We all know Chinese people, dude, there's 1.4 billion of them lmao. That doesn't make you an authority on their opinion and the sample size is negligible to say the least. 95 percent of them, according to Harvard, are happy with the government.

I never claimed to be an authority, and there's a reason I mentioned it was my opinion.

And again, it's not like there could be selection biases in a Harvard study. That absolutely never happens.

Jesus dude, just admit that nothing could ever be enough to change your mind.

I have shared some articles on China's crackdown on dissent here. Will you will change your mind after reading them?

Change my mind that the vast majority of Chinese are happy with their government? Why would your articles cause me to do that?

Thanks for admitting that nothing could ever be enough to change your mind.

Lol, you were so eager to drop that, that you didn't even bother to read what I said

Ohh wow, look who has appeared. Mr No reply to the original comment. Wonder what he will add to the conversation.

Like usual, it's nothing of value.

Others replied with the evidence you were asking of me, and you blew them off. Were you gonna suddenly read it if it had been me instead of them? I find it unlikely.
