65 percent of Americans own their own house
Stop paying your property tax and see what happens lmao. Or wait until the government finds something they want on your land and eminent domains your ass. Unless you have your own private army and are ready to fight the government owning land is always just a lease from the state.
Miss a bank payment or two.
But it is in the constitution that they have to pay you fair market value if they eminent domain your ass while in China they just don’t renew your lease and you get nothing. Tell me how communism will lower my taxes? Lol
Like the right to free speech? Free press that suppresses news that contradicts the Western narrative? The right to bear arms as long as you're a fash not a Black Panther type group member? Right to a lawyer unless you're any kind of migrant or the wrong kind of citizen? You embarrass yourself.
I think you should look up what Chinese nail houses are lmao. I couldn't possibly imagine talking so confidently about something I knew so little about.
By not charging property tax for a start. Also but muh taxes peak lolbertarian brainworms.
First off holy fucking chauvinism go die. Second of all Mao wasn't perfect literally no one thinks that. The cultural revolution especially in the form it took was a major mistake and the lack of real agronomic knowledge during the great leap forward worsened what was a natural famine into a major countrywide disaster. But I digress have you considered bashing your head in with a brick to see if you can reset your brain so that you may become a better person?
Defensive. I must’ve hit a nerve. You aren’t a troll though.
A troll isn’t a racist word. It has an actual definition
Orientalism is racist. Troll, in our own spaces. Project, cope, and seethe harder.
No but the assumption that because I'm Chinese I must be a troll and the "say something bad about mao" absolutely are racist you disgusting crakkker. Go die.
Why the hell are you jumping to racism and purity tests?
It’s not racism. A troll is anyone paid to convince people of one opinion. If you are a professional then I dont need to waste my time trying to convince you of anything
An average Chinese citizen can’t access this website so I can only assume you have special privileges
I'm not Chinese, and it's easy enough for Chinese citizens to get VPNs. You aren't going to convince anyone with this level of argumentation, paid or not.
More orientalism. You really know fucking nothing.
You cannot be more than 20 years old. You speak like you have a child's understanding of the world.
