Personal opinion, its a bit far fetched to think china would send people to do what they are doing outside the fucking white house, and not make sure they spoke english first. It would be such a sloppy way to do something i just dont see it. But at this point i wouldnt be surprised by anything.

During the Hong Kong protests before the virus they faked a video from the police saying that due to the escalating violence they would have to crack down. The video was supposedly made just after a police station was raided at 8pm local time. The police officers watch in the video showed 4 pm. Before the attack took place.

All this to say, Chinese ops aren't always well done

I would generally agree, especially re: the sloppiness. However, I wouldn't doubt that countries like China, Russia, North Korea, or Iran are actively looking how to exploit this situation and will activate sleeper cells... at a minimum. I'm reasonably certain that Iran's proxy of Hamas has had and continues to have some level of coordination with "Antifa" or similar communist groups. The same way that the USSR used communist and "community" groups in the 60s and 70s.

That the Chinese foreign ministry would even comment on this footage is a tell.

Make no mistake, China’s manufacturing capabilities are top notch in many cases. Sure, there is garbage and sure, they stole a lot of their tech from us, but they are very capable of making products well.

Its interesting, because we are supposedly expelling Chinese students and researchers that have ties to Chinese universities associated with the CPLA.

If those ties exist, then I wouldn't call it impossible that these individuals could/would act as sleeper cells.
