Chongqing, Hongyadong area, last night (Aug 25). Sudden thunderstorm. Two people collapse in standing water at a bus stop near the famous scenic area. Videos show them lying in the rainwater. Crowds watch. Police arrive, ambulance takes them away. Initial talk of lightning. An eyewitness later said it was a mother and daughter who stepped into the puddle in slippers and were electrocuted on the spot. One regained consciousness by the time the ambulance came; the other had not woken up. “Electricity in the water” is the phrase local netizens keep using.

In Nanjing, China, many hikers saw a hanged corpse by the roadside, dead for quite some time, with corpse water flowing out and the body already emitting a foul odor, but everyone pretended not to see it and didn't want to get involved in other people's business.

Floodwaters rushed down from Tibet, killing over many people and leaving thousands missing, yet the Chinese state media calls it the "Nepal flood." Just days before the disaster, someone had already filmed the border hydropower construction sites: nonstop blasting, rock crushers roaring away, tunnels forcibly carved into cliffs, with virtually no safety measures and environmental protection nowhere in sight. Projects like Rasuwagadhi and Upper Trishuli 3A that were washed away—all backed by Chinese capital or Chinese companies. The State government official line is that it was a glacier collapse blocking the river and then bursting. They lie without even drafting a script! The entire river valley has been turned into a construction zone—blasting, digging, and diverting the riverbed—amplifying the risks. Tibet has planned over a hundred hydropower dams, and the Jilong border crossing is being bulldozed right into glacier and seismic zones. Power sent east, water discharged south. Now a landslide dam has formed upstream, liable to burst again at any moment, and downstream Nepal and Bihar in India will be definitely be affected. Chinese obsession with infrastructure will be their own undoing.

Chinese student in New Zealand, Rita Jing (抖音 R!TA Jing), posted a video on 13 August 2026 while studying at a language school. In the video she says: “Many classmates here introduce themselves by only saying they are from Taiwan or from Hong Kong. Every time I hear this I feel speechless. Let me make it clear here: Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China. Taiwan is an inseparable part of China. There is no separate Taiwan or separate Hong Kong. The correct way is always Chinese Hong Kong, Chinese Taiwan.” Three days later (16 August), she posted another video in which she is visibly distressed, wiping tears and speaking with a shaking voice. She says the previous video caused her to receive a large volume of threatening private messages and thousands of critical comments on Instagram. She states she is “really scared,” does not want to be isolated as the only mainland Chinese student in her class, does not want to “become Mina,” and repeatedly asks people to stop scolding her. The same clip shows her packing clothes in her room. However, Subsequent reporting and her own later posts indicate she had also been trying to obtain a longer Australian student visa in order to remain overseas longer. That application was refused, and with her New Zealand visa approaching expiry she prepared to return to Shanghai. She really really doesn’t want to go back to China.

🔥 CHINESE ARROGANCE STRIKES AGAIN on AirAsia! A Chinese tourist buys two bottles of mineral water for RM8 on an AirAsia flight to Malaysia. He pays with ¥100 RMB. The crew politely gives him RM44 change. Instead of thanking them, he gets angry and demands: “Why only RM44?! It should be RM92!” He actually thought RMB and Malaysian Ringgit are 1:1. Then he takes out his phone and records a video, acting like he caught AirAsia scamming him. Zero research. Zero respect. Pure entitlement. Reality: ¥100 RMB is only worth around RM60+. The crew gave him the correct change. This is the typical “Ugly Chinese Tourist” behavior — no humility, no preparation, just arrogance and demands when other countries don’t follow China’s rules. Moral of the story: Some Chinese travelers still treat foreign countries like their own backyard with zero respect for local currency or customs. Educate yourselves before traveling. #ChineseTourist #AirAsia #UglyChinese #TravelFail #Malaysia

In Pingbu Village, Xinheng Town, Jieyang, Guangdong, several minors beat and burned to death a mother dog and her 4 puppies. In the full video, it's not "mischievous"—it's cold-blooded. The puppies made no sound, the mother dog had no way out, leaving only human shame in the end. Don't let this incident disappear. Forward it.

In Henan Province, China, a pet owner had been raising a Labrador Retriever weighing about 60 kilograms. As a result, they discovered that the dog ate too much and, due to its excessively overweight body, no longer wanted to keep it, so they contacted a local dog meat vendor to sell it off. After the Labrador was brought to the scene, it clearly resisted, repeatedly trying to evade capture by the staff and continuously crying out to its owner for help. But the owner watched everything coldly from the sidelines, leaving the dog utterly heartbroken. Seeing no way to escape, the Labrador even knelt on the ground begging the dog meat vendor for mercy, letting out continuous whimpers of pleading, but in the end, it was still forcibly loaded into a cage by the vendor.

A mainland influencer filmed a hot, stained London Tube carriage and presented it as London. Wong replied, roughly: country bumpkin, you only go to the poor areas, who told you to take that line? The viral comeback was “poor people are people too.” That answers an insult. It does not answer the method. This is a standard format. Film the worst carriage, the worst street, the worst public toilet abroad. Cut it against a new metro, a cleaned-up CBD, a night shot of a top-tier Chinese city. Caption: they have fallen behind. Londoners already complain about fabric seats and no air-con on the deep lines. That can be true and still be a selected sample. The same accounts do not film a packed, ageing carriage at home and call it China. “Poor people are people too” is free to say. It costs nothing, and it skips the edit.

A Chinese tourist walked into a Chinese restaurant in Japan, reached into the live tank, lifted out two lobsters, and ran out. Staff chased him. He didn’t stop. No manifesto. No livestream. Just two lobsters that were minutes from the pot, now liberated, to where no one knows. Chinese comment sections split instantly: hero, thief, idiot, patriot. The restaurant called it theft. He called it liberation. He got away.

Mainland tourist on a Hong Kong bus. Alipay won’t go through. Fare: HK$5.10. Instead of asking for help, she starts screaming that Hong Kong is “backward,” that she is “not broke,” and that the man who told her to pay is “a disgrace to Chinese people.” A woman still paid for her. Imagine if she had just said “sorry, my Alipay isn’t working.” Someone would have tapped Octopus in three seconds. The fare was never the problem. The attitude was.

That wasn’t hesitation. It was a moment of visible disbelief. The spokesperson gives a brief pause and a knowing look. Context: A reporter claims China can destroy U.S. weapons before they reach Taiwan. That expression comes before the official response. Sometimes the pause is more honest than the statement.

She tried to leave. He chased her and forced her back by hitting her on her head. CCTV exists and well recorded. No charges followed. He wasn’t innocent — just well-connected. This is how justice works in China. And to the Western defenders still explaining why this is “nuanced”: some of you don’t support victims — you support systems.
