Liberals on the internet who've never been to China: "Wow, they can't even access Meta (TM) or X (TM). How do they live?

Me, a Chinese person visiting NYC: "Why the fuck is there no cell signal or Aircon in these subway stations? How do these people fucking live like this in the wealthiest city in earth?"

Holy shit, she actually says the "means of production" in that clip. More proof that the capitalist class and their flunkies understand Marxist ideas, just with the adjectives reversed.
