Do these people not realise you can just talk to a Chinese person about these things?

I was curious about whether or not China had light displays for Christmas. I looked up on YouTube. There were a few walk around videos showing off Christmas lights in Chinese cities. ~5,000 views. Between two of the results was a video titled something like China CANCELS Christmas with some kkkracka in a poor fitting suit sitting at his dining room table with an awful looking green screen behind him. 50,000 views and comments like “YES SIR THANK YOU FOR KEEPING US INFORMED SIR.”

EDIT: the cancel video has 635K views now

A bunch of those views are bots from the government to juce the algorithm. I am reasonably sure of this.

Entirely anecdotal but when I was staying in China for a while the supermarket near me went absolutely all out for christmas, no place where I live in NA does that anymore. So if anything China is apart of the vanguard defending christmas or something.

Its ridiculous how much propaganda about China is obviously disproved from spending just a few hours there

there’s a genre of posts by western college students who talk to Chinese international students. They ask them about social credit and Winnie the Pooh and other weird shit, and they’re flabbergasted when the Chinese student has no idea what the hell they’re on about lol

Sadly, most of them use that as “proof” of their brainwashing. They’re “forced” to pretend to be ignorant to trick westerners.
