Nice argument you’re having with yourself there, buddy. Seems like you have quite a lot to pour out.
I don’t have any affinity for China, but I also don’t like the gratuitous hate they get all over the internet, nor the reduction of Chinese people’s experience to work drones (what you’re doing).
I had hoped that Lemmy wasn’t gonna be like that, but alas.
Oh, what, you can't handle three paragraphs? Maybe you should go over to mastodon or loops then.
I question your definition of "gratuitous hate," as I haven't seen any examples of actual hatred in this comment chain. You seem like you just can't handle being disagreed with, so you make strawman arguments against the people disagreeing with you.
Calling attention to an abysmal work culture which enforces long working hours and authoritarian hierarchies, and frequently drives people to suicide, isn't reducing people to work drones. And if that's how you interpret that critique, then you have no class solidarity.
And before you cry that I'm singling China out, I'm not. The US rivals them for overall shittiness, while paling by comparison in innovation and development.
But this conversation is about China, and if you can't tolerate a structural critique that isn't even laden with hatred and bias, then, well, I don't know what to tell you...
