A foreign blogger shared such a picture on his social account with more than 2.4 million followers: "In **, he stood under the fluttering five-star red flag, and the words "always follow the party" behind him were particularly eye-catching.
His name is Jackson Hinkle, 24, an American political commentator and social influencer, and one of the most influential users of the X (formerly Twitter) platform at the moment.
After arriving in China, Hinkel not only visited the site of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China, but was also invited to be one of the first Americans to visit Huawei after the U.S. ban was enacted.
Some people may suspect that this is another gringo trying to catch the "traffic password", but in fact it is not. Hinkel does not have any personal accounts in China, has been active on foreign platforms, and he rarely even mentions China in his social media accounts. The reason why he came to China this time is because of his own special beliefs.
In the United States, Hinkel was described as an "American conservative Marxist-Leninist". He himself has not only publicly expressed his admiration for "communism" many times, but has also called on his fans not to vote for those who "oppose China".
Doesn't "American" and "communism" sound bizarre? In fact, not only does the United States have communist parties, but they were founded two years before our Chinese Communist Party. In the first half of the 20th century, the Communist Party of America was the largest and most influential political party in the United States. It's just that due to its own internal problems and the suppression of capitalism, it is long gone. Today, there are about 5,000 members left in the party, and their influence is very limited.
During his trip to China, Hinkel shared several posts praising China, which unsurprisingly "stabbed a hornet's nest" and was immediately besieged by many Western bloggers and anti-China forces.
Someone quickly jumped out under the comments, and they were still talking about those old words.
You must be a childcare hired in China. ”
If you are an American and say that communism is good, China will definitely give you money. ”
There are also those who inexplicably "buckle their hats" directly below, saying that China has not provided any help to Gaza.
Whether it is speaking at the United Nations or humanitarian aid, China has been trying to lend a helping hand, but the question is will you in the West report it?
As for those comments of "anti-thieves" and "colonizers", they are even more physiologically uncomfortable, so they will not be sent out, so as not to dirty everyone's eyes.
It can be seen from this that Hinkel's behavior of getting close to China and preaching "communism" is naturally very unpopular in foreign countries controlled by the West, but he still did it. What everyone doesn't know is that Hinkel was able to accumulate more than 2 million fans on the X platform, relying on his unique way of doing things.
If you talk about Hinkel's remarks, it can be said to be a "strange flower" in the Western ** environment.
As early as the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian war, Hinkel claimed that Ukraine's Zelensky was building Ukraine into a "fascist and dystopian country", he believed that Ukraine and Zelensky held a "neo-Nazi ideology", and Russia's "invasion" was a choice made as a last resort, and Zelensky would suffer the same outcome as Osama bin Laden.
He began exposing the disinformation published by Ukraine on his personal channel, demanding that the West end its support for Ukraine.
With his own sharp views, his channel has become more and more influential, and the West's patience with him has reached its limit.
In order to silence Hinkel, they began to hype Hinkel himself as an outright "pro-Russian" and that his program was actually for "Putin propaganda". Major mainstream platforms began to ban his account, including the largest ** platform YouTube, live streaming platform Twitch, etc., which caused him to be basically in a state of being "**" on the Internet.
What the? "Freedom of speech" you say? Of course, the West has freedom of speech, and the reason for their ban on Hinkel is obviously "promoting disinformation".
I don't agree with your point of view = you're lying. "Freedom of speech" is understood by them.
Even though he was banned by major platforms, Hinkel still got the opportunity to participate in some TV shows by virtue of his relationships and the influence he had accumulated.
Everyone was expecting him to bow his head and admit his mistakes, thinking that he would admit it. As a result, Hinkel chose to directly face the mainstream of the West.
NATO is the creator of chaos, this organization should not exist! ”
The foreign policy of the West is in fact an 'empty shell of power'. ”
Syria's Bashar is a hero who was ordered in danger! ”
There is absolutely no brutal repression of the Uyghurs in China. ”
As a patriot, I oppose the imperialist foreign policy of the White House. ”
After this "indiscriminate bombardment", the TV stations were frightened, who dared to invite him. They treated Hinkel like a plague god. It's okay now, I can't speak on the Internet, I can't even get on TV, after a long time, do you really want to find out this person?
Just when Hinkel was "powerless to use", the man struck.
We are all familiar with who he is, it is none other than Elon Musk, the richest man in the world. He acquired Twitter, one of the largest foreign social platforms, for $44 billion, which was the platform used by Trump to be ridiculed by netizens as "Twitter governance", and changed its name to today's "X" platform.
Musk's reason for buying Twitter is that he feels that "free speech" in the United States is too hypocritical, and he wants to build a truly all-encompassing super app for free speech.
This wave of operations directly made Hinkel happy to blossom, and with the new position of the X platform, Hinkel completely let go of himself. You like to ban me, don't you? Now that there are always horses behind me, see what you can do to me?
With a completely different style of speech from the West, the number of fans on his X platform has grown significantly, from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, and finally reached its peak after the outbreak of the "Palestinian-Israeli conflict", with a rapid growth of more than two million. With an average of more than one million views per post, he has become one of the most influential bloggers on the "X" platform today.
What did he do? When Israel bombarded Gaza, and the West and Israeli officials still made a big fuss about Israel's attack by Hamas and continued to "sell miserably", Hinkel couldn't bear it anymore and stood up and spoke: "It is what you have done to the Palestinian people that has led to today's results. ”
For too long, Israel has controlled the economy, resources and even the lives of the people of Gaza. Hinkel decided to present the world with a real Gaza. So as soon as the Palestinian-Israeli conflict broke out, he began to continuously update the real picture from Gaza on his account.
He shows Gazan civilians struggling to survive in the rubble; It shows the reckless destruction and looting of Israeli forces in Gaza; The corpses of children lined up in hospitals in Gaza are displayed; It shows orphans who have lost their loved ones, parents who are crying bitterly while holding the corpse of their children.
In Hinkel's account, people saw the real Gaza under the brutality of the Israeli army. As the amount of ** is getting higher and higher, the spread is also becoming more and more widespread. More and more people in Western countries have begun to sympathize with Palestine and have organized movements to speak out for the Palestinian people.
In the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the West rarely reports real images of Gaza, and the Internet has been able to disseminate these images thanks to two platforms. One is Musk's X platform, and the other is very familiar to us, that is, the international version of Douyin "TikTok". A lot of what we see in China is also from these two platforms**, and I know why these Western countries like the United States have nothing to do and arrest TikTok and sanction it.
After Hinkel made such a big noise, he was naturally noticed by the Israeli authorities. But this is Musk's territory, and he can't seal it if he wants to. So I can only manually blacken it, and out of sight is clean. Anyway, everyone understands it, so they don't pretend to it, and directly "break the jar".
At this time, of course, Hinkel has to increase his efforts, in the past, you blocked me at every turn, "thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi", this time it is my turn. So he posted a lot of criticism and abuse of Israel on his account, and he was a mockery at Netanyahu, and he would be embarrassed if he didn't post it once a day.
Such a high-profile act has naturally been hated by Israel, a country that will repay the country. In retaliation, Israeli soldiers disgusted Hinkel by writing his name on a shell that was about to fall on Gaza.
As Hinkel's influence grew, so did the "conspiracy theories" about his identity. Some say that he is a Russian **, some say that he is a Chinese spy, and some even say that he is Hamas.
But in reality, Hinkel was an American through and through. Although he is only 24 years old, he already has a lot of experience. He started his political activities in the late 2010s and ran in elections a year after graduating from high school. In 2019 he ran in the San Clemente City Council special election. In this campaign, he advocated that the city of San Clemente have its own police department, and he was adamantly opposed to **legalization and proposed to combat the presence and influence of nuclear waste in the area. Although Hinkel ultimately lost the election, he also won nearly a third of the vote, and he has since participated in many political debates and television interviews.
Looking at Hinkel's achievements now, it can indeed be said that he is young and promising, and maybe one day his faith can really be realized in the United States.
