    Cheap chinese car, yes, without all the crap, you wish. They are all capitalist and learn from each other. Remember the door handle shit? It’s very much everywhere in chinese car to the point their government have to regulate the shit out of it. Chinese car maker want to export their car so bad because they can exploit without limit.

      Sounds like the system works. A problem was caused by capitalist firms doing stupid capitalist bullshit, and so the government stepped in to regulate them. What a country! Imagine if our governments would step in to regulate stupid firms doing stupid shit.

        What a country!

        Yeah if we pretend all the other issue with CCP didn’t exists, it’s a functional government.

            And the US doesn’t censor at all, and doesn’t run propaganda via media, interfere with scientific and educational institutions. Or start wars and genocides across the middle east. Or kidnap and assassinate presidents of countries. Or oppress and imprison the most number of people of any country in the world. Only China has human rights violations, not our country.

              That’s the point. Pretty much all governments in the world (except some obviously failed states in Africa)¹ are functional, but their functions are not what you and I would like for them to do.

              ¹ USA, the state of Israel, the strte of Palestine, Russia and China are all functioning states by my definition.

              You have to admit that the West is collapsing ahead of Asia. China will be also falling, of course.

                Neither of which is challenging my comment but partly agrees with it.
                Both the west and the east are on the road to collapse.
                And (as you said) the true question is when, not if.

        Corpos figured out that onerous regulations can keep out competitors who haven’t achieved the economies of scale to pay for compliance.

        In what way criticising car manufacturer sinophobe? Is it because it’s a chinese company that you must unconditionally defend it? They’re billionaire ffs, no need you to defend them.
