Also, who cares about cameras? Chinese surveillance is actually pretty fragmented and performative. In China, municipal doesn't really talk to provincial which doesn't really talk to federal authorities. Completely unlike GB or USA, which are nearly panopticons in comparison. Fusion centers exist in every major American city, which staff hundreds of people each and whose goal is to integrate all knowledge between the local police department, the FBI, BPS, INS, etc. Nothing like this exists in China. Besides, without cameras, how would you get your 6 year old anecdotes from a country with 1.4 billion people that you base all your garbage takes on?:

"Who cares about cameras?"
"Government surveillance in China isn't all that bad because the data isn't shared between authorities."
"America is actually much worse."

Good job, comrade.

And, further proving me right that all Western propaganda is projection, there is an expansive, intrusive, life-deciding system in the West, it's called a "credit score", where you have to take on debt just to prove that you are good at managing debt, and you need a good score even for things that don't require debt, like renting a place to live or even getting a job.

What's wrong with that account? --> group: member

Not banned / locked / whatever as far as I can tell so you might as well stop referring to this user.

It's not the media in the West that are hate-criming Asian people. It's regular fuckhead Westerners.

And no, I am not Chinese. My partner is, though.
