    the game is the game. they spotted the sucker at the table and felted him.

    but more importantly while we sink trillions of dollars into laughable hashtags like "AGI", china casually and conscientiously applies the available current technology towards solving actual real life problems.

    yeah a lot of what constitutes 'china' is dogshit fascist horrors but at the end of the day, their society is moving forwards evolutionarily and ours is moving backwards towards anti-intellectualism and economic/social inequality/instability.

    i get that the 80 year cycle plays into all this here in the states but when we come out the other side, chinas going to be the only superpower left. whether or not we rebound from that is another conversation entirely of course.

    This does not provide a solution for most fractures that require splintered pieces of bone to be removed. I call bs.
    Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

    Wait until you hear about how they treat dissent in China, and how many rights workers have.

    There's a reason stuff gets built so cheaply.
