by You have to be very careful on twitter if you put out positive tweets about China, and always be civil, to never swear, or use swear words with an asterisk in, or use a v instead of a u, because if you do hundreds of paid Hong Kong trolls may complain to twitter to get your account closed down. People swear all the time on twitter, and are abusive, but a lot of people have to complain first before twitter suspends an account. The Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI) is infamous for churning out anti-China propaganda in Australia.It pumps out a "one-sided, pro-American view of the world," said Bob Carr, former premier of the New South Wales.

ANTI-CHINA PROPAGANDA
About two weeks ago, Twitter removed thousands of pro-China accounts following a study by the ASPI.
An article on iTWire, an Australian IT and telecommunications news website, said "ASPI runs a hawkish line on China in a bid to hype up the fear index and make it possible for its donors to sell more weapons to countries in the Asia-Pacific region."
"This is an old strategy," said the article written by Sam Varghese. "It was used by the U.S. in the Middle East and still is."
John Menadue, a former diplomat and ex-Qantas CEO, said the ASPI "lacks integrity and brings shame to Australia."
"Think of how insidious that is," said Geoff Raby in the AFR article. "When the U.S. wages a war, the military industrial complex benefits."
