Zhang Yazhou was sitting in the passenger seat of her Tesla Model 3 when she said she heard her father’s panicked voice: The brakes don’t work! Approaching a red light, her father swerved around two cars before plowing into an SUV and a sedan and crashing into a large concrete barrier.

Stunned, Zhang gazed at the deflating airbag in front of her. She could never have imagined what was to come: Tesla sued her for defamation for complaining publicly about the car’s brakes — and won. A Chinese court ordered Zhang to pay more than $23,000 in damages and publicly apologize to the $1.1 trillion company.

      Not China as a country saying it, the Chinese doing it, the normal people, that was especially a topic after Covid, but they also compare it to the personality cult around Kim and Xi, and I can see the same happening around Trump. I guess you can read about it on Chinese social media if you speak the language.

      I heard it from my wife and her Chinese relatives in private conversations.
