Yes, and by your logic not all British are intelligent, well read, and easy to get along with. I could take the "Willyless" style of argument and attack the character of the person I am speaking to (in this case you) by talking about how some even manage to get themselves homeless halfway around the globe. But talking like that certainly cannot make you feel as if I am being diplomatic, can it?

Have you ever heard of FIOS? Fiber Optic Cable Internet? This is common in the USA. I have used this, and it is very fast. Also, if a corrupt Chinese government official who constantly tears down perfectly good infrastructure built within the last 5 years in his administering district and builds bigger, higher, and more empty buildings full of these fast internet connections that nobody can freaking afford, then what would the goddamn point of wasting chinese taxpayer money be in the first place?! It only makes the political record look good for said official as "improving industrial potential outlook" on his resume. You want to tell me that it is okay for these people to behave like this just because nobody can tell them that they cannot do this due to the despotic system of law?

You cannot just go around doing whatever the hell you like with the land in the USA without getting permission from town level administration that has heavy citizen involvement in a variety of activist groups. Things need to be rebuilt, and I am willing to pay taxpayer money for this. But don't for even one instant think that this somehow makes a developing country with a large simmering pot of societal problems ready to burst be equal to a developed country that is operated consistently on rule by law.

Also, this has nothing to do with race or feeling inherently superior due to having a different gene set. Chinese Americans and Chinese Canadians en mass feel the same way. Have a good weekend.

The internet sadly in america does not seem too good either from what I am reading, 15mbps satellite internet for rural areas, south korea and sweden and macau are far ahead, even the UK sadly.

Some even still use dial up in the usa. The GFW is the problem, not the internet itself.

In China, they have an infectious disease: They are commies, and the ruling party does not like them.

The ruling part is communist, you bellend.

I hear ya bro! When I worked in that country I always took the opportunity to catch up on the various TV shows and movies that the west had put out. Unfortunately the crappy internet meant bad streaming and therefore longer waits to watch them on sites like Hulu. I would agonize a whole night just to get what I wanted to watch, then crash the next day.

First of all, be "grateful" for all the cheat, deception, exploitation and mistreatment of foreign teachers there, and then kick their dirty arses. That's the way to go.

John, I think you're overthinking this one. These people are trolls, period. They just want to gauge a response because they got owned while posting under other pseudonyms.

Logically, if one side believes that criticizing both china and the west is okay(that's us haha). But the other side cannot tolerate criticism of any culture deemed non-western, which side would be more tolerant? Throwing compost on disagreements and dissatisfaction makes these folks look even less credible. By talking, they are helping our side of the argument.

and a salary.

For giving you a refuge.
