What’s your problem now?

I’m guessing the Chinese diet doesn’t have as much corn syrup in it.

It’s mocking Trump and MAGA’s fantasy. For the workers it’s providing them with work that is unpleasant, poorly paid and painful. For the factory owners it is ending up with staff that just aren’t going to be productive.

As for toiling for a pittance: Trump is trying to devalue the dollar and erode workers rights in a race to the bottom. Apart from the fact that, as others here have pointed out, the endgame would be automation the intermediary stage is pushing those in precarity and poverty into jobs that don’t benefit them in any meaningful way.

But the Chinese, being somewhat keener students of human nature, have distilled those arguments into thirty seconds of comedy gold.

Gotta link to that?

And it’s not even the fifth weirdest thing you’ll see on the internet today.

I know, impressive effort.

Turns out this is false, the actual story is much better: https://www.vice.com/en/article/chinese-woman-fake-russian-history-wikipedia/

Some decade and change ago I used to sell people Drupal installs at £200 a pop. They’d get a pretty secure codebase, the ability to add content through a gui and if necessary have customer accounts.

Pretty much what killed it as a business was everyone expected to be on the first page of Google because business advisers were telling them that sitebuilders should do SEO as standard.

Might just as well show a dog a card trick.
