Or is it mostly the same as the west.

Was just curious.

    I've never been, but from what I've heard from others on the site China is both less actively pro-inclusion than some of the lib cities in the US or Australia, but also much less bigoted than anywhere else. So you might get weird looks and some confusion, but you're unlikely to encounter deranged bigots as well. Kinda like how the US was before the culture war took off, outside of the South at least. Mixed bag.

      Yeah, no deranged bigots outside of the South back in the good ol days. Those other states were basically bastions of rationality and tolerance until Fox News told them not to be

        Yeah I know that it's always been bad. But you really can't deny that culture war BS has heightened tensions a great deal, and people are more alienated nowadays than ever before. But yes, lynchings didn't only happen in the South and there have been plenty of antisocial fascists causing harm all over Amerikkka since the first colonizer stepped off the Mayflower.
