Yeah did a little research

Using the available data, the rate of reported violent crime on the NYC subway in 2024 is approximately 0.79 violent crimes per million riders.

Perhaps the HK mass transit system is safer, but I’m guessing not by that much, considering the ridership and crime rates, especially because they don’t report specific crime rates for mass transit that I could find but rather generic crime statistics

Gotta love this comic with subtle tones that “public transportation is dangerous” and this comment with “Chinese public transportation isn’t dangerous.”

Safe as long as you agree with Winnie the Pooh and the CCP

作为喺廣州來嘅美籍華裔,我希望有一日,中國大陸,香港,澳門,得到都更多自由。

獨裁主義喺世界上好多嘅國家都受到獨裁思想嘅威脅,而家連美國嘅民主正在衰退,但我希望世界既人民能團結,一齊消滅所有獨裁政權。

消滅中共,消滅普京政權,消滅川普政權,民主萬歲!

100%, friend. We will never give in to dictators!
