I think in many people’s heads China is this cheap backwater third world country.
While there are problems over there such as tofu dregs, their production is very modern. But the Western world sees China through their tofu dregs.
I’m from mainland China and I think most westerners believes two of the extremes:
- That China is very very poor, similar to North Korea. They probably think as if its still Qing Dynasty or something.
Nope its nowhere near that bad.
Or
- China is so ahead of everyone, so futuristic and completely crime free.
Nope, also not true.
The truth is somewhere in between.
Oh no, who would have thought that short term thinking would cost us in the long term?
Are you suggesting we should let the line go up more slowly so we can still have a business in a few years? That’s heresy!
Kill his whole family and then build my bunker for the “inevitable” apocalypse that I willfully helped to create!
It’s funny that Trump acknowledges China thinks in decades, but hey, money speaks.
Remember when unions and everyone were fighting against automation. What are you shocked at here?
The North American right and left both have become extreme Luddites over the past decade. What result did we expect? Lots of people said decades ago that we’d be left in the dust.
AI is the next field that we’re doing the same thing on. The general population keeps getting influenced to hobble itself on new innovations and then we’re shocked we’re getting surpassed as these innovations continue to develop in other countries?

Slavery provides efficient ways of getting things done. What a surprise.
Actually it doesn‘t because exploitation slows down innovation which is why China keeps buying and spying on foreign companies. I would also take everything from futurism.com with a teaspoon of salt. They don‘t have the best track record. CEOs are claiming they saw the future in completely dark factories. That‘s not the best source. They‘re known to be compulsive liars and often detached from reality. Who knows what they saw or if they really saw anything.
No it doesn’t, slavery wastes an insane amount of potential. And this is far more about innovation.
