When I see these pro-China pieces, I remember that Chinese citizens can’t speak freely, exercise political will, or breathe clean air. As well as China’s actions towards the annexation/militarization of surrounding waters, erasure of Tibetan and Uyghuar cultures, and propagation of destabilizing online propaganda.

I’m sure they’d love to come live in the US though. Lines at the US visa offices in China have been enormous.

Funny thing is, I don’t see articles that say “America launches (best AI thing / fastest chip / 5g bs)” … just the company (usually international) that did the work.

Also, how many times is L4s going to repost this? These repost bots make for spammy, “spectator” forums instead of community-driven content.
