Chongqing China. Look at it. A K I R A

They are forcing all of the peasant farmers in the countryside to relocate to cities. They are feeding their economic machine with human souls. Think of the image of Molech in Metropolis when you think of China, OP. The machine mind of socialism at it's finest. Taking the nobility of man and converting it into units that can be consumed for greater efficiency.

NAILBED CITY

>>128858458

It is totally inorganic. Notice New York City. You can see the different eras of development and growth and it leads to a natural beauty. That is a monstrosity.

Usually when people engineer socially like this, it can lead to terrible effects. Stalin's Russia is a good example. Public works projects that served no purpose, stuff constructed that never had real purpose or value. Towns created that eventually settled back into the dust.

There is no bottom up approach to this. People are not flocking to cities nearly to the extant that they are building them. People are being forced into this. As a result you will see consequences. They are trying to take hundreds of years of development and squeeze it into one to two generations.

ive been watching a lot about china. they're on another level of civilization
look at this shit

You're 100 percent right. I think when automation picks up these situations will get ever increasingly drastic with huge skyscrapers piled on each other. The value of human life is decreasing around the world. In every country. Do you see the future for this world like DREDD , AKIRA or 1980s NYC

Thanks for this.

Yeah except it will be depressingly mundane and grey all over. It will be like Akira, but more banal and more soul crushing. There is a reason why the greatest of men and women in society held that all people are created in the image of God and are inherently valuable. First of all it is self evidently true, and second of all it was to stop madness like this shit.

So why are so many Chinese flocking to Western cities of real beauty, why are they crowding Europe with tourists and bringing their shit customs and trash everywhere if China is so great?

Why not stay in China and wonder at the amazing accomplishments and architecture of the Chinese civilization?

Oh, right, because they suck and China will never truly be a winner on the bigger picture, just a contender, forever a contender. Like it has always been.

The Hukou system does the opposite of forcing rural and suburban retards into cities. It still happens a lot but its not something the government is forcing on people.

When the building bubble crashes the crushing debt will fuel unrest in the masses. Exactly the sort of time bomb the communist party fears most.

>>128858067

china have more than 4 times the population of USA

also, they are far more urbanized

such numbers are to be expected

China's preparing for an economic breakdown. No amount of construction will protect them from it.

Looks like a Bethesda game when their level designers are too lazy to check if segments of objects and even sometimes the ground itself is actually joined together.
