    yeah, i followed r/china for awhile and man did it warp and distort what I was actually trying to accomplish by subbing to that place. Just a bunch of angry sexpats back then which turned into the worst possible reactionary hellholes on reddit when the HK protests started up. I mean, it was always reactionary scum shit, but it got worse, a lot worse.

    It's so easy to manipulate otherwise good intentioned people with that shit, i realized quick how many predators were on that sub, but occasionally a normal person or a non-subscriber would post there and it would be very interesting to read some stuff about their experience in China. Or some people would post some very nice photos they took. If you didn't no-life that place at some point, it would be so easy to skew your view on something you didn't know anything about, at all.

      Yeah, every East Asian country subreddit is basically just salty sexpats fuming about not finding "muh traditional submissive azn waifu".

      The venn diagram of those types and reactionary chuds is basically a circle.
