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.
It led me to watching this video: https://youtu.be/xD1nDGeiSAs
Thanks.
(of course I get a downvote ...)
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.
