    Poor people living there… Being fed lies from their media, and basically being rejected the access to true freedom, like in the “western world”

    How do we know that’s true?

        Your poor rich friends. Maybe they should take the money and run.

          Not possible! CCP is limiting how much money you can exchange each year. That’s how free China is :)

              Yep. So who right in their mind would live their wealth behind, when Millionaires live like kings in Shanghai, as long as they don’t voice their actual opinions?

            I mean, I have friends in the CCP. Do you know how fucking brainwashed they get? My friend’s wife joined them… My friend rejected, calling it more like a Religion/Cult.

              It’s the CPC BTW. Do they brainwash them into spelling it correctly?

              Stop lying, you are transparent.
