Im not worried about their practicality but rather that they are culturally morally bankrupt and revealing how morally bankrupt people like Google are.
I will avoid similar topics in the future I suppose this forum is only really fit for tech. Things that drift into political matters stir up strong feelings.
The existing systems in China place various pressures on the people there. You can't make the claim that Chinese people are morally bankrupt based on those cases alone.
The government is, for sure. However, it's the legal system's fault for letting the punishment of injury outweigh the punishment of manslaughter.
Furthermore, it's not as if Google has gone out of its way get into a position of censoring search results in China. Those search results are going to be censored no matter what. What Google does, whether they operate in China or not, doesn't effect that. All that changes is how much search-engine-generated money goes to Google or doesn't.
Do it. The post I'm responding to is in fact raw prejudice. Calling a billion people morally bankrupt. Nobody would tolerate a comment like that about black people.
I appreciate that. Slight aside -- I wasn't the guy you warned yesterday, I jumped in sticking up for him because I thought he was right about a community problem.
At the time I posted, the comment explicitly calling all chinese people "morally bankrupt" was 6 hours old and it was not gray.
Moreover, if you post another national or racial slur, like you did here and confirmed below, we will ban you.
