honk gong

A misspelling of the word Hong Kong, the special administrative region of China, surrounded by Guang Dong, and one of the two most known regions of China to outsiders, along with the capital, Beijing. Most notably known from discord YouTuber isaacwhy. In the video: "We downloaded a knock-off chinese discord" at 8:32, isaacwhy misspells the word, triggering some laughter from him and his friends, he quickly corrects the mistake as he notices he spelled it wrong, even saying to his friends that he forgot how to spell it, but the other people in the server already noticed and as the camera zooms in we can see a Chinese user simply responding with a question mark, clearly confused at what he wrote before he corrects it. It’s a known fact that people born in the People’s Republic of China possess very little to no English knowledge, as such they cannot properly communicate with outsiders like Isaac and co. who do not know Chinese. There is also a limited number of English content on the Chinese intranet and little to no information about the world outside of mainland China as the Republic does not want people to find out about how the people outside live their lives as that could start a rebellion that the republic would not be able to contain if enough people joined in, or if all or most of the protectors like the police and other military forces were to join the rebellion. isaacwhy also goes on to make somewhat racist jokes and only speaking in English.
