I am so disillusioned with the absolute state of Western politics. I don’t know where to begin, I feel like I’m living in ‘They Live’. The constant hypocrisy, the constant slope towards AuthRight. Qanon bullshit everywhere, people becoming increasingly confident of increasingly stupid positions.
My entire family are in a completely different world.
I know I should try to fight for socialism in my own country but I really think the Western mind is beyond help at this point, I’ve felt this way for a long time actually. I’m ML/Dengist.
I’m thinking I want to save for the next 2 years and learn Chinese and find a job in China even if it’s just a translation job, I also have 3D modelling skills, my job prospects here are pretty shit anyway.
Is this doable? How do Chinese people feel about this? Good idea? I would even join PLA if I could.
u/veinss - originally from r/GenZhouI wanted to do this. Its doable, kind of. I mean learning Chinese is no walk in the park but if you’re up to it and have a good ability to manage your time and you’re dedicated to your goals you can do it… You do need to consider that China probably graduates more 3d artists every year than the entire west though. It may be possible to get an animation job regardless though, especially if you’re willing to live anywhere. Its an exploding industry.
But it’s s too hard for me. I’d rather sit at home and make my own little 3d animation projects all by myself, the concept of having a job and talking to people in any language spooks me. And I like my country and think we will be fine when the west falls. If I lived in the western core though, I’d be either in prison or would’ve left already
