Why are you explaining me my home town and calling it China?
Also, how about we get a source on these claims?
I can't believe you forgot about this, but here we go
Socialist china has a higher homeless rate than capitalist hell-hole USA
Oh my god a horrific accident is being used as an example for all of China being a fucking hell hole.
The most populous country on earth cannot have horrible accidents happen, and if they happen then hell on earth.
My guy just because I've heard of a notrious Rączka from Wrocław doesn't mean that suddenly of all Poland is full of sickly people nor does it say anything about us as a whole country. And we are not even the size of China.
Also:
Good one. lmao
Actually talk to people from China sometime. For weeks all wechat was was people saying "yeah, it sucks, but I'd do the same"
China was so much better when it was run by the imperialists and their running dogs 🥰. People alive there remember living in mud huts and starving; now their country is building a space station and almost entirely responsible for all the poverty reduction worldwide that’s happened in the last few decades. And isn’t the case basically the opposite for the UK? You guys used to be powerful but will soon be living in mud huts under the glorious aegis of Joe Biden?
Yeah, it was a real cultural revolution for China. A great leap forward even.
The great leap forward was bad. I know this because the Nazis in the CIA have told me so 🤓
I know it because my mother lived through it. But go off, I guess, comrade.
Was she a running dog of the bourgeoisie like yourself? A terrible tragedy that she lost her slave plantation to the evil communists.
The only people that praise communism are those that never lived through it.
I love how you didn’t deny it when I claimed that the evil gommunists were bad for taking away your mom’s slave plantation. If communism is so bad, why do 95% of people in China approve of the government, according to American pollsters?
I didn't dignify the juvenile barb with a response. Take it how you like.
The same reason 99.999% (there's a 0.001% margin of error) of North Koreans love the Kims.
A combination of patriotism, indoctrination and fear. Talk to Chinese people sometime. In person, not on WeChat.
On a racial, genetic level they are just too fucking stupid to understand that it would be better if the USA transformed China into Iraq, I agree.
Whatever, kid.
Do you really think that the USA has benevolent intentions for the Chinese people? That the USA is legitimately concerned about their rights? That it wants to do anything other than transform China into Libya?
The US doesn't care about the Chinese people. There's no malice, there's no ill intention, they just don't care beyond the vague 'hope they find democracy someday' schtick. This whole geopolitical shadow war you worry about only exists in your adolescent head and the heads of your equally juvenile comrades.
Go outside and try to be a contributing member of society. Maybe even meet a girl. Or a guy, if that's your thing.
I've spent six months in Guangzhou and three in Qingdao.
Because I spent six months in Guangzhou and three in Qingdao.
