    "In China, beekeeping is mandatory, they force every slum-'house' to host at least two wild colonies. This is because the chinese destroyed their natural populations of bees when Mao banned birds and that's why fruit crops must still be pollinated by hand in China. Of course bees aren't birds, but the chinese peasants were so stupid and eager to comply to their grand master that they killed all the bees along with all the birds, which they boiled in a big comunal broth, feathers included, because they were so hungry"

      okay effort, but it needs to also attack the hobby itself. You're trying to associate the hobby with China. Maybe something like:

      "except in a modern free country, beekeeping isn't even necessary. It's a waste of time, and a dangerous hobby to boot. You know that in China, lots of peasants are actually FORCED to keep bees because Mao literally extinctified the natural population decades ago?"

      I now realize due to your recent edits that your take is satirical

        Hmm, you are right.

        It's not intended to be satirical-satirical, I'm want to do as you said and screenshot it as a real reddit comment, and post it in beekeeping subs with the title "the bees understander has logged on" or something.

          I'd say it's way too over the top in the last half, you sound like a China-supporter who's making fun of chuds by overly exaggerating their disdain for the Chinese people.
