He started out pretending Chinese citizens are a hivemind fully aligned with their government and hopped straight into some bullshit centrism and thats where I stopped. I dont feel like losing brain cells today. It's not that they're a hivemind, it's that their opinion rarely matters. Generally only the CCP's opinion matters. Dissent is heavily suppressed. In America almost everyone has a platform, even the fucking morons (conservatives, corporate liberals, etc.), and that results in a collective political indecisiveness that obstructs acton and is just as likely to undo progress as it is to implement it to begin with. For 4 years our national executives were trying to build a border wall instead of high-speed rail. America is fucked. --- Say it on your main. <cite>Graycap posted [p:951657773] in Bill Maher...
