    these gusano stories always have a big hole in the middle of the narrative, a lie of omission where they leave out misconduct that led to consequences and you’re supposed to infer it was just capriciousness by the government

    like we are supposed to assume the government just randomly selected a lawyer to have their career ruined for no reason, I guess

      “I was just doing some weirdo fratboy hazing shit and the government said ‘What the fuck’ and took away my diploma! It was only 228 pounds of cherry jelly, jeez.”

      “In Cuba, we were upper-middle-class,” Vivian said. "My grandfather was a bank vice president; my father worked for another bank and also wrote comedy sketches. We lived with extended family in a chic apartment. My sister and I had our own room; my brother had his own; we had a maid who lived in a small room behind the kitchen. She was a Spaniard and blind in one eye. I was a little scared of her."

          It really is eye opening going back to some of those old articles and realising just how heavy they are on the pro-US propaganda.

      I think it is a parody maybe but I thought it was funny enough to show.

      The famous tweet about the monopoly on eggs wasn’t a parody, and it was more absurd.

      It was a man being interviewed in Georgia and he said if Stalin killed your grandfather he must have had a reason.

    I wonder what you’d have to do to be stripped of your career as a lawyer by the CCP.

      Always better to go straight to a dictionary/Wikipedia than trust Google Translate:

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanjian

      In China, the word hanjian (traditional Chinese: 漢奸; simplified Chinese: 汉奸; pinyin: Hànjiān; Wade–Giles: han4-chien1) is a pejorative term for those seen as traitors to the Chinese state and, to a lesser extent, Han Chinese ethnicity. The word hanjian is distinct from the general word for traitor, which could be used for any country or ethnicity. As a Chinese term, it is composed of the Chinese characters for “Han” and “traitor”. Han is the majority ethnic group in China; and Jian, means treacherous, and in Chinese legal language, it could also refer to illicit sex. Implied by this term was a Han Chinese carrying on an illicit relationship with the enemy. Hanjian is often worded as “collaborator” or “collaborationist” in the West.
