The Chinese government has a track record of epically missing the point.
Oh smog is obscuring sight so bad our people can't see the setting sun? QUICKLY! BUILD AN EXPENSIVE MONITOR IN TOWN SQUARE SO PEOPLE CAN SEE THE SUN SET!
Or you could, I don't know, spend all that money cleaning your air.


I've heard about this a lot, and it's actually a myth. I lost the link that I read that debunked this, but here's another thing: http://world.time.com/2014/01/17/sunrise-in-smoggy-beijing/

Correction: The original post did not mention that the large screens in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square broadcast panoramic scenes on a daily basis, regardless of atmospheric conditions, nor did it state that the sunrise was part of a tourism commercial.


Air pollution isn't anywhere near bad enough in China to fill the air with smog. Yet. I think the whole thing was started by one of those click-bait websites that spin stories together or some news bullshit. Not to say that the pollution that they do ​have isn't a serious problem

Oh, yeah it's not like I really know. China keeps shit on lockdown and I'm not Chinese.

I also heard that the Chinese government denies the tank man incident.

Yeah, China's a silly place. There's no use denying things that the entire world saw, it just makes them look worse. The pollution thing though was debunked by a bunch of different people who were just travelling there. That sunset was just a 2 second scene on some travelling commercial and "journalists" jumped on it like a bunch of hungry hyenas with no regard for the truth.

Hewitt, You put a lot of effort into this forum and it shows, man. I just realized how many hot-ass threads were your idea, and came about because of your attention to detail and effort.

Keep it up, man.

It's only four shots of vodka, light buzz at best.

You're going to need double digits if you want to get hammered.

So remember when I asked about whether or not Arch-Angel and Devour were protagonist material?

Yeah, this is going to be a thing now.

North Korea can't beat South Korea at Starcraft, therefor South Korea is far superior.
