I hate YouTube face so much
His is plus 
.
They built a 1 trillion dollar failed city
stands in front of Las Vegas
Just think, that city could have paid for 100 failed military actions against the Houthis instead!
I still can't fully fathom how interesting the times we live in are where a country with a navy is losing a naval battle to a country without a navy
Real life is adapting to the paradox game meta of "jesus christ navies are too complicated I'm just not going to use them".
Or about 30 failed piers!
Its actually dogshit though regardless of the narrative because it’s meant for rich businessmen to speculate and not for people to live in. Still, tired of hearing “ghost city” in the year of our lord 2024
Yeah but on the bright side the housing stock will still be there for people to live in once the speculators eat shit.
ummm sweaty if your vacant housing stock isn't below 1% subjecting rent prices to nonlinear marginal market forces your housing policy is a FAILURE
It actually is a failure because the city is only available for rich guys to speculate on lol
i love these failed mr beast clones that turned to right wing grifting as soon as they saw the clone business was saturated.
I live in ghost city 17 in ne china on floor 17 of the ghast building.
Definitely not a photoshopped skyline.
I live in a similar city with 1M citizens
Flashback to 2008 watching YouTube. Some asshole filming in an in construction Chinese city. So empty; Wow they just as bad as us.
2010 oh, is city .
still laugh when i see people like "theres nothing in these units in this high-rise its not even finished". yeah. thats chinese culture. you buy the condo or whatever and you are literally expected to do the drywall, fixtures, and all that yourself for those new constructions. its also normal to buy one someone else owned and rip everything out to the studs and redo it. its based in some traditional mysticism or something
Yeah seems like a housing project that failed entirely. Guess it is what it is, there are many that succeeded and there's bound to be failures also lol to the speculators eating shit though
That's where they hold the communism LMAO
GHOST city with its GHOST high speed rail and bustling GHOST markets full of GHOSTS and high quality healthSCARE and a university full of BONES where you can study medicine
chad asians respecting their ancestors so much they even build them cities /s
Honestly an interesting concept for a tomb, making a living space for a dead person.
I fucking hate the anti-China YouTube algorithm, it shoves it in your face all the time.
I remember getting this one short being "China fakes everything video 12345"
Disgusting fascists lying about the place are promoted by YouTube to spread brainrot to the masses.
I'll move in. What if it was ghost city but just for the 鬼佬
This would end all haunted houses
For the record, this isn't in China. It's a project in Malaysia near Singapore that is targeted at rich people. It's basically a "sustainable" gated community.
And by "sustainable" I mean that they destroyed wetlands to build it.
It was a project by a Chinese housing developer and was an extension of the real estate bubble over there. A lot of buyers were Chinese, however, according to Wikipedia:
initial strong sales from China collapsed after its leader Xi Jinping implemented currency controls, including a $50,000 annual cap on how much buyers could spend outside the country.
The developer responsible is one of the big shots that suffered when the housing bubble was forced to pop. I have no qualms riffing on this particular project.
