As you said, these can be found on Douyin, a Chinese app where Chinese people publish things about China.
If you wanted, I could have posted the numerous videos of Chinese people eating their own shit, or my own friend eating raw donkey testicles in Anhui, or indeed, the other videos of Chinese people eating live mice which is, by the way, a dish oft eaten in Guangdong, China. They call it 三叫鼠.
There's plenty of options. You're obsessing over one detail which doesn't at all derail the narrative that I'm trying to share from the Chinese - not created by me.
As I said, I might not have done a perfect job but that's exactly why I wrote the paragraph immediately above the video
19 - why did you cut together a bunch of irrelevant clips?
Very relevant, showing the silent sentiment of Chinese people who are the ones sharing these videos. As you may notice, not all the videos are 'bad'. Some are just showing what things are like. It's quite sweet and brave seeing neighbours socialising on their rooftops and, though uninformed, admirable that such extreme action such as the pointless sterilizing is taking place.
I tried to portray what was being spread on Chinese media in only 15 minutes, basically
So why are you using video from Vietnam to represent Guangdong? Do you even live in China? It seems you can't even tell dialects apart.

Again, why are you obsessing over a meaningless point? The thing happening in the video was A) shared by a Chinese B) a prevalent practice in China. If you really want I can make the whole video again and swap that video out for one of the ones showing a Chinese person eating them instead. Would that please you?

Do you not see the irony of this? Ok - cut together 20 of your "worst of China".

You'll have to show me the irony, yeah.
20 of my worst... I'm not interested in creating such a negative sentiment. But I can list a top 10 if you want:
1 - Yulin dog festival
2 - Mass surveillance/social credit system
3 - Xinjiang 'training centres', and hanging signs on Uighurs around their necks calling them dogs for not wearing masks
4 - various TCM such as poop tea, urine, rhino horns, unregulated herbs and powders (including placental powder)... Fertilized and almost hatched bird eggs (again, Anhui delicacy)
5 - Fake water, beer, gutter oil, baby supplements etc which has caused innumerable fatalities
7 - A lack of animal protection laws meaning people who were found dragging dogs behind their car until their paws and belly were worn off, intestines spilling out, well, they were hunted down by the public masses, chased and beaten because, at the end of the day, the guy only got a small charge for 'dangerous driving' only out of pressure from the public. This was not an isolated incident either. Videos of boiling animals live are prevalent and in my own neighborhood, a cat had its tail boiled off and, to my despair, died since I was unable to capture it to get it treated. Others in my neighborhood include a man caught with 1,000 stray (and some owned) cats hanging from bags in his apartment being prepped as other meat to be sold to restaurants around here. Of course, the charge was for selling illegal meat, not for murdering people's cats)
8 - People's homes demolished with 48 hours notice in the snowy winter of Beijing, and banning anyone help those now homeless with blankets and such
9 - Creator of Wechat groups arrested for something somebody else says in there, girl arrested, fined and banned for singing the anthem kinda badly for 2 seconds. That kinda thing (of which there's a million examples) - general totalitarian control
10 - General racism we see on a day-to-day basis, including plenty of videos from Africa of Chinese workers humiliating or abusing their 'stupid monkey' colleagues, teaching their kids Chinese sentences that mean things like 'I'm a monkey nigger'.

Oh and to give a proper answer to this 'why', Well, I live here but my Chinese isn't great (yet). What I have noticed, and is widely accepted in fact, is that Cantonese (Guangdong/HK) sounds remarkably like Vietnamese, particularly the south, due to their shared history, borrowed words etc. 60% of Vietnamese are borrowed from Chinese.
If I'm not listening out specifically for what's being said, I can easily mistake Cantonese for Vietnamese in exactly the same way I can mistake Italian and Spanish if I'm not focussing, too.
Thankfully, as I said, this is not even relevant because it's still an absolutely true occurrence in China
