The China Show. Latest Video shows the astonishing destruction from the floods in Beijing and how the CCP is doing their best to cover it up. Literally. No, actually literally. Timecode is about 7:20 if I remember correctly.
I've been binging their videos for 2 weeks, and learning so much about how China actually works.
Oh and they are also on Odysee so you can watch there if you want!
Thanks, this was really interesting!

Oh no, not the racist sexpats. Not sure I would necessarily want to be using those guys as your source of news in China. Laowhy is an absolute piece of shit to his wife, and actually made a video of himself desecrating gravesites in Taiwan and laughing about it. Complained that his daughter looked too asian. Just an absolute piece of garbage.
They found out being condescending towards Chinese people sells right now, and that has been their entire brand since they left the country. They're probably useful in that anything they say, you can assume the exact opposite is the truth.
Wow a wumao! I didn't expect to see one here!
Give my regards to Winnie.
You know Winston and Laowhy86 are fighting for you and against the CCP right? You know they only want the oppression of the CCP to end and for China's people to be free right? You know every single episode like 5 times they will say 'and we aren't talking about the Chinese people, the Chinese people are good people, we love China, we are opposed to the CCP'?
If you want to talk smack about Laowhy then you better provide proof. I've seen what you guys do. Winston liked a comment from someone who said 'that toilet needs to be napalmed' and then all you wumao's are like 'Winston wants to napalm Asians!'
It's not working, Mr CCP Shill. Come over to the light side and help us criticise the CCP and expose their racism, oppression and corruption that is holding back China's development. Don't do it for me, do it for the Chinese people who deserve better than Xi Jinping's tyranny.
Shock, the guy who watches racists is a racist.
The white man's burden bullshit argument. Oh those poor Chinese people can't possibly really support the CPC, they are just misguided and need us brave foreigners to come save them.
Laowhy desecrating remains. His girlfriend (at the time) calls him out on it and he tells her to shut up because it makes good content. Nobody who loves China descreates their dead. You can't even use the excuse that he was confused or didn't know what it was, he was told to stop and refuses.
His treatment of his wife. Makes her sit on the floor of the car while he makes racist jokes with his family. Sorry to link to reddit, I don't keep extensive archives of these guys.
Not expecting you to suddenly change your opinion on the CPC, but these guys in particularly are indefensible and nobody should be encouraged to watch them.
😂 Because I'm using a meme made by the Chinese people that offends a single person?
Oh come on, you and I both know that you're not allowed to speak against the government in China. But we can speak out in the free world and raise awareness, and hopefully that will put more pressure on the CCP. Why do you assume I'm white bro?
On the videos, well, for his wife in the car, that's kinda what happens when you don't have enough seats in the car. Someone's gotta sit on the floor. It's been me plenty of times. You're making assumptions, I didn't see him make her sit there. I wasn't able to tell from the tiny snippet the context of the chatter, and 'racist' jokes happen among close people anyway. It doesn't mean anyone is actually racist, and from how much he harps on and on and on against racism on the podcast... well. It's clear to me.
On the grave desecration however, Laowhy has spoken about it and been regretful of his younger self's actions. I've done stupid shit before, but I'm not going to defend his actions there. I wouldn't have done it. It sounds like grave desecration, even when unintentional or unknowingly is an unforgiveable sin that you could never look past, even if I showed you proof that Laowhy is really apologetic, is that right?
