If you’re thinking in tickets and arrests, you’re not really thinking about justice.
China: Does something cool
Redditors: *Incoherent sinophobic screeching"
China can do all the cool things it wants, not gonna wanna live there whilst the great firewall remains up and it’s ruled by a dictator.
Why do you think anyone cares that you don’t want to live in China because you’d have to use a VPN to feed your hentai addiction?
Of course an unelected dictator would be bad. That reminds me, which Supreme Court Justices are you voting for next?
Fuck dude. My state of Texas won’t let me vote for Houston ISD board members, now that the state has done a coup de tat on the entire public school administration. Who even gives a shit about the SCOTUS when I’m getting dragged out of a PTA meeting in handcuffs, on the orders of a jumped up real estate agent.
don’t even have to go to reddit for the now that we’re federated with the redditors themselves lmao
Parent: We have Redditors at home.
Me, living in a free country with unlimited freedom to do any free thing I want: “Fuck, the police booted my car and now I need to pay hundreds of dollars in fines plus higher insurance premiums.”
You, a fucking sucker who lives in a shitty hell-hole fascist dystopia: “Damn, my car got moved to a legal parking spot, which I consider a mild annoyance. I’m going to blog about this on Weibo but not on Reddit, because I lack freedom.”
- no one’s asking you to live there 2. incredibly funny that your reason for not wanting to live there is you think you wouldn’t be able to access the internet and not, like, that you don’t speak the language or know anyone.
They actually did all the cool things for the sole purpose of getting you interested in living there. Good on you for not taking the bait
I would like to remind you that the Great Firewall’s purpose is to protect the rest of the world from China’s unlimited posting power, in accordance with the 2014 Strategic Posting Control treaty.
i promise they don’t want you
for that matter, neither do we. maybe go live on the sun
Positive they wouldn’t want you either.
Yeah maybe you should have a policy of not speaking on things before investigating them.
We all asked, thanks
More Chinese people believe their government is democratic compared to the number of Americans who think their government is democratic
liking your government is only possible through brainwashing
good things are impossible sweaty
“Dictator” here meaning “an elected leader that white people don’t like.”
That dictator’s name? Val U. Form.
fr fr
True democracy doesn’t really exist anywhere. Chinese people at least recognize they have limited political rights while westoids smugly and falsely believe they have a say.

It’s China, individual independent businesses don’t exist.
When you definitely understand the Chinese Economy.
lol.
To the anti-communist China is both a dictatorial command economy and an example of capitalism’s superiority over communism.
how can they be independent when the owners are Chinese? did they get surgery to disconnect their brains from the CCP hive mind?

Chinese people must pay taxes to the government therefore they all agree with the government on all matters
In China, people regularly dodge sales tax.
:yeonmi-park: In Authoritatian America, the people are so beaten into submission by the tyrannical IRS that “the only certain things in life are death and taxes” is a common saying.
NOOOO! There must be constant, agonizing punishment for every crime!
I have parked your vehicle in an annoying place
NOOOOOOOooooooooooo Not like THAAT NOO

Place intense slur ridden tirade here

If a Silicon Valley bro had come up with this and pay gated it behind an app called “Parkrrr”, Redditors would soyface all over this.
It’d be an insurance option here
Not paying for the re-parking option? Boot time for you
Lathed
China: Roombas that move your illegally parked car to a legal curb
USA: Exceeds the parking meter for .00004 seconds and are instantly stung with a 239530486902435769534 kromer parking fee and a boot
Me:
I took the fucking train
Reddit: [Sinophobic tirades for a thousand years]
babe wake up new car theft robot just dropped
seriously that shits impressive, i would never have thought something of that size could just yoink a whole ass car
That’s…
I HATE PUNITIVE PARKING RULES.
Just pure vision goes red rage, because the people who get tickets, who get towed, they’re people who can’t afford garages. They can’t afford off-street parking. They have to park somewhere weird because their job is in some goddawful place. It’s poor people. poor people get hurt the most by fines, by towing, by financial punishments.
Seeing someone, somewhere, not do that is incredible.
But poor people in China don’t need cars
What do you mean you don’t want to pay $15 an hour for parking?
I’d assume that the legal parking where they’d put you would be the same expensive garages that they can’t afford to park in.
How can this machine be so small yet so powerful??
Dialectical materialism
The Marxist-Leninist way of life is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.
small motors can pull a lot of weight slowly if you gear them right
They actually do this in my neighborhood in Chicago. Not with a robot, with a regular tow truck AFAIK. But when there’s a race or festival or whatever, the city just drops cars a couple blocks away. There’s always a couple confused posts in the neighborhood Facebook group looking for their car, which I imagine is punishment enough
Wtf drivers who park illegally should face consequences
If you’re a Benz driver who parks in front of a hospital, you get your car incinerated.

your carincinerated.
I mean… They didn’t say but I suspect this is just an alternative to the tow… they get a ticket anyway.
But then how do you milk people for money while the rich can ignore the fines???
But without punishing poor people for the crime of needing a car to survive in our highway dominated shithole failed country how will we pay for new sports stadiums?!?
I imagine they still give the drivers tickets. No way are they doing all that for free lol
Free cop valet? Hell yeah.
Does it work on hills or is this a strictly flat-only solution?

They’re probably giving out fines too. China loves using small fines for minor crimes.
Still better than having your car towed to some impound lot several miles away, and having to pay an exorbitant fee to get your car out.
Small fines consistently applied are more effective than random large punishments in deterring crime. Some cities even have fair checkers who can’t give out tickets, just ask you to get off at the next stop and it’s just as effective.
More effective than random large punishments, sure, but fines are still a fundamentally ineffective way of discouraging whatever behavior. If something is punishable by a fine, that means poor people aren’t allowed to do it and rich people are, nothing more and nothing less.
Fine as a portion of income.
Or better yet, require the person do X hours community service.
Fine as a portion of income.
No, that really doesn’t fix it. 50% of Elon Musk’s income is an absurd, unfathomable amount of money, and it could vanish into the ether without affecting his quality of life at all. 50% of the average person’s income would put them on the streets.
