      Yeah, and the irony is that the American wealthy elite built up China and also gave them our technology. They saw the Chinese authoritarian/slave factory model as the one to implement around the world, so they lent their support to the Chinese govt. China did not build up like this due to their own smarts. It was stolen from us.

    I've spent considerable time traveling in China. Never once did I feel anything Communist about being there. You can go weeks, months without seeing any police or military. The cities are far better than US cities, the standard of living seems much higher than the US. Until you have been in that country long enough to not feel like a tourist, you can't understand that China is kicking America's butt in just about all catagories. I fully expect China's currency to become the default world currency replacing the US Dollar and America becoming a second class country. Bill is totally right, the US citizens are a silly people compared to the Chinese.

      Thank you for your compliment! China still has a lot of problems such as high housing prices, rat race education system, weak medical system etc.. but nothing like Genocide or force labor. And It has made tremendous improvements in such a short time. I'm very proud of the Chinese government. As a Chinese now living in Europe, I feel that only those who have been to China or learning Chinese speak good things about China, while the ones who've never been to China always attack China or the Chinese government with misinformation and fake news they learned in social media. Nowadays there are more and more Chinese people returning back to China since we are quite disappointed in the western countries.

      @@lordchikage9015 The 72 hour "996 workweek" (9 AM to 9 PM, 6 days) is hell of a lot harsher and wears out people way harder than the 955 in the States, but it got massive pushback, with most workweeks being the standard 40 hours in most industries. Alibaba's CEO got a ton of shit back then for posting stuff glorifying the insane grind that is 996. There was a real mass movement of young employees "lying flat" and doing the bare minimum in protest, especially as the hugely competitive labor market meant that even many with solid credentials ended up hard pressed to find decent jobs. The government didn't intervene and go give them "big problems", even though it likely could
      Oh, and the "suicide nets" story comes from Taiwan and honestly is probably just there for more general saftey purposes.
      You might also want to look at GDP PPP per capita and wealth inequality, and then factor in how there's plenty of expenses most Americans pretty much have to pay that are much more optional in China (one example being cars, on account of China having a great transit system. There's also how China has much higher home ownership rates, meaning less rentals per capita). These expenses stimulate the economy numbers by moving money around and therefore boost GDP while making the lives of the general populace worse. It's that classic joke about how breaking windows and paying to replace them boost the economy on paper while otherwise doing nothing.
      Going back to your slavery point, no. The USA, put it lightly, is hilariously inefficient when it comes to tons of stuff (like healthcare. The White House spends more per capita on healthcare than any other country on earth on worse results, likely due to those funds getting sucked up by the pharmaceuticals industry who also happen to spend more on lobbying than weapons manufacturers and oil companies put together). Bullshit Jobs by Graeber does a good job of illustrating the insane waste of people's time that is built into the economy, primarily at the service sector. This isn't nearly as big of a problem in an economy still dominated by actually making tangible things.
      Additionally, with the massive prison population, the hugely lopsided incarceration rates for POC, and how prison slave labor was actually enshrined in the constitution through the 13th amendment, you can't seriously state that slavery ended in the USA. It just got some nicer words painted over it and shoved under the rug.

When I stopped and said that Chinese kids were a wee bit more attentive, they looked at me like I was some sort of criminal. Their teacher even come to the podium and said to them (I swear I'm not making this up): Excuse him, he's from Europe, over there, they are not used to how students in the US operate.

It appears to me he just wanted to do something similar for the whole country, and instead of supporting that, you were busy arguing for deliberately causing an economic failure just to get rid of the guy who actually wanted to fix all the stuff you are now complaining we aren't doing!
      We had ONE guy saying Chynah! Chynah Chynah! While the entire blue anon manufacturers of consent, such as yourself, were busy gaslighting and distracting us 24/7 about Russia.
      You think your precious Beijing Biden is going to push back against the new rising empire or fix any of this? No.
      YOU wanted this Bill, so don't pretend like you are the one spitting truth when this is the very failure you have been rooting for all along. You are part of the problem!
      Maybe instead of demanding to know when America was ever great and screaming about racism (that originates from YOUR party), you could have said: hey, we have a checkered past, but let's put that behind us and work to make the country great NOW!

The Dr Seuss company wants to cancel that book be because it says "a Chinese man who eats with sticks"? Anyone from China would say that that's an accurate depiction. The drawing isn't racist either because it's exactly how they draw themselves. It would actually be more offensive if it were drawn any other way.
      All the canceling of and renaming of sports teams. I haven't heard of any native American tribe speak out against any of these names. Only recently has a representative from the Cherokee nation say they want Jeep to remove the Cherokee name of their vehicles. Nothing on all the sports teams though.

He won’t name The current administration or the Milwaukee chapter of “Drag Queen Story Hour” who’s head was just arrested for child porn. People will say “drag queen story hour” has nothing to do with China’s advancement ahead of us ...but are they lying to themselves? It’s an example of every city council that is FORCED to devote countless days in allowing something like this into their city because American parents can’t be bothered to read to their kids for ONE solitary hour. Or is it really because of that? I posit that the people who send their children to these folks are doing it in order to boast on Twitter and to their liberal friends that they “are helping marginalized sexual orientations.” Would the Chinese care about this? No. Would they even allow it? No. Common sense tells me that groups who want to read to, and demand access to your children’s based SOLEY on the fact of their sexual orientation (being a drag queen) are dangerous. It’s like “reformed rapists” demanding to teach women how to bake, something is wrong. But if you say it, Bill Maher’s party will jump down your throat.

    Bill only touched the tip of the iceberg. China is now a cashless society , it has implemented 5G mobile , connectivity between cities is incredible , it’s infrastructure is impeccable , personal and property safety is world class , the people are super hardworking , air pollution has improved substantially , services like fd delivery, ride hailing, package delivery and online shopping is seamless, subway lines everywhere. I cannot see US catching up even in 20yrs.

Trump was a loud mouth who babbled a lot about China but in the end he had no coherent plan or direction. China knew this and ran circles around him, even when he and the Republicans had control of Congress in 2017-2018.

Unfortunately, that never happened and all we have now is the result of the most free and fair election ever.

      He took the US off the international stage with his nationalistic policies, leaving a big void around the globe. Guess who filled that international leadership void? China, with mega infrastructure projects in S. America, Africa, Middle East and S. Asia. Also, while he continues to worship his coal and oil company patrons without supporting any green tech, China and Germany are the leaders of the future green technologies.
      To top if off, while the US and other western countries are hoarding vaccines, China is shipping millions of vaccines for free to poorer countries around the world.
