    “At least I’m not in China”, I mutter just as the force feeding tube is shoved down my throat and my wrist shackles are reattached to my ankle shackles.

      Right now, both governments suck, but Americans are usually more rebellious than the average mainland Chinese, which has always been something I liked about the US. I mean you hear about all the protests in the US? Widespread protests like these NEVER happens in mainland China. My mother still tells me to shut to about my anti-PRC views even tho we’re not there anymore, and now have citizenship in another country, and I’m never going there again. Like the whole mindset of people are different. I have 50% hopes that Americans can turn this around, I have like zero hope about PRC, it’s doomed, and I’ve already mentally given up on it. My homehand is occupied by tyranny and a population that just absolutely apathetic about the situation and doesn’t give a shit.
