Lmao at least we have freedom and democracy, which is the freedom of dying of the plague when you go to buy slop from the supermarket
Westerners absolutely seething and coping in the comments section.
新年快乐！
I'd like this even more without those balloons floating off and eventually turning into litter (maybe they're quickly-biodegrading balloons or something? one can hope)
新年快乐, 同志!
Lots of good food and cash to take in this period. I just have to repeat this over a hundred times to my giant extended family as the price, minus the flavour (同志) at the end which I'm sure most people here can understand.
I'm showing this to people and getting "it's not Chinese New Year" as a response. What can I say that is not judgemental?
Here's what I came up with if anyone has a similar question:
""" assuming that's not a joke: China celebrates three "new year" holidays. First Gregorian new year, then a solar new year in early February, then lunar New Year, which lasts for weeks at the beginning of spring. """
Those balloons represent every person killed in the detention camps this year.
