It's beneficial to know what the general public thinks about issues?

I don't think "posts on social media" is a good indicator for what the public thinks anymore, if ever. The amount and reach of bot or bought accounts are disturbingly high.

Social media aren't "the general public"

Do you have a better way of interviewing Chinese Nationals for Western media?

With the terrible demographic distribution, the absolute sewage social media is and the bots that make more than half the content. If you want to know what the general public thinks, you could not chose any worse source
