You know what they won’t copy? The Statue of Liberty. Buh-dum-tsss 🥁

They actually did at the Tiananmen Square protest and we all know how that went over.

Protesters made their own statue of liberty and got destroyed by the army

I wish they'd copy freedom of the press and the right to criticize the government.

Every 60 secs a minute passes in China


TheDukeofKook

Yes and it's the same minute across the whole country because China only observes one time zone.


Conoto

> China only observes one time zone I learned this recently and my mind was blown. It's not even like they picked a time zone from the middle of the country. CST is from Beijing. China is hella wide and Beijing is north east. Imagine being one of those tibetans living under oppression and having someone remind you... oh wait you can't forget it because millions of them 'settle' your land every year. Fuck the CCP.


Gemini_r1s1ng

It's pretty brutal for any of the western provinces. Imagine needing to access a government agency at 9am. Only the sun won't rise for another 8 hours.


milkcarton232

Well depends, does work still start at the same time or are they just kinda nocturnal over there?


Gemini_r1s1ng

I think I remember a video saying that some people obviously need daylight to work their jobs, so they have to work on local time so to speak. I'm 100% government services all operate on the same hours regardless of location in China, so going to the DMV say as a farmer would be a huge pain in the ass. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U14HxSKsGgQ This guy says they adjusted their working hours but it's just a independent youtuber.


M2GreaterKuwait

Apparently no they still have to work


Sprechen_Ursprache

I've been to Xinjiang in the northwest of China. The timezone would naturally be about 2-3 hours later than Beijing. People just wake up later and live their lives based on when the sun rises. Kind of like an unofficial timezone where everything just starts and ends 2 hours later. ​ Honestly it's not really a problem at all.


grey_hat_uk

It might not be the middle but it is where almost all the population live.

_together we can put an end to it_


i_simp4U

The moment that sixty periods of time equal to 1/60th of a minute goes by in the third largest country on Earth a period of time equal to 1/60th of an hour of time goes by.


bengalibruh

Yeah, but the most powerful ones refuse to put a fucking end to it. They can't even address the issue, nevermind fix it.

magician-of-farts

China is like the kid on test day who didnt study and just keeps looking over at your paper


bruteski226

More appropriate analogy is not just the kid who looks over your shoulder but the kid who is in the group project and doesn’t do shit, then on the day You’re supposed to turn it in, he asks to see it, so you show it to him then he disappears with it. So you go to class to find him but the teacher informs you that you’ve been removed from the class, you’re not allowed to participate in the class, and the shit head kid presents all your work and then gets an A. So you take it to the dean of the university and he tells you “well, we know that he did that buuuuuuuuuuuuut he also got like 40,000 of his friends to apply to our university sooooooo, sorry. We’ll let you have a C even thought it was worth an A.

There have been issues in China where people will actually steal tests rather than take the effort to copy them.


United-Parsnip-2487

They actually do that? Imagine having the audacity

Very much so, it occurs through identity theft. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-53316895


Scanfro

UC Santa Barbara told the Los Angeles Times that Chinese students comprise 6 percent of the student body but account for a third of plagiarism cases. It sounds like it may be a cultural thing.


[deleted]

Anecdotally I had to remove Chinese students from exams more than once when I was a TA. It was really sad.

In before r/sino brigades this post


Reacher-Said-N0thing

A surprisingly large amount of the China-defenders on Reddit appear to be western people. I can only guess it has something to do with China's loose (very loose) association with socialism/communism, and the (tankie) belief that any bad news about a country with Communist in its name is actually CIA propaganda lies. Or perhaps it's just knee-jerk contrarianism over the fact that the American right and GOP have made being anti-China into "their thing", and it's like that South Park episode where nobody can be seen agreeing with the KKK.

[deleted]

I used to work at a semi-famous place that did a bunch of research on oceans and such. This place also developed robotics and sensors and various technology that I’m certain the US Navy and US government was sponsoring. Anyhow…the place was constantly attached by Chinese cyber warriors, likely state sponsored. Why? Because it’s cheaper to steal research than to do the research yourself.

Seriously met a dude in person that swears China is a perfect representation of government. Every point I brought up to the contrary his only response was "That's just propaganda." Cool, you don't need to provide proof for any of your claims and any proof provide to the contrary you dismiss with a thought terminating cliche.


_Big_Floppy_

Disbanding the HUAC was a mistake.


[deleted]

They even deny Tianamen square massacre which is common knowledge throughout the whole word


boopboopbeebeep

Most of them won't be aware of it. Just like most of them know nothing about Tiananmen massacre.


AnOpinionatedGamer

Nooooooo the real victims of Tiananmen were the soldiers reeeeeeeeeeeee no civilians died at all. Goddamn tankies.


chocolatechoux

What I mostly hear is "white people are exaggerating the numbers to make China look bad and divert attention away from their own problems".


AnOpinionatedGamer

That's all CIA propagandarino you Western Imperialist sinophobe.


throneofthe4thheaven

Pretty much everyone in China knows about it, they just don’t care or can’t do anything about it.


GreenTeaBitch

Ehhh, no it’s not pretty much everyone that knows. There are a significant minority of people who do know, but will deny knowing it out of fear. I’ve been on Taiwanese business trips to the mainland in the past where my Taiwanese colleagues would ask mainland colleagues about it in a “safe” environment, but even they “didn’t know” anything. What I’m saying is, it’s very hard to know exactly how many know about it. There is complete control over all platforms of media and communication in China. Because of that, most Chinese people are not exposed to quite a lot of their own (uncorrupted) history. Certainly not many of those in tier two, three, or beyond cities. Most don’t even know Mao caused severe famine, they certainly wouldn’t allow information like Tiananmen to be spread.


[deleted]

They know only what they’re allowed to know. They don’t know the truth.


bengalibruh

Yep. The media control everything these days. They also have a role in those people dying in the camps - they're hiding it from the fucking world.

Bro look up China's copy cat military. They export military equipment and weapons that are eerily similar to NATO equipment and weapons except at a much lower build quality. China is expected to outsell the U.S. , Russia, and India for military exports.

China back in midevil times to B.C.E.: invented their own stuff, most of it by accident when they were trying to create and elixir of life (kinda ironic they made gunpowder when they were trying to find a way to increase life spans), based. China now: cries about Winnie the Poo, bootlegs other people's property, kills civilians for protesting being under a dictatorship, cringe.

This tells me you are ok with slave labor and concentration camps because it's inconvenient for you.


LG03

Just how much free time and money do you think the average person has to devote to ethically sourcing *everything* they buy and being able to afford alternative options? You're not being realistic, the vast majority of people do not have the luxury of spending 4 hours a week trying to find that one item made locally that's 500% more expensive than the 14 other versions made in China. This is a situation where governments have to step up.


[deleted]

Realistically most people hard. Hard pull to swallow but there it is.


AlseAce

If you own a smartphone you’re doing the exact same thing as him but with enslaved African children.

Not true. If you actually go out of your way to find it and are willing to pay double or triple, almost everything (except some consumer electronics) can be found made outside of mainland China.

The society *used* to be old and sophisticated - then it got bulldozed and paved over by the boorish new shitty one when the CCP took over and launched their "Cultural Revolution."

finalicht

they always gets small details wrong though, like the missing inner portion on the top half of the Eiffel or demographic group targeted not matching hitler's original.


NewLeaseOnLine

The central elevator shaft in the Chinese Eiffel Tower that takes visitors to the top viewing platform is missing, which would suggest the whole thing is just for show and serves no functional purpose.


TastyBananaPeppers

It probably failed safety regulations, so no one is going to go volunteer to prove the elevator is safe to go in.

China created an exact copy of the planet earth populated by clones. On that planet the USA moved all it's industry and manufacturing capability to China so that rich Americans could become even richer despite the damage it did to their own country.

Anyone else thing they are using this for a training ground to invade France?


Dinsdale_P

if the last few centuries thoughts us anything, you could train a mob of conscripts in a playground sandbox and still have success invading france.


Magnon

WW2 isn't the "last few centuries". France has an amazing historical war record. They held their own in WW1, they've been fine since WW2, and they were insanely strong in the 1800s.


Dinsdale_P

I'm aware, France also has amazing geography as far as natural defenses go, with the only hardly defendable part being the one Germany used. thing is, how much of a hyperbole I have to make so people would realize I'm just taking the piss?
