There's nothing quirky or friendly about this. They took a Chinese internet joke and tried to make China look like a dystopian society where even its sun bear in a zoo could be fake.
I thought punishing cats for being Russian was bad enough but punishing Paralympic athletes for being Russian really rips all proverbial liberal democracy masks off.
My outfit of choice to visit the Chinese Embassy.
Extravagant, impressive, vast spaces don’t make up for the crimes of the Chinese Communist Party including the ongoing
#UyghurGenocide
, brutal assaults and stripping of freedoms in Hong Kong, cultural genocide in Tibet, and more
My favourite part of this annual circlejerk is you only get old pictures and no updates on where student leaders are now. Not great for optics they're rich Republicans or accused of sexual assault I guess.
As ever for June 4th, this incredible picture of June 1989….. what a potential world was destroyed that day! The joy & the hope of China captured by (I think) Mark Avery of AP….
I'm sure it's just a coincidence, but not only is IS-K at war with Washington's official enemies Iran & Russia, but also staging ops against Washington's Adversary Number 1, China.
So IS-K is at war with America's 3 main adversaries. Weird how that works.
BBC reporter stood in Zhengzhou subway and said the water had stench of d**d bodies and people were left on platforms awaiting d**th. Why would Chinese ppl want to talk to them? They're lucky ppl didn't chase them out of the country.

I also remember when a Reddit AITA repost abt a guy getting really mad at his gf for making a chocolate vanilla birthday cake instead of a pure chocolate cake like he requested and everyone got really mad at the gf.
A Japanese ultranationalist kills it's ultranationalist leader. White ppl on twitter: we are extremely concerned about Chinese nationalists celebrating his death 😥
Maid cafés have been controversial in China ever since the industry first started to take off, with detractors arguing that they degrade women and in some cases become hotbeds of sexual harassment.
It's not lost on me how supportive the West was of China during the early chaotic reform and opening-up years but now that China has gained enough economic sovereignty to set its own rules to improve Chinese ppl's lives, there's industrial anti-China being cranked out every day.
Am I the only one laughing at the fact that Christine Lee immigrated from Hong Kong to the UK as a kid, pre-handover, is a citizen, has a son with last name, Wilkes, and they're all calling her a Chinese spy?
You: young ppl in China don't know about June 4 bc of censorship.
Young ppl in China: it's a good thing the leaders made the right decisions wrt June 4 or we'd become _____ country.
I can't be the only one who remember this guy made a video saying China is doing settler colonialism in Xinjiang and compared Han Chinese to NA yt ppl, giving fresh blood to the most annoying Western leftists to renew their cHyNa BaD screed. The video is still up.
Found this picture on Weibo, a massive chemical spill on Feb 3 in E'hai'e county, Meiguo. Wtf is going on in China why isn't our news talking about this
It might surprise pro-China ppl that Chinese ppl in China have plenty of grievances about their life and many think it's the govts responsibility but they still support the govt
Idk why Twitter algorithm sends me a lot of Japanese Twitter discourse but for the last 12 months or so they have not hided how much they hate White tourists and weebs seem to be clueless about it.
Unlike "Israelis" and "Jews," currently we don't have distinct English words for "Chinese as a citizenship" and "Chinese as an ethnicity." This will increasingly be a problem as the political tension keeps rising. Language shapes the way we think.
China’s FM Wang Yi has called for Houthi attacks on shipping vessels in the Red Sea to come to an end, following a meeting with his Yemeni counterpart in Beijing, says the country’s Foreign Ministry.

Noticing ppl in the West equating drones as military equipment bc of how it's been used in the West but in fact in China, it's heavily used in search & rescue, farming and even internet satellite dish during a flood.

Chinese culture/history is not linear. Modernization is not westernization, it is part of poverty alleviation. Ppl making fun of China for being backwards are actually for the most part making fun of poverty.

We have corrected it and posted the new video here:
The Chinese woman's homeless TikTok triggered a lot of nerves from diff anti-china/anti-cpc groups.
"You said China is doing this one thing better than the US? Well China is still flawed! 🧵 1/20"
Hui ppl are not ethnically (Han) Chinese wtf is wrong with Westerners speaking on things they don't know anything on. Their revolts during Qing dynasty were so bloody, going both ways, it's still an awkward topic now.
you're telling me that the han ethnostate is treating ethnically chinese practitioners of islam who are loyal to the state differently to a peripheral turkic minority with national aspirations. I'm hearing this for the first time
White people under every Chinese official tweet about Palestine: what about Uyghurs??
Awkward. The Uyghur dissidents already released statements supporting Israel, it's pretty clear you don't care abt the Uyghurs enough to even check on them.
Chinese "influencers" film themselves spitting at Tokyo's Yasukuni Shrine:
Nationalistic Japanese netizens have been sharing various clips of Chinese content creators appealing to their nationalistic Chinese fans by spitting at or inside the war shrine.
Hello Chinese and Pakistani trolls!
Pls stop reporting this tweet and thread in an attempt to censor my support for Baloch resistance against Pak/China occupation of Balochistan.
Twitter says it doesnt violate any rules of the platform 🙄
Hui noodle shop owners moved their team to provide 1000 bowls of free Lanzhou soup noodle everyday for those affected by the Sichuan earthquake. The wife is going thru cancer and said she'll keep moving as long as she can ❤️❤️

Btw her mom likely denounced Chinese citizenship after taking state funded scholarship to study abroad (and these are usually conditioned on a return to China & help build China)
The Israeli government has revealed that it made several attempts to involve China in the rescue of Noa Argamani. That is because her mother is of Chinese origin. But they ignored all pleas from Israel. One Chinese official reportedly told an Israeli negotiator that they can't
It's normal to get approached by a homeless person for food/money/drinks/bus fare in Toronto. They are not trying to harm you. If you have nothing to offer them, not even some basic human exchange, just move on. If you become completely paranoid, even hostile, stay in your burbs.
The US forced the Chinese entity owning the LGBTQ dating app Grindr to sell it. This kept people safe — Beijing is an explicitly anti-gay autocracy. That it had access to data of LGBTQ communities around the world could literally kill people. A TikTok divestment has precedent.
The typical example is China: Han Chinese are native to East Asia, but they're still colonizers when they invaded Korea, Vietnam, Xinjiang, Taiwan, Hongkong, etc. One of them isn't "more indigenous" because they have "more real culture" or because aspects of their culture....

The country’s authoritarian regime has become increasingly repressive in recent years, particularly under the rule of Xi Jinping.
