China’s bourgeoisie are just as insufferable, or even more, than those in the west. I watched a doc a while ago, and there was this long extended scene where a bunch of them go to a simulation of a fancy French dinner party. Like they want to be westerners so badly it hurts, but all the can muster is this type of tacky simulacra. A bit like the housing developments in Dubai, which are just (bad) simulations of other regions in the world, a bit like those images.
On the bright side, China being a socialist country that retains an extant bourgeoisie class firmly leashed by the CPC means we get to see billionaires get executed occasionally for their crimes against humanity. That’s a novelty I’m not sure exists anywhere else in the world.

There’s a ton of them (bourgeoisie) that live in orange county so my guess is this was the doing of some developer that went back from California.
