Chinese Courts Rule Companies Cannot Fire Workers Simply to Replace Them With AI - Judges classify AI adoption as a controllable business strategy rather than an unavoidable disruption, shielding employees from automation-driven layoffs
Turns out when you run a government like a corporation properly, you can think about long-term profits instead of only next quarter. It isn’t fully-automated luxury gay space communism, but it’s a hell of a lot better than neoliberalism.
It’s not nearly as authoritarian as people like to claim. Chinese citizens hold tens of thousands of protests each year against a wide variety of topics, and the government is legally required to respond to them. As a consequence, the Chinese government is orders of magnitude more responsive to local corruption or abuses of power than almost any western country.
Ah! So you consider that every single restriction a country applies makes it authoritarian. Yeah, I don’t think you understand authoritarianism, and in today’s context, that’s dangerous.
Whichever western shithole nation you’re from is complicit in more atrocities and crimes against humanity in the past decade than China has been in a fucking century, you’re either an incurable moron or a fed, embarassing either way
I’m aware, and yet, that is not what an authoritarian government is… But sure, continue to spread your ignorance and double down with dull insults, that will do a lot!
Not really to be honest. They’re an authoritarian regime, but they do a lot of social policies. It’s a weird mix but not a new one.
It is indeed a weird mix in China, but I had not expected this one. Its a law that could be useful everywhere, even though it is hard to prove.

This is not what China has done though…
Stop trying to launder this “run the government like a corporation” garbage

It absolutely is. Have a look at the definition of authoritarianism, China checks all the boxes.
So does the US at this point.
Not fully yet, but heading there head first, yep
Literally all governments are definitionally authoritarian, it’s a stupid criticism
Absolutely not! I encourage you to re-read the definition of authoritarianism and research a bit more about the governments all around the world!

But I won’t lose sleep over it!
