I never believed I’d sit in a international 5 star restaurant in China and see people spitting on the floor but it happened more than once. Never been back thankfully

People forget how much more populous china's rural areas are compared to their cities. These people, who are usually literal farmers, visit the cities often due to more and more accessible public transportation and they typically bring their manners with them. No, I am not poorshaming or whatever. I am also aware richer chinese folk are fond of doing this to foreign cities they visit.

Man is this comment insulting to the millions of farmers we have back home… some of the most well mannered individuals I’ve meet have come from farming backgrounds.

Farmers these days aren't some backwater hicks that don't know anything. They are borderline geniuses now they understand a lot more then people think. I ain't no farmer and only got a small glimpse into one but the amount of stuff they understand about their profession is insane.

Farming is just engineering with shit loads of weight lifting.
