- insane_dreamer 9mo agoit's not comparable, not by a long shot; the level of insider dealing, corporate theft, and corruption, is nothing like what's in the US (that is until Trump 2.0)
- overfeed 9mo agoHan chauvinism is comparable to Manifest Destiny across multiple dimensions. AFAICT, both groups believe(d), despite initial conditions, their authority is pre-ordained and they are/were taking the nation to it's rightful place in the world/history. Other folk they encounter(ed) are bit-players and don't have the same rights, privileges, qualities or shared destiny.
- insane_dreamer 9mo agoI agree with you on that. My "not comparable" comment was in regards to my post about the rules, not specifically the "you're not Han" issue.
