Ah, yeah usually they do unfortunately take such a stance to marx. Yup, I saw this class and knew I had to take it. no regrets.

aww… for sociology class? I know they cover marx often.

Also my professor is so cool first day he was like this class takes an anti colonial stance(and implicitly was like if you disagree then drop) and that he talks about how our uni was founded on stolen land and such.

I am ashamed to admit that the merch i got on my china trip mostly consists of… checks notes… hatsune miku, jjk, and sanrio merch… oops.

yes, for overseas diaspora

Hmm, i feel like most abc believe china to be really nice environment wise like rest of asia but dislike the government. memes like social credit are pretty common. It’s never to the point of demonizing chinese people, i would say the most common stance is support for the people but not the government.

Unfortunately no time to do so, but maybe in the future.

Haha, i took the picture to make a similar joke about wuhu island from wii sports

LOL yes it would probably be a lot better experience with some chinese knowledge. Also if you can somehow meet a chinese person and have them show you around(maybe try a language exchange idk), that would be cool too.

Hmm… another comrade might be able to answer this better.

For the mountain that my grandparents have a home near chongqing, we took a 40 minute train ride and then rented a car and drove for like an hour and a half. It wouldn’t be a place that you would really go without like knowing someone who lives there tho…

Another option is like Zhangjiajie, the avatar mountains but they’re super busy i hear. For green space there is a ton throughout the city, but if you really want like a hike/nature destination i wouldn’t know enough to answer.

Hm… the malls were more empty than you’d expect, except at like the super big places. I think the places locals would actually frequent and super big attractions still had a lot of people. I just remember this one mall in nanchang was mostly empty… And i’ve heard multiple people say the economy isn’t as great in non-political situations. It’s likely that the average citizen can feel that the economy isn’t as growing as fast as before, but I don’t ever hear “China Collapse,” no one would say that china would collapse I feel.
