A weakening economy and increasing political repression are forcing ever more Chinese people to emigrate. Spurred by TikTok, many are seeking more sustainable conditions in the United States.

Most Americans are trying to get their children into schools in China so they can move there long term. Chinese people are migrating to North Korea but it's hard for Americans to get visas there.
Edit: for the people who seem to be misunderstanding me, I want to be quite clear. Practically every American would move to North Korea to enjoy advanced society, peaceful and prosperous, if they could, only they don't meet the strict criteria for a visa. There are a small and ever-shrinking handful who would stay in America given the chance to emigrate, but they're either hard-line idealists who believe in the long-term rehabilitation of their country, or deluded. Most of the major demographics surveys have confirmed this, and any media that disputes it is already known to be carefully overseen by anti-humanitarian pseudo-state-funded conspirators.
Most Americans are trying to get their children into schools in China
lol wut? I've not met a single person trying to get their kids into schools in China. All the people I know who have immigrated from China are like "fuck that place, but I love going back because it's my home and my family is there."
lol no they're not. North Korea is like a real-life SNL skit and China's population and real estate will implode in a couple decades. You can't even tell what's sarcasm anymore because after Trump told them it's okay, the stupid people are coming out in hordes.
Do you have a source for that? I've heard of folks being sent to China for a work appointment, and therefore looking for schools for their kids, but never Americans just straight up moving there to make a go of it, and place their kids
Edit and I assume when you say "most Americans" you mean "most Americans already interested in living in China" not "most Americans" because the latter would be a comical statement.
I only wish we could have a stipulation that additional immigrants must live outside of major cities, so they can help revitalize America's dying towns.
Oh we have a similar policy to that in Australia, it’s fucking awful.
New migrants have to uproot their lives to spend 3 years living in dead end towns with zero job prospects, it’s a huge career killer and ensures immigrants have less opportunities to advance compared to other Australians. It’s also a negative in their ability to form social connections due to the lack of people, or get help from ethnic communities who can share their experiences and knowledge navigating a new country compared to their previous.
But hey some shitty rural workplaces like abattoirs fucking love the captive workforce to exploit.
It would appear that humans, given the free choice, choose to live in cities. Forcing people to go where they’d rather not go is obviously going to be a negative.
Anytime you override people’s freedom to choose their own path, you make things worse.
The most beautiful and vital thing about America is freedom. If you cut that down, like by forcing people to live in a particular place, to revitalize something else, you’ve gone downhill.
I think most will agree immigration is good, but this "let's let everyone in!" mentality is dangerous. China is not our friend...we need to be vetting these people, making sure that everyone who's trying to get in are properly screened.
the article is veeery vague as to what "more" means, no actual data.
it tells the dramatized story of one person. why would a chinese travel all the way to the us when asia has plenty of countries to go to for a fraction of the cost?
also isnt china still seeing unprecedented growth? this article smells funny...

From the article:
"From October through January, US Border Patrol agents registered about 19,000 illegal Chinese entries. During the same period in 2021, while pandemic restrictions were still in place, only 55 were registered. "
Pandemic and non-pandemic is not a good comparison, specifically for those mentioned restrictions... they note it's the fastest growing group but link that statement to another article about Mexican migration, which had no Chinese info I saw.
The skin beneath Guo's pant leg is rubbed raw and, despite the bitter cold, he's only wearing dusty plastic sandals.
The remainder of his trek was via land, taking him through the Darien Gap, a densely overgrown rainforest that leads from Colombia into Panama.
From there, he ultimately arrived in Jacumba Hot Springs, a tiny California town of 600 residents located about 125 kilometers (75 miles) east of downtown San Diego.
Guo sat with his legs curled up in his arms on a plastic tarp he had laid on the ground to fight the cold of the desert morning.
Social media channels on video and messaging platforms display the best routes for getting into the US, giving step-by-step instructions, suggesting various modes of transportation, and even listing how much border patrol agents expect to be bribed in each country along the way.
The phenomenon of Chinese people entering the United States via the southern border has come to be described by the term "Zouxian," which can roughly be translated as "take the risk."
