Look the Chinese actively spread propaganda on social media chatgroups etc. ...so what?
There is American propaganda...there is PAP propaganda and so on
The govt already has power rto remove falsehoods. so what is is actually bias views beliefs ...that forms propaganda.
A lot of the China propaganda is aimed at Chinese speaking who are emotionally elevated by rise of Chjna because they feel proud to be part of this and will do and say anything to support China because part of their being is is connected to China's.
No law or control can stop this. Even if you block they will go and look for pro china material because they feel good watching and reading this type of thing.
Similarly the govt cannot stop one segment of our population that look to up the west and endear themselves to western values and rights. This propaganda come in through movies TV and in many ways that cannot be stopped.
The best thing to do is have citizens that are critical in thought. So they know what the grey areas are.
Problem is the PAP govt itself also use alot of propaganda and does not like criticism....hence they prefer obedient unquestioning citizens....which make the citizens vulnerable to foreign propaganda....something they now want to block..so that only their own propaganda ca exist. Something like China but not as bad.
