Hey, they’re just trying to make China look like London so their audience feels at home

The video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41e44JwMY6Y&list=PL6UESfsY6DFtN4rbXh3WYI8OEI78Lt9vi&index=6

The image in question:

The BBC article: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-57780023.amp?s=09

Now, one might assume that the Youtuber is lying, and this is definitely what any lib coming across the Youtube video would think, especially if they look up the article and notice the image is unaltered.

Think again, the BBC has since changed it back to the unaltered version, this shit is infuriating because, 1. anyone seeing this video would think the youtuber is lying, and 2. whoever read the article at first has already been lied to. Here is the article before the image was changed to the unaltered version (Likely in “response” to the Youtubers video, BBC obv. doesn’t mention or apologize for this blatant disinformation): http://web.archive.org/web/20210711221132/https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-57780023

Initially, although only for a while since I am critical towards my sources, thought that he had lied after looking up the BBC article, shame on me … But thank fuck for archive.org.

I decided to make this comment to anyone who may look it up.

I member…That’s how I found Living in China, so thanks, BSB News.
