Truthout has a recent article titled “The Left Can Support Protesters in China Without Shilling for US Imperialism” with a subtitle asserting that “Chinese workers and Uyghurs need solidarity from leftists worldwide,” and it at no point attempts to defend either one of those titular claims.
You’re Not Actually Helping When You “Support” Protesters In Empire-Targeted Nations
Truthout interviews Rebecca E Karl, for the above-linked article. She works for NGOs/non-profits affiliated with George Soros and John D. Rockefeller 3rd (Rockefeller Foundation). As for Naomi Klein, she was ‘compromised’ even before coronavirus as covered by Cory Morningstar. I can’t find anything on the Jacobin author, as his name (pseudonym?!) is the same as the deceased Iranian poet and journalist Khosrow Golsorkhi. The GrayZone covered Jacobin, previously.

ChinaFile is an online magazine published by the Center on U.S.-China Relations at Asia Society, dedicated to promoting an informed, nuanced, and vibrant public conversation about China, in the U.S. and around the world.
According to their website: “The Asia Society was founded in 1956 by John D. Rockefeller 3rd to foster understanding between Asians and Americans,” and currently has a annual budget of $22 million.
John D. Rockefeller 3rd (1906-1978), according to his Rockefeller University biography, was “born in New York City on March 21, 1906, the eldest son of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and Abby Aldrich Rockefeller. He was the brother of Abby Mauze, and Nelson A. Rockefeller, Laurance Rockefeller, David Rockefeller, and Winthrop Rockefeller.

“In December 1929, Rockefeller, who had been reared to assume the lead role in his generation’s philanthropic endeavors, began working in his father’s office at 26 Broadway in New York City. He immersed himself in the operations of the many institutions associated with the family and became a board member or officer of the Rockefeller Foundation, the General Education Board, the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research (now The Rockefeller University), Colonial Williamsburg, and the China Medical Board, among others.
…
“In July 1942, Rockefeller joined the Navy. He served with the rank of lieutenant commander in the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations and worked in an interagency task force devoted to planning postwar policy for Japan. Rockefeller was released from active duty in 1945 but his wartime experience led to his appointment as a cultural consultant to John Foster Dulles during the Japanese peace treaty negotiations. His broad assignment to consider ways to improve U.S.- Japan relations fostered his deep interest in Japan and in all of Asia. Rockefeller came to love the country, its culture, and its people, so much so that Japan became a second home to Rockefeller and his wife. It was during this time, the latter 1940s, that he and his wife began collecting Asian art, albeit on an intermittent and amateur basis.
John Foster Dulles was a lawyer for big business and United States Secretary of State under President Dwight D. Eisenhower from 1953 to 1959. Together with his brother Allen Welsh Dulles, who led the CIA, he was a significant figure in the early Cold War era, advocating an aggressive stance against communism throughout the world.
…
He spent considerable time building up NATO as part of his strategy of controlling Soviet expansion by threatening massive retaliation in event of a war.
…
Dulles upset non-aligned countries when on 9th June, 1955, he spelled out the US foreign policy that no independence would be allowed, that “neutrality has increasingly become an obsolete and except under very exceptional circumstances, it is an immoral and shortsighted conception.”
One of his first major policy shifts towards a more aggressive position occurred in March 1953, when Dulles supported Eisenhower’s decision to direct the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), then headed by his brother Allen Dulles, to draft plans to overthrow the Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh of Iran. This led directly to the coup d’état via Operation Ajax in support of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, who became the Shah of Iran.
The same year Dulles participated in the instigation of a military coup by the Guatemalan army through the CIA on behalf of United Fruit Company, claiming that the democratically-elected President Jacobo Árbenz’s government was veering toward communism. Dulles had previously represented the United Fruit Company as a lawyer, while his brother, CIA Director Allen Dulles, was on the company’s board of directors. Thomas Dudley Cabot, former CEO of United Fruit, held positions of director of International Security Affairs in the State Department. John Moore Cabot, a brother of Thomas Dudley Cabot, was secretary of Inter-American Affairs during much of the coup planning in 1953 and 1954.
