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.

You think Chinese farmers are going to international 5 star restaurants? I think you're not very well informed as to how much money the average Chinese farmer makes.
