Comment on Trump Is Obsessed With Oil. But Chinese Batteries Will Soon Run the World
WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 19 hours agoWhenever I hear news of China, they built a new electric railway, invented something new, or made massive tech progress.
Whenever I hear of USA on the other hand…
…they are still following the philosoohy of the people who explicitly said they want the human race extinct.

A lot of things in China fall apart in a few years. You can build things fast when you don’t care about people’s rights and just force them off whatever land you need, and make people work insane hours. A lot of the amazing things China brags about is a Potemkin village, just made to show the authoritarian leaders they did got the project complete on time and they in turn use it in their propaganda. Authoritarians always love to brag about making the trains run on time, right? The reality is often different from what the media portrays it to be in an authoritarian country.
But still, China is slightly preferable to the US at the moment.
