    The fact that you don’t like how my argument reflected yours does not mean it isn’t valid.

    Exactly right. I don’t have a problem with the argument. It is valid. China has better infrastructure than the US, but that’s not what the “China bad” discourse is about. It’s really more of ignoratio elenchi.

      And post isn’t about debunking your racist disinformation. This post is about talking about good things.

      Are you under the impression that you’re only allowed to talk about bad things when discussing whether something is good or bad?

        Then it should’ve been more specific in its title instead of reducing the whole discourse to a point that most people dont debate on. The post’s title makes it seem like it has solved the whole “China bad argument” when there’such more to it than infrastructure. I have already conceded to you that i agree with the post. China invests properly and is economically far ahead of its contemporaries.

        I think you broadly understand what I’m saying but you just want to keep arguing because you don’t want to reach common ground with a “dumb stupid liberal”.

          I have explicitly stated that you are wrong and explained why. Now you’re trying to psychoanalyze the fact that I’m not moving from my position for vague social pressure related reasons?

          You have the brain of a baby.
