Whenever I see this comment on HN I always am a bit surprised: Do you not have any friends from/in China?

This conspiracy theory always gets a good chuckle out of me and my Chinese friends whenever it comes up. I have a good chunk of my family living in China and I can assure you, Chinese kids watch just as much if not more junk over there than they do in the US.

This is similar to trying to argue that America kids only play wholesome games on the Xbox or Youtube because they have parent controls.

But to my first point: surely working in tech right now you have a few Chinese coworkers. I recommend you grab lunch with them sometime (and let them choose the place to eat!)
