There are about as many Chinese people who speak English as a second language as there are Americans speaking English natively.
I'm sure you would notice it if they had unrestricted access to the internet. They can't all be lurking.
there's like a lot of chinese people in china
Most of them, in fact
Yes, most. But not all. There are currently approximately 50 million Chinese people living elsewhere.
That's a lot more than the domestic population of many individual countries.
I lived in China for a few years and the number of Chinese people who think they can speak English is a lot different than the number of people who actually can speak English and be understood by other English speakers.
Memeing is easier than speaking at least.
