      It's a authoritarian dictatorship that goes way too privately into their citizens ans anyone other then Han Chinese just like nazi Germany, add their disgusting human right abuses like the rape and forced brainwashing concentration camps of Muslims that they invaded back in 40s 50s
      Now imagine being a Asian country dealing with em or being abused pacific nation like Australia NZ and poorer Island nations. I'm not surprised from what his been saying
      This is why We need to deal with China Russia Iran NK first before dealing with congress parliament and big Ben or else they'll use the left and right to cripple us before they take over

      Also it saddens Me that China is so abused amd used and polluted and pisened by the current regime, I feel bad for those who actually care and want freedom and have China at a respectable population and not overgrown like India
      As a Aussie and with 26 Mil population, when China India gets too overpopulated it affects everyone and the risks of diseases viruses and shit as well as food shortages and energy and resource shortages doesn't help smaller country's to grow
      It sounds wrong but when shit hit the fans ut doesn't go well for everybody, The moon and Mars ain't fully terraformed and colonised so We don't have a second chance
      This is why populations need to be limited and spread out so a rock doesn't take half of humanity with it, there's like 3 billion that would die if 2 rocks hit China India so try minus that from the world
      It doesn't sound a great way to go out and seeing family and things that make a Indian in Australia Indian as their culture history politics food music etc
      If you understand My POV and see the reasons I'm concerned with India and China being so overpopulated and not letting other poorer countries can't grow population because of others taking more space in the train that has limited space

Basically in China there's this legal representative who will be sued and jailed if the company does something VERY wrong, and everyone else in the company can get away with anything as long as he pins it on the company. And then ofc you will see companies hiring legal representatives, weirdly doesn't need ANY working experiences and pay a pretty high salary....and everyone knows exactly what's the actual job requirement.

      Throw in fake COVID positive test status lit up on Chinese people trying to flee China during increasing lockdowns, genocide of Uyghurs, social credit scores and their overreaching undercover police stations found in foreign countries under Operation Fox Hunt....the Chinese govt is horrifying.

    A couple notes, their are two types of educational path a kid can take.
    1: Domestic
    2: International
    If you chose the first path you will have the most competitive experience you can imagine, you will study when you sleep.
    Or
    2: International
    Which is the path I took, pretty much an more expensive alternative that gives you a normal primary to high school experience since you’ll apply internationally. Hence my sexy English fluency.
    It’s not all competitive, but most are.

      Also a correction, the “he, and she” is pronounced the same, but they are differently written, 他 and 她, left one is he, right one is she, she has a 女, and many words with this part are feminine and targets more female. So no, they are not all non binary.

      Thirdly, yes, a lot of Japanese racism are targeted. That is a fact, there are even slurs invented to call Japanese, “Japanese terrorist.” A lot of shows are made where the Japanese are antagonists. The reason goes back pretty far to ww2 and the Japanese expansion, a lot of people died from Japan’s invasion, such as the Rape of NanJing. We didn’t have the force at the time to defend ourselves and no other country tried to help us. So a lot of resentment still carries on to this day.

    I just wanted to say thank you real quick Azeal. You have a lot more will than I and your ability to persevere is something I truly admire. I'm still young, probably a little too young to be learning how awful some aspects of the world are without adding another mental illness to my collection of adjectives. But the fact that I can hear these tragedies at all is incredible, and it's because of you. I would rather see the world as it is than as the lies that those before me tell so I remain fuel in their machine.
    Your videos, this catalog of perspectives, are seeds of truth that would otherwise be discarded, forgotten, or destroyed. I'm looking forward to the day yours among many others, maybe even my own, bloom and things change. And when they do I'll make sure to water and fight to protect them, one petal at a time.

    The best way to describe how china is A Giant Contradiction. But in a bad way.
    My family has had Chinese exchange students before. They had a two week special programs for it. they go to homes in pairs, and have a firm scedual. It was verry interested talking to them. We mostly talked to the girl pair we had. It was verry bazare hearing how they were in college, and how they got there. Like one had the major she wanted because she was lucky enough to get out into it. Wile the other wanted to go to this other major but wasn’t put in. By the way they described it, it sounded more random versus being a “best fit” or didn’t make it kind of thing. They were content about it tho… or at least kept the face up for that. It was also interesting hearing how they didn’t really have family dinners as a way to be a family, just kinda how it was. This was years ago so my memory is a little hazy, it had somthing mentioned on how they wouldn’t really go back home and prepare or have dinner with the family as a familial thing. It was certainly interesting…
    As for all countries with intense governments, love the people, don’t love the government. :D

    Hey, by the way, if this person has Chinese parents or grandparents, around the world China is apparently setting up these secret police kind of locations, that act as police outside of China, and if you say anything bad about the government outside of China, they'll commit to beating the shit out of you under the guise of a job interview or a social check-up or something, it's been happening in Europe for some 6 months now and they only do it if they see you as "Chinese", meaning if your parents or grandparents are such, they still see you as part of the Empire.
    Also not many people know, but in Japan the court system is even much worse than this, 99% of the time you end up in jail, it's not even worth fighting the legal fight.
    Another thing that's not well-explained a lot of the time is why the Chinese haven't let go of the thing with Japan, Japan never apologized for their war crimes in China, nor for invading it. They just pretended everything was okay because they lost the war. Likewise, the Chinese government has, in the last decades, emphasized Nationalistic and escalatory rethoric towards Taiwan, as a way to get people riled up and that has the consequence of also galvanizing them against Japan for obvious reasons. Also galvanizes them against "Western" countries, the Empires of old, because of the whole situation with the Opium crisis and the century of humiliation as they call it. It's much easier to control a nation when you have these kinds of petty squabbles, people you can point to outside and inside your society who are "attacking" it.
    Those are just my thoughts as I listened

    When I imagine just how different China would be with the original Taiwanese government, with all its flaws, it fills me with sadness. But there is also hope, Chinese people are becoming increasingly liberal and better educated, and it is much harder to hide information now with the internet. I hope the communist party collapses under its own weight.

    I can explain the Ma thing, its actually very common even in Hong Kong. I grew up with the internet, and learn english by literally watching ppl scream at video game. And It had almost entirely replaced my native language ANYWAY. "Ma" thing like he had explain, is someting use to emphsis the severity of the scold of the sentence. Its like a extra kick. It can be good, sacastic or even in a joke. Its a extra kick for every contxt of a sentence. "Hoyaaa" is the same thing.
    Please dont ask me for Chinese, I can barely speak cantonses and even having to force to learn Chinese, i still dont understand it. I am very tone deaf in just that language.
