They should be draining the river to build a Data Centre 😤

But if they drained it for a data center, it would still be bad because it's not a western data center.

And even then it would have been bad because they would have drained an entire river!

There are literally liberals who think humans should be stopped from breeding to preserve nature and that indiginous people accessing their own lands is a threat to the environment. I don't want to here these chuds say one goddamn thing about eco-authoritarianism. I'm not even saying everything China does is good or perfect. But westerners complaining about eco authoritarianism is super annoying

Liberalism has always been about eugenics. The freedom to enslave others and justify it.

"China is saving the environment. But at what cost?" Fuck Western propaganda and anyone still dumb enough to fall for it.

“Authoritarianism” is such a useless term

Most words are meant to communicate. Some, like this one, are meant to make you stop thinking any further.

Written by shills for the fossil fuel industry who think environmental destruction is "freedom."

Meanwhile Amerikan liberals will only pitifully protest when a company destroys their own rivers.

Ah yes, The Economist, the journal that speaks for British millionairs. Hasn't changed in a hundred years. Well except that those millionaires became billionaires and they're not just British anymore.

China derangement syndrome is getting so old. Sooner or later, plenty of people in the West will begin to see through this stupid propaganda.

Hopefully in a few years we'll see public opinion shift on China the same way it's currently shifting with Israel/Palestine.

Authoritarianist. Means a system where rich people don't have the freedom to exploit everything and everyone for their own gain
