How about you stop with the nationalism?

People in China are actual human beings, not part of a hive mind. They react to individual incentives.

Yep, they are human beings forced by the government to hide the truth under the guise of “harmony” with the threat of much worse.

Also, you can criticize the Chinese government without having any issues with Chinese people. Learn the difference or life is going to be hard.

You're literally just agreeing with me, but in a condescending tone. My point is that not literally every Chinese person is "conspiring" to "fake" a "veneer" because they're "scared", because people != government. It's GP who needs to learn the difference.

If they work with the government to participate in this data taking scheme, they are conspiring to fake a veneer. They just have no choice.
