Dashan Recommends chinaSMACK on Sina Weibo

From Sina Weibo:

@大山: A very interesting website, using English to introduce China’s internet culture to the world. Very frank, without being modified/tempered.

Can’t open it, bet you need to go over the Great Firewall.

小摩尼珠：

Haha, the website Dashan recommends is very 囧~ There are also similar websites that translate foreign news about China.

pearfour：

Seeing that “囧”, I probably know what kind of news is on there.

No matter who you are, everyone should learn a bit about China.

Been following for 3 years already.

Also recommend, it’s always been in my bookmarks.

HimalayanGriffon：

Ai ya, I’ve been following this website for a long time, and now that its been promoted by Teacher Dashan, I bet it won’t be long before it’s shut down.

米露的五月：

Our foreign teacher mentioned this website before, they too are able to be in China and follow the trends now.

Great, can learn English.

ChinaSmack, this website is “Tianya + Weibo”, “distilled/simplified + English”. The news selected are all kitten abusing women, Gan Lulu, self-immolation, and the like, plus netizens’ various shocking comments. Chinese alongside the English, original.

Vicky_JDZ：

Indeed very interesting, everyone come check it out!

窗旁的xiao豆豆：

ChinaSMACK this website is truly not bad. I too recommend it.

teddennis：

This website is good! Too bad my English is too poor – –

TrebleClefzs2：

I’ve also been following this website for a long time. I think it’s still a little being prejudiced.

查理与卡娃：

This website I’ve read before. I think us Chinese people want face too much, and usually can’t handle seeing this much “negative” things on a website. Actually, it is because the education we’ve received since we were small all only shows us the “harmonious” side. To face the unmodified/untempered ugly and vulgar things is very difficult. Actually, a country is like a person. When you learn to laugh at yourself, and not conceal the mistakes you’ve made, then it shows you’ve grown up and matured.
