it’s not just a register. As Chinese you literally need a permission to relocate otherwise you are essentially a 2nd class citizen and cannot use public services like hospitals or schools or as in the OP’s meme “buy a house”.

It’s almost impossible to get Hukou approved to economically rich zones like Shenzhen so basically it’s not even a unified country in that sense as if you’re born in a shit-middle-of-nowhere village you are literally stuck there as an economic slave unless you find a way to game Hukou or just ignore it and remain a 2nd tier citizen with significantly reduced rights.

I’m speaking from experience as there are legit top tier developers stuck in nowhere china because they just can’t move to Shenzhen unless they find an powerful employer to bribe the system and if you are neurotypical or disabled you are completely fucked. Guess what they do with all that talent and no legal means to capitalize on it?

Even European Union which is a collection of many completely different countries has more rights in citizen migration. isn’t that crazy?

how come other countries don’t need this insane oppression? Also did you finish the actual wiki page?

During the Great Chinese Famine from 1958 to 1962, having an urban versus a rural hukou could mean the difference between life and death.[33] During this period, nearly all of the approximately 600 million rural hukou residents were collectivized into village communal farms, where their agricultural output—after state taxes—would be their only source of food. With institutionalized exaggeration of output figures by local Communist leaders and massive declines in production, state taxes during those years confiscated nearly all food in many rural communes, leading to mass starvation and the deaths of more than 65 million Chinese people.[34]

The 100 million urban hukou residents, however, were fed by fixed food rations established by the central government, which declined to an average of 1500 calories per day at times but still allowed survival for almost all during the famine. An estimated 95% or higher of all deaths occurred among rural hukou holders. With the suppression of news internally, many city residents were not aware that mass deaths were occurring in the countryside at all. This was essential to preventing organized opposition to Mao’s policies.[35]

The bootlicking is crazy here.

Lmao Chinese can’t even move to the other cities of their own country.

I’m a parent and legit think that majority of parents should not have been parents and have no minimum required skill to raise a human being. It’s sad because it’s really not that hard but most people don’t think a day ahead when raising their kids and just follow a “vibe”, so spending a weekend on parental controls is an insurmountable task.

I don’t understand why any brand is on it. I ran a big brand account on tech product and there almost zero conversion rates coming from Twitter despite thousands of likes and views.

Twitter is mostly bots and grifters and only product you can grow there has to be for bots and grifters.

Advertisers have made their bed too. I almost fell for some scam/phishing ads myself and that’s it for me - no ad is ever showing up on any machine under my control. If you can’t maintain your side of a social contract then you lost it.

Auto upload to cloud that someone bas access to. Even Google photos with shared partners will automatically download your partners auto uploaded videos and photos. This should be more than enough until nazis take full control.

Totally and it’s a great illustration how diversification is crucial for any organized system. If we started to diversify earlier we not only would have more economic power now but avoided thounsands of conflicts as well.

Though a bit of optimisim here - seems like we learned this lesson and most countries are taking energy hedging very seriously these days. I don’t think we’ll ever have a new resource like oil again.

I’d agree but oil is absolutely next level to all of that. Entire countries are basically held hostage by energy supply which was never the case before. You could cut off trade and that’s the worst thing you could do but now you can fundamentally disable the entire country as oil is so fundamental to everything.

Oil was such a massive security mistake that we’re still collectively recovering from it.

Appreciate your work!

.ml needs to be defeated as it’s a cesspool of flavored fascists.

Which also led to countless war, murder and torture campaigns.

Thailand is incredibly welcoming and my favorite place on earth. You’ll have no issues with your transition here though you need to make real money abroad or have good set of skills (like certified teaching) to get local employment.

Thailand visa is very easy. You can get elite visa which is like 12k usd for 5 years.

Nah you can’t do laundry fast enough to not sleep in fur constantly. My dog has his own bed and he’s short haired and still I have have several air purifiers and clean at least once per day to maintain everything. So people who sleep with cats are straight up hoarder territory of nasty imo lol - tho I don’t judge as connecting with an animal like this might be well worth the mess for some people.

Imagine sleeping in cat hair tho

Turn them into a little server that you can host self hostable services on

It’s absolutely possible to remain just and free while being secure. Skill issue.

Maybe read it again?

Or you can be smart and just and have your cake and eat it too. See dozens of countries that prosper without sacrificing their freedoms and justice. You guys are just doomer losers simping for dictators because your minds are too small to imagine a real victory.

Not even going to reply to your strawman. I said that it’s weak mentality to say “ends justify the means and sacrifice justice and freedom for the sake of fighting a foreign oppressor” - maybe that’s easier to understand? Weak people, weak minds, skill issue.
