I don’t hate being called it, I just think you’re a lazy anti-intellectual. Also funny you think we’re “grifting”. Do you honestly think we get paid for this? Someone believes something different from you and the only explanation is we’re getting xibucks deposited into our bank account? Get your head out of your ass man.
Please watch this documentary co-produced by literally PBS on the poverty alleviation campaign. I’m sure you’ll just dismiss it as all a charade and propaganda, but I hope you approach it with an open mind. What the Chinese have been able to accomplish (through sheer hard work and determination) is nothing short of incredible and it honestly pisses me off you would compare that to the literal genocide of Native Americans.
