Xi Jinping is hiring 87,000 agriculture police officers, and they're coming for Chinese farmersFarmers can only plant the crops the government approves, and the planting of climbing vegetables like beans or melons and squashes in front and backyards is strictly forbidden pic.twitter.com/ot16E2qsBe— Songpinganq (@songpinganq) April 21, 2023

    Unlike the US, where agricultural corporations can dye their crops with cyanide and spray it with silver nitrate and turpentine if they felt like it, China actually has regulations. This irritates the western brainpan that feels it is entitled to do anything it wants.

    Agricultural “police officers” is just the “prison”/“concentration camp” and “government”/“regime” thing, just standard enemy epithet bullshit :citations-needed:

    Xi Jinping is not personally overseeing the hiring of low level government workers. He probably had no input on the hiring process at all. It’s like saying Biden is hiring 80,000 janitors at police stations across the country. This is just the racist “Chinese hivemind” bullshit dipshit redditors like to trot out
