What was that stuff about being racist but instead of "race" saying "culture" so it's socially acceptable ?

Bonus from OP:

Not much we can do about that. It's just Chinese culture that hacking is a normal thing...their internet cafes literally comes pre-installed with hacks for online games because if the customers kept winning then they kept paying and renting PCs.

(no they don't, a couple years ago some twitter dipshit saw a computer in an internet cafe with a map tool that was approved by the game developer and thought it was a cheat)

      Maybe I'm wrong here but I don't see a whole lot of utopian idealization about China on shrekbear outside of memes. I think people appreciate its ostensibly Marxist influences and that it's beating the global capitalist empire at its own game.. But I could be wrong

        There’s a big contingent of Maoist zoomers here who have some pretty naive and idealistic ideas about China.

          I'll admit I sometimes get that way. I swing between "we will not see capitalism fall before the planet dies" and "China will save us all within 5 years" when I'm at a high or low point. I know neither is necessarily true.
