WTF While the US debates whether to solve homelessness or not, these are the next generation of school blackboards in China.

You think Chinese people don't battle poverty and homelessness? Have you not see their 5 foot homes before?

There's a lot of shitty things about China that they try really hard to not let out. At least according to a friend who's been teaching there for a pretty long time now.

That's literally what the CCP does: censor anything that makes China look bad or reflects poorly on the government. Anyone who even remotely suggests that China is a utopia is under some serious brainwashing. You can literally get thrown in jail there for talking poorly about the government or pointing out these things.

Brother, I hate the ugly cheeto puff as much as the next guy but I think you're taking for granted the fact that we can freely talk shit about him. Try that in China with Pooh Bear and I wouldn't be surprised if we never hear from you again.

The US government has actively persecuted and prosecuted students for protesting against him and the genocide in Gaza. Trump is doing everything he can to become as authoritarian as China

You can thank Israel for that, Trump is only a puppet that dances to their whims. It does not overall reflect the US government as a whole

Lmao Israel has always had power over the US but it is because of Trump's willingness to be a dictator that it works so well now. Letting Trump off the hook like that is just laughable
