People living on the streets are just a small price to pay for the better economic system we know.

Freedom to live in the street

vs

Tyranny of 15 Minute Cities

I like all the proof they gave for it being the best economic system (that we know).

[-] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 33 points 7 months ago

I'm definitely convinced (that we know)

Is this yet another Canadian acting like they are an expert on China because they're 1/4 Chinese and visited extended family once for a week 10 years ago?

[-] DayOfDoom@hexbear.net 42 points 7 months ago

More likely english teacher or Chinese wifeguy in my opinion.

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 36 points 7 months ago

Yeah, the "lower class people" is a bit of a giveaway there.

Canadian born Chinese, swallowed the capitalist pill so hard he wants Canada to privatise their healthcare.

Capitalism isn't perfect but it's the least bad option

A soda machine

~~lemonade~~ China isn't capitalist so it's bad

~~cola~~ China is capitalist but erm it's still bad

Sweat. Indecision. Presses both.

Hmm, I wonder why most poor people care more about money than talking shit on the internet. Truly a great mystery.

"The system here results in people having literally nowhere to sleep, nothing to do and nothing to eat, but it's definitely the better system (I am in the class of people who do get somewhere to sleep)"

Go be homeless and enjoy the fruits of capitalism then, make your words into actions

I feel for the kid, ethnic Chinese growing up in the west falling for capitalist propaganda to the point he wants Canada to privatise their healthcare.

I can only imagine the sinophobia of the recent years subtly pushing many ethnic Chinese overseas to distance themselves from the evil seeseepee and over correct to becoming this.

Edit: even with liberal brain worms, this guy still understands the Dalai Lama is a lunatic and Tibet is a part of China
