Well first, the US political system is a total mess. In any good system the amount of criticism McConnell gets should impact him, thereby making the ability to criticise valuable.
But yes, I certainly don’t think that China is the dystopian nightmare that it is sometimes portrayed as, and it certainly does many things well. However covering up tragedies is still a point worth criticising, and any point worth criticising is worth criticising often (in the hopes that it might change one day).
And this goes for any country, good and bad (by whatever metric one might decide that with).

The reason I think it is somewhat of a big deal is less the fact that it happened, but rather the fact that the Chinese government seems like it tries to hide it, or at least downplays it a lot.
Compare with Germany, where some of the most horrific events in history took place. But Germany acknowledges it and actively teaches people about how bad it was.
The current Chinese government still seems to be trying to cover up for the mistakes of a previous government. (At least, as far as I am aware)

I know right, while reading it I kept thinking “I can totally see how people might start to believe these models are sentient”, it was fascinating, the way it was “thinking”

If you have the wealth to afford a housemaid, then any way of spreading that wealth to others in a non-manipulative way is good.

Out of curiosity, what is the climate/temperature like there, in the big cities? I imagine it being very warm
- Comment on How do I realistically get out of the US? 5 weeks ago:
Americans who want to leave are clearly able to identify the problems in the US, and are therefore probably not the ones causing the problems over there.
And in general we should welcome people who want to change their life conditions. Freedom of movement is important.

I got gifted the Atomic habits book a few years back. Unfortunately one of the habits I don’t have yet is reading. Still haven’t started it.

Looks really interesting, a bit like Infinifactory maybe?

Why do you automatically assume that “Chad” means bully?

“hide behind science justifications” maybe I’m misunderstanding you, but isn’t basing opinions and world views on science exactly what people should be doing?

The soundtrack on this video was a banger too

Hello, this concept of editing an existing image to serve a new purpose is known as a “meme” :)

What was the subreddit that makes fun of people who never believe that kids ever say anything bizarre or ask unusual questions?
Your comment belongs there.

I mean, it is weird in the sense that it is unusual. But that doesn’t make it bad, in fact it should become more normal.

total overkill
One might consider it the nuuklear option

Honestly her liking him or just pretending is irrelevant. Start by learning “offering to rub someone’s feet (or any other somewhat intimate touching) is NOT a good way to flirt, even if they do like you!”
