Please please please report this story just like how you will do with Robodebt; with disaster recovery; with your typical approach to government negligence. Otherwise you are doing what chinesr state media is doing right now: phrasing it as a culture war btw HK and China.

The whole China-HK distinction is just part of the implication of the event, but that’s NOT what people are concerning. They are questioning about if there’s negligence. Get the facts right before you publish analysis to suggest there’s a culture war.

Because it explains why so many chinese mainlanders, esp those who observed/took part in White Paper protests in 2022, are triggered by this incident, because White Paper also started with a fire in Urumqi where gov locked up the building for Covid-zero.

But it’s because so far besides the arrests, theres no gov response to if theres negligence on residents’ complaint around safety issues 12 months ago. They are concerning if bamboo scaffolding is used to cover up alleged government negligence.

This is important to distinguish…

That’s why I’m moving only at 33…I think that’s when I would prefer spending a year in a place just by myself hahahahaha

*Two months before 2025 ends

Probs. China’s history curriculum is written in a very Marxist way - you have to learn the causes and outcomes, contributing factors etc. And that idea of individuals only playing small parts in the development of history. So you’d end up learning both when it comes to Ancient Rome
