@JenniferZeng15 The three elements of news are time, place, and people. The first two are met, but what about the third? Who is the main person? Is it just some rumored Japanese-Chinese? You know, Gui Minhai's case was a truly high-profile case, and even with his administrative system's years-long efforts to restore his citizenship, I think this kind of news—of course, social media might not care—would be carefully considered for genuine news. At least I don't believe it.
@JenniferZeng15 It seems they don't care if you two try to have your cake and eat it too; they can mess with you if they want to. As long as you were once a Chinese citizen, they can force you to "voluntarily" restore your Chinese citizenship.
@JenniferZeng15 The case you used comes from an article on X, and no one can corroborate its authenticity. The article itself is also full of doubts. Therefore, your claim that it is a real case in your article seems to lack strong evidence.
@JenniferZeng15 Anonymity does not equate to a lack of verification. News organizations using anonymous sources must adhere to stringent standards, including journalists knowing the true identity and cross-verification from at least two independent sources. Self-media accepting anonymous submissions without evidence constitutes zero cross-verification and should not be confused with professional journalistic standards.
@19970sina Yes, in this era, professional media outlets fabricate stories far too often, so their reputation isn't great anymore. Conversely, independent media creators, out of conscience, publish information even if it's difficult to verify through other methods. Firstly, it serves as a warning to others, and secondly, they're risking their own credibility. Those who constantly create and spread rumors will gradually lose followers. You don't need to worry too much about that.
@JenniferZeng15@AllenZhangDC Yes, this is one of the characteristics of communist revolutions. True communists will stop at nothing, even killing, to achieve their goals. Fabricating evidence is merely to expose this so-called evil... Let me repeat, this kind of political logic doesn't hold water, nor does it make sense administratively. Even the so-called Guilin Hai case, a top-tier case, required two years to complete the citizenship cancellation process. Seven days? Absolutely not.
@JenniferZeng15@AllenZhangDC With the Ministry of Public Security's seal and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' document, who dares to overstep their authority? In today's system that heavily emphasizes political discipline and procedural accountability, missing a single procedure or seal constitutes a serious violation of discipline. Who has the ability to coordinate the signing process between local public security bureaus, provincial departments, the National Immigration Administration, and foreign affairs departments within seven days? This seven-day nationality restoration is a complete ignorance of the basic principles of administrative system operation.
