    I’m sorry if I wrote too much! I would have chunked things up a bit more if I had known.

    I do hope this has been interesting. That Harvard study is particularly useful in breaking down the (racist/orientalist) idea that the Chinese people are all somehow under a magic spell that controls them all through either omnipotent threat of harm or propaganda. A silly premise for a society.

      Nah don’t worry, it’s much easier to pretend I’m normal, since I can fake it pretty well. I just don’t want to disappoint you with a sub-par conversation partner, and I’m struggling to parse, anyway. Thanks for the starting points, I’ll dig deeper at my own pace.
