I used to be very pro-China until I went to college. Like I used to regularly watch videos on Taoist mysticism, watch the Tianamen Square military parades, etc.

I really disliked the international students from mainland China in my college. They were really loud, broke all the rules, only hung out with their own people, and the worst part was that they loved cooking that mala hotpot thing in the dorms every other day and it stunk up the whole place. No idea why they love that shit. They always throw the vegetables and the used oil into the communal bathroom sink and never clean it up.

Since then I disliked China. No need for CIA-paid propaganda, the Chinese people themselves made me hate them.
