It's the DeepL translation that was then line edited.

I read Chinese papers using Google Translate regularly (and DeepL is better than that) and it works well enough and the only problems are usually with colloquial expressions and some names. Like when Wang talks about prostitution he says that in China, it's understood "to mean 'prostitution'" in quotation marks which I didn't understand. Does Chinese culture quietly tolerate prostitution and consider it normal? Like it's technically illegal but it's basically decriminalized and it's not hard to come by.

Anyways, whether you read it or not, trust the translation or not, or get something out of it or not, is up to you.
