I’d absolutely live in China, but I’d probably move back due to family. I definitely see the US Empire and all who enable it to be greater evils, considering the relentless plunder of the Global South propping them up and the brutal genocide in Palestine that is deemed necessary by the US and its vassels.
easy said when you have nothing to say.
you could live there if you stop caring about being free or having the freedom to just read what you want. it’d be a sad life.
I have quite a lot I can say, I spend a good amount of time reading up on China and Marxism-Leninism in general. If you have a specific area to talk about, we can! I certainly would feel more free in China than I do in the US, and I’d be fine reading what I want. It certainly wouldn’t be a sad life.
I’m not a liar. VPNs are accessible in China, and you can download books that way, it’s pretty easy to get through any censorship. I’d be fine reading what I wanted.
no. you wont. you are a liar.
just imagine having a book about free hong kong, free tibet, free… anyway, you get the point, you go to jail for reading.
china is just pathetic. i pitty the brainwashed.
ask any hingkong activist.
i am sure they call you delusional.
I’m not a liar, I could access books of those types and read them without going to jail, though I likely wouldn’t want to read them anyways. Hong Kong is a freed British Colony, and before the PLA liberated Tibet, it was a slave-driven feudalist economy running on torture backed by the West, and is currently autonomous with high approval rates for the CPC.
Rather than “mind control,” people license themselves to believe ideas that coincide with what they percieve to be materially beneficial. Capitalists genuinely believe that Capitalism naturally selects for those most competent, Chinese citizens genuinely believe Socialism in China benefits themselves, and both are genuine beliefs because of real material benefits.
You know, if for one second you entertained ideas that go against your current understanding, you’d develop deeper and multi-sided understanding. Instead, you reflexively complain about communists and conspiracies. Of course environmental factors play a role, but they do not command thought, but reinforce beliefs.
Joshua Wong, famously western-backed politician that was used to sow dissent when the majority of Hong Kongers approve of the status quo? You sure that’s who you want to back?
The PRC is not evil, you wholeheartedly believe everything the US State Department wants you to. You should read the linked article.

Further, “Brainwashing” isn’t real. I recommend reading Masses, Elites, and Rebels: The Theory of Brainwashing.
The idea of “brain-washing” can be credited to Edward Hunter, a CIA-funded writer and editor, who in 1950 started writing articles and books on the subject. His thesis was that Red China and the Soviet Union could control the minds of their respective citizenry—which explained how susceptible Americans captured on foreign soil would be.
