One of the only reasonable comments in this thread full of ignorance

Does public transport, which acts to serve the public, NEED to generate revenue? Of course its good if they do, but don't see it as a prerequisite.

Idk about you, but I would rather have an excess of underutilised rail then the 0km of high speed rail that is in my country.

You're very ideologically inflexible. Instead of engaging with other modes of development / forms of government, youre just telling them to leave your country.

Why don't you open your mind a bit, and learn from the experiences of others

> learn from the experiences of others

They are wrong. Here they can be wrong and survive, there they cannot. By law. We learn what we can from the laogai ren/laogai fan (劳改犯). (Thought criminals, laogai being reeducation camps.)

> ideologically inflexible

Perhaps. At any given time, possibly, but over time I think I disagree with you.

They're still leading the green revolution. You're criticising on of the countries doing the most for climate change because they aren't perfect. Seems might unfair

So should China trust US stats and data? Since the US is apparently an adversarial country?

There are only disadvantages for the US to skew stats and data since much of the global economy depends on it. Whereas it’s advantageous for China to skew stats and data for the time being as it rises to be a peer adversary militarily and economically.

>So should China trust US stats and data?

As of a few months ago, the US has demonstrably proven that they are willing to lie about stats and data because the president throws a hissy fit at reality, so, no, they absolutely shouldn't.

China does have a pension system, not sure where you got your information from. Are you instead arguing that their pension system is not adequate?

Nice non sequiter

im confused, what has that got to do with this cyberattack?

what a randomly baseless statement

He's not wrong, it's called "the dictator trap".

Eg. For Putin. Yes men: Yes, Take Kyiv in 3 days and it's a done deal.

Reality: lose > 300 k. Troops, a major portion of all Soviet tanks, risk of Russia splitting, occupy part of Ukraine instead of the whole, lose 300 billion € in Western banks, bring other countries into NATO, risk sphere of influence, Russian military strength debunked, ...

Additionally: paranoia

The only thing that was correct of Putin's analysis is that corrupt people mostly "support" him. ( Trump, Orban, Xi, Erdogan)

Their propaganda failed where it matters ( except in Slovakia concerning the EU). However it's still in Africa, but don't have enough info about it.

Not saying it's all of it, but could some of this reputation be from propaganda and attempts to smear chinese tech? Seems like a pretty common MO from the USA
