-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I personally thought China had Sanda instead of BJJ/judo. They are rank 4 in judo at the Olympics.
I saw videos of people doing BJJ and judo and it's every bit like it is in the anglosphere
I am not immune to propaganda
with 1.5b+ people surely they have everything. there are an excess of black belts these days. they're all over the world starting gyms
Less than 1 in 1000 BJJ students get their black belt so jot that down
I'm likely to get my black belt in a few months 
But more constructively, I saw an interesting conversation regarding the fidelity and information communicated by belts. It was the idea that you have a badge system for people who have been in the sport for a long time without competition results. So you still celebrate long time contribution to the art but you don't make a claim about their martial competency. Maybe you could have gilded belts for universally recognized competition results. So you have 5+ stripes for competency in different sections of the art, gilded lining for comp results, and the normal ranking. It would be more complicated and flashy, so there's pros and cons.
