Imagine an entire country on opium. Ok. Not enough information. Imagine a country full of people so incapable of speaking of negative things that even after gaining independance from Mongol rule, no one could explain to anyone else that those long braids they were all so proud of were catch ropes so the Mongols could use the Hans as toilets without the intervention of a chamber pot of any shape. Ok, now imagine those people on opium sharing pipes, losing shyness and sharing wives and no one mentioning to anyone that there could be a real reason why they shouldnt be doing that until everyone was infected.
Gradually the population drifted so that those with a genetic predisposition of overcoming or managing addiction came to be the most functional members of socitey, but unfortunetely they blossomed into that state after going through withdrawl and saying any damn thing that crossed their mind, meaning, no one with a family name or home was worth dog shit in the entire country and the best and brightest were contemplating eating dog shit way too often.
Anyway, it wasnt quite that bad, but thats how a lot of people saw it, so the people youve been asking about, the traditional visiting chinese schollar, well in 1947 all that was left of them sent you all letters, but you didnt answer them. They waited at the docks until they starved to death. They havent been replaced.
When you go to China, speak English, have patience learning to understand a Chinese accent, the rhythm and intonation are the hardest part. Most educated Chinese people have studied English longer than you have, and speak it better you just dont know that because you cant focus on their words, you cant tell when they switch from chinese to english because the music of their voice triggers your racism. Only you can learn to still that reaction, well thats not true, but you you wont like they way they do it if you leave it to them.
Also If you arent mature enough to watch porn and do business in china too, you have to make a choice. When sexualization is pushed on the normal chinese individual, thoughts turn to nonconsentual BDSM with CBT faster than a street vendor can fry up a batch of mystery meat, which you shouldnt eat unless you have had shots or shared needles.
