SerpentZA loved his hopeful and exciting content, then he became embittered and critical of everything
Dude was like so overly positive of China, then immediately does a 180 and trash China, once he got a visa to the USA. Make me wonder if any of his praises were genuine, or just bootlicking whoever is in power. Bootlicking CCP when he's there, then bootlicks USA when he gets here. A "White-Monkey Job" as he and his friend laowhy86 calls it.
Also, dude is super weird. Why does he use "My Chinese Wife" in his video titles. Asian-fetishism? ๐ค A normal person would just use "my wife" and you can add their face to the thumbnail if you want, or just mention by name. Using "Chinese Wife" is a odd phrase to say. Like imagine a white American Youtuber uses "My Black Wife" in the video title, like that's just super weird.
His old videos were pro "cultural" China, but never really talked about the government. According to him, he left when he started noticing vans follow him around and got the hell out before disappeared.
He already has a huge library of videos talking about cultural China, but now that he's out of the country, he has both cause and freedom to criticize the government.
The Chinese doesn't refer the ethnicity in this context but cultural. So it would be more like saying "My Nigerian wife". Viewers then have an expection to see stuff cultural stuff. It also helps the search algorithms I suppose.
But yea I did kinda stop watching them as well. It was getting too much I guess.
