I kinda hate social media. It gives me anxiety and people make all sorts of assumptions from like a single comment.
The good parts are just seeing a random comment like this and then reading up on this. Like, I know very little about Chinese history despite being Chinese (ethnically) but growing up in the west myself.
And they opened the door for the world to humiliate them on their behavior. Lucky for them the USA was nice enough to return the favor and give China this unprecedented opportunity to look like the good guys on the world stage.
It’s important to remember China’s mindset is very much in the century of humiliation.

It’s worse than that.
Their cultural revolution and GLP caused EXTREME social paranoia.
Many are not stable, the damage caused a psychosis that causes them to distrust everyone and leads to self-destructive behavior.
The Taiwanese are an excellent contrast here, they are what the mainland should be, educated, happy, functional.
