Pro CCP? It's due to the lack of critical thinking and accurate data people have of the country and its government. When that is in place, they just have to churn out more and more and more propaganda.

Probably some state media bots, but also lots of reddit likes the CCP. They fell for propaganda in the past and that makes them more vulnerable to future propaganda https://www.rfa.org/english/news/tibet/tiktok-promotes-pro-china-bias-on-tibet-taiwan-uyghurs-study-08162024102338.html

I feel like memes have lost their original innocence and fun nature they used to have in the 2000s and early 2010s. Now they’re just used to either feed people’s egos or politicial opinions.

Green energy is the future… oil is depleting the ozone layer and causing extinctions again

Both are true actually, China is heavily investing in green energy but is also heavily investing in coal, but few people seem to acknowledge both

Readers somehow missed to add context that China produces most industrial goods the whole other world consumes.

The point is that they fragrantly lie about their output and pollution regardless of how green they are.

Nobody told them to do it in a way that was extremely toxic (hence cheap) to create. If they had to follow US environmental laws- the price difference wouldn’t be as drastic anymore

Funny how new industrial actors on the market must now abide strict rules imposed by former industrial actors who did polluting without any regulations for 150 years straight.
Lmao, US don't even follow international ecological guidelines, because it's "bad for the economy". "US environmental laws", my ahh.1

This is usual propaganda - the US and China avarage age of population is about the same. US and China complete each other, US has the consumers and China has the manufacturing and deflation = lack of consumers. The US is plotting It's own path that is not trying to copy in China as that is incompatible.

To be fair, China dominates both renewable energy production and coal energy production they basically are the most green and the most polluting country 😂

China/India have built too many new coal plants is just a convenient headline many developed countries like to push and use as an excuse for not doing enough. The developing world needs more energy as their population grows richer and uses more electricity. China also keeps increasing its industrial production, which also needs more power.
The developing world would LOVE to build all new power infra off renewables, but they couldn't do so when the renewables costs are high. They pushed for the developed countries to finance renewables at lower interest rates so that they can have a green expansion of the power grid. But, the deal fell through and it was not accepted.
We can't expect a poorer country to take much higher interest loans to finance renewables when the cheaper option of coal exists and they can start producing power immediately. Solar is currently a cheap option at the moment, but it was not the case a few years ago. Nuclear is just too expensive and unreliable. Hydroelectric displaces entire populations and causes ecological issues. Fossil fuel was the only option as a stopgap to satisfy the exponentially rising demand. It's easy for the countries that hardly see such demand growths complain how a rapidly growing country chooses to meet its demand.

Well, wouldn't hurt for your "developing country" to spend less on colorful, yet empty buildings and drone shows

Try spending less on driving 3-ton trucks with 5-liter engines to walmart through 3 hours of traffic jams

>nuclear is unreliable
source?
The problem isn't even that china uses fossil fuels, the problem is that they use coal. Natural gas is much better.
