Don't need to personally experience everything, just have people you trust.

    And how do you know these are people you can trust ? What is their experience ?

    You are asserting the reported first hand account is false or misleading based on unspecified inspecific alternative reports that you're not sourcing.

    There's a word/acronym for that behaviour, it is called FUD.

    As someone who has lived in both the US & China (i am from neither) you're drinking too much Kool-Aid and not applying enough critical thinking

    So you don't know at all, what a citation.

    Did you know that Germany personally stamps every baby with a marker tag? I don't need proof. I was just told it by a trusted friend.

    Hey, if you trust them, that's on you. I verify my sources, and when I put my trust in someone I don't do it lightly. But if your source is talking about stamping kids, then I guess that's on you to verify.

    Edit: Awww, you got banned. Well, I guess I'll see you around, though I doubt you'll have learned your lesson.
