Im in my first year of college in the USA and I want out of here. I feel like anything I learn in college here will just be exploited by capitalists if I stay here. Should I stay in college here or look to get out earlier. If I stay should I change my major from computer science to computer engineering. If I leave how do I actually get to china/ gain citizenship there?

    You’re probably not getting Chinese citizenship. I’m sorry. China just isn’t that kind of immigrant country. You can get a visa to study or work there though. China recently introduced a visa for young skilled professionals. You live there for a number of years on a visa, and you can then look into ways to get a longer term residency permit. And of course it’s much easier to get that if you’re married to a Chinese citizen.

    But since you’re still in college you have much better opportunities than most of the rest of us do. The best thing you can do is to look for a way to do a semester or two abroad in China. While you’re there learn the language, make some connections, get to know how the academic system works. Then, once you get your Bachelor’s degree, try to enroll in a Chinese university for your Master’s.

    Either that or look for job opportunities in China with your degree. As i said, China is currently very welcoming to educated foreign professionals and they have streamlined the visa process a lot for that purpose.

    But in any case i would strongly recommend that you look into the possibility of going abroad for a semester during your studies. Even if it’s not to China. You won’t regret it.
