It's interesting to read the Chinese social media reactions to the stock market crash. In the beginning it was mostly hopeful mixed with a bit of schadenfreude. Then it was resigned with a lot of morbid jokes.
Now, there is a degree of anger you didn't see before. There is even a streak of nationalism with some rumors claiming western forces are conspiring to bring down the Chinese market. Some social media posts are literally "buy stocks if you love our motherland."
