>state-sponsored false-flag spy agency
>irrelevant

Yeah, take this Bill Maher guy for example. He swears on TV, hilarious right?
They didn't get anything done and the actual Maoist didn't trust them for not participating in their actions.

no can do你这个Eбaнныe виaбy
@一路順風

>actual maoist
did they get anything done?

简体字比繁体字好多了

you owe us money for sabotaging or joint science project/venture to blast a rocket off to Mars.

pay now.

用簡體字只是你的習慣
>demanding money
Petty bourgeoisie mentality.
They dif after they grew up and became the serious political party the SP is now. Maoists in western Europe were roleplayers at best.

That girl is super sexy. I hope she participted in our countrys eugenics program and married successful chinese husband and had lots of genetically superior chinese babies.

thank you op for sharing this pic. saved

it is money they owe us for destroying our rocket. otherwise we would have reached to mars before India.

How much did you spend on Sup Forums passes, friendo?

你們突然從哪裡來的? 怎麼不需要vpn?

zero dollars. i am elite chinese hacker who used his brain to bypass takahiros range ban on chinese ips.

you owe us a rocket.

>tfw being a proxy fag prohibits muhself from condemning proxyfagging justly

b-but it's different, r-right? ai mu banned by hiroyuki a-and not for shitposting!

her husband is ai wei wei

>Ai Weiwei
That names makes my professors go into a frenzy.
>hurr, no one in China knows Ai Weiwei, he doesn't deserve the attention
Damage control perhaps.

sounds chinese. im satisfied.

elaboration on these professors regarding china pls

This seems to be a good choice amazon.cn/现代汉语词典/dp/B01MA1KQC0/ref=pd_cp_14_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=NRZ9BF0NCXT0E4XC6QG6

I'm unsure if there's some authorative Chinese-Japanese dictionary that exists though

Well, sinology professors here are apologists for the Chinese regime. Their idea of having a nuanced view of China is being a red guard of sorts. I am exaggerating and they're not all like that, but still.
Maybe the Chinese government pays them to hold those positions, maybe they hold those positions because they're sinophiles and oikophobes anyway. I am not sure.

Also there's the 大漢和辞典 but that's a character dictionary

I'm halfway trough the James Legge translation of Tao te Ching.
Pretty pleasant and the notes are nice, even if they feel a bit unprofessional (It's 110 years old, so I forgive)

>apologists for the Chinese regime
wew ain't that like unicorn
how old are they? do they live through the 60s? they lived through the 60s don't they
which institution are you in user

tell me about how now you feel about herr.李耳 if you pls

The only Dutch university with sinology.
Some did live through the sixties, the true old guard that is. Some are much younger. Even some of the young students copy the attitude.

Meanwhile the actual Chinese people working there are quite mild and moderate. I guess Global Times readers don't work abroad and in education anyway.

I'm sorry,but didn't quite catch the meaning.

李耳 = 老子

Oh,I get it now.

It's pretty good.
Relaxing.
The second translation I'm reading,
I own one more partial translation I think.(Gotta check the collection)

I read it to blow off steam.

Lao Tzi's philosophy of "don't push too hard" should be used more in the west.We stress and work too much.

>Global Times readers
kek

ain't ya surprized dat dis old fucker got it all almost 3000 years ago while we are still dipshits?

Weird how the west never developed something similar on a grand scale.
Maybe because of the ethnic conflicts.

How much for cute Chinese girlfriend?

lifetime chastity
well maybe not

谢谢您 ^_^

mobile.nytimes.com/2017/01/10/world/asia/china-taiwan-strait-aircraft-carrier-trump.html
HAHAHAHAHAAHHA

You should know as a Canadian.
Are Global Times readers laughingstocks over there or do you kek at me for misunderstanding something?

Meh.

the former
for me they are

lmao of course he is

What is chairman Xi going to do next, get his dick sucked by an intern?
When I read Global Times, Poe's law kicks in for me. It's like a caricature of the government worshipping and easily offended Chinese obsessed with self-aggrandizement.

怎好、我愛中国 (*・ω・)

fun that i reckon global times adopts some of Sup Forums's laws
>don't believe in "truth", believe in victory hail victory yayyyy!
global times' lesson for me is nae take "truth" for granted by sitting inside your own little fucking pond ignoring the universe passing by, stride on! breach and shine!
and shit do you minor in politics?

朋友你好

Sup Forums is pretty different. They like to make fun of and transgess whatever is considered trendy and acceptable. Global times parrots the party line with some sensational spice on top of it.
>and shit do you minor in politics?
No, but I tend to do well whenever politics come up in my major, even though I disagree with most of what the teachers think and say. I guess they can appreciate that I have and opinion of my own and can back it up with arguments and source material.

你怎么能爱中国?那里人没礼貌、空气不纯洁,过于糟糕的、质量高的东西和食物太贵了、网络不仅限制的、而且网速慢得不能再慢。由于社会主义他们失去了中国的古典文化,连日本的保存好了中国的文化,何况台湾。

你试试把我说服我说得不正确。

你怎麼持著這種看法硬要用簡體字?

中国的生活很方便。人是又友好又欢迎的。饭好吃,你每时间可以找到饭。 什么东西都找得容易。网络的限制没有问题。中国文化很强 lol 我写得不太好,不好意思 :D

太懒在windows把键盘换成繁体字。

>sensational
can't say i really Sup Forums that's for sure, but whether politically incorrect or correct, politics in general is about getting people pepped up and that's equally unhealthy ain't it

>食物太贵了
not if you cook
>由于社会主义他们失去了中国的古典文化
meme

>网络的限制没有问题
you reckon?

Yeah-- I have a VPN though obviously-- but I just use Baidu or QQ most of the time desu I just the VPN to look at porn and post.

>but I just use Baidu
您是外国人是吧?

我是。我真的是一个美国人

百度您用得惯?

但是百度是垃圾。在百度里什么都搜索不着。都是广告。

学习雷锋好榜样
忠于革命忠于党
爱憎分明不忘本
立场坚定斗志强
立场坚定斗志强

旗高举兮部列张,
赳赳队员豪气长。
同仁殉道死几许,
赤党负隅犹猖狂。
异哉盘桓复何念?
一统吾德威名扬!
革命广援空阡陌,
卍字旗追纳粹党。
前进前进又前进,
解放洪宇备荣光!
为饼食兮抗志在,
不悔自由英雄郎!
正此日兮正此时,
迎枪饮弹谁惜伤?
德意志兮万万岁,
灵魂突进前途广。
领袖圣恩满宇宙,
苦难过后唯天堂!

unconventionally tho

Sure you are. Not being one is a crime where you live.

no it's not a crime

Even when you do so publicly? What is the censorship for then?

提出猫吧

censorship isn't inquisition
don't go out and yell "down with the communist party" tho

Read the research artice by King, Pan and Roberts from Havard 2013. Very enlightening.

"How Censorship in China Allows Government Criticism but Silences Collective Expression"

American Political Science Review Vol. 107, No. 2 May 2013
doi:10.1017/S0003055413000014

Sorry for the format; I just copypasted from the pdf paper I have lying around here.

Abstract:

We offer the first large scale, multiple source analysis of the outcome of what may be the most
extensive effort to selectively censor human expression ever implemented. To do this, we have
devised a system to locate, download, and analyze the content of millions of social media
posts originating from nearly 1,400 different social media services all over China before the Chinese
government is able to find, evaluate, and censor (i.e., remove from the Internet) the subset they deem
objectionable. Using modern computer-assisted text analytic methods that we adapt to and validate in
the Chinese language, we compare the substantive content of posts censored to those not censored over
time in each of 85 topic areas. Contrary to previous understandings, posts with negative, even vitriolic,
criticism of the state, its leaders, and its policies are not more likely to be censored. Instead, we show
that the censorship program is aimed at curtailing collective action by silencing comments that represent,
reinforce, or spur social mobilization, regardless of content. Censorship is oriented toward attempting
to forestall collective activities that are occurring now or may occur in the future—and, as such, seem to
clearly expose government intent.

tl;dr

you can say that Xi Jinping is an asshole and should be shot and this wont get you censored.

But if you say that "let's go to tiananmen tomorrow and demand the overthrowal of the party", that post will get censored.

But even if you say "let's all go to tiananmen tomorrow to thank the glorious communist party for building us a new highway and bridge etc." it will get censored as well, since this could cause the mobilization of people.

Anyone else seen this Wired documentary on Shenzhen: youtube.com/watch?v=SGJ5cZnoodY

Really makes me want to go

Some nice toys from there soon:

as soon as you hear the honking horns and smell the cigarette smoke, you know you're in china

Thanks, I'll get to reading it. Looks like playing dumnb and being a little provocative is still a good way to obtain interesting information.

>that lad with bow tie

Why do you like Chinese classics and philosophy? I'm curious, we never study them here

the aspiration of making senses out of things usually comes as hard and desperate as having enough to eat
those wise chinks looked it in the face

It just happened to grow on me when I was learning classical Chinese. Many are attracted to the mystery of the 道德經. They should know that 莊子 is superior.

您看完齐物论还说这种话?

because i'm chinese?

For one reason, chinese text has excellent mutual intelligibility over grand time span, that is like inscription text on excavated artifact from warring states or even earlier Zhou or Shang ( 2-3 centuries BC and beyond ) can be published on mass media and spurred discussion.
Which is like text on roman/greek artifact, except that not much people understand classical latin or (ionic/doric/attic) greek that well, that made publishing these texts on media pointless.

On the other hand, Chinese had great literary and historiography tradition, that's why you had heard of soo many "china had a saying", because there are a lot of historical occurrence chinese can refer modern life to.


With a fairly accessible nebulous archive of ancestor's experiences, brings a grand world view which sinks one into it.

You are from Singapore, which means your ancestors are probably from Fujian. These ancient thinkers you talked about thought of your ancestors as subhuman beasts, half man and half fish in some cases.
還沒,我忙著寫作文,好煩。

这边还流行拜孔子

i come from shanxi where people get khand hard
what matters is that the chinese language circulates among us
even you are now a spiritual offspring of them don't you deny that
