A weakening economy and increasing political repression are forcing ever more Chinese people to emigrate. Spurred by TikTok, many are seeking more sustainable conditions in the United States.

    I think we should force you to live in South Dakota, since it needs a little revitalizing.

      Seeing two of your comments now, I feel you have a bit of a bee in your bonnet about immigrants being forced to live places?

      Care to share more? I don’t mean to pre-judge you, I just feel there’s more behind your feelings on the matter than I understand yet.

        How about, and this might be a little crazy, not forcing people to live somewhere?

          You’re right. They can just stay in their current nations if they don’t want to move to rural America.

            I think forcing immigrants to live in bumfuck nowhere places because you like those places is stupid. You don’t even have an actual argument for it. I think metal music and manual cars should be more popular, so let’s force immigrants to only listen to metal and only drive manual vehicles lol.

            Are you also gonna claim that you’re pro-freedom and pro-small government while forcing people to live in your backwater hometown?

              You still can’t comprehend what you are reading and I’m done repeating myself.

              Goodbye.
