might just be a tier 3 thing or would you say it's true for 2nd and 1st tier cities too? @kaetaa
then again, education was quite patchy up until several decades ago so i could believe it
Man in my 2nd tier city they had a hard time understanding simplified
People in China can hardly communicate with each other just speaking Mandarin
really makes one <:chink:323022148870602752>
Well, try to explain westeners that chinese isn't necessarly the same
most older people in guangdong can read traditional
if they struggle, they probably struggle with simplified
simplified is not really a lot simplier since you still end up just trying remembering the word the way it is
年青人都應該識讀，係咪？
younger people just never encounter it
<:thonk:288060975775612929>
by now everyone younger than 30 would never practically used traditional
speaking Cantonese is slightly different
its a bit like Hakka language
not even with the prevalence of hk culture?
it's dying
its now a standard to know mandarin
HK had a bunch of Hakka people but they died off
my impression was that local guangdong people used canto with friends and family, mandarin for school and work
ye but whenever they write/read it would always be simplified
I'm not knowledgeable on the whole "free Tibet" thing, so I went to some YouTube videos to know more. 80% of the comments are from, what I assume, are trained mainland shitposters
They fucking losers go online just to make China seem good. It was weird cause they all say the same stuff over and over
Comparing tibet to Hawaii and Texas in America. Saying that if people want tibet to go, they should want states to be free too
Or comparing the Tibetans to native Americans. They never had any real arguments, just a lot of "oh yeah? Well what about (your country blah blah)"
It seems like it's always like that
Comparing tibet to Hawaii and Texas in America. Saying that if people want tibet to go, they should want states to be free too
They always deflect instead of saying real stuff. I'm guessing they are taught this
They say "we didn't conquer Tibet. We liberated them from slavery"
And people mention that the CCP stole the next child reincarnation and he's been missing forever (probably dead) they reply with "he's a fucking slaveowner he can't be trusted "
It's like dude he was a child haha
"he" it was clearly cute girl this time
Rip Lama
llama
now he can ascend to become the best Peruvian he can be
If they kill the kid panchen llama, wouldnt he reincarnate, according to Avatar the last airbender rules
meaning they have to hold him hostage

China stronk, no bulli <:chaika:232792149874311168>
