J_Steezit's so weird to be angry about someone representing a communist government that violates human rights regularly!
People only see that she’s famous and making money which excuses everything for them. They’re so wrapped into the social media fast money mindset. Being honorable, loyal to your roots, and down to earth earth doesn’t appear to matter.
i mean that was certainly part of her decision, that and inspiring chinese people in general to ski. that and money i'm sure, but she's set on money either way (like, really set)
look i don't think it's super cool that she decided to rep china rather than the US but it's her choice and it really, really does not matter at all. she's no more responsible for the CCP's misdeeds than any of us are for buying half our skis and other products from china. i buy local as much as i possibly can. do you? or does your concern only extend to bibs at the olympics?
we all dislike the CCP, no shit, but claiming you have some serious moral concern regarding a teenage girl skier is just Internet Guy shit, it's hard to take seriously

idk man, why does Lebron for example get so much shit when he hasn't even endorsed the Chinese government, just remains silent but she gets praise and respect when she literally did endorse it? not even a lebron fan just seems like a wild double standard
Shes way more responsible than your average consumer. Just as every other American who goes over to China shills out for the CCP is way more responsible as they are actively going out of their way to spread CCP propaganda. You could even say she is way more responsible than the average shill because she did a ton to help the CCP gain a lot of face. Timing is also key here as they had just been proven to be genociding Uyghurs Muslims in Xinjiang so a big gain of face was really what the CCP were looking for in Beijing. Its kinda hard to explain just how important the idea of face (面子) is in China. This is a lot bigger than you chosing to buy Vishnus or 1000s.

You guys actually sound insane. China isn’t even communist, have you ever considered that 90% of the shit you BUY in the FREE MARKET comes from CHINA? I swear the word communism has lost all meaning and now people just use it to describe any totalitarian government.

What the government names itself doesn’t mean much, the Nazis called themselves socialists but in history classes you learn that they were actually just fascists.
With regard to time, she actually started to represent China in 2019

Jemschina is probably one of the most capitalist economies i can think of
Right? it’s literally hyper capitalism without human rights and labor unions. Do people think communism involves selling all of your resources to other countries for profit?
