I mean you get to trade one authoritarian government for another, just the other is super densly populated, polluted to all hell, and speaks a language you probably don’t know. I mean, I guess China has their similarities to Silicon Valley, NYC, Chicago, etc.

Densely populated isn’t a problem for everyone (I like sense), and the pollution isn’t as bad as it used to be, right?
The authoritarian part is a big issue of course, but my layperson perceptions of the material conditions of China is that it’s not nearly as bad as it used to be, and is getting better
And another upside, good public transit

For 99% of Americans the authoritarian part means “I’m poor as fuck and live in a cardboard box on a rural dirt road but at least I can freely say ‘removed!’ and wont get arrested! GERD BLERSSS MERRIKER!!”
