I stumbled upon this video on r/Sino from the severe floods last August and thought it was too wholesome not to share.

The comments are pretty real too:

Imagine dropping a box into a US Army vehicle. Their first reaction would be that it is a bomb. You'd probably be shot within seconds, especially if you're a minority.

You wouldnt be allowed to get that close to begin with. The whole area would have been locked down by the police force. Imagine being that paranoid of your own citizens.

I almost thought this comment was legit for a second, then I noticed the lack of @lemmy-whatever in the username and then I understood...

This is a fellow Hexbear. This is sarcasm without the /s

You're talking about the PLA soldiers right? Imagine actually having to perform physical labour to help your fellow citizens instead of just getting abused by your CO all day and launching missiles at dudes with Soviet-era equipment

Doctors without Borders? Would I not need to be a doctor to do that? I'm more or less an uneducated light-manufacturing worker

You could write a book contrasting this reaction to the reaction to FEMA work in the US after the hurricanes.

Americans don't trust the government or themselves so much they will start shooting at those trying to help them. Versus insisting that the helpers take more water and snacks.

My country has a tradition of throwing food too. We sometimes throw nutritious eggs to politicians, or even a milkshake. Food is a good way to show how much we appreciate their work.
