This is a general discussion thread for any questions or topics that you feel don't deserve their own thread, or just for random thoughts and comments.
The sidebar guidelines apply here too and these threads will be closely moderated, so please keep the discussions civil, and try to keep top-level comments China-related.
Comments containing offensive language or CCJ terms will be removed without notice or warning.
Can you smell that? Fresh air, an autumn zephyr that makes you want to just hit Pause for a moment. It’s damn near enough to wash away the fetid stench of a monthslong meme assault (a stink still emanating from the below-the-fold squabbles, but nevermind that for now). The r/China AQI was just way, way up there, but I’d say that it’s finally back below 150, so now we’re only unhealthy for sensitive groups. We have the new moderators to thank for that: u/AONomad, u/vilekangaree, and u/komnemos. They’ve been massively helpful for enforcing regulatory compliance and, now, for overhauling our regulations. To that end, we’re updating the r/China Rules to codify and clarify the changes that you may be noticing already.
No Racism or Offensive Language. Be respectful, avoid sexist, racist or offensive language. Homophobic/sexist/bigoted slurs may get you banned without warning. That includes terms like "sexpat" and "Chinaman", or anything that paints broad strokes with nothing to back it up. If in doubt please err on the side of caution.
No meta-drama or subreddit drama. Do not report or crosspost drama from other subreddits (e.g. getting banned, problematic content). If you have a concern about the way the subreddit is being handled or don’t like the content being submitted, report it, submit content you do like, or send us feedback.
Not China-related. Posts must be related to China.
Inappropriate/Sensationalized Headlines. When linking to news articles, please use the original title, or a straightforward and accurate one of your own. Editorialized, provocative, inaccurate, sensationalist, and/or misleading titles may result in the removal of the post. If you add an opinion byline, please ensure that it is immediately clear which part is opinion.
Circlejerking. Low-effort circlejerking mean to deride swaths of people or troll others into a debate you don’t really care about is not allowed. Posts and comments that are deemed circlejerking will be removed without notice, and posters who use them may be banned.
Media policy. Memes, images, videos, gifs, and other types of media are allowed but may be subject to strict moderation. Media regarding real life people/events should provide appropriately sourced background context or risk deletion. On a spectrum from daily life musings to cultural commentary to political soapboxing, moderation of media will tighten. Media closely related to topics that have already been discussed at length (e.g. Tiananmen Square, Winnie the Pooh) will likely be deleted.
You can review the Content Policy here. We want to highlight three points: posting/commenting behavior that (1) threatens, harasses, or bullies; (2) encourages or incites violence; or (3) is personal and confidential information is totally unacceptable at r/China.
We have a no-tolerance policy here. If you’re doxxing, threatening to dox someone, or advocating for violence against a single person or a whole group of people, you will be banned. We hope to root out harassment already through our Rule# 1, but please note that we have a Snoo-granted mandate to do some righteous weeding and pruning now and then.

Lui said she was scared and complied. She said she tried to cover her private parts with her hands, but an officer used a pen to hit her hand. The officer prompted her to open her legs by tapping her inner thighs using the pen.
She was also told to crouch and stand up three times, but she could not do so because of her injury. The officer then told her to turn around: “When I turned, I saw the other officer starring at me with pleasure,” she said.
