you can definitely be happy in china. it is more affordable, the endless stream of government subsidized factories making cheap shit and knocking off technology. im mad jelly because I cant get certain cheap chinese shit in the states. the industry just isnt here. and the american alternative is blood sucking expensive.

If I were you I would not trust the food in chinese restaurants. even in america I dont trust it. its cheaper and cleaner to make your own.

Why on earth not? People eat there, too. Most of the time, they don't even die.

Then again, I guess Chinese might say the same of Italian restaurants. "Bro, don't eat in those restaurants over in Europe. Can't be trusted. If you're in Florence, it's better to drop by Tien-Tien's; she cooks proper Chinese food so that's definitely OK, here let me give you her number..."

(Btw, I'm not making this up; most Chinese tourists around here eat in Chinese restaurants. I dunno if it's their preference for food that resembles what they eat at home, or a basic distrust of foreign cuisine. Might be a combination of both. Fact is that only a few eat 'local' and the others are carted into Chinese places by the busload.)

I really want to learn Mandarin, but it's hard to find someone to practice with.

I have heard that people use multiplayer online videogames to learn languages, because you can practice with people from that country, and you have something to actually do with them, instead of just ramble whatever nonsense you can get off about your day, and bore the shit out of eachother, cuz real life is boring.

Anyway... you're lucky you have a Chinese gf to practice with. Some languages are eash enough to muddle through without emersing yourself in the culture, but Mandarin probably isn't one of those for a native Engrish speaker.

It would be pretty lame if he just did what every other douchey rich leach piece of shit does.

No offense Waarlock, but I've long held the view that the only solution to the problems of the world is for working folk to start eating the rich. Literally. Start at the toes... or the sweetbreads.. shit, start at the nuts for all I care, but these mofos have GOT TO GO. Gruesomely!

Anyway, you seem like a decent dude... and I'm assuming you're not rich rich, so we will exempt you from all of that business. For now.

I have to say... it really is wild seeing a Libertarian(?).. so incredibly in the bag for an authoritarian regime like what they have going on in China.

I suppose it probably has to do with the fact that you are wealthy enough (especially in China), to shield yourself from the reality that regular Chinese folk live daily. I'm sure they aren't all best buds with the chief of police, anyway lol.

Maybe you should factor that into your assessment. It's easy to make a well-off person comfortable in any society. The goal is to make life as liveable at possible for as many people as possible.

Or maybe I am wrong. You tell me.

Personal liberty is cherished in Western countries, because of what it took to win that for common people. The wealthy always have had it, but for most of human history, the common man did not. It is the most precious thing for a rational human being.

It is more valuable than having a well-ordered, clean, disciplined populace.. as nice as those things are. It is more valuable than reducing crime rates, even... I think.

You seem to be quick in making assumptions based on your own (Western) worldview about how regular Chinese experience living in their society. Many great wars were started based on that premise - particularly by Western countries.

It's funny, because you accused me of jumping to conclusions, when that's actually what you did before finishing my post.

I'm still waiting for dude to weigh in, and potentially enlighten my view.

It’s quite possible money is preventing me from experiencing the horrors and atrocities of trying to make a living in China. I drink beer with these dudes in the working class from time to time and they still chant “China #1!”

Nationalism is a huuuge part of Chinese culture (And North Korean... culture.. for that matter). I think it's good to have a reasonable amount of pride in your country, as long as you have a clear-eyed view of it's strengths and weaknesses.

I used to think Nationalism was a terrible, irrational thing, but at the end of the day, we are tribal animals, and there is no changing that.

A few things to consider though (Bear in mind, my knowledge of China is quite limited):
I have heard horror stories about women in Chinese sweat shops jumping from the rooftops to kill themselves.

During Covid, China had one of the harshest, most dehumanizing lockdown policies in the entire world. Theh would literally board up people's doors, and lock them in their houses.

Are you comfortable living in a country (say... permanently), whose government endorsed and encouraged something like Chinas "Cultural Revolution".

To me, Xi seems like a fairly well-tempered, intelligent, and capable leader, but men like that are in short supply, particularly in the highest rungs of power, and especially in a dictatorial type of government.

He could easily be replaced with someone with a far more tyrannical appetite, and you would not be afforded the same kind of rights, to protect you from the government, that we have here.

There are things that even massive quantities of money can't fix.

Based on the info given from OP:


-Guy is from a third world sand country full of low IQ retards (Afghanistan).


-Thinks China is a leg up from USA because he got laid from a 4'8" loose Chinese chick he found on Craigslist.


-Lives the rest of his days fearing for his well-being of wrong-think and walking on eggshells (If he says the wrong thing he will get shot/hung by ching chang xiou's personal execution squad).

None of this is fact.

Yeah this thread seems to be a bunch of thinly veiled jealousy masquerading as half-baked faux concern.

Y'all are way too practiced at arguing on the internet. Why is everyone trying so desperately to rain on OP's parade?

The kicker is that the theme seems to be

Project all the doubt and anxiety I am feeling in my own life onto random internet guy who sounds like he has it better than me.

Spin it in a way that makes it seem like I said these mean spirited things out of a sense of genuine concern for this stranger.

Talk to them like they're too stupid to understand how morally superior and at peace I am with my station in life.

Seriously you guys, try being a little kinder to yourselves and maybe you'll have more rewarding things to do with your time than trying to sell your self-doubt to strangers on the internet. Sheesh.
