996 sounds like amazing labour conditions
Literally illegal in China
Literally allowed in practice
No actually, you're just a racist making assumptions.
Not necessarily. You don't know why they're making that claim.
I live in Korea, where the letter of the labor laws are quite strong. However, they're not enforced. Workers don't sue companies because they're either afraid to rock the boat due to cultural norms or afraid they will develop a reputation and become unhirable.
Korea and China are very distinct cultures, but there are key facets that are common between them. Confucian (or at least neo-Confucian in Korea) values prioritize maintaining the peace and deferring to authority. This is one of several factors that causes Koreans to endure intense working hours, and I'm more willing to believe Chinese folks overwork a lot due to the few shared values.
You're also making assumptions though. And like pointed out elsewhere, mentioning Tiananmen Square still gets silenced so we're kinda forced to assume one way or another and I generally don't believe the state that is doing the silencing. That's not racist and it's messed up to jump to that accusation so quickly
No it doesn't. It's called the 6/4 event there. Do you EVEN KNOW WHAT HAPPENED?

There's a concerning amount of gaslighting going on in this thread. There absolutely was and is silencing going on around Tiananmen Square: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests_and_massacre#Contemporary_issues
What about the Tiananmen square massacre?
You understand my claim is that there topic gets censored right? None of that is even attempting to be evidence to the contrary. I guess you're trying to say they're stomping down on lies spreading? That's still censorship and I am still highly sceptical of a state that does that. It's so weird that you want to eat that up. You weren't there. You have to, again like I said, make assumptions about which sources to believe
Anyone can search for the june 4th incident there, its not censored. You've been eating up western propaganda for their failed color revolution.
Fine, from Red Notes very own eula, your can't:
You cannot disagree with the states narrative
There’s a concerning amount of gaslighting, so here’s a NATOpedia link.
Well you're clearly a nato spy doing a counter psyop so I can ignore anything you say too. See how dumb that sounds?
