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.

I mean, they are still taking pretty much anyone with a bachelor's degree as an English teacher in China, Vietnam, Thailand, SA, Korea, Japan, etc. Just get a TEFL/TESOL certificate and it shouldn't be hard to find a job that will get you a work visa in another country.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
