You are right that every country has its problems, and the larger the country the larger the problems can be. All I’m saying is, if I had to bet on one countries future as just an average citizen, I’d choose China easily. I appreciate the sources, its a hard subject to learn about objectively.

Got any sources? Anything from the last 10 or 15 years?

Ah I gotcha, fair enough!

Plus, at taco bell, you can get like 5 or 6 bean and rice burritos even if you add a few toppings to it and have it toasted, for the same price of one burrito at chipotle.

Yeah I think the sofritas burrito or bowl is like 10.99 or 11.99 where I live. The meats more expensive though.

Chipotle used to do that too.

Are you trying to tell me that many restaurant chains have premade food they heat in a microwave?! Wheres Gordon Ramsay’s kitchen nightmares when you need it?!

Do you boycott every company thats had a breach?

Most americans dont even know Chinese people vote for politicians, they think they are just told what to do all times of the day.

Its a good idea, I’d like to see how its implemented though.

Ah fuck! Does minoring in animal biology count?

Is chinas wealth inequality worse than america? Do you really know what’s happening in Xinjiang? Chinas economy is the fastest growing because the western world exported every bit of skilled labor there. The west trained them on everything they know, and then stopped training their own people on the same things. China has problems but people constantly acting like its a third world country and so far beneath any western country is extremely laughable.

Even more rididiculous are comparisons to the US which is about to be shattered apart by civil war.

I dont think we are meant to be in too large of groups at all in any sense. Companies are too big, some countries are too big too. I’m sure there are other examples but its more a general theory ive had lately than a proven thing.

America doesnt have free speech.

The only reason it seems that way is because western countries would use that to control their populations, and you are likely from one of them and are fed anti-china propaganda.

How does a post where you make a bunch of uneducated guesses about a country get only up votes? Oh right, china bad, got it.

If only China would live up to the shining standard of the USA…

One country is spiraling into civil war while the other is the fastest growing economy in the world, and yet its the suicidal countries citizens constantly talking shit about the rest of the world.

China is not a third world country. They aren’t oppressed people. America is both of those things.

Its like you both think if add enough caveats that its actually smart. What I’m saying is, is that the caveats are excuses that allow people to turn an obvious negative into a positive. Not everything can be a positive “if you just look at it the right way”. Thats absurd, and shows that your morals change depending on the goal.

Fucking over the general populace for money is not smart. I dont know how much more simple I can make it. People who think its smart to do that, whether they do it directly themselves or not, are part of the problem. Consider reprioritizing your values and what you consider to be a smart move.

Your upvote ratio on this comment is deeply concerning, and reinforces the point many others are making.

To an american, there’s always an amount of money they will sell their morals and values out for. Most of these up votes are from americans, or westerners who have fallen for american propaganda.

To pretty much everyone else, they would have enough money already. Why waste time pursuing more money when it will literally change nothing in your life.

You could have just named Bezos directly there…
