Im not sure we should be listening to this guy of all people, but i cosign the message still
Why?
-Weaponizing tiktok to try and make his own people more educated and the rest of everyone stupid -Putting stupid laws disabling teens from playing videogames more than like a couple hrs a week -The whole thing where any chinese owned company has to report to ccp and lie if ever investigated -Didnt he call Islam a mental disease and put muslims in concentration camps? I agree with the first part but locking ppl up and torturing them is crazy -You know, the whole great firewall of china where you cant watch content from huge paltforms like youtube, arent religious books like quran and bible banned too? Imagine a world leader being so insecure you gotta ban a teddy bear cus you look like himπ
I could probably think of a bunch more or look some up, trust me, this guy aint it.
Religious books are not banned. There are millions of christians in China. There are millions of Muslims in China. Reducing hours of video game playing could greatly assist with insane amount of hours that come with game addiction. It probably needs workshopped more but I personally think this change in coordination with providing youth with solid after school programs and activities would be good for long-term health and well being. That TikTok thing is BS. People in China watch just as much brainrot on douyin. Winnie the Pooh is beloved by people in China. Literally go around for five minutes and you'll see his face plastered on shirts bags and as stuffed animals. As for the companies, this is good if true. Fuck companies doing whatever they want and hurting people. I hope they continue to have significant government oversight.
Xinjiang is a more complex situation but if you look into it all accusations of genocide come from one source, Adrian Zens. He's a CIA asset who claims god revealed to him that it's his mission to destroy China. I'm gonna listen to the Muslim countries (and the UN) that came and inspected the region and said nah it's chill.
Have you ever talked to someone from there? I have and just asking them about this shit is really useful for learning that 80 percent of this stuff is untrue, and 20 percent is misconstrued.
That's the thing, if a lie is a big as the ones you present here, everyone would know. Yet here we are and the average person from china will complain about a lot of things but never the things you brought up here.
Being obligated to send user information to any government while lying about it when investigated is objectively bad bruh what are u talking aboutπ also the gaming hours thing is just plain dystopian activity... can chinese people connect to youtube, fcebook, reddit etc? + can they openly criticize the establishment and discuss controversial topics like tiananmen square, tankman?. How legal are vpns and other privacy tools? Cant really complain about the government when any and all complaints can put you in danger.
Look man I'm not gonna respond to anymore of this stuff. I just want to point out that most of what you said the first time is untrue and then you just double down and list a bunch of other things as truisms.
Be a little critical of narratives about places you know nothing about yeah?
Least obvious psyop.. having winniexinping tell u u cant play games after your designated bedtime is crazy..
This advice of yours goes both ways yeah?
Go read up on videogame addiction. Reduces grey matter in the brain. Having socially isolated kids who only play games alone is damaging. Having kids touch grass in order to help avoid that is good.
"Least obvious psyop" after spewing straight up BS. Okay lol
I'm done goodbye
have you ever seen the full tank guy footage? here it is, if you're curious: https://youtu.be/qq8zFLIftGk the man is able to stop in the street, climb on the tank, talk to the operator, and walks away completely unharmed
compare this to NYPD officers, who simply run protesters over: https://youtu.be/q-W-7WPWfE4
The Great Firewall serves as a protectionist policy to encourage Chinese citizens to use China's own platforms to help build China's technological sovereignty while also filtering out a lot of reactionary crap. The Chinese people use VPNs to access YouTube and such all the time. I recommend watching Ben Norton's video on his experience living in China as he does talk about the Great Firewall and its purpose.
Fair enough ima download and take a look when canπ
Since what you said was either completely unture or not a bad thing, no I'm not going to trust you. You might want to do some investigation before speaking
