I ask because on basically every post of a video where no Chinese person is doing something bad, people immediately rush to calling it staged; Chinese person provides a needy person a meal? Staged. Chinese person offers meals for free to earthquake rescue workers? Staged. Chinese person helps someone across a road? Staged. Uyghur just operating a stand being asked by an American tourist if they're living peacefully (to which they laugh and say yes)? Staged, or even saying yes because their lives depend on it.

Chinese person being racist however? Real. Chinese person yelling at someone and being rude? Real.

You know that racist trope people have of folks in Africa all believing in different superstitions or something? That's the average American; the bizarre folklore we've created of people around the world would make Tolkien's work seem like low fantasy.

Is it perhaps that white savior movies have rotted people's brains, and they're all imagining their normalcy would make them superior beings in foreign countries?

Chinese people disappear once they exit your FOV or render distance. Those videos you're seeing are a set of predefined 'random' events for you to come across on social media.

If you're ever able to get your camera to clip through a building and see ahead of you where there are no textures on the inside of a mesh you can see the Chinese people T-posing just out of view ready to walk in once you get into ranfe.

I genuinely think libs would draw a blank if they actually tried to imagine what the average day of a Chinese person was like; either that, or they'd imagine a black and white China where everyone's just crying or being overworked.

Realising the lives of working class people across the world is relativity similar to each other requires a degree of empathy libs aren't capable of

They'd legit get offended if asked to imagine such a thing. Source: I've literally asked this question with libs before and they act like I just killed their dog. Their offence protects their brains from evil seeseepee brainwashing waves that would cause them to start seeing Chinese people as human beings.
