I did not say anything about his opinion, I was referring to the comments, which for a platform that should be blocked in China, are surprisingly pro-China.

- mytailorisrich 7y agoYes, but as I mentioned it is not surprising that there is genuine support even if some of the comments may not be real. There are many Chinese living abroad. I'm thinking it may also depends on which channel you're looking at. This one is essentially a government one and so may be followed by people who tend to be sympathetic. There are also quite a few negative comments.
- leppr 7y agoThe format of the top comments are all similar. 20-30 words staying under the "Read more" limit, “I am X, I support China", 200-250 upvotes. Replies are argumented with links to anti-US articles. Not very subtle, this was probably just homework for the interns.
- Smithalicious 7y agoI don't know, a lot of YouTube comments are "I am X and I think Y". Usually "I am from X country and support Y country" (on national anthems and such) or "I am young and like old music".
