I'm Sorry, I Was Wrong About China

  • 0:00 - 0:06
    There is a massive rot within Chinese society 
    that’s literally killing students.
  • 0:06 - 0:10
    This is something the CCP doesn’t want people 
    to talk about…!
  • 0:10 - 0:14
    So let’s talk about it
  • 0:14 - 0:16
    Welcome to China Uncensored. I’m Chris Chappell.
  • 0:16 - 0:17
    Before we begin,
  • 0:17 - 0:22
    do you know what the number one most 
    popular app in the world right now is?
  • 0:22 - 0:24
    The China Uncensored app!
  • 0:24 - 0:29
    Get exclusive 
    China analysis you won’t see anywhere else.
  • 0:29 - 0:32
    Oh my gawd! I love learning 
    about political infighting at
  • 0:32 - 0:37
    the highest levels of the Chinese Communist Party.
  • 0:37 - 0:40
    Available for Android and iOS. Links below.
  • 0:40 - 0:41
    So…
  • 0:41 - 0:43
    Did you know that China is living 
    in the future?
  • 0:43 - 0:49
    Just look at all the shiny sparkly lights! Isn’t it amazing?
  • 0:49 - 0:51
    Yup, the future in China is bright,
  • 0:51 - 0:54
    with 
    typical cities that positively glow.
  • 0:54 - 0:58
    Just ask random people on 
    the street. They’ll tell you.
  • 0:58 - 1:03
    “What is the best country in the entire world?”
    “China.”
  • 1:03 - 1:06
    “Why?”
    “Beautiful culture there.”
  • 1:06 - 1:09
    “Delicious foods.”
    “The best country in the entire world.”
  • 1:09 - 1:12
    “Probably gonna say China.”
    “Why China?”
  • 1:12 - 1:15
    “Low crime rates, and they 
    do a lot of manufacturing.”
  • 1:15 - 1:16
    “China.”
    “Why?”
  • 1:16 - 1:20
    “It’s like so futuristic compared to us. Like, 
    they’re so much more advanced than we are.”
  • 1:20 - 1:23
    “China.”
    “Why China is your favorite country?”
  • 1:23 - 1:26
    “Because it’s a well-developed country.”
    “But there are many well-developed countries
  • 1:26 - 1:32
    . Why exactly China?”
    “Because it’s a well-developed country.”
  • 1:32 - 1:34
    Very natural. And all those cuts while the people
  • 1:34 - 1:38
    were answering definitely weren’t 
    so they could be fed more lines.
  • 1:38 - 1:39
    And that’s not all!
  • 1:39 - 1:44
    Haven’t you heard how 
    incredibly safe and advanced China is?
  • 1:44 - 1:48
    Pro-CCP shills love to brag about 
    how advanced and beautiful China is
  • 1:48 - 1:51
    . Absolutely not on the brink of total collapse!
  • 1:51 - 1:55
    According to them, it’s the roaring 20s in 
    China!
  • 1:55 - 1:56
    Which is an odd choice of metaphor,
  • 1:56 - 1:58
    since the roaring 20s in the West ended with…
  • 1:58 - 2:00
    the Great Depression.
  • 2:00 - 2:05
    But the problem is, they’re only giving 
    you a very small, curated picture of China.
  • 2:05 - 2:07
    What are they not showing?
  • 2:07 - 2:08
    Things like this.
  • 2:08 - 2:11
    Which are a lot more 
    common than China would have you believe.
  • 2:11 - 2:13
    For example: earlier this month,
  • 2:13 - 2:15
    thousands of people protested against
  • 2:15 - 2:22
    Xuchang No. 6 Middle School after a 
    13-year-old girl unalived herself.
  • 2:22 - 2:25
    Spoiler: we’re gonna be talking about unaliving 
    so much in this episode
  • 2:25 - 2:30
    that we can’t say the word for unaliving without YouTube getting mad
  • 2:30 - 2:33
    and unaliving the monetization of this video.
  • 2:33 - 2:37
    The student, Wu Yijia, was reportedly 
    doing well academically.
  • 2:37 - 2:42
    But then her new homeroom teacher, known simply as Zhang, came.
  • 2:42 - 2:47
    Family and classmates of Wu claim that Zhang 
    constantly bullied Wu for months.
  • 2:47 - 2:51
    Probably because Zhang is a super well-adjusted,
  • 2:51 - 2:54
    happy 
    person, like all adults that bully children.
  • 2:54 - 3:00
    “The bullying included frequent public 
    insults, forcing her to stand as punishment,
  • 3:00 - 3:03
    barring her from entering the classroom for an 
    entire day,
  • 3:03 - 3:06
    making her run in scorching heat,
  • 3:06 - 3:10
    and inciting other classmates to ostracize her.”
  • 3:10 - 3:12
    Things got so bad that “On May 23,
  • 3:12 - 3:16
    after 
    being forced to stand as punishment for three consecutive days
  • 3:16 - 3:22
    , Wu Yijia jumped from the 
    16th floor of her apartment building and died.”
  • 3:22 - 3:24
    Wu’s family met with school officials the 
    next day
  • 3:24 - 3:26
    and ended up in a heated argument,
  • 3:26 - 3:31
    during which Zhang reportedly showed 
    complete indifference and no remorse.
  • 3:31 - 3:33
    According to Wu’s family,
  • 3:33 - 3:38
    the school put 
    the blame for Wu’s death entirely on them.
  • 3:38 - 3:42
    So the family protested at the middle school 
    entrance that evening.
  • 3:42 - 3:43
    Wu’s classmates, meanwhile,
  • 3:43 - 3:49
    began sharing her story on social 
    media, and it garnered tons of attention.
  • 3:49 - 3:51
    Hopefully, Zhang will soon be forced 
    to stand
  • 3:51 - 3:53
    … in the unemployment line.
  • 3:53 - 3:56
    The following morning, Wu’s family returned to the
  • 3:56 - 3:58
    school entrance holding pictures of the 
    deceased.
  • 3:58 - 4:01
    They demanded accountability.
  • 4:01 - 4:04
    Then things escalated, with tons of students 
    gathering,
  • 4:04 - 4:07
    throwing flyers, smashing windows,
  • 4:07 - 4:11
    And writing slogans like 
    “blood debt must be repaid”.
  • 4:11 - 4:13
    Yup, best country in the world right here!
  • 4:13 - 4:15
    The authorities soon started getting involved,
  • 4:15 - 4:20
    And by the evening, the police had sealed 
    off the main roads surrounding the school…
  • 4:20 - 4:22
    And sent in a unit to keep guard.
  • 4:22 - 4:24
    Because 
    a child getting bullied to death? .
  • 4:24 - 4:25
    Whatever
  • 4:25 - 4:29
    People getting mad about a child getting bullied 
    to death?
  • 4:29 - 4:32
    Knock it off! We live in a society!
  • 4:32 - 4:34
    So what came out of this? Nothing!
  • 4:34 - 4:38
    Wu’s father came out with a video 
    saying that everything’s all handled
  • 4:38 - 4:42
    and that he hoped everybody would 
    stop talking about his daughter.
  • 4:42 - 4:46
    There’s a good chance that he was 
    coerced to say that by local authorities.
  • 4:46 - 4:51
    Wu’s tragic story is just one of 
    many similar stories in China.
  • 4:51 - 4:55
    Which is why I think now’s the time for a 
    China Uncensored mental health break.
  • 4:55 - 4:57
    Aw, look at the puppies!
  • 4:57 - 5:00
    Hopefully, these ones 
    didn’t go to any Chinese puppy schools.
  • 5:00 - 5:04
    Anyway, back to Chinese schools being dodgy 
    after a student’s death.
  • 5:04 - 5:06
    For example: at the beginning of this year,
  • 5:06 - 5:11
    a 17-year-old student 
    at Pucheng Vocational Education Center died.
  • 5:11 - 5:17
    The local authorities reported that the student 
    fell to his death and ruled out criminality.
  • 5:17 - 5:23
    Yup, just an accidental large fall, happens 
    all the time in Communist countries..
  • 5:23 - 5:26
    But people started wondering if there was 
    more to the story.
  • 5:26 - 5:28
    And for good reason.
  • 5:28 - 5:34
    The 17-year-old’s mother said that she first 
    heard about her son’s death at a little past 7am…
  • 5:34 - 5:38
    but was taken to the hotel opposite the school,
  • 5:38 - 5:41
    where two teachers took turns watching over her
  • 5:41 - 5:44
    and didn’t allow her to move freely until 4pm,
  • 5:44 - 5:47
    when she was taken directly to the funeral home.
  • 5:47 - 5:50
    They were essentially monitoring her and holding 
    her hostage,
  • 5:50 - 5:52
    while potentially covering up a crime?
  • 5:52 - 5:58
    Kind of beside the point, but for all 
    they do, teachers really don’t get paid enough.
  • 5:58 - 6:01
    When she finally saw him, she noticed that her son
  • 6:01 - 6:06
    “was neatly dressed with no external 
    injuries on his face or head,
  • 6:06 - 6:09
    but he had a lot of bruises under his neck.”
  • 6:10 - 6:14
    I’m no medical expert, but all my 
    years of playing the pit stage in
  • 6:14 - 6:18
    Mortal Kombat II prove that’s not 
    how injuries after falls work.
  • 6:18 - 6:22
    She wanted to lift her son’s clothes 
    to see if there were other injuries,
  • 6:22 - 6:26
    but more than a dozen teachers stopped 
    her from seeing and taking any photos.
  • 6:26 - 6:28
    Which isn’t at all sus.
  • 6:28 - 6:32
    According to her, she only got to see her 
    son briefly before she was driven out.
  • 6:32 - 6:36
    And, to make matters worse, 
    the mother also claimed that…
  • 6:36 - 6:40
    “All the mobile phones and watches 
    of the children who knew about the
  • 6:40 - 6:45
    situation were confiscated, and 
    all photos in them were deleted.”
  • 6:45 - 6:48
    You know, the kind of thing innocent 
    people do when they have nothing to
  • 6:48 - 6:52
    hide and aren’t gonna wind up as 
    an episode of a true crime podcast.
  • 6:52 - 6:54
    People started asking questions,
  • 6:54 - 6:57
    like why the kid’s head was fine if he fell,
  • 6:57 - 7:00
    why 
    there were quote unquote “neck pinch marks”,
  • 7:00 - 7:04
    and why the school didn’t allow 
    the parents to see their child.
  • 7:04 - 7:07
    Unanswered questions turned to outrage.
  • 7:07 - 7:09
    Local people started rioting at the school.
  • 7:09 - 7:11
    They threw rocks,
  • 7:11 - 7:14
    Paper money — and paper beat the 
    rocks — and instead of scissors:
  • 7:14 - 7:18
    fire hydrants. Which I’m 
    pretty sure beats everything.
  • 7:18 - 7:20
    There were many…
  • 7:20 - 7:21
    Many…
  • 7:21 - 7:24
    Many clashes with the police,
  • 7:24 - 7:25
    Along with arrests.
  • 7:25 - 7:28
    Because covering 
    up the death of a child? No problem.
  • 7:28 - 7:32
    Being mad about that? Have you 
    no decency, sirs and madams?!
  • 7:32 - 7:37
    There were also reports that videos and 
    livestreams of the protests were getting deleted.
  • 7:37 - 7:40
    But just look at those skylines sparkle!
  • 7:40 - 7:42
    That’s just a drop in the bucket.
  • 7:42 - 7:43
    Schools and local authorities have
  • 7:43 - 7:48
    been accused of covering up 
    many other suspicious deaths.
  • 7:48 - 7:50
    There was the December 2023 case
  • 7:50 - 7:54
    when 
    a 14-year-old reportedly had mu ltiple bruises on his body,
  • 7:54 - 7:58
    multiple holes in 
    his arm, perhaps from a screwdriver,
  • 7:58 - 8:02
    wounds exposing bones, and a twisted ankle.
  • 8:02 - 8:06
    His cause of death was ruled as self-unaliving.
  • 8:06 - 8:10
    That same month, a 3rd grade student 
    from Lingshan Elementary School
  • 8:10 - 8:13
    in Haikou died with multiple fractures
  • 8:13 - 8:14
    and a 
    dislocated arm. ’
  • 8:14 - 8:19
    The school refused parents requests to view surveillance footage,
  • 8:19 - 8:21
    claiming that the cameras were damaged.
  • 8:21 - 8:27
    And in 2021, a mother demanded transparency 
    over her 17-year-old son’s death
  • 8:27 - 8:29
    in front of Chengdu No. 49 High School
  • 8:29 - 8:34
    after being told 
    by the school that he fell from a building.
  • 8:34 - 8:37
    But the mother “wasn’t notified by the school 
    until two hours later
  • 8:37 - 8:39
    , when her son’s body was at a funeral parlor,
  • 8:39 - 8:43
    or allowed on campus 
    to speak with his classmates or teachers.
  • 8:43 - 8:46
    And school officials initially rejected her 
    request
  • 8:46 - 8:48
    to check footage from security cameras.”
  • 8:48 - 8:51
    With all these suspicious deaths I’m starting to
  • 8:51 - 8:54
    wonder if they kept Jeffrey 
    Epstein in a Chinese school.
  • 8:54 - 8:55
    I think you get the picture.
  • 8:55 - 8:58
    And in China, that picture looks like this.
  • 8:58 - 9:00
    Parents are left demanding answers,
  • 9:00 - 9:04
    because they 
    can’t trust the authorities to be transparent.
  • 9:04 - 9:07
    This is a pattern Chinese people are 
    all too familiar with:
  • 9:07 - 9:10
    Chinese students die under strange circumstances,
  • 9:10 - 9:12
    parents start asking questions,
  • 9:12 - 9:15
    the authorities do the exact opposite of 
    being transparent,
  • 9:15 - 9:16
    people get outraged,
  • 9:16 - 9:20
    and those in power kill protests and 
    information.
  • 9:20 - 9:23
    Oops, sorry, YouTube. Unalive
  • 9:23 - 9:24
    protests and information.
  • 9:24 - 9:29
    Because the language 
    is the most offensive part of these stories.
  • 9:29 - 9:33
    In fact, one viral 2021 Weibo post that talked 
    about student unalivings
  • 9:33 - 9:35
    is no longer available.
  • 9:35 - 9:37
    Those in power, whether they be teachers or 
    local authorities,
  • 9:37 - 9:39
    are so afraid of looking bad
  • 9:39 - 9:44
    that they’ll do whatever it takes to hide 
    information that sheds light on students’ deaths.
  • 9:44 - 9:49
    One school went so far as to make 
    students sign unaliving disclaimers…
  • 9:49 - 9:54
    That said “If I commit the action of self-injuring 
    or uhh self unaliving
  • 9:54 - 9:56
    , it has nothing to do with the school.
  • 9:56 - 10:01
    Myself, my parents or my guardians 
    will not claim any loss
  • 10:01 - 10:04
    or ask for any compensation from the school or school staff,
  • 10:04 - 10:07
    nor will they disturb the school’s teaching.”
  • 10:07 - 10:10
    What’s that school’s mascot? A lemming?
  • 10:10 - 10:14
    The last thing officials want is to be 
    known for having a toxic school environment,
  • 10:14 - 10:17
    especially since the Chinese 
    government, at least on paper,
  • 10:17 - 10:20
    tries to make itself look 
    like it cares for students.
  • 10:20 - 10:21
    Of course, they could just,
  • 10:21 - 10:23
    you know… actually care for students.
  • 10:23 - 10:26
    But 
    I guess that’s just asking for too much.
  • 10:27 - 10:29
    What kind of culture encourages this kind
  • 10:29 - 10:34
    of response to tragedies as 
    horrible as student deaths?
  • 10:34 - 10:37
    I’ll tell you what: a culture 
    cultivated by the CCP.
  • 10:37 - 10:39
    The CCP are so obsessed with image,
  • 10:39 - 10:41
    cracking down on protestors,
  • 10:41 - 10:44
    and shutting 
    down information that makes it look bad.
  • 10:44 - 10:49
    So is it a surprise when institutions across China act the same?
  • 10:49 - 10:52
    The Students have 
    literally become the Teachers.
  • 10:52 - 10:57
    So when you see people say China’s a 
    utopia that’s investing in its people…
  • 10:57 - 10:58
    Remember images like this…
  • 10:58 - 11:01
    before they get censored, too.
  • 11:01 - 11:05
    The CCP is pumping a lot of money to China 
    shills to spread propaganda.
  • 11:05 - 11:07
    We don’t have those resources.
  • 11:07 - 11:10
    So please, help us continue to 
    expose the CCP,
  • 11:10 - 11:12
    by subscribing to our website,
  • 11:12 - 11:14
    where we don’t have to worry about 
    YouTube censorship,
  • 11:14 - 11:19
    and you’ll get a bunch of exclusive content you won’t ever see 
    here on YouTube.
  • 11:19 - 11:21
    That’s ChinaUncensored.tv.
