Excellent article. I’ll go even further- I bet a lot of these PMC Asian “explainers” can’t even read (Chinese) - they “heard” from someone that WeChat was filled with misinformation and they just repeat that because they can’t verify it themself.

I love how you write about the real views of real people. Not the cartoons that are drawn by our clannish "journalists" who never venture outside the tony boundaries of their class neighborhoods.

But I do have to quibble with your definition of them as the "intelligentsia."

Educated (or indoctrinated) and entitled? For sure. Intelligent? Not by a longshot. Nobody who gets things so consistently wrong is intelligent.
