    That’s nice. When I was a kid my dad worked in China, and they confiscated our passports, so we literally had to flee the country.

    So there’s also that side of the coin.

        My dad had a work visa for a company and when his contract was up they held his passport saying he was to continue working for the company.

        So no. Not like ICE.

        Also, we’re talking about China, not how shit America is right now. Maybe try and stay on topic.

          I’m not sure why you think your dad is the fucking topic to be honest.

            Because you’re pretending like China is some fucking paradise when they literally tried to keep my family from leaving the fucking country?

            We had to hide in a shipping freighter to get out of the country. But sure, go ahead and move to China, citizen.

            If you don’t want people to respond to your room temperature take on something don’t post it.

              No, it was not. He tried to make it about that, true.

              Show me where it says “and now let’s have a conversation about some wet who got scared because he went to China, that’s the only thing that’s relevant now?”

              I don’t mind the story about his poor, sad daddy, everyone gets to share an anecdote. But to suggest his father being pathetic is on-topic but US citizens being massively hypocritical isn’t is weak sauce.

              I’m sure the US’s ICE concentration camps are happy-fun-joy-camps, they probably even have Burger King for all I care, but that doesn’t change the fact that you lot lost the moral high ground long ago, and one story about a wet who got scared doesn’t change that.
