It wasn’t you, you were the one being helpful, but I didn’t understand what you said anyway

Yeah, I’ve got like 10 people ahead of me

I really regret joining this site to talk to people. If I’m lonely I should talk to Chat GPT or something like that. I feel like absolute garbage.

Hey, this is way more detailed and this does help me understand, or at least it gives me a start and a little bit more context. It still sounds really complicated and I still don’t get it but I guess this is a very technical thing that I’ve got to do a lot of reading to understand. But based on some of the comments, I don’t think I’m actually smart enough to do this. Sorry, I’m just going to move along.

if you’re a cis man there is absolutely no reason for you to be offended OR to insert yourself into this conversation. This is not for or about you right now.

Jesus H Christ. I’m going to have to block you too. It’s a shame, other than the fact that you enjoy meaningless internet debates you try to force on people who don’t want to fight, you seem like a nice person.

I’m afraid I’m going to have to block you. Peace.

Nope, I’m not going to answer your questions. We are not arguing or debating. I am not going to restate my point because you know what my point was. I absolutely refuse to do this with you.

Ok bro. Please stop replying to me. Thanks.

??? No??? I made a comment, the person who replied WILDLY misunderstood why I made the comment, and then tried to bait me into fighting with them. I am refusing to fight, and you’re trying really really hard to fight. That’s how I see this interaction right now.

China has good things and bad things, America has good things and bad things. You can probably end up in a black prison or a work camp in either country, depending on who you are and the context of why you’re there.

I do not believe that China is a person, so it cannot do good or bad. It is a location and a government entity.

I see many Americans not seeing the US for the vile garbage it is.

There isn’t really anything in my posting history or comments to indicate I’m one of those people, so there is absolutely no reason to come at me sideways. America sucking doesn’t make any other country suck less. I don’t believe in comparisons.

This bullshit doesn’t deserve a response. That person is Chinese, or at least speaks Chinese. I am sure they know what problems their own country has.

Holy shit you mean that both countries kinda suck? Man, that’s heavy. I mean sure I think my country sucks worse, because only a total fucking bootlicker would gargle the balls of a government that was openly screwing them over, right?

Once you touch the lever you become legally liable.

Thanks, I will look at all that, however

It has been my experience that when someone understands something, they are capable of explaining it to someone else. For example if you asked me how to make tea, I wouldn’t give you a youtube video and tell you I can’t explain. I’d tell you that you’ve got to get a cup, boiling water, tea leaves, one of those little metal balls with holes in. Do you know what I’m saying? I’m having a really hard time comprehending the tools utilized by typical usenet users because I do not understand how it works. When I ask for clarity I am pointed back to the same confusing materials. There has to be at least one person who knows what usenet is and can explain it to another person, without telling them to get the explanation elsewhere.

So you’re saying that China is exactly like America, almost 1:1, except it’s more densely populated and everybody’s Chinese?

Well if you call the cops you’ve done all that is required of you. I guess you could also call the engineer.

How often is that able to be utilized? For example, there is a filial piety law, but elderly are still abandoned occasionally, right? I heard from a friend that the pension elderly are able to sue their families for is very low, and nursing homes aren’t as popular. In most countries, there’s what exists on paper, and then there’s what actually happens.

China isn’t better than the US, it sucks equally, but in totally different ways.
