Every government is busy with some form of "do stuff for the country".





It seems clear above commenters are referencing that China performs better at accomplishing certain tasks, such as large scale infrastructure development, that isn’t comparable to other countries that “do stuff”.

I’m always skeptical of what I will call the admiration of “despotic efficiency / accomplishments”.

I’m not sure how efficient or how long accurate their success / failure rates are.

Especially when blocking a service would seem to have no impact on it…
