There is no part of Singapore, Hong Kong, Taipei, Shanghai or many other East Asian cities where it is impossible to wander safely late at night. Whilst this might not be sufficient to define a civilized society, it comes close. It is certainly necessary to any such definition. They are dominated by populations that, due to biological heredity, deep cultural traditions, or some entanglement of the two, find polite and pacific social interactions effortless, and worthy of reinforcement. They are also open cosmopolitan societies, devoid of chauvinistic boorishness or paranoid ethno-nationalist sentiment. Their citizens are disinclined to emphasize their own virtues. On the contrary, they will typically be modest about their individual and collective attributes and achievements, abnormally sensitive to their failures and shortcomings, and constantly alert for improvement. Complacency is almost as rare as delinquency. In these cities an entire dimension of social terror is simply absent.In much of the Western world, by contrast, barbarism has been normalized. It is considered obvious that cities have bad areas that are not only impoverished but lethal to outsiders and residents alike. Visitors are warned to stay away whilst locals do their best to transform their homes into fortresses, predators control public space, aggressive menace is celebrated as attitude, educational aspiration is ridiculed, and non-criminal business activity is despised as a violation of cultural norms. Every mechanism of socio-cultural pressure, from interpreted heritage and peer influences to political rhetoric and economic incentives is aligned to the deepening of complacent depravity and extirpation of every impulse to self-improvement. These are places where civilization has collapsed, and a society that includes them has to some extent failed.

>>217208374The problem is day-night cycle, they can't turn them on during the day, thus losing half of the GDP to the sun.

You know how they use satellite images to estimate GDP from light pollution?
which chinese ETF should i invest in?
>>217211301r u retarded? I wish they got developed earlier so they could have cool Chinese art deco instead of glass dildo slop
>>217211399The only countries I ever see calling it slop are countries that don't have it.
>>217211457every country has glasslop, 3rd world shitholes have more of it since they build alot and it's the only design that seems to be built nowadays
>>217211525No one looking to the future wants outdated architecture. If art deco was the future, the world would look like this by now (and you'd probably still call it slop). Cyberpunk won, deal with it.

>>217211680>people come in the millions to cities all around the world to look at "outdated architecture"Only when it was built in the era where it belonged. No one wants to see a modern replica of it you cow. Do you see millions of people traveling to see the US replica of the Parthenon in fucking Tennessee?
Imagine a world without Jews. Europe could be liek this.

Alex really mind broke this Thai Chang didn't he?
China puts lights on their buildings yet doesn't give a shit if they explode. To Chinese this is a good trade
China is in the top 15% most polluted countries on earth. You also can't drink the water and the buildings are made of extremely dangerous material. But they put lights on the buildings so it's ok

>>217208194>>217211662>>217211825>>217211906Nick Land is a foreign (read: an outsider and more privileged than local people) retard who doesn't know a glimpse of the complexities of the societies he mentioned. All those 4 cities are deeply westernized, very wealthy and relatively liberal, and such structures necessarily rely on many forms of inequality, both inside and outside of the cities, inside and outside of the country, China (see: >>217214664). Not to mention that Singapore is itself an independent city-state, and HK a special financial zone. Also he wrote that back in 2012, I wonder how he felt when he was locked in his Shanghai apartment in 2022 for an entire month, and doing PCR tests every single day.If the Western world has decided to commit an intellectual and civilizational suicide, that's entirely your faults and you have no one else to blame but yourselves. If you jump from here into thinking that all of 1 billion Chinese people live happily because of "new colorful lights", that the Chinese society is somehow free from the horrors of the modern materialistic capitalism which was introduced from the West, you are as deluded as Land. ("an entire dimension of social terror is simply absent." LMAO, this sentence tells me everything I need to know about his arrogance and retardation.)这几年治安的确提升不少,但说治安差是四十年前就夸张了。十几年前广州火车站还是聚众吸毒和拐卖人口的重灾区,广州人都知道能买广州东站的火车票尽量买东站,如果去广州站尽量结伴。我周围所有认识的女性,从家人到老师到同学,都遭遇过飞车抢夺。直到2010年左右我在上海上大学,出门双肩包背前面还是基操,全班同学人均丢过一辆自行车,也有同学在地铁上制止维族小偷被打伤。大概15年左右,我回国大家还说贵重物品看好,你去旅游景点一不留神相机就被人顺走了。到18年左右,国内车圈的共识还是川渝地区不要买crv,因为那车防盗不行,隔壁藏区对城市SUV的需求又高。你今天买明天车就在青藏高原驰骋了。同时期还有几起滴滴司机杀人案。之后监控突飞猛进,国内治安的确提升不少。加上微信支付、手机远程定位、汽车防盗技术提升,偷抢的收益越来越不划算,不如电信诈骗。说白了中国人也就过了不到十年的太平日子,而且这是用钱堆出来的。现在财政吃紧,有些地方已经关闭监控摄像头了。结果一些人就膨胀到中国治安吊打世界几十年,也是搞笑了。中国的安全是相对的。老公打老婆,父母打孩子,警察哪怕上门也只是调解,让你们别闹大,别出人命就好。父母如果愿意,可以把孩子送去豫章书院、杨永信这类地方请人虐待。还是那句话,只要不出人命,打成傻逼都不要紧。但你在微信你说一句草泥马习近平,保证你当天就能进局子,警察绝对没心情和你调解。

>>217214963> the Western world has decided to commit an intellectual and civilizational suicide, that's entirely your faults and you have no one else to blame but yourselves.

("an entire dimension of social terror is simply absent." LMAO, this sentence tells me everything I need to know about his arrogance and retardation.)That’s all you boomers and glowies can say. That Chinese “happiness and success is a facade” (without any evidence you say this, nor is it provided. If provided, it’s the most low-IQ propaganda only the most brainrotted old republican could believe). That, and that Ted Kazainsky was actually right: technology and capitalism and socialism is ackchully all evil anyway and we were supposed to living like Amish or like Celtic tribal pagans the whole time. Never mind the fact that these same boomers and glowies were very quick to laud the technological and economic achievements of the West compared to the primitive 3rd world up until the 2000s. As soon as the West fell behind, actually we were on the wrong tract. Sounds more like sour grapes than meaningful critique.
>>217211906Amazing how smart he was all the way back in 2012. I only just realized all this recently once I started learning more about China outside of American propaganda lens. It’s really true. And time has clearly proven this correct.
>>217216594>You will never be a ChineseYes, that's what I've been telling you, Alex. You were the one who insisted I was Chinese. And now you're back to square one, still not knowing who I am, while everyone knows who you are.
>>217211927Jews hate Chinese because Chinese outmaneuvered the Jews. During the Cold War, Jews needed Euro-Americans to help defeat the Euro-Russians. Euro-Russians were anti-Zionist, and also their socialism and Slavic ethnocentric nationalism put a limit on Jewish power. So they became the new Nazis to the West. After the Cold War, with Eastern and Central Europe pillaged by the Jews, the Jews turned on Euro-Americans because they either hated Whitey or at best, distrusted us. So they sent all the industrial manufacturing to China so we wouldn’t control the world and thus couldn’t turn against them. They had planned on this transfer of wealth making China either fall like the Soviets or become a globohomo state pilliged by Jews. Instead, the Chinese used their new wealth to empower themselves and expand greatly. Now Jews only rule a country of old weak boomers and weak useless browns. And are hated by half the country because Zionism is a losing issue.

>>217207951Anyone have that Christmas house comparison image?
>>217217971>needs rare earth>to make missilesWhat's the point of appealing to retards who would believe this? Rare earths are primarily used to make things like solar panels and wind turbines, China didn't make the tech nor has it been used for missiles even after they received it so they could mass produce said solar panels. Is it people trying to start a panic over China? The US still relies on Russian uranium and even Europe was hooked on their gas/oil, but rare earths? You can get them in the US or Scandinavia extremely easily, and the tech isn't obscure just no one has a want to mass produce solar panels, except maybe Portugal for whatever reason.
>>217218717>What's the point of appealing to retards who would believe this? Rare earths are primarily used to make things like solar panels and wind turbines,rare earths are used for everything. each f-35 made requires around 400 kg of rare earths. we know it's important because it's been an exceptionally powerful bargaining chip for china that even forces trump to back down.
