How do you know 98% Chinese people are happy if there is no credible, independent study? Surely any study saying Chinese are unhappy would be censored.


Here you go, independent study by York University https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/05/05/did-pande...


This one actually made me belly laugh, thanks for that.

It's not independent, a study, or by York University, it was a ccp sponsored poll performed in China, by party members, with data collated and compiled by party members.

It's rare to see propaganda crumble to so delicate an interrogation, that's some primo stuff.


And where do you get that it's a poll by party members?

The author even explicitly stated that the survey was anonymous. The author states that their findings are consistent with other studies.
