It’s China. They’re speed running the United States. They have a history of this. What was Brazil honestly expecting? This is the country whose Industries put Nets up on the outside of buildings. Not to catch construction workers that fell accidentally. But to stop exploited workers or from trying to escape their exploitation by throwing themselves to their death.

Both here and in real life, I’ve noticed that people choose to disregard this type of information as propaganda and choose to view China and even Russia as bastions of socialism and communism that they aren’t and never were.
I was in Brasil when the news broke on this and the BYD fans were making excuses for this.
