Just a “Lol” no more explanation?

Those seem to be some of the long term results of the parts of conformism like conformity, group priority and social harmony.

Not worth it in my opinion.

I can’t stand that everyone is forced by sociaty to be the same.

I’m not like you, I have my own thinking, my own style, by own taste in music, my own taste in food, etc. etc.

I really like diversity. Let’s look at the music from mainly collectivist countries like China or Korea. There is K-pop and uhm I guess that’s all I know (and I live in Korea). Then let’s compare it to the a individualistic country I lived before like Sweden:

• Electronic Body Music
• Metal (with all it’s subgenres)
• Rock
• Pop
• Electronic Dance Music

And each of them have their own subculture. Yeah you get the point.

I think the main thing which I would have problems with would be the collectivism and confucionism which I really can’t stand. I don’t think it’s necessary to replace English, it’s not American anyway. The rest sounds ok to me, as long as they don’t kill my normal Linux.

How about you read about it in the local newspaper?

Billionaires should not exist.

Does that mean also no musk-mobiles in China?

He got so much more out of Twitter than we could have imagined, he lit the USA on fire with it, that’s worth much more than the couple of billion lost. I think TikTok is even more powerful than Twitter.

It’s a match made in heaven, win, win, win for every autocrat involved.
