There’s a strange hatred of all things China in the West—it’s time to debunk outdated myths and find out what's true.

Over the past couple of years, I’ve had several conversations about China, exploring why much of what we believe is either fabricated or completely false.

For example,

Chinese people are oppressed
China has a social credit score
There is a genocide of Uyghurs
The Chinese government harvests organs
The Tiananmen Square massacre

All of the above narratives are bunk.

Lee Barrett is a British YouTuber who has lived in China for over a decade. He runs a really great YouTube channel where he posts videos about his daily life there.

He chatted with me about censorship, oppression, food, culture, and why many Westerners hate China without ever visiting.

It’s not a utopia, but nor is it some totalitarian hellhole.

Oh, by the way, he didn’t use a VPN or anything to dodge the Great Firewall of China. He just recorded with me like any other guest. 😎
