my impression after being on the app is that while america is constantly saying "evil china this, evil china that", china just straight up isn't thinking about us. what clued me into that was, i was watching a live where a chinese and american were talking. the chinese person said her first american movie she remembered watching was high school musical, and half jokingly asked if school was really like that here. the american informed her that no, schools here are generally unpleasant, and dangerous, and there's a huge risk of being shot in school. the chinese girl seemed actually shocked to hear about school shootings, like she had never heard that was happening here in her life. she straight up could not wrap her brain around it. that it happened, let alone that it's a common occurrence.

meanwhile, we're all still hearing about the same knife attack that happened forever ago in china, that despite us hearing about, we also get told that the EVIL CEECEEPEECOMMUNIST CCP PARTY OF COMMUNIST CHINA covers it up.

it's so blatantly obvious what's going on here. china has their own shit going on to worry about where as america has nothing good going on so we're constantly being told to "look over there at their problems"

Literally like in the late USSR.
