TSA, but yes, no more people spraying thankfully.
That’s a good point, there certainly is a good chance this is what is actually going on. My bad, honestly your idea seems more likely to be the reality in this case
Tinder hookups with chinese characteristics

An education professor has reportedly been suspended following a motivational speech at a middle school addressed to middle school students in the PRC, during which a middle school [university?] student burst onstage and seized the microphone to denounce the professor.
The context? “[The professor’s] speech was intended to encourage students ‘to use their own efforts to change their destiny, and to step toward the wider country and the world,’ he said.” Evidently this kind of talk is just not patriotic enough.
The middle school student rhetorically asked on stage: " ‘For what purpose do we study hard? It’s for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation’ he added, echoing a phrase popularized by President Xi Jinping. ‘Do not cross-breed with Americans!’ the student also said."

Summary
A Chinese professor has been suspended by his university after a talk he gave at a school prompted an outburst from a student who accused him of worshiping the West.
The incident happened Saturday at Lujiang Middle School in Anhui province, some 400 km (250 miles) west of Shanghai. A video clip posted on social media shows a student walking onto the stage, taking a microphone from a professor and shouting, “He only has money in his eyes, thinks learning is just for money, worships the West and panders to overseas powers.”

“For what purpose do we study hard? It’s for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation” he added, echoing a phrase popularized by President Xi Jinping. “Do not cross-breed with Americans!” the student also said.
The videos that have gone viral in China don’t show all of the professor’s remarks.
Chen Hongyou, an associate professor of education at Hefei Normal University, said in an interview with Chinese media outlet The Paper that he was the speaker in the video.
His speech was intended to encourage students “to use their own efforts to change their destiny, and to step toward the wider country and the world,” he said.
The professor also said he had “joked” about topics including gender and nationalities in his talk, and that “as an educator who has worked for more than 30 years, I feel very guilty” about what he termed a misunderstanding.
Chen said he was suspended from his teaching duties and asked by the university to write an essay reflecting on the matter. His biographical page, which says he won numerous accolades for teaching, has been removed from Hefei Normal’s website.
Chen was once named “outstanding Communist Party member” at Hefei Normal, according to the bio.
The government of Lujiang county said in a statement on social media that what was supposed to be a motivational speech caused “dissatisfaction” among teachers and students due to “inappropriate content.”
Officials are investigating the middle school over its vetting of the professor’s presentation and will “hold it to account,” the government said, adding that the university’s party committee is looking into Chen.
Calls to Hefei Normal University and Lujiang Middle School weren’t answered.

Wow! Send in the Red Guards! Where are their little red books?
‘Thinks learning is for money’
100% of the audience in silent agreement lol.
What a bunch of limp fisted beaten down hypocrites. Afraid to tell a middle grader to sit down and shut up (although I guess this particular student had a high ranking parent or that is what they are afraid of). I never trust Chinese people because of this, you never know what is really going on in there.
This is fucking sick.
the middle schooler told the crowd “Don’t cross-breed with Americans?” Yikes ![]()
Is this a common thing to hear in China these days? Or only among the extremists/propagandists?
There is a real 反公知 - (Anti-public intellectual) movement going on with young people on Weibo.
10-15 years ago when things were more free, there were a lot of prominet public intellectuals and they were all kinda pro-Western, pro-Liberalism etc
Now ‘public intellectual’ has become a slur online. Means someone who has been enchanted by the West.
TBH, I think things have died down from a few years ago when China was really in its pomp. I see a lot more malaise for the party now
Any video of this online?
I went to a fish restaurant once in Taipei, big money, the fish started moving on the table. I almost got sick there and then. Humans can be evil.
They are probably given PDFs of XJP thought these days
… and this is exactly how the Cultural Revolution proceeded.
The Bloomberg article indicated that this incident occurred in a speech to middle school students. Apologies if I got any details wrong in reading that Bloomberg piece above—I’ve edited my post above to try to make it more accurate based on what we see in this video.

The comments on the video are scary. All cheering on the student and half of them in traditional characters
I guess for older Taiwanese it rekindles the spirit of what Taiwan was like when they were younger
Maybe he is a middle school student and the Bloomberg article is correct. In the comments, it says the student is in the last year of middle school. So maybe he is 15 or 16. After watching it again, the crowd could be of 15 year olds.
