British youtuber meets some Chinese people in London...

Partisan? I didnt even want Trump as nominee in 2016. This is a fact that she would have been far better for China than Trump. Trump called them out and applied tariffs which still remain to this day! If he had not done so, would Hillary have? Would she have called out China for covid or defended them? Would she have prevented flights from China?

Wake up please. Before Trump the U.S was essentially afraid to call out China due to corporate interests! There are now rumours that China has purposely overstated their economy for decades with the expectation they will take down Western investors when it crashes. Another trojan horse.

Well, China is what it is.

Yes, the Chinese lie, it's part of their political culture. However we just don't know the consequences of what they do because it's so different to what happens in the West.

Confidence is a part of it. The Chinese have more confidence in their system because their economy has been growing since 1990. The problem in the west is that people start losing confidence then everyone's like "sell your shares, get out" and the economy tumbles. In China this is less likely to happen because the govt controls the media.

So, it will be an interesting time to see whether it will just fall like a stack of badly made shelves made out of shit, or whether it works better.

The real meat of the story should be that these people were so terrified of their government, the Chinese don't even feel safe abroad, but whatever.

Didn't seem to be the government they were afraid of, but their contract they'd signed with their TV company.

But not scared enough to just go away.
