thelastaxolotl [he/him]AmeriKKKan incapable of understanding how another country is able to built High Speed Rail so they must be lying
kittenzrulz123I mean to be fair we do have a high speed railline on the northeast corridor that goes all the way from Boston down to DC, I suppose it could extend down to Florida but the money would be better spent making a high speed corridor on the west coast.
DragonBallZinn [he/him, they/them]Bro, 20% of the US is in the northeast and another 10% is in California. Just build regional HSR’s. Don’t tell me you think a fucking train is literally impossible.
BarneyPiccoloFlorida was supposed to start building a high speed rail system years ago. Then Rick Scott got elected governor, and unilaterally cancelled the program, something he never mentioned when he was campaigning.
He later replaced it with a standard rail system that he had a 3% ownership stake in, because that’s how Rick Scott rolls.
Dessa [she/her]On Xiaohongshu, I see the opposite, where some Chinese people refuse to believe that the US has a homeless problem, or thar our cops are beating innocent people.
SpookyBogMonsterWhat’s their reasoning? Liberal brain worms?
ComradeSharkfuckerGenerally it boils down to, “no way it’s actually that bad lmao” and “that’s just our state slandering its enemy” which are fair perspectives have imo. I’m envious that the reality of American social violence is absurd enough to be unbelievable to them.
