Re: You didn't misunderstand, I don't think. (none / 1)

It may not be personal, I read it as "lie [of the PRC]". It may also be a poorly picked word (i.e. instead of "falsehood") from someone not with English as first languege like you and redstar. So I won't flag it as FP.

I'd buy that if anything I said in the comment he was responding to in any way made referenced to, or was sourced from, PRC press, government statements and whatnot.

Understood english as second language, something i deal with all the time, but i don't think that's what was going on here.
