“The Chinese oligarchs are taking over!” - US oligarchs probably
Meanwhile the people from both nations are realizing how much bullshit they’ve been fed by the media about each other.
Almost. I’ve seen more Chinese users surprised that the situation in the US isn’t propaganda, like many USians needing 2 jobs just to survive, or paying incredible amounts for medical care. The bit on USians being surprised the propaganda about China being bogus is true though.
Well, I wouldn’t say many Americans need 2 jobs to survive.
Usually the people you’re referring to aren’t living as frugally as they could be, and they want to be entitled to excesses they don’t need.
They’re the people who can barely afford living in a major city, but moving out to the country isn’t “good enough” for them.
Horrendous take. The biggest issue isn’t with the workers, but the system that funnels their production to a shrinking and microscopic number of hands at the top.
Both can contribute to the problem. I’m not even blaming “the workers.” I’m blaming entitled consumers.
Americans have been taught to conflate their needs with wants, so whoever takes their wants away is a bad person.
If you’re sitting around waiting for the people at top to enact change, you’re part of the problem. We can all do something about it, and it usually starts in our wallets.
Workers are consumers, you’re blaming the working class.
Dude. How do you say “addiction” in mandarin.

It’s the same in Cantonese I think.

Should use HelloChinese instead tbh. Duolingo is more like a game than a language learning app.
this is the best app I’ve found https://www.superchinese.com/
Duolingo is good for “tourist style” language learning, where you learn some phrases, can recognise and read a few words, etc, but next to no chance of actually pulling off a proper conversation with a local.
Now the US needs to ban Duolingo for violating national security.
This sounds like such made up bullshit.
DuoLingo app reviews have been apalling lately, probably need a little boost.
How much is 216% in actual numbers?
