My therapist made a comment about how China is a failed socialist experiment because they have 2-3 year olds working in factories. I responded “So we’ve been told.” She looks at me like I’m crazy. (Not a great look for a therapist) “I’ve not seen any evidence of that.”
“Because they’re such a closed country!”
“Which means you have no evidence to your point either?”
“Well, missionaries… anyway!”

If you think about it, this is the only explanation that makes sense.
I never thought about it like that. But you are probably right
The Immortal Zhuxi lies within his crystal tomb, ever vigilant. It is said that a million peppercorn souls are consumed a day to fuel His immense hunger from the psychic strain of repelling the ravenous Sparrow from the borders of the Middle Kingdom.
Yeah they were brought up in the Gucci and Chanel factories.
Of course, that must be why they have never spilled the beans on the toddler factories, they own them!
What’s this about beans?
They say don’t cry over spilt beans… but I do
If you do go there and report back, they’ll tell you that all the people you see are actors (like North Korea) or that they’re the upper strata of society so not representative of the gajillions hidden away in prison camps or whatever they need to pivot to.
