Lol gives me hitler vibes when he said “how can such primitive people achieve this level of development so fast?” about the ussr
Ancient Aliens vibes.
“These savages had no contact with civilized Europeans at the time. It must have been an advanced alien civilization. Its too absurd to think these savages could have done it themselves”

Barrett on YT is great proof. He’s an English “expat” (aka Immigrant but I digress, I don’t wanna get into a whole thing) that moved to China. Idk exactly when it happened, but he got breast cancer and was very fortunately able to get chemotherapy and even surgery in China. I don’t wanna get too into it but those videos filled me with such joy, pure happiness from seeing someone suffering given what they need without a million doctors and insurance companies jumping in and talking about it first. He’s since gotten better and makes videos to this day. OBVIOUSLY China is not a utopia and it has its problems, but it gives me so much hope for what the future may hold, against my mostly doomer mindset
Would that not have happened in the UK too? I mean i guess depending on how recent, cause i know the NHS is being gutted.
But like, I’m Canadian, and my brother had brain surgery to remove a cancerous tumour. I would not have been born if my parents got saddled with millions in debt from that. They’re certainly not wealthy enough to have private insurance - although tbf that’s not a normal thing here compared to the states because the government provides everyone with free insurance with tax money. But even if it was so normalized, my parents would not have had private insurance.
Whatever, point is I think having your life financially ruined by getting cancer is an America thing (and many poor countries unfortunately)
I love a lot of their stuff like the railway construction and the socialism. Their political structure is atrocious, though.
I love the outcomes that Chinese political structure produces, but I hate their political structure. 🤡
Some guy over there went through my entire profile to downvote every single comment and post I have made since the creation of my account.
RIP my redditterino karmerino, I shall never recover from this.
lol I’m pretty sure we have some bots running around downvoting people. I notice that I get a batch of downvotes all coming in together once a day. I absolutely love that somebody was so bothered to spend the time and effort on this.
