Listen comrade, you know China isn't some dreamland full of happy wealthy people, it's got huge numbers of poor, starving people, young people stricken with cancer, disease, bulldozers, you name it. They're ran by an uncaring party, who are turning the screws on the population who are rebelling and dying.
I know you know. And now you know I know you know. Your little pink act is tired.
tbf if america had 3x the people it'd far worse than china.
Yeah, by China, because they're a totalitarian state that doesn't allow their people to not like them.
This isn't rocket science. You just need to up your understanding level, comrade.

Their grip is so embedded that they intimidate Chinese dispora in other countries, and on that basis, what would have to gain by being honest about what dislike about the government and have only hardship if you confront them.
