    I don’t know … learn Chinese? Spend quality time living/working in China? Open up a Weibo or bilibili account to ask questions and participate in their civil society? Learn about what the Chinese are saying in various media/platforms —academic articles, newspapers, party communications on all levels, Weibo, bilibili, douban, Zhihu (many of which have varying ideological leanings) — about their own country, lives, policies, culture? Study Chinese histories and understand the different historical imaginations? … I’m sure they’ve already been doing all that since they are PAID to think about China, right?
