What's funny is I can't tell if you're talking about younger Americans refusing to hate China or older Americans chanting "China Bad!"

[–] nekandro@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Both tbh

American failures are being used to prop up Chinese successes. This is particularly true in urbanism discussions. China is by no means perfect and thinking that they are is harmful to progress.

Perfection doesn't exist, but China is on the right track imo

Have we forgot about the fucking Uighur concentration camps? Suddenly there's no waitlist for organs after these camps start going up? China bad.

300,000 people are on the organ donor wait-list in China at this very moment.

You're a perfect example of the power of propaganda lol
