And AI, and general manufacturing, and science…etc.
US done and fucked up because would rather vote for MAGA fuckwits and remain stupid as can be to feel more in tune with their shithead upbringings than think about the future.
My grandpappy got to work in the mines with a high school education! He got paid well, he could raise a family, and he only died from black lung at 43! I deserve to work a shit job for lower wages than I deserve to be able to pretend I’m getting a good deal out of society like my grandpappy pretended until he croaked! That’s when grandma got to stop pretending, too, and she married her neighbor Ruth. Fucking women ruining men’s lives and killing them young with black lung is the real issue!
Or something like that. A big big part of it seems to be genuinely a deep resentment for anyone educated and skilled, and a feeling of being deserving of a certain quality of life while not contributing much… which is wild because like… How do they not see that everyone deserves a decent quality of life even if they don’t have a great education? Because they can’t feel positive about their quality of life if they’re not lording it over someone who has it worse than them? It feels like all these things that they rail against like higher minimum wage and unions and whatnot all would give them what they want but they’re somehow too fuckstupid to put it together. It’s such a deeply fucking broken way to live, and it must be really lonely.
Pretty much. Social norms in the US have been eroded by the rich as they were by the CCCP/Russians post-WWII.
If everyone isn’t equally stupid, we’ll make them stupid to bring down the averages. All of this is about Russian playbooks on dumb fucking influencer people on the Internet. So sad.
Chinese dominate EV production, but they also need it the most. Other countries recognized the problem of being dependent on oil imports, such as Japan, and Singapore. Necessity is the mother of invention and innovation.
Human exploitation and subsidies are hardly innovative nor invented in China. All major innovations in EV are made in other countries for them. If anything, innovation puts you at the losing end because China will just copy you cheaper.
Europeans and Americans can’t make EVs cheap enough, period. Joe Biden’s subsidizes luxury cars for the rich and upper middle class. China makes cars for everybody. Califonia recently had to repeal EV truck mandate or else face a economic disaster in future.
i would much rather have a chinese ev with that long range battery tech and framework than an american car company’s ev option not including tesla which i don’t even consider a car company. they’re a shit tech company that makes shit cars shittily.
