Not at all challenging, considering the average CCTV (what a fitting name for a chinese tv station) anchor's range of emotional expression is limited to a knob.

Might as well just produce a deepfake anchor with Xi's ugly ass face instantly traumatizing millions of Chinese children, who knows how many falun gong infants were sacrificed to save the poor sick Chinese elite (they actually eat the fucking placenta for supposedly viagra effect jesus fucking christ im outta here never EVER gonna catch me going to China)

Please try to not be so polemic and disagreeable in your posts, and instead bring a spirit of respect here. Chinese people are human beings.

Pointing out the crimes of the PRC is not disrespectful.

Except, perhaps, to the PRC.

> Chinese people are human beings.

On the one hand I didn't want to post this because it kinda grossed me out and might ruin someone's day or something -- on the other hand, I "totally could see it being a thing in Asia", just because of the other powdered animal stuff; but wasn't aware of it being a thing, period, and I guess that would describe many people. And some of the sentences in that article are really quite something, oh my.

I'm not understanding the relevance here, could you explain?

[PavlovsCat]

I already did? OP said they placenta eating is a thing in China, and

> I "totally could see it being a thing in Asia", just because of the other powdered animal stuff; but wasn't aware of it being a thing [everywhere], period, and I guess that would describe many people

so I shared my, uhh, information, instead of just letting that stereotype kinda linger.

Maybe you're so bought into an "us vs them" mentality that you equated fair-mindedness with "shilling".
