“The intelligence community, their assessment – and it’s a high-confidence assessment – [is] that there was no intelligence collection by that balloon,” Milley said, confirming China’s assertion that the balloon was blown off course.
U.S. handwringing over the balloon brought China ties to a new low, and exposed the warmongering lust of the neocon 🤡 show steering Washington’s foreign policy.
I’m very sorry that you aren’t able to understand what the stories I post actually say in black and white. Just to emphasize the point once again, US has produced ZERO evidence to substantiate the conspiracy theory that this was a spy balloon. US military has now admitted that the balloon did not collect any data or send anything to China. Yet, we still have people like you running around trying to pretend that this was a spy balloon.
I understand it’s hard to accept that you’ve guzzled propaganda and now it makes you feel stupid to admit that you’ve been had so easily.

One of us certainly can’t.
It’s ok, I understand english is hard for you. It’s confusing where the author of the article states their thought (it wasn’t spying) and the chairman of the JCS says “it was a spy balloon, it just couldn’t gather any data” is hard to follow.
The fact that the Chinese spy balloon couldn’t collect any data just shows the quality of manufacturing I guess. That or they need to work on their ability to steal technology to get it to work for them. Who knows. What it doesn’t make it is “a so called spy balloon”.
I’d say the person who can’t actually digest the article which boils down to:
It was a spy balloon
That couldn’t actually do its’ job
And apparently couldn’t be controlled
would be the one “guzzling propaganda”
Or you know the obvious answer that it wasn’t actually a spy balloon and you’re easily convinced of nonsense because it fits with your racist views. It’s easier for you to accept that China can’t manufacture a spy device because of that. Also, this may shock you, but China has spy satellites and doesn’t need to use balloons. The fact that you even think this story is plausible further highlights your view that Chinese are some primitive barbarians using balloons for spying.
The most hilarious part here is how you just keep doubling down on this acting all smug. Once again, there is zero evidence for your conspiracy theory, but you keep on digging there.
It’s funny how you always jump to everyone being racist. Project much? You should be better than that.
The fact you consider the Chinese primitive barbarians is pretty telling on your racism. Personally, I’d think a high tech solution that you might believe is undetectable would be a fantastic way to gather information, since satellites tend to travel in known trajectories so you can cover up anything interesting when you know they’ll be in the sky. You really need to check that racism there.
Nope, not acting smug, just trying to help you understand that you misread the article.
Your statement:
“Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley told CBS News today that the so-called Chinese spy balloon that flew over the U.S. seven months ago wasn’t spying at all. (cbsnews.com)”
The two statements from that actual Chairmain of the JCS in the article:
“The intelligence community, their assessment – and it’s a high-confidence assessment – [is] that there was no intelligence collection by that balloon,”
and
“I would say it was a spy balloon that we know with high degree of certainty got no intelligence, and didn’t transmit any intelligence back to China.”
I get you have problems understanding that, since it doesn’t fit your narrative. I’m just trying to help you.
Not everyone, just actual racists saying racist things the way you are.
I’m not the one claiming that China isn’t able to make a working spy balloon or that it has to steal tech from the west. You’re the one saying these things.
A weather balloon is not an undetectable solution for gathering information. It’s also pretty clear that the balloon is very easily detectable given that it was tracked all the way. Love how you’re just making up nonsense here as usual.
Nope, I’m just dealing with the actual facts that the article reports.
I have no problem understanding the fact that US military has not been able to produce any evidence to support the spy balloon conspiracy theory. You are though.
It’s funny how you think you’re in position to help anyone when you can’t even able to separate factual information from the narrative. Sad really.
The amount of copium you transmit is incredible. I hope you one day get some help.
The only one transmitting copium here is the one who’s making stuff up to avoid admitting the facts the article reports. Please stop projecting.
If you’re so dead set on it being a conspiracy theory, why are you posting articles that debunk your own claim?
It’s amazing how you’re completely unable to separate facts from the fiction. The facts are that the balloon didn’t collect or transmit ant information. The fiction is the spin the US regime keeps trying to put on the story. Anybody who’s not severely mentally challenged can separate the two.
