No, china sucks. I lived there.

Get a new bucket list. Unless that bucket it the poo-paper bucket next to poo hole in the ground.

As to how either have money or bring your own TP.

My sweet summer child. Oh how green you are. You put the poopy paper in the poopy paper bucket next to the hole in the floor that you squat over and pray you hit the hole. You also put the poopy paper in the poopy paper bucket next to your toilet at home.

Not necessarily true. You’re guaranteed work and a minimum wage and if you’re disabled government will take care of you. Also basic healthcare is basically free. Things like electricity and telecom are subsidized too. But no, it’s definitely not a socialist utopia. It’s oppressive and censored and restrictive. Hyper consumerism is the norm.

Don’t forget no hand soap in the hospitals.

You’ve always had to pay for TP in China. Free toilet paper in public restrooms is exceedingly rare. Same with hand soap. So honestly this is an improvement. The west got this one right I’m afraid.

It’s the old people. They still remember famine and live like they’re going to go without any day now. Honestly how randomly china manages stuff the old people are probably right.

Yep. My Chinese colleagues hobbies were shopping and shopping.

You’ve always paid for TP in China. At least now there’s a way to get it for free. I see this as an improvement.

Even the dogs are lostjobs to AI. When will it stop?

US Train travel has actually gotten worse since 1996.

Chinese people seem way more informed about current events? 🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂. That’s gonna be a no from me dog. Clearly you’ve never talked to the average Chinese person. There are vast swathes of current events and information they’ve never even heard about. They’re well informed about the topics that make it past the censors, for sure. My god you’re just as misinformed as everyone else. The only difference is your misinformation is “china good” misinformation. Which is sad, there are a lot of things to point at in china that are legitimate “China good”. Like fast, cheap/free and effective healthcare. The best in the world high speed rail. The closest to a meritocratic education system I’ve seen or heard of. Virtually zero homelessness. But when it comes to censorship, nah, they’re wayyyyy worse. Yeah, the west can be better than china then some things. It’s okay buddy, you can be objective you know

Most Chinese don’t have access to a VPN. Do you need a VPN to access that information? The fact that there is an extra step to access the information means that china is more censored by default. There’s also the fact that at certain times of year all consumer VPNs are blocked (June 4th is one of those dates, oddly enough)

Yes, I’ve heard of shadow banning. The censorship in China is still worse. I’m not saying censorship doesn’t happen in the west. I am saying it is much more widespread, oppressive, and complete in China. No amount of you crying is going to change that fact.

Yes, there is censorship. But the information is there if you search for it. The fact that you’re typing the words “genocide in Palestine” and I am reading those words pretty clearly demonstrates that the level of censorship in the west is no where near the level of censorship in China. If the CCPs position is “Israel has a right to defend itself” you would never even know there’s a conflict in Gaza.

The guy’s a braindead pedant. He’s not here to have a discussion, he’s here to feel superior.
