What's new

One of the Chinese skyscraper started shaking. People evacuated.

. .
Not just a China problem. The new Millenium Tower in San Francisco started leaning right after it was built. To me this just shows that developers want to push the limits of engineering in order to sell overpriced skycondos.

When a building is shaking in China, the whole world talks about it and ridicules and slurs are filled on the internet, when a US building collapse, it's very low key as if it's a matter of fact in life.
Reporters know what can be breaking news.

correct lifestyle is a matter of personal preference and that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about efficiency and sustainability.

You really think all the resource draining and pollution of today's China is more efficient and sustainable than the thousands of years of successful agrarian Chinese civilization?

I don't think so.

Efficiency and sustainability are all relative.

You really are a land full of truly ignorant people. It's amazing you said that.
There are reporters from all the world on site.

Even the Russians have reporters on site 24 hours a day. Listen to them saying that:


The reason there aren't reporters camped in China reporting things like floods/earthquakes and other disasters is because it happens so often it isn't even considered newsworthy.

Not nearly as much as they reported this Guangzhou building.

There were reporters from all over the world camped outside the bulding for days?

Go get a brain. Your mouth just utters dumb Chinese logic over and over and over.


Post a video of a foreign news service camped outside that building giving daily updates...if you can't please stop opening your mouth and saying foolish things.

Because it collapsed and people are still buried in the rubbles, what caused western media being so excited just because a Chinese tall building sways a bit, which is not uncommon for superhigh skyscrapers. Anyone died from this sway?

Buildings sway but it is rare to have one so severe to close down because of it.

Do you want to list all the "not uncommon" skyscraper shutdowns that happen around the world every year?

China always takes extreme cautions , like China quickly shut down every city during covid outbreak but in 2009 when H1N1 hit US, not even one city was shut down, different countries have different policies. did anyone die from the sway? why it caused so much thrill in the west?

Dude, people were running for their lives out of that building because of the swaying. That is a little bit more than the typical sway scenario.



While running for your life out of a building may be considered "normal" in China it is not normal to the rest of the world.

Much more efficient and sustainable then the US model where 90% of the population lives in little wooden houses.

While this reaction may be considered "normal" in China it is not normal to the rest of the world.
But is it really worth the western media reporting it for weeks and delibrately tried to put a bad pin to every piece of "report"? Do you really don't see the bias when western media reporting anything about China? you just pretend you don't and say they are just normal reporting.
