    all this reporting from Western media feels like some sort of backhanded publicity campaign for attracting migrants

    How is “food prices in China are super low while food prices in America are higher than ever” supposed to attract migrants to the west?

    Are they gonna run a story on the rate of home ownership or commute times next?

      The other way around. The reporting sounds like a backhanded migration advertisement for China, to westerners.
