    We can’t afford bread and they’re trying to ban the circus

    This was the obvious progression

    The real kick in the nuts is that we get to see that the average Chinese can afford groceries and has disposable income for entertainment, and just in general doesn’t have the insane monetary burdens we have here.

      Are you high or sth? The chinese are getting as much extorted as you do, the system of it just differs. Chona got a huge homelessness problem they try to hide from their own people (because officially homelessness was “eradicated” years ago according to propaganda). The worker extortion is brutal and child labour a big problem as well. However, you won’t see anything outspokenly crticial about those systemic problems im China on RedNote or sth., their deletion and suppression algorithms are extremely well tuned. Also they got stuff like neighborhood watch and other means of systemic social suppression who’ll be alerted of “problematic people” if you post (too much) criticism. Or of course police, in case you really annoy them or happen to be the wrong ethnicity.

        Hey, child, we can prove you and your state dept propaganda wrong now.

        You really should delete this obvious and easily disproven misinformation.
