I've read the bible. The problem is, the bible is all you've read. Every generation says theirs is the end times. Every single god damn one. How arrogant can you possibly be, to believe that in the 1000's of years, that YOU just happen to be born in the exact generation, that is finally right? Not your parents or grand parents or great grand parents. Just YOU. Of all the times to be born, YOU just happen to be born in the one that is at end times. And when this passes, your kids ( shudders at the thought....) will say the same thing when some global event happens.

Oh ye, in Shenzhen cash does not exist. Everything is paid for using QR codes (barcode you scan with your phone that debits an account), so the gov can see everything you buy. That's infinitely beneficial to know exactly what people are buying, and when.

It's one step farther than what Mark Zuckerburg is doing / is capable of. He speaks fluent Chinese. He may as well be a member of CCP based on his invasive business ethics. He pushes the limits, US calls him out, he says "I'm sorry I didn't know any better!", waits a few months, then pushes the limits again.

Facebook is spying on everything. Firefox just recently released an addon that will block all facebook trackers on any website you visit.

I recently figured out how Pirateship is free (free to use shipping label website) - they're partnered with facebook to collect data on all the stuff people sell. That data is worth much more than offering a free to use website.
