    They are completely unaware that “but at what cost” has become a meme. Then they mention Voldemort in the first sentence. And they call him Lord. Journalism, folks.

    Edit:

    The goal was to turn China into a green and innovative “manufacturing power”, one that relied less on labour and Western supply chains, and more on automation and new home-grown technologies. This was Xi Jinping’s vision for the Chinese economy.

    It has, for the most part, been a resounding success.

    I cannot bring myself to read from this point on.

      Xi refused to make his people do everything the long way round and by hand. How dare he use modern technology to speed up the production process and improve quality.

      Unfalsifiable orthodoxy.
