12/29/23 - Everyone says they hate it. But nobody ever comes back.
[Just noticed that I messed up the dates on the last few posts >.> Ignore that please.]
A blogger reposts about a mother and son emigrating illegally to America, saying, “Two runaways, mother and son, who are insisting on emigrating. The dad’s probably out already. Don’t worry though, you can’t starve to death in America~”
The mother’s blogposts reads, “Flew from Japan to Mexico. Wow, what a contrast getting off the plane. It’s super dirty and messy and poor, feels just like China, and I’m not used to all the food. Thankfully, we’re only staying here 3-4 days. But they’ve got tons of old ruins here, like the Mexican City Catholic Church is the oldest and largest church in South America. And there’s the Presidential Building, the Post Office, the Art Museum. The buildings here are all very unique and worth checking out, especially if you’ve never left the country before.
I prepared for a hike and brought tons of food and water, but didn’t end up using any.”
Comments say, “I don’t know about boys, but little girls will probably get raped. As for whether that’ll become a livelihood for them, I don’t know.”
“They either owe money or they’ve done crimes. Or she’s in some kind of cult, so she has to do this risky shit with her kids. If America won’t even allow them a visa, you can imagine how bad it must be.”
“It’s so weird. China isn’t that bad, is it? I thought nobody was doing this anymore, but I learned just recently that people are still illegally emigrating (without a criminal record or anything). I just, like, don’t get it.”
“Where the hell does she live in China, that’s as dirty and messy and poor as Mexico?”
“I always thought it was ridiculous, but apparently, a lot of men buy into this shit. When I run into people like this, I’m just speechless.
Like, they love to repeatedly bring up how women can give birth, and how bad giving birth is for you, and how they can’t work (or do housework) after having kids, so they need a bride price and a sense of security (that is, add their name to your house) and blah blah blah.
But I swear to God, the laws in this country clearly state that women have the right to decide on childbirth.
Do you know what it means to have the right to decide?
Both men and women have the right to childbirth, but only women have the right to decide on childbirth. Do you understand what that sentence means?
So stop bullshitting people. Whether or not you have kids, who you have kids with, whether you cheat or get a paramour or however you want to do it, or if you don’t have kids at all—women get to decide all of this on their own. That’s in China’s constitution.
So if you think childbirth is too hard on you, or bad for your career, or you don’t have enough safety nets, then you can just decide to not have children. That’s your right as given to you by China’s highest laws. Aside from yourself, no one can force you to have kids.
You already have the exclusive right to decide on childbirth, why are you lecturing men, who don’t have any reproductive rights at all, about uteruses blah blah blah stretch marks blah blah blah?
Are you shitting me?
Isn’t this classic slavemaster complaining to the slaves how hard they have it?
And just so you know, China has the highest amount of feminist protections in its laws in the world, whether it comes to marriage or childbirth, or the execution of its laws.
So guys, don’t feel guilty when you se women talking about childbirth. You just have to feel guilty towards your mother. That’s it. Because anyone else chose to have children on their own. It’s their own free will. You don’t have to blame yourself for other people’s decisions. It’s just the same as the west trying to put guilt on China.”
Comments say, “What a bullshit blogpost. If the law allowed women to pass the right of reproduction to men, I think most women would happily do so.”
“You’re also choosing to go to work everyday, so it doesn’t matter what value you’ve created for your boss, you have no right to demand a salary. Because you chose this of your own free will. You can feel free to quit, or slack off during work, or go to a different company. No one is forcing you to work. I’m just gonna exploit the value of your labour and never pay you, since you choose of your own free will to work.”
“I don’t want kids, and I don’t want to get married either, but I’ve never met any man who didn’t want kids. The ones who are better off want sons specifically. And even the super poor ones are still looking for women to have children with explicitly. People ask me what my criteria for a husband are, and I don’t want a house or a car or a bride price so long as they are strictly childfree. And then people are like, “What kind of man wants a wife who won’t have kids?” Sigh. I guess if I can’t find any, I just won’t get married. I’m just too scared of childbirth.”
A tiktok video of a goat attacking a person. The blogger reposting this says, “At first, I didn’t get this goat, until I saw the goat head laying on the ground.”
Comments say, “This family has no love.”
“Now I’m sad :(“
“I don’t think that’s a goat head. I’ve never seen a goat with horns like these.”
“The poor goatie is just fighting for their life.”
“Last week, I went over to my boyfriend’s house. Since it’s my first time going over to his place, his parents invited his grandparents over.
We set off at 11AM, and got to his place at 4PM, and then I saw down and talked to his parents and grandparents and drank some tea. Drinking tea always makes me feel hungry. Although I was snacking on a fruit and nut platter the whole time, I still didn’t feel full. We ate at 10AM and then set off, and since it was so early, I didn’t eat much. I secretly told my boyfriend I was hungry, and he said he’d see about getting dinner early. I liked eating dry-fried shrimp, so he made some in the kitchen. His family likes bland flavours, so they rarely make anything this flavourful. His mom had already made a full spread for dinner.
When my boyfriend went to the kitchen to cook, I went in to watch him, and the two of us were the only ones in the kitchen when he was done. I picked out two shrimp and ate it in the kitchen, and his mom saw when she came in to set the table, and she went, “Are you that hungry?”
And I was like, “Tea always makes you hungry.”
And his mom didn’t say anything and went back out.
We all had dinner together, and chatted for another hour in the living room after that, then my boyfriend drove all night to take me home.
His mom was clearly unhappy after she saw me eating the shrimp. I asked my boyfriend if I did anything wrong on the way back, and he said it was all fine.
Then the day after we got home, my boyfriend told me that his mom doesn’t like me because she felt I was disrespectful. That while there were elders in the house, I was eating by myself in the kitchen. She wants me to make dinner when I go over to his place next month to try to recover my image.
Does everyone think I have to cook at his place? I wanna see what everyone thinks.”
Comments say, “Oh, you just ate some shrimp? I thought you ate the Dragon God of the Eastern Sea or something.”
“All I can say is, if you really marry him, his mom will be a pain in your ass, and he’s not gonna be any help.”
“If they really thought of you as family, they’d just feel bad about making you hungry.”
“Wow, this is like Dr. Ridiculous doing orthopaedic surgery, ridiculous to the bones.
I’m not a gossipy kind of person, so when the news story came out of the guy who was married for 16 years, and none of his three children are actually his first came out, I was shocked, but I wasn’t going to cover it on my blog. Until this whole thing started going to court, and all kinds of reporters were interviewing him, and I realised that when faced with a woman that not even the Women’s Association can defend, Mr. Chen in Jiangxi can only become “The Greatest Cuck in the World.”
Like, there are so many ridiculous facts about this case.
First, none of the three kids are actually his, and he actually said, “If so much as one of them were mine, I would’ve kept quiet about it.”
Second, when reporters went to interview the woman, she accused Mr. Chen that, “These kids have been calling you dad for over a decade, and yet you’re betraying them like this? You’re a bastard!”
Third, this woman claimed that DNA tests aren’t 100% accurate, and she doesn’t know either whether they’re his kids, and, “Is blood relations really that important?”
Fourth, to get back at Mr. Chen for going public with this, she went to his house with fireworks with her paramour, and startled Mr. Chen’s dad into a heart attack.
Fifth, the reporter went to interview the woman’s mom, and she said that Mr. Chen abused her daughter because he was upset the kids weren’t boys. And Mr. Chen said that after he found out, he went to talk to his MIL too, and she advised him to just keep living life for the sake of the kids. You know, the kids of some other man.
Sixth, when the suspected paramour Mr. Wu got interviewed, he claimed that he just got caught walking out of a hotel with the woman, but he was only there to pick her up. He’s got a family of his own.
Seventh, after Mr. Chen went public, his wife gave birth to a fourth daughter, and the person who stayed in the delivery room with her was this Mr. Wu who walked out of a hotel with her. Mr. Wu faked Mr. Chen’s signature on her consent papers, but left his own phone number on the paperwork.
Eighth, the three kids are all no-contact with Mr. Chen now.
Ninth, we still don’t know just how many different fathers these four kids have.
Tenth, the woman claimed that there’s still love between her and Mr. Chen so she won’t agree to a divorce. And if he insists on divorce, then she wants half of his parents’ real estate assets.
What kind of fucking human being is this? She’s so scummy she makes the sky go dark and the Gods fly into fury! Everyone believes in advising people to stay together and not split apart, but honestly, this kind of family? They’re better off splitting up. Of course, he’s gotta go after child support and emotional damages and pursue polygamy charges on this woman and her paramour.”
Comments say, “Is this for real? It’s gotta be made up, right? It’s just too ridiculous…if she had his kids, then it’s normal to split assets with him, but none of the kids are his! I mean, bearing it for the children usually refers to your own children, right? XD”
“They’ll punish marital rape but not adultery, punish sleeping with prostitutes but not having mistresses, punish selling but not delivery. How the hell can they still demand people respect the law?”
“My worldview was shattered the moment she told him to keep living for the sake of someone else’s kids.”
“Some of my relatives wouldn’t listen to good advice, and sold a 3-bedroom unit on Beijing’s fourth ring and spent 400K RMB on emigrating to Australia. Worked in interior decorating there, and they claim to live in a big mansion, but it’s just in a tiny rural town. Every time they go get groceries, they have to hop in their car and drive 10 km. It’s a super inconvenient lifestyle. In 2018, they came back all depressed, saying they regret ever leaving, but now they can only afford a two-bedroom in Tongzhou. Now, they can’t come back even if they want to. I bet they’re stuffed to the gills with regret!”
Comments say, “Everyone says they hate it. But nobody ever comes back.”
“Most people, even if they regret their major decisions, would never admit it to someone else. Like buying an expensive luxury car, and things keep breaking down in it. No matter how annoyed they are, they won’t complain in front of other people about what a piece of shit their car is. Same with houses. No matter how much they regret it in their heart, they won’t let it known to other people.”
“Can you not tell they’re humble-bragging? Do you just believe whatever comes out of people’s mouths?”
A blogger reposts a thread on the internet, saying, “I’m so poor that I can’t even tell when someone’s showing off in front of me.”
The original post reads, “My boyfriend just got a new car. What kind of car is these keys to?”
And the comments say, “The highest end products are the plainest. My estimate is this car is at least 2 million RMB.”
“You’re way off. Mine is 12 million RMB.”
“Yeah, that’s the keys to a Panamera.”
“Jesus Christ, I thought that was the keys to a scooter. I’m literally about to throw up.”
“Hahahaha I’ll never be able to identify a rich person.”
“Before I read the comments: if someone pulled these keys out in front of me, I’d be making fun of him for buying knockoff security gates.”
