Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

China totally does, if you're either employed for 3+ years with a master's degree and annual salary above 500-800k RMB (depending on the province) or with a bachelor's and 5+ years work experience (same income requirements), OR have a PhD and are employed by a company listed on a Chinese (not HK) stock exchange or a government owned company/entity in a higher R&D function (no income requirements), OR are married to a Chinese and have been working for 7+ years in China (no income or education requirements).
Source: Used to live in China, qualified for 2/3 pathways and my company kept pushing me to accept residency (which I refused to be able to withdraw my social security accounts upon my planned departure).
But I digress.
Due to my Chinese wife I have quite a few touching points with "offshore Chinese" as she calls them, and there are quite a few insane ones among the diaspora. The "glory to China, but I wouldn't ever live there again" types, mostly.
And yeah those wechat hymns and crap from douyin is omnipresent. We avoid those people like the plague, but every once in a while some of them show up to events hosted by saner people and spew their bullshit.
