See, this is a reasonable use of horrible dystopian technology.

It doesn't excuse the rest of it, though.

Oh so I don‘t have to worry about China‘s increasing emissions output because they use unhinged mass surveillance and terror against the people to put a band-aid on it. Cool…

I would be happy for sensors at traffic lights that detect whether cars are there or not. I don't consider that to be meaningful surveillance.

[-] [email protected] -1 points 3 months ago

But they already have sensors. That‘s not what China differentiates from the rest here.

I am used to tankies on Lemmy but man, if you say China isn‘t an Orwellian surveillance state you‘re just lying through your teeth.

I expect nothing better from someone who uses the word tankie and parrots western propaganda.
I bet you also use "+100 social credits" and been told about this imaginary spying system. Show me proof of this "Orwellian surveillance state".

I know the land Orwell comes from has the most survaillance ameras in the world per capita and nice facial recognition vans driving around and parked in front of stations.
and if you're a germ you shouldn't really be talking.
Always on the wrong side of history.
Try protesting genocide and see if you won't get violently beat up.

Sheesh, if I didn’t know better, I’d say I didn‘t just find a Tankie but a full blown Wumao. Talk about projecting.

[-] [email protected] -1 points 3 months ago

You indeed really don't know better.
Enjoy your third consecutive year of recession as a direct result from the terrorist US country blewing up Nordstream ,forcing you to pay for their fracking gas. Companies are leaving your finished shithole. OC germs keep sucking their dicks since they have to be on the wrong side of history all the time.
Tell me how that working out, LOL
