We poke at one another about the Tiananmen Square protests because we have such different perspectives. Like me, she was in high school during that time, and was told the protests were minor, and that they were instigated and largely conducted by outsiders, like the US, seeking to overthrow the Chinese government. The reports of large-scale deaths is Western propaganda. She still more or less believes that story - she's been hearing it her whole life. We sometimes (rarely) exchange articles about the incident. I've always appreciated the back-and-forth because, even though it's a serious topic, we keep it lighthearted.

Anyway, she purchased her iPhone in the US. All her online accounts, except for WeChat, are associated to US-based services. Yeah, I fuucked up; I meant to send the message over iMessage, where we've never had a problem.
