This is like the 4th attack on a crowd in China this week
Holy shit I only know of 2.
Is the car the gun of the Chinese? WTF is going on with people who want to murder the masses????
nah the car is the car equivalent as it is to the US. The death rates by cars are quite comparable. It's just it happens so frequently it is not worth reporting, and society has deemed the deaths acceptable to defend continue using them and keep the capitalism machine spinning.
It never fails to amuse me when Americans want other countries to have the same "mass murdering school children daily" thing we do. But it never is even remotely comparable.
Interesting what amused you.
For me, it was just an observation that I have seen a cluster of similar news stories, and you really should not read too much into such a simple statement.
”is the car the gun of the chinese" is the kind of question you will never see asked about the british due to their gun control. it is a strange thing to say if you think about it. the US is pretty infamous for car ramming attacks
what substitutes for guns is knives
Why? Because it makes you uncomfortable?
Americans shoot up schools and feel awful about it because we are incapable of dialectical thought. Chinese people, the billions there are, have murderers in the population like every other country. Conflating these things ("is the car the gun of the Chinese?') is insane and I will never not call it out when I see it.
Doesn't make me as uncomfortable as much as it makes you a pedantically sad 'edgelord'
It seems a lot more edgy to conflate a country's systemic school shootings with another's isolated mass casualties.
Sinophobic intentions with that image, I'm sure. Unfortunately, I'm American. Your bigotry doesn't even work here.
