Hate the Chinese and their oppressive, uhm, flips pages, grammatical rules? :agony-consuming:
Damn Chinese Communists, reforming writing for their nefarious purpose of...
Checks notes
... making the language easier to read for everyone.
After the October revolution there was also a reform of Russian orthography with the intent of simplification. Needless to say the conservatives were extremely salty. The white emigre continued publishing shit using the old rules until the mid seventies.
Did the Chinese language even change or is this person just a dumb ass
Didn't even consider that but I think you're right about what they're referencing. It's weird because simplified doesn't simplify the language, it's more like the difference between a fancy gothic script and sans-serif.
Soooo they're mad that they made something more efficient... lmao
Today I have shattered my favorite porcelain cup and spilled my tea. That reminded me of china :angery:
