zapee from Reddit.com
I suppose he'll not stop so easily to bother me with his childish and not very polite messages in Reddit.com, so I'm creating now this topic for him (and about him), where he was already invited to participate; here many people will read him with pleasure (or at least almost with pleasure because he sounds not very educated and too uninformed).
An introduction. His current profile in Reddit is "
reddit.com/user/zapee" and for the first time we noticed him when a video about the toilet paper in China was shared in
r/china.
1) He became with "Make the same video but in public bathrooms...." (then I noticed that this person isn't familiar with the ellipsis in English. He thinks that he can just type a lot of dots, in this case -- 4!
In fact, the ellipsis contains 3 (three) dots, no more, no less:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis).
2) Someone with a nickname "TopspinTEC" answered him and then he added "I hate to admit I spent time reviewing the guy's channel, but I did.
I have to say, he seems a bit more than dense. I don't want to be disrespectful but he probably suffers from some condition." (At this point I decided to inform him about the real situation because seems that he's not capable to understand what is humour, what is serious and decided to waste some time to inform and educate him a bit).
3) I decided to do so 100% when I read this "Any foreigner with a heartbeat can be an english teacher in china." (It shows that he's really lacking of any knowledge about the English jobs in China currently, no idea about the new laws and has no knowledge how to use the capital letters in English. You see, if his sentence was correct it should be "...an English teacher in China.")
So, I sent him this:
"In fact his channel is mostly comedy channel. He has no conditions. In fact he's a serious philosopher and even publish different articles and e-books online. If you want to check more, browse "Geser Kurultaev":
https://www.google.com/search?q=geser+kurultaev&sxsrf=ALeKk03nmgQ62u24SW6bVB9QAcuBzuwBdA:1596654332204&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi97bLy4ITrAhVkmHIEHUkjBRUQ_AUoAnoECAsQBA&biw=1366&bih=640"
As I expected the person was kind of slow and started with suspicions:
"Why are you pretending to not be him?" (from zapee sent 20 hours ago)
I decided to be patient with him, understanding that it's not an ordinary person who can get the things at once, so I sent him this answer:
"I'm not him. I'm a Chinese woman."
It wasn't enough, his slowness produced this answer:
"Why are you pretending to be a Chinese woman?" (sent 8 hours ago)
Well, I decided to give him some time to check more about me just because I don't want to belive someone may be that stupid, you know? And
at last he send another message with the realization that
"Oh shtit, i just realized you are a chinese girl. but you are friends with or dating the guy making those videos." (sent 8 hours ago)
After this, I realized that it's really someone with lack of manners, lack of education and really a slow person, but I decided to have some more patience with him and to see to what degree his brain is capable to understand this simple matter. So, continuing to be friendly and polite I sent him this:
"Trust me. We're decent, educated and normal people. Usually, we're making many neutral and positive videos about China. We're trying to stay away from the political topics. If you want something new about China or you need some info, let me know. I'll be glad to help."
And then he started to show his "level":
"I live in China. My chinese wife agrees these videos are incredibly weird. You also claim its mostly comedy, but none of them are funny. Not only are they not funny, they dont even try to present any form of comedy.
They actually are funny in the sense that they are so bad.
I understand you guys enjoy making these videos, and thats cool, but that doesnt change the fact that the videos make you and him look insane." (from zapee sent 7 hours ago)
I answered: ""Funny" is subjective and there are different forms of comedy. Thanks for your feedback tho!
You're free to make better videos if you're capable and you like. It's a free world, you know?
Your Chinese wife is a concrete Chinese person with her own opinion and point of view. There are different Chinese people. Some of them are pro-Chinese, some are anti-Chinese, some do support CCP, others do not. "Look insane" is subjective too. From our point of view making anti-Chinese videos and then complain that you're kicked out of China is insane too."
And his last (so far) message (where 100% gave me the impression of someone who is slow and with lack of education, information and good manners) was this: "If I watch a comedian but I dont think he's funny, I can at least recognize he is trying to be funny. Those videos are not of someone trying to be funny.
They are unintentionally funny because the people making the video fail to see how ridiculous their content is. Laughing at you, not with you.
You said "From our point of view making anti-Chinese videos and then complain that you're kicked out of China is insane too." No, not having basic free speech and human rights is insane." (from zapee sent 6 hours ago).
So, as I informed him already, from now on, if he sends something, it'll be answered only here: "Thank you for informing me how do you think about those videos! Your subjective statements of who is trying/not trying to be funny are purely your owns and you can't prove anything because you're not him. He knows best what is he trying in his videos. All you can do is just to suppose. It's strange someone who's making only childish (gamer) videos to try to judge the quality of the more serious videos.
Basic free speech and human rights like what? Like in the USA where everyone is able to shoot you, to rob during the protests and so on? And where on purpose the government can ban anything like TikTok or another business?
All you believe is "free speech" and "human rights" is fake. But, of course, you're still not well educated and probably you're just a teenager, so you can't get the nature of the problems. You know what? I'm not going to waste time to explain you anymore. If you continue, of course, I'll respect your wish and I'll create a special topic about you (zapee) in the Omnilogy forum, where you can have a public discussion with that philosopher, me and many other Chinese and non-Chinese. There people will be glad to read your statements (even they're really childish and naive
), but here, in Reddit, I'm not going to waste more time with you young man. Best wishes!
"
I bet 99.99% he's going to answer something again. As we may expect, it'll be a low-level answer but I'll repost it here and you all can read and discuss. If he dares to come here, well, have fun!
