People in the West often think Socialism and multiculturalism go hand-in-hand. In reality, most socialist countries in the past and today are actually ethnostates.

Oh how could i forget the famous ethnostates of the USSR and Cuba

      Probably a Gen 1.5/2 Chinese in the diaspora. Cultural orphans questioning their national identities are the worst kind of Chinese, worst than Boba liberals sometime

      That’s just pathetic larp. Actual people “working for the Chinese authorities” aren’t wasting time on Western social media and they certainly won’t be going “uh aktually, I work for the PRC but I won’t tell you my official title.” This is “my dad works for Nintendo” level of larp.

      And as a final note, the account is virulently racist towards Indian people, so Indian Twitter did some digging and realized that the pfp is just stolen from some random Chinese photographer. Like do people really think this is actually them lol

          No, but it is very weird if someone actually from China described it as an ‘ethnostate’ when there are many more ethnicities in China than just Han. People here are mostly responding with data and arguments re: immigration, but this isn’t what the person is saying. They’re saying they’re against multiculturalism in China, which would mean different ethnicities and cultures living in China, which already exists. They’re not necessarily discussing immigration.

          It does sound like something a Westoid would say to spread propaganda but also with the glaring ignorance of the situation on the ground of someone who hasn’t lived there.
