are you having a stroke
nope just getting ready for bed lol
i was here months ago originally discussing electrical engineering and parts sourcing
kaetaa seemed like a nice kid back then with a cute chinese gf
idk what happened between then and now but wew
pointing out problems with modern chinese way of life/incompatibilites with western culture=literally eugenics
SeemsGood
yo dude trust me i know filial piety and many aspects of confucianism are bullshit
but you guys are throwing out the baby with the bath water you know what i mean
there's chinese americans that have figured out ways of making their culture mesh just fine here
it will take time for the global village to gel and catch up
i mean we don't come out smelling like roses either dude
manifest destiny and economic sabotage has been the flavor of american diplomacy for decades and it's not exactly... friendly shit
well at least they don't mix their 200$ red wine with coke
and that's good enough for me
Wonder if Chinese wine is a meme.
yeah whoever does that shit needs to be ducking drawn and quartered
but i don't think people in say Hong Kong or Taiwan do that right
The western style. They have all the ingredients for it but who knows if they messed it up.
and they're chinese, are they not
so ironically those places have a large part of the original chinese culture intact, before the cultural revolution stripped it all away in the mainland
taiwan and hong kong still use traditional chinese writing and still practice ... kinda silly shit like Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine
but those places are somehow more civilized
maybe because they're economically better off, right
Because communism is a meme that is a virus
Also they were exposed to non shitty ideas
maybe being poor makes you desperate and do subhuman shit to survive, and being in a place with an insane economic disparity makes noveau riche assholes do stupid shit
i see it in china and i see it in manhattan.
my friend in england got scammed the other day because she was too trusting of some stranger on craigslist
and lost her money trying to sell an old phone
that shit happens in most places in the world with social problems. happens less in germany, japan, and singapore.
happens more in china
rich countries with good social nets
your point?
yes definitely
happens a shitton more in china
a metric shitton more
my point is that maybe the problems aren't so much because of culture and race alone as much as it is a problem all societies face when they go through rapid and violent change
cause the way you say shit kinda spreads general hatred of a people who are capable of kindness and good
and that's... not a good way of building a better future for anyone
but also saying that 60 years of dirt poverty doesn't contribute to chinese society is frankly wrong
