You have no idea how much information and tech-of-the-times were stolen from the rest of the world by the west to make you feel it's unique to China. But oh so propaganda made you believe, west made all the progress on its own.
Go read some history books or whatever. You do you.
With ICE, you control the population by controlling the oil. Like rest of the world has to eat up price raise without much retaliation, what else you're going to do, you have to work and you depend on oil. But since China is the major producer of batteries and EVs, the nations that dictate the policies are losing that control.
So US does what it does best, propagandize the masses. Mass produced solar panels are bad, EVs are unreliable, e-bikes are a menace.
The world powers will turn the world to ruins if it serves their interests.
Hackernews, unironically named to appeal tech circles, but run by venture capital fund y-combinator, mainly to promote companies they invest in.
As such it's mostly used by techbros (MBA types) and tech companies to show-off, start drama, push their PR, damage control, and occasionally post news.
It's like linkedin, in reddit format. It's all about your connections.
The idiots who never bothered to learn more than the man's name think "big company killed whistleblower" are showing just how little they understand things
And you have supernatural powers to understand all things? Don't act like you've got it all figured out, big guy.
It's downloading an app off of an app store and turning it on. Stop trying to force your narrow perspective onto everyone else.
People who are subject to censorship, in time find a workaround. Downloading a VPN app with a big green button to turn it on is not rocket science.
There are probably lots of VPN companies targetting "tiktok" as a keyword to advertise and increase their user base. So they come up first on appstores and search results.
Now, go ahead and call people searching google is not average tiktok user.
But where that data goes after you turn the VPN on, is a different topic on its own. Maybe China itself is running a whole lot of VPN networks from shell companies.
I should start posting ads and sponsors as my signatures with every comment. This is totally not the start of something awful. It makes me happy, it's free and doesn't cost anyone else anything.
Next I'm gonna post an image ad and randomise it. Maybe code bots to upvote it to the top. Ayy, you're on to something. 🤔

We just need a rock slightly bigger than our moon to collide with it, giving it a flick to start rotation on its axis, then, in time, we can send in the dinosaurs for a trial run, just to be safe.
People get outraged and go out to protest. Why is this kind of defeatism bs upvoted? You live way to privileged to even think about being desensitized, while the people in some parts of the world even struggle to survive.
The world could care less if it is Trump or Biden. But your supposition that stopping one genocide supporter is rooting for another fascists is not the worlds fault, but your own. Democracy as you still would call it.
Stop trying to claim to be the police of the world, while at the same time also sell weapons to the half of the world including despotic regimes and genocidal ones. A very good business model, but the world is seeing through it.
We all know where your priorities lie, and it isn't Human Rights.
You must not be paying enough attention because your first point can be easily disproven by visiting any major news source and viewing the stories about the mass protests on college campuses all over the county right now.
Yes, the protests got more news time than the actual ethnic cleansing. Tells a lot about the populace.
It's fine that genocides are happening over other countries with your blessings, But hur dur… we… we don't want what we do to other countries happening to us. 😭
It's about time you face consequences of your actions.
When a religious person sees his logic used against himself.
