China is Offering an $86K Bounty to Porn Snitches
Source - Surfing for smut in China just got quite a bit more, well, lucrative.
The Chinese government is offering big payouts to people who snitch on porno. As of this month, the country’s heavy-hitting anti-porn task force is offering up the US equivalent of $86,000 — almost exactly the average annual salary there — to anyone who reports on NSFW content. …
China’s ongoing campaign against web smut, called “Clean Up the Pornographic, Strike the Illegal,” has serious consequences for anyone found guilty of watching, sharing or creating erotic material.
While watchdogs get cash, would-be pornographers are being smacked with serious jail time.
What was it Dennis Reynolds said at the end of the “Asian Creampies” episode of It’s Always Sunny? Something along the lines of, “Well this just proves that if you spy on Americans, you’ll just find us constantly on our computers, masturbating to porn,” as everyone agrees and the credits roll. And I’m sure that’s true of virtually every other culture with even the slightest hint of personal freedoms.
Well not China. Not. Any. More. If you needed any more proof that they are about to become the next great global superpower, here it is. And they’re not going to have to take over the world by force of arms. They won’t need a superior navy. It won’t take super weapons. And it won’t require one-sided economic deals to achieve their imperialist aims. They’ll simply take control by working while the rest of us are losing hours of productivity a day searching “amateur milfs,” “ffm 3way” and, of course, “asian creampies.”
You think the Chinese are kidding around here with this? They are not kidding around. I did the math. I think. The calculator on my phone ran out of zeros. But I think 1.386 billion Chinese times $86,000 per person equals $119 trillion they are willing to spend to get their citizenry off the smut and back to work. That is playing for keeps. Meanwhile, we can’t get off PornHub long enough to keep our veteran’s hospitals funded.
And let’s not kid ourselves the 86 grand idea won’t work. I’m no rat, but every man has his price. If you could double your annual salary by snitching on the guy in the next cubicle because he spent his break watching “Amazing Petite First Time,” don’t pretend for one hot second you wouldn’t drop that dime. Granted, I don’t know how Chinese authorities are supposed to tell the difference between someone searching for porn in order to report it or just for their personal use, but I’m sure they’ve got that all worked out. Or will simply throw everyone in jail who reports it, thus saving themselves $86,000. Either way, “Clean Up the Pornographic, Strike the Illegal” is going to be effective. Probably the greatest period of advancement by any culture since the Meiji Restoration brought a feudal, medieval Japan into world prominence in only 10 years in the mid-1800s. All because the Chinese will have stopped whacking it to porn. And there’s simply no way we can compete with that.
