@Epicredeemer Communist propaganda? Really?
If anything, this Manhua ridicules the PRC even more than the west, from their propaganda ("Internet army", "communication satelite capable of self-defense" etc), to the omnipresent corruption and the oppression of ethnic minorities.
And I think there was also a Tiananmen reference where a guy with two plastic bags got eaten by a puppet, though that might also have been a different Manhua.
The only pro-chinese propaganda is that Daxia (=China) is supposedly the dominant world power. Though considering that other former powers like Juglansia (Germany) or the Demons (Japan, I guess - what other country do the Chinese accuse of both copying them and being cannibal devils?) seem to have just as little interest in messing with global politics as in real life, that seems realistic as well.

In fact, if all the American propaganda about China was true, the author (and several other Chinese authors I can think of) should have already been killed and used for growing silver flowers of eternal youth organ donations. If you tried publishing something like this in the west, you'd probably end up with your works banned or censored and "peaceful" protesters burning your house down - if you didn't get jailed for "inciting hatred", that is. Just think of Starshiptroopers, which even today is banned or censored in multiple western countries because of it's political content. And compared to Iron Ladies, Starshiptroopers is tame.

inb4 Juglansia is Russia:
Germans used to be the majority population in western Russia (and just about everywhere else west of the Ural and north of greece) until the 1920s deportations. Almost everything that's considered"Typically Russian" in the west has German origins. And the whole spiel about just wanting to be left alone, yet being forced into war time and time again, losing and finally having parts of the population side with the invaders fits Germany far better than Russia.
