    Did... Did you really just try to argue in favor of cardboard houses in danger of collapsing THREE years after they were built?

      every home in china has collapsed twice since this video was posted. china will collapse any day now, I swear frothingfash fash

      I am generously assuming your propaganda for the purpose of this argument and just go with your orientalist view that the chinese can't figure out building shit based on some cracker's youtube spewing

      I'd rather have a home that might collapse than no home at all like so many in other countries, yours included, with police who will literally beat me half to death for sleeping in the wrong place, who are in most places the primary instigators of homelessness as they throw people onto the streets at the behest of some petty landlord, while gleefully destroying their personal property in the process.

      There was literally a video like yesterday of some american cops destroying people's shit only to stop to salute for the national anthem

      But yeah it's the EVIL SEE SEE PEE PEE putting people in TOFU HOUSES against their will. The horror! What evil authoritarianism, so unlike MY country, one of the GOOD ONES. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

      Go back to reddit, lib

      My BOY how is that not better than sleeping on a piece of cardboard on the sidewalk??

      Anyhow, what, is every single home in China a flimsy shack? Can you dredge up one single solitary study on what percentage of homes in China are of substandard construction? Can you do any goddamned thing but regurgitate half-remembered unsubstantiated talking points from youtube from lord knows how long ago?

      If you can, have it. Give us a source and we'll have a talk about it. Otherwise, shut the FUCK up

      Your understanding of Chinese infrastructure isn't rigorous if it's entirely based on some sensationalist viral videos of some places which look bad. Yeah, it's a massive country with a billion people, some of those places look bad in a video. I'm not happy about the bad construction you see there, nor the real estate speculation causing some of it (which isn't a communist feature).

      You can find lots of videos of places in the US and Canada looking bad too, only it's like cops destroying the tents and property of unhoused people in the streets (of note, there's almost no homelessness in China). But in response to those we might say "oh that's terrible, they should fix that" and not the "we gotta overthrow the authoritarian government" when it's about China.
