The young child at the end feeding his little pet is so heartwarming, and heartbreaking at the same time 😢 * I really hope this child is safe since that video was taken 🙁

[whiteboyy]

Bro, that old lady was so hungry she's eating leaves off the bush, damn thats just heart breaking.

That little girl at the end, feeding grass to a gopher and happily smiling that her small gift was accepted by that tiny creature, gives me HOPE that humanity Ain't Dead Yet there. Who needs dolls that need batteries?!

The family dynamics are not different at all tbh. This really explains why my Chinese relatives are so obsessed with keeping a perfect image at the cost of emotional and psychological well being

How does a country with enough homes to house 2 billion people and a population of 1 billion, still have such a homeless problem?

I met some of these people in Thailand after COVID. There was a small group of Chinese who kept to themselves at our hostel. One day I overheard them in Chinese repeatedly talking about my country Mexico which got me to talk with them. They were quite happy to learn I could speak Chinese but more excited to learn I was from Mexico. They started asking me a bunch of questions about crossing the border into the US to which I bluntly told them I had no idea about and discouraged it. I asked where they got these crazy ideas from and they said that people were posting videos and tutorials of how to cross into the US online. The Chinese government hard handed approach to COVID was what made them leave. They wanted to go both for the freedom and economic benefits but they had a very naive and overly optimistic view of the US. They saw the high wages US workers were making but had no idea as to the incredibly high living costs associated with living there. I tried explaining that there was a housing shortage and that their expectations for life in the US would set them for disappointment but they either didn't believe me or brushed off my criticism. I also tried encouraging them to go to German or Australia instead (places which I feel would be better and easier for them to enter) but they seemed dead set on just going to the US. Unfortunately I don't know where they are now as Wechat is blindly and constantly blocking and deleting accounts in SE Asia without

Aw that little kid happily feeding grass to his tiny friend was so adorable and heartwarming. I hope his soul never gets crushed 😞

[brettstarks]

Turns out that encouraging everyone from rural areas to flock to cities and become knowledge workers and having an economy that revolves around a huge property bubble isn’t a great idea!

[RILDIGITAL]

It's easy to overlook the struggles of individuals when discussing global economies. I agree that there's so much beneath the surface that the world needs to see.

[clamhammer]

Lets be real for a moment. The homeless (men) in America rarely receive anything but hatred from anyone not also in that predicament.

Thank you for showing the footage. I live in Sz and what I see when I go for my midnight walk is exponentially alarming. Btw, I have been here for 5 years now. A lot has changed.

Remember Chairman Mao? Here's what he did:
- He renounced ancient chinese culture, including Confucius and Buddhism, which value kindness and tolerance.
- He eliminated all intellectuals, land owners, rich and famous people.
- He also told the youth to condemn their parents and neighbors publicly, usually in front of a crowd.
- What he had left were uneducated laborers, poor peasants and mean youths. Those are the ancestors of the current mainland chinese today.

"Don't touch her! Stop touching her!" LOL!

Thank you . Always enjoyed watching your videos back a few years ago. Great insight. I am now subscribed.

When I was in Hong Kong in 2010, it was $60 US. I was there for 5 days and spent $300. Good times, good times.

It happened before. During the 90s when the inefficiently run state owned factories started closing down, it caused massive lay offs in the North-Eastern parts of China. Husbands ferry their wives to 'work' after dark then went to pick them up for home when the night's work finishes.

My dad went to China for business before, he said it was heartbreaking. They try to show only the polished but he saw some of the worst as well due to a business friend. Very very sad.

[justanotherhuman]

I worked there for a year as a Commercial Pilot. It was tragic and heartbreaking what I saw. i could not believe it.

[fergalnewton]

i've literally seen this in japan and korea too this is not exclusive to china not trying to defend china but if your using prostitution as an indicator of a failing economy i guess all of the world is failing because i see this in every country i visit🤣 🤣🤣🤣

[Deprived_Dolphin]

While I’m sure prostitution has always been a major problem. The amount of YOUNG women who are so disenfranchised to have to resort to this, or sold into sex slavery.

I pray those women find a way to sustain themselves
