    It seems like whenever people trainpost about Chinese high speed rail it gets really good reception on Western social media

    But how much of that is because high speed rail is seen as just another “treat”?

      Fuck it lol I’ll take it, if public transit gets widespread support because people can frame it as treats, it is better than not having public transit and the current paradigm of “I’d rather sit in traffic for 4 hours a day than sit next to the poors”.
