I think this is the best take in the thread.
Also, as someone who's from there, it's just pretty weird seeing folks on there saying "f the ccp" to each other, sometimes adding a "but not the chinese people tho". Like what is the point of yall repeating this shit to each other. It makes me feel like I'm sort of excluded, and I think I cannot really have a more in-depth conversation with those people because I do not think they will really understand my situation and the world around me.
You’ve really hit the nail on the head.
Do the anti CCPers really care about people? Or is it just a hate boner/we love freedom meme?
The way it comes off it’s like there really just isn’t any depth too it and it seems really performative with little real substance.
Yeah, the reality is most online commenters haven’t been to China at all or for very much and their understanding of it is binary and Perry surface level. It’s a shame, really, but this goes across exposure to all cultures I think.
