A24 is rarely wrong when it comes to horror films, and a large number of viewers of last year’s horror film Men, directed by Alex Garland for A24, would agree with this.
Alex Garland is best known for the acclaimed sci-fi film Ex Machina, for which he received an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay.
Garland also wrote the screenplay for Men, but this time it was met with criticism, as some critics were unhappy with the narrative structure of his horror.
The Man follows widow Harper, played by Jessie Buckley, who goes on vacation to a nearby village after her husband commits suicide. Although the vacation was supposed to be an opportunity to heal, her life turns into a nightmare because she is constantly surrounded by men from the village who bear the same face. All the men were played by Rory Kinnear.
Men viewers took to Xu (Twitter) to report that the film was so disturbing that some audience members left the theater during the screening.
Garland’s film Men received a 69% from Rotten Tomatoes critics, while IMDb viewers gave it a 6.1 out of 10.
