if you're asking if i was 100% of the time sure of what i was eating, the answer is no.Have you ever tried the bat sandwich?

You can ask, but it doesn't mean anyone is forced to oblige.
If someone won't stop filming in a public space upon request, you can always leave the area.
But there's no good reason for escalation.
Really? I thought the entire population were spies. All 1.4 billion of them.No, it really isn't. This is fearmongering. The vast majority of Chinese people are not spies. They are just people working to provide for their families. We're living in the red scare 2.0. Propaganda is going to come out from both sides. We did the same shit to the Japanese, we should have learned our lesson.
People actually believe this though…. I know you’re joking but they’re not. That nice Chinese lady who hands you your takeout food is actually a CCP spyReally? I thought the entire population were spies. All 1.4 billion of them.
Damn right. I walk on egg shells and NEVER get loud with the natives. Seems most of the time they feel entitled to act the way they would in their own homeland.The arrogance always blows me away lol
I’m always scared shitless to do anything when travelling. It must take a lot of balls to act aggressively in another country while travelling.
Of course. There is no legal imperative to do a lot of things in society. I don’t legally have to:
- take the shopping cart back after using it
- flush public toilets after using them
- say please and thank you when dealing with shopping staff
It’s not illegal to be a dickhead. I get that.
However, if your actions in society are making other people uncomfortable and it wouldn’t really be a big inconvenience to just politely agree to delete the footage that had the Chinese people on it, then you are deliberately being provocative.
He may legally be within his rights to film anyone and everyone, but that doesn’t make it morally right or conducive to a polite society.

This video got my jimmies all rustled. They don’t want to be filmed but come over and get in his video?
If this guy was in China and tried to tell them what to do they’d tell him to fuck off.
I lived as a foreigner in Europe and Asia.
I tried my best to respect my host country and their laws and customs. Sure, I had complaints but realized in the end I was only a visitor and they owed me nothing.
The balls on these people.

I'm very cynical towards "viral" youtube videos from prolific "content creators", and especially after looking at his other videos.
If he didn't orchestrate it, he's certainly milking it.
He's definitely milking it.
But so is that Chinese girl who initially approached him. She's on Chinese social media trying to play the victim and attempting to get a following.
