The Chinese regime’s main mouthpiece has been passing off propaganda pieces as serious news items since time immemorial. Finally, like the boy who cried wolf, nobody believes that the propagandists could actually be joking on April Fools’ Day.
“April Fools’ Day doesn’t correspond with China’s traditional culture and core socialist values,” wrote Xinhua News Agency on its official Sina Weibo microblog account in the morning of April 1.
Hopefully everyone won't believe, create or spread rumors.
