We all know of that infamous Chinese case where a guy was deemed to "must have felt guilty as there's no way any person would help someone else otherwise and is therefore liable for all damages" by the judge, though I've read laws were changed so helping no longer makes you liable.Ah Japan, the only place (far as I know) where self-sacrifice and genuine concern for a stranger is considered fictitious.
You know what? Hearing that it was in China somehow doesn't shock me as much as it should.We all know of that infamous Chinese case where a guy was deemed to "must have felt guilty as there's no way any person would help someone else otherwise and is therefore liable for all damages" by the judge, though I've read laws were changed so helping no longer makes you liable.
I looked it up since I'm the one who brought it up:You know what? Hearing that it was in China somehow doesn't shock me as much as it should.
In the end the dude decided to admit to having accidentally pushed her, but the idiotic verdict warned everyone not to ever help anyone. I'll post some more related stuff here, since there is now legal protection and I don't want to paint an overtly negative picture. Still important to note that this was not a lone case and it may have had a lasting effect.In 2006, Peng Yu had encountered Xu Shoulan after she had fallen, breaking her femur. Peng assisted Xu and brought her to a local hospital for further care. Xu accused Peng of having caused her fall, and demanded that he pay her medical expenses. The court decided in favor of the plaintiff and held Peng liable for damages, reasoning that despite the lack of concrete evidence, "no one would in good conscience help someone unless they felt guilty".[3] The verdict received widespread media coverage, and engendered a public outcry against the decision. It is regarded as a landmark case because of its implication that the Chinese public is vulnerable to civil liability for lending help in emergency situations due to the lack of any Good Samaritan laws.[4][5]
Of course, there are plenty of people in many countries who have been caught by dashcams throwing themselves against a car, sometimes even parked cars, to then (threaten to) sue and claim to be the victim. This problem is not unique to China. But since we're talking about China, I'll add some relevant links:Wang Yue (Chinese: 王 悦; pinyin: Wáng Yuè), also known as "Little Yue Yue" (Chinese: 小悅悅), was a two-year-old Chinese girl who was run over by two motorists on the afternoon of 13 October 2011, in a narrow road in Foshan, Guangdong. As she lay bleeding and unconscious on the road for more than seven minutes, at least 18 passers-by skirted around her body, ignoring her.[1] She was eventually helped by a female rubbish scavenger and sent to a hospital for treatment, but succumbed to her injuries and died eight days later. The closed-circuit television recording of the incident was uploaded onto the Internet, and quickly stirred widespread reaction in China and overseas.
Many commentators believed this to be indicative of the moral decline in contemporary Chinese society.[2] However, other commentators credited the high-profile Peng Yu incident in 2006,[3] in which someone who helped an injured accident victim was accused of having injured the victim himself and was forced to pay for the victim's medical bill, as having caused people to fear getting in trouble for helping in Wang's case.[4][1] Several regional Good Samaritan laws were passed following the incident and in 2017 a new national Good Samaritan law came into force to prevent such situations through the country.

Lmao tbh i don't know how you could ever hate a realist like him. He lost both parents & has to live completely alone shouldering all responsibility's as a highschooler, getting beaten up and bullied relentlessly every single day & thus getting betrayed by the whole class and also his friends.
But than after how many what? Weeks? Months? of getting shit on by everybody you have this stupid pretend childhood friend? coming up to you & asks "aRe yOu oK?" Like WTF is that dumb shit? She says she wanted to be like him & did absolutely nothing except ignoring him even though he stood by her side when she got bullied herself. She even says on the phone that she is at her "friends" house lmao. Yeah what a great "friend" she is. Her whole monologue is just dumb selfish mumbling to make herself feel better.
He tells her to leave & what does she do? She comes back with a goddamn burden (child). She's even asking herself if he lives all alone in such a big house lmao. Yeah you know that can happen when your parents are f****** dead but i guess she already forgotten about that as well even though she watched him getting beaten up & getting ridiculed because of his dead parents. What a great friend she is.
Tbh right know i really like this mc & i hope he keeps his realistic attitude for a while.
