    These people are YouTubers as well. How can you actually believe some random YouTuber knows every ins and outs about a country as massive as China? Even to the point that they manage to predict when China will collapse?

    Governments and their resources can’t even do that.

        There’s this movie called Dinosaur, where a Dinosaur befriends a group of monkeys, and there is a scene in it where the monkeys are dangling a baby on top of a tree, sort of ready to throw it down.

        When I heard about the one child policy (as a child, mind you), I always imagined that scene but with Chinese parents and their kids. Looking back, it’s kind of stupid lmao.

          They teach it to us as if it’s literal state-sponsored infanticide with baby receptacles where you throw infant girls or something, instead of monetary and tax incentives. It’d be pretty comical if it weren’t so insidiously pervasive.

      A lot of people have more confidence on random youtubers than in traditional media and the government. Of course they’re not going to have a sober reading of reality, whatever if its about China or any other topic.
