I want to leave a comment to fellow Chinese citizens reading this thread.
1. "Don't waste your time with explanations. People only hear what they want to hear."
2. Don't get triggered by downvotes. They are just virtual numbers. They won't change the reality and facts. In the future, you will be able to come back and laugh at them.
3. It is not worth your time to explain the facts to them. Eventually people will face the reality no matter how hard media paints it. Just give it some time for the world to sort itself out.
Edit: If you really want to comment, try your best to be civil and substantial. I know it is hard with all the emotions, but not impossible.
- Juliate 8y agoBut please don't be too proud either. China is a great country, you're a great people. As we all are. All humans. Qualities. Defaults. History. You're not _that_ exceptional either. We don't criticize China. Neither you. We criticize the very idea of automation of social credit (thus of social relations, and individual freedom, and life), because our parents and grandparents had to experiment with it, and its consequences.
- paraditedc 8y agoI guess you are referencing Nazi? Without going into a history lesson, let me just point out that China fought against Germany in both WW1 and WW2. So our parents and grandparents do have some ideas of experiments and consequences.
- Juliate 8y ago> I guess you are referencing Nazi? Nope. Not everything totalitarian that happened in Europe in the past century was about nazism. Far from that.
