about to say as someone who has spent time in both cities on multiple occasions... wth are they talking about? The pollution in NYC doesn't make it hard to open your eyes when a low-pressure system comes in.

I have been visiting Shanghai since 2006, and the changes have been enormous every time I go back, it's a great city, lots of cool and interesting things to do, but IMO New York is still another level above it. I guess if stone age = not every building having day glow light shows going on 24/7 then yes.

Perhaps u/InteractiveBook but enjoy that Social rating score and no actual freedom.

How’s that Zero Covid policy going also?

You say “Stone Age,” but what out of the tech has China actually invented (nothing) and not ripped off?

China… the lack of imagination and copy country. Piraters all with zero originality or innovation.

I’ll take US over China EVERY single time.

Also, can’t get a real NYC slice in China either. A shitty slice - sure - but edible? Nope.

Well when I visited NYC it was disgustingly dirty, lots of crazies around. It is the biggest city I ever visited but it was certainly dirtier too.

Stone Age? Riiiight. Because they don’t have their smartphones out all the time? New York City is where all the technology you use is traded on the actual stock exchange. Don’t let a lack of LED tvs in ramen restaurants fool you.

Btw u/InteractiveBook can you tell Chinese tourists to stop taking a shit in the middle of the streets of the countries they visit?

They take everything here. So just because we still also take checks that makes us in the Stone Age then?

We also take:

  • Credit cards
  • Bank cards
  • Apple/android/Samsung pay
  • NFC pay.
  • Cash
  • and in some places Bitcoin (though that’d be dumb)

I’d say we’re more advanced because we take more - all while retaining our human rights - unlike China.

That said, what then do you think about Japan? Pretty much everywhere is cash only?

Guess they’re in the Stone Age too?

Try and keep up CCP lover.

Exactly how? Because of the gimmicky SC maglev train? Or the skyscrapers you don't own?
