    Fucken a you can. One of my highschool friends is a world-top-tier mathematician and he’s spent most of his adult life working in China doing work way below his capabilities just because he gets to be left alone and live outside of the western hegemony. Mufucka turned me on to communism when we were like 12. It’s a shame really, in a better world he’d be the sort of mind that could solve serious fucking problems. But I think he’s mostly happy with how things have panned out.

    The only downside is it’s hard for ex-pat workers to have true security in China (or has been, might’ve changed VERY recently) due to restrictive visas and few pathways to full citizenship for westoids.
