Yes let's train this alien thinking machine on how to kill humans with efficiency, what could go wrong

Different kind of complex 😅 to be honest is more complicated than complex. Believe it or not it is done the old fashion way, we use string and lacker to seal the envelops like in medieval times, and the protocols dictate that all present must sign and write their recount of events. It's a lot of fun and paper

Some things are meat to be time consuming and hard. You cannot hurry things like learning or maturity, our current world has convince us that faster is always better, but that is not always the case. I always volunteer for voting counting and despite the fact that it takes from 7am to 10 pm on a Sunday I enjoy doing it, you feel like you are part of the cogs of democracy, doing your part to ensure the democracy works as intended, like you take part In something greater than yourself, you set aside your political filiation and do your part

I agree, I live in a country that still uses papel ballouts (Portugal if you're curious) and on election day representatives from.diferent parties, volunteers, and government officials count the votes by hand, the whole process is bureaucratic, time consuming, and incredibly complex, but that's exactly what makes it almost foll proof, there is no way you can alter votes in a meaningful way without a lot of people noticing, and even if by some miracle you did, the very next day all the votes get re counted in front of a judge and other set of volunteers chosen randomly.

I'm not saying there is no bad, I am not stupid. But the information we receive in the west is so one sided that I have to question everything they say about China. For example, the "social credit" is something that doesn't exist in China, yet we saw endless news articles in the west about it, made me question what else are they lying about, as it turns out, a lot

All I see is their sacrifice paying up, their standards of living increasing and they haven't invaded any country on almost half a century

Don't bother, he likes to eat his propaganda by the spoonful. China kills 100000000000000000000000000x 10*9 yogurts every minute, etc. Every accusation is an admission of guilt, what they blame China is exactly what the USA has done, still does, and will do
