  I mean its not “clean” its sterile, not “pretty” but empty of color and creativity, not “low crime” but void of human agency, not “high trust” but kept docile by threat of violence.

    This isn’t even touching the scene in the second d game where they forcibly implant her with a chip that puts ads in her vision

  Being in the in group under fascism needs to have its perks, otherwise there would be no incentive.

  You are free to admit you like dictatorships, extreme policing and eradication of creativity and human emotion.

  If you look at the death star, see grey, white and black imperial uniforms, how terrified people are upon making a single mistake because those incur the death penalty, and the disregard for life, both of victims and their own troops, and you think “that’s a society I want to live in” there is really nothing left to say.

  It’s clean tho!! Can’t are argue with that, right?

  China stands as a current authoritarian model which is being championed by people like Australian economist Steve Keen.

  If you can handle the ethnic genocide, the lack of due process, suppression of information and free speech, and no democracy, you can look forward to clean streets, low crime, and high economic growth. Some people believe that’s a worthy trade. I do not.

    Way to learn the exact wrong lesson from china.

    China does a lot of good and a lot of bad.

    We need to learn the pragmatism, government investment and holding private companies accountable part from them, not the censorship and surveillance.

      I fear we are doing the opposite. Worst of both worlds.

      How did that old joke go?

      Yeah, I’m at a point where I kinda hope China becomes the world overlord… I’d rather “fuck you, society comes first” than “fuck you, billionaires come first”.

    Also lots of skyscrapers and little old-city feel, lack of public transit & bicycle paths and mainwalks, lack of greenery.
