      no they don’t. they acknowledge it a lot more than we here in the us have acknowledged the centuries of horror towards the Indigenous people whose land we stole and whose children we sent to resident schools (death camps). the reason it’s not that big of a deal is because it wasn’t a “massacre” as western media has claimed (without evidence). there were hospitalizations, but unlike the US police state, they don’t kill unarmed peaceful protestors.

    I lived in Beijing for 6 months and have had WeChat on my phone for nearly 2 years now. Any extended stay in the country unfortunately seems to necessitate using the app. I only used cash on two occasions, and both times it was treated like I handed them Monopoly money. I’ve done my best to limit the information I’ve shared on the app, but it’s hard to not feel uncomfortable about what data or metadata it may collect from the rest of my phone. Most of my Chinese friends use VPNs, but for people like my old host family or others I met in China, WeChat is the only way I can reach them and so I’ve been hesitant to get rid of the damn app.

    I find it hilarious that the CCP is producing english language rap song about how great they are because it shows such a vast disconnect between them and the American rap industry. Rap in the US is born from struggle and protest, and even now, where rap is often times more focused on presenting a level of descendant wealth that is hard to even comprehend, those songs are still about achieving that wealth despite the government and society you live in trying to prevent it.
    Even the most over the top, hedonistic party rap trash still includes antiestablishment themes. So the fact that the CCP thinks they can influence western youth through propaganda rap is utterly ridiculous, considering that the entire foundation of rap, no matter how pro consumerism it may be, is fucking off the chain hilarious. They clearly have absolutley zero idea about how actual Westerners live and view the world, but for good and for bad.

The main difference in corporations in China when compared to America is that where American corporations have large influence in government, Chinese companies are used as an extension of the government. Corporate capitalism vs state capitalism. It's really all kinda the same thing, the money is just flowing the opposite direction. Opinions incoming..

    Blimps would be a legit video. Travel by airship making a resurgence would take a chunk out the evil cruise industry AND the airline industry simultaneously. All while making an exponentially smaller carbon footprint.

    Damn this video was so well put together that I deleted 4 years of memory in school to engrave it in

      Thanks for posting the dislikes count, I can't read it for myself.
      Funnily enough, this would have passed as sarcasm a few months ago. Thanks, TH-cam!

    The John Cena bit was actually out of context. 5 seconds later in the actual “apology” video, you immediately realize the apology is completely satirical and John Cena was just cranking up another middle finger to the CCP. Mad respect for Cena’s big dick energy.
