Do you guys…speak Chinese? I don’t. So they wouldn’t do me any good. In fact, I’m pretty sure I’ve come across them and couldn’t read them.
Doesn’t the great firewall mostly censor access within the country? It searches for keywords of topics they don’t want their people reading. As for information leaving/entering the country, it’s still accessible, it just prioritizes domestic information. But yeah, sounds like a great system that would totally pwn me and my beliefs as an anti-statist and someone who sees communism as flawed—not to mention whatever china is operating under now, which sure as shit isn’t communism lol
I lived in China for a few years and the number of Chinese people who think they can speak English is a lot different than the number of people who actually can speak English and be understood by other English speakers.

There are about as many Chinese people who speak English as a second language as there are Americans speaking English natively.
I’m sure you would notice it if they had unrestricted access to the internet. They can’t all be lurking.
there’s like a lot of chinese people in china
Most of them, in fact
Yes, most. But not all. There are currently approximately 50 million Chinese people living elsewhere.
That’s a lot more than the domestic population of many individual countries.

Memeing is easier than speaking at least.
Yeah, I was gonna say this meme has got the labels backwards.
