Oh fuck yeah. Spread it.
I am begging American politicians: Cut the shit with the sinophobia and let us have a decent train system. Think about how much money it would save to have qualified people with abundant experience helping build critical infrastructure like trains across the country. I know it’ll never happen because it’s essentially admitting that America isn’t #1 in something but god damn
You can’t just mention the Vulcan Bridge without linking the greatest WTYP ever recorded: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o19EaposFE
…ok, but i’ll be back with the timestamp if liam does a left-anticommunism
Xia said, “Local culture and religion have been fully respected in the design for the line’s stations, which all have bathrooms and prayer rooms for Muslims.”
What’s the American version of this? Double wide turnsiles and designated spaces for anti-aborton rallies?
Destroying infrastructure in the third world isn’t imperialism, building it is sweaty.
Destroying a nation: spreading democracy
Western proxy puppet government is illegitimate and collapses when no longer propped up with extreme violence: The people just don’t don’t have the democracy lobe in their brainpan, they are too cowardly
Constructing a nation: Debt trap imperialism
Forgiving that debt: Uhh… idk some kind of inscrutable celestial plot? Surely it’s evil.
I love how liberals take diplomatic moves and rhetorical methods that have been in use for thousands and thousands of years and pretend it’s some new nefarious tactic invented by either the Soviets or the dastardly celestials.
Like whataboutism. It’s called pointing out hypocrisy and it’s been a thing since people stopped communicating with grunts and moans.
Investing in infrastructure: wow, this is the first time any polity has ever gained popular support through mutual assistance, truly an evil seeseepee plot.
I could probably run as fast as the train
