"If you're China" clearly refers to the government/party, assuming otherwise isn't good faith.

- astrange 2y agoWhen you say this, I don't think any Chinese people actually believe you.
- maeil 2y agoNot sure if the irony is intended here. The entire point is that the Chinese people aren't a monolith, hence CCP != The Chinese people. This will also hold for whether they believe us - in that too, Chinese people won't be a monolith. Plenty of those who aren't the biggest fans of the CCP will, as they understand where we're coming from better than anyone.

Plenty of those who aren't the biggest fans of the CCP will, as they understand where we're coming from better than anyone. Same can be said about people in US or most countries. It's just the big countries gets pumped up by the media and entertainment industry, so people tend to relate to them in a monolithic way.
- imp0cat 2y agoIsn't it kinda irrelevant? I don't think they can read it anyways (the people, not the party). Or has the great firewall been removed?
