Don't go, it sucks. It's expensive, the dances are very repetitive, and not very good. Between dances they like to tell you how lovely the CCP is and ask for monetary donations. We were pretty pissed to find out it was Falun Gong. It just sucks all around, and I don't think any amount of drugs would make it better.

I also don't understand how it keeps going year after year, there can't be that many new dances.

Go to a local Chinese communities show and be better entertained.

They always go the extra mile, and yeah, it's lol when they do.

Falun Gong is probably on par with QAnon in craziness. It's just that the CCP is even worse so people feel sorry for them. But in the end they're still crazy people.

I hadn't put them in the same camp, but that's a tight comparison.

Laowai is only vaguely insulting. Gwailo is a slur, so guizi is the better Mandarin equivalent.

Haha these are great. In Wuhan the trains/stations would have cartoons like this telling you to behave politely and be considerate using a big nose white guy with a blond afro as the illustration of how not to behave. He was always yammering loudly on the phone and eating stinky noodles on the train!!!

And I never heard laowai in China. Usually it was wai guo ren or bai ren (followed by the sound of a camera phone shutter).

I remember a few times getting a drawing of myself at some roadside artists because they'd be a cool traditional style, and they'd get to the nose and pause for a bit trying to decide if they should just slap my big racist caricature style nose on there and I'm just like hell yeah, give it to me!

And this is the craziest thing I've ever seen posted in this thread. I had laowai shouted at me approximately 90000000000000000 times. Even people who knew our names at work referred to us as laowai when not directly addressing us.

I heard laowai literally any time I went out in public in Sichuan in the 2000s, and I heard yang/guizi and dabizi a few times. 'Waiguoren' always seemed a lot more polite to me, if you had to loudly point out the foreigner to your friends on the bus.

In Beijing it seemed like laowai is said less often, but I think it was that foreigners are much less remarkable there and no one cares. I'd imagine Shanghai is the same.

:backtowork:
The Chinese state (not Party) has a rubber-stamp "legislature" called the National People's Political Consultative Conference. It's multiparty, with powerless groups like the Revolutionary Nationalist Party participating and all key positions coincidentally filled by Communist Party members. It's also the place Hong Kong Chief Executives get to go once they have finished loving over Hong Kong - both Beijing loyalists Tung Chee-hwa and Leung Chun-ying both got spots (Sir Donald Tsang didn't get one because he did too good of a job in actually trying to do what was best for Hong Kongers).

Enter Carrie Lam. She singlehandedly destroyed Hong Kong by ignoring everyone who told her she was going to make a small issue snowball, all so she would, in her mind, make Beijing happy. She more than anyone else helped crush civil society in Hong Kong, jail democrats, finally introduce national security laws, and spur the exodus of hundreds of thousands of citizens with pro-Western or pro-democracy leanings. Right up Beijing's alley, right?

She received .... nothing. I'd like to think she learned that once you've done the party's bidding you'll be spit out like so much useless gristle, but knowing her, she'll find some way to blame somebody else.
