    My Brother in Baphomet. I live in the United States of Corporate America.

    We have 800 military bases all over the world and the last time we were the good guys in any war was World War Two. And only then begrudgingly. Our govt loooooooved bad mustache man.

    Right this very minute. In the year two thousand and twenty four we have a BOOMING slave labor industry and half the country wants to bring back child labor.

    Please. Tell me more about how terrible China is. Do go on. I hope there’s a PowerPoint. Spare not 1 detail.

      American shortcomings do not excuse Chinese atrocities. I’ll refer you to the Ughyur, Tibetan and factory dorms people for more info.

        US hegemony has led to more human rights abuses and outright devastation than any other nation in history, and it isn’t even close.

        Fix your own country’s bullshit before crying about anyone else’s.

          No thanks. In the end, this thread is about whether the United States should blindly trust technology from China and the answer to that is no.
