don’t bother. I made that mistake (spent a decade there). It just made me realise that values are so much more important than money. It made me angrier and angrier over the years living in a society like China. I just had to leave. Never support an authoritarian regime.

Could you provide some examples of what was wrong for you?

Not that poster, but the heavy handedness of the state makes the US government look like a picnic when it comes to a lot of things with regards to civil society.

So many people here were angsty about Covid lockdowns here, but those were nothing compared to in China. Similarly if one doesn’t like the president or an official in the US, one is free to go around denigrating them as much as they please - not a wise choice in China.

One needs to police their own tongue and accept draconian rules.
