I dunno why you have to hate saying that; China and the Chinese govt are doing freaking awesome things that the world should envy, and they deserves lavish praise. Period. And I’m speaking as a red blooded Texan.

They’re into some shit, too. And have problems, including major ones conflated with the real estate crisis.

It can be both. Westerners don’t have to be walking stereotypes that ponder ‘China evil’ with every other thought, like Lemmygrad seems to think. I mean, what leg to I have to stand on?

It doesn’t mean we have to just accept the human rights violations or papered over crises or whatever either.
