You have to be very careful on twitter if you put out positive tweets about China, and always be civil, to never swear, or use swear words with an asterisk in, or use a v instead of a u, because if you do hundreds of paid Hong Kong trolls may complain to twitter to get your account closed down. People swear all the time on twitter, and are abusive, but a lot of people have to complain first before twitter suspends an account.    The Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI) is infamous...

This is a very good video about a poor village in China. What struck me was how happy the villagers were, especially the children, who are incredible sweet.
