        The only way to get Chinese citizenship these days is to have a PhD in electrical engineering and be a genius with semiconductors.

            becoming an American Yeonmi Park, telling stories about how Hollywood is actually a Potemkin Village and all the actors are forced at gunpoint to pretend to be wealthy, that the tax-rate is 140%, how evil capitalist enforcers will come to your house and shoot your dog and send you the bill (wait that's actually true) uhhh maybe that Qanon is real?

            I'll be expecting my Yuan now Mr. Xi

      They're simply trying to call you a hypocrite, which is often the only available means of critiquing coherent ideological stances
