I was in shenzen in 1995, and it looked even worse than that 1980 picture of it. Dirt roads, dusty, dilapidated infrastructure, shoeless children wandering the streets, open sewer pits, etc. Now it makes nyc look like a third word country.

This is the state of most major cities in India right now and it's depressing

[u/UrbanCyclerPT → u/FullmetalGin]

India will never be like China. Chinese are less religious. Religion is an evolution deterrent

[u/KarelKat → u/UrbanCyclerPT]

*China is less religious today because of the cultural revolution.

[u/Mysterious_Fun4403 → u/KarelKat]

It’s not just religion. Corruption, caste based politics.

[u/nicannkay → u/Mysterious_Fun4403]

Oh the corruption is still in China make no mistake. They aren’t showing the poor who work like as slaves in factories.

[u/Dr-McLuvin → u/nicannkay]

It’s funny people will make a huge deal about workers in America not making a living wage but these same people buy tons of shit from countries that are basically built on slave labor.

[u/Fun_University_8380 → u/Dr-McLuvin]

It's more like most people don't uncritically buy the state department propaganda that these countries are using slave labor

[u/Sure_Station9370 → u/Fun_University_8380]

Wait you don’t think China has sweatshops? What reality do you live in lmao.

[u/wacdonalds → u/Sure_Station9370]

The sweatshops are Amazon warehouses

[u/exbiiuser02 → u/Sure_Station9370]

They live in ImagiNation

[u/TicketFew9183 → u/Sure_Station9370]

Most countries have sweatshops so it’s nothing crazy.

[u/IssaJuhn → u/Dr-McLuvin]

……. America was literally built on slave/low cost labor…. This is the pot calling the kettle black.

[u/Dr-McLuvin → u/IssaJuhn]

That was 160 years ago.

I’m talking about today.

[u/IssaJuhn → u/Dr-McLuvin]

Doesn’t matter if the pot is 160 years old and the kettle is brand new. Both are fucking black.
