lol, every single american repeating "ChInA bAd" on every single thread mentioning china like automatons, while not being able to locate it on a map or name three living Chinese people", and having the audacity to talk about being under "influence"... the irony
China's living rent free in your collective mind for 50+ years while they just chug along and slowly catches and surpasses you in most aspects.
They are probably people, paid for it. The comment are too well made.
But also some are just real people from HN that are the worst kind of dumb : uneducated but smart, so they think their opinion is valid.
This is where the "history at schoolis useless" people show their true color.
Even more naive to think that the HN crowd is any more immune to propaganda than the non-HN folk.
