So anyone have any insight as to what happened to Naomi Wu? She's on the war path right now on twitter, it seems like VICE outed her and released private details about her life that they had agreed not to share.

She discovered how perfidious western journalists are when it comes to their foreign subjects, in addition to other China watching smears on her character.

I figure you would be happy since she's apparently such a subversive element that she has to fear the CCP

Like her tits, Naomi Wu tends to blow things up out of proportion, but VICE are still pretty loving poo poo for agreeing not to delve into her private life prior to the interview then immediately discuss reddit rumors about her white male husband doing all of her work and ghostwriting for her. Doxxing the journalists is not a good way to retaliate, though. I've met both her and her husband a few years back, they are genuine peoples. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

a step in the right direction, now let's see whether they'll be eligible for the same social services, whether their kids will be able to attend the same schools / classes as 'natives' and it still doesn't help the migrant workers (who often come from the affected tier 3-4 cities) in beijing, shenzhen, guangzhou, etc

In the next episode of "If the yankees did it, so can we": Boarding schools for children of ethnic minorities! All of this is of course against the grave terrorist threat of 6-year old kids, not at all because of an ongoing genocide.

How China Is Winning The War Against Measlesquote:China, by contrast, is making significant progress in battling the disease, according to a December report from the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention. In the past 13 years, with the exception of a brief resurgence from 2013 to 2015, the country has dramatically reduced its number of measles cases via vaccination and disease surveillance.

China is doing a good job of selling the necessity of vaccination to the people. It'd be nice if they could convince them to stop wiping out endangered species to make soup out of their dicks, but baby steps.

One superstition that Mao may have had something to do with is I heard from a dude last time I was in the mainland that extreme intelligence causes men to go bald, as the heat from the brain or something causes hair death. As a bald stupid person this pleased me greatly.

On one hand you have a totalitarian state that harvests its citizens for organs on the other hand anti vaxxers. I dont think you get whataboutism that well.

Does anyone know of a subreddit about China that is explicitly not political or biased (lol yes that sounds absurd)? That just focuses on day to day life of people in China as well as Chinese society and Chinese history? Yes, one could say politics is inescapable, but it's a bit tiresome that r/China and r/Sino are basically nonstop China bashing and China stanning respectively. It would be nice to find a subreddit that is a bit more neutral and holistic about China than the latest headlines. I also understand there are a massive series of posts linking to mega-threads on SA and other info right on the first page of this megathread, but I admit I am a more frequent user of Reddit nowadays. I can obviously make do with that if there are no good places on Reddit. America Inc. fucked around with this message at 05:23 on Dec 30, 2019 |

Or a subreddit that focuses on travel and people's accounts of their daily lives in China. Just something more comprehensive than Hong Kong, Uighurs, and trade war. Hmm, thinking about it this megathread is probably the best bet I have.

The majority of sinology that's any good is done in the chinese language. This was a deliberate choice to protect the study from being turned into another western cesspool like Indology, where the most important publications and scholars all live outside of India in western colonial countries.

I imagine doing an honest acedemic cultural study from within China would be risky to the authors, depending on the findings.

There is a shocking amount of candor in chinese academia, mainly because the CCP doesn't expect the average person to crack open academic journals to see what the latest criticisms are.
