What do they have?
No, I’m really asking, because I was busy smelling our own farts for the last forty years and have no idea.
Sydney Sweeney feels particularly weird to include in this. Like Apple as a tech corpo... I guess?? Sports... okay... but then a fucking actress as a point in being better than China???
And even then it's all commodity and entertainment. China's future is poverty alleviation, education and innovation. So if you care only for circus and bread then I guess China is not the future for you?
I'll be honest, I had no idea who Sydney Sweeney even was until today.
I've only ever heard her name in weird contexts like this headline.
Come to USA! We have:
Lmao who cares about sidney Sweeny? She's hot sure but what else? Like who fucking cares about some random hot b grade actor?
Bro needs to get his top 3 straight.
For some reason (actually two large, perky reasons), the right holds Sydney Sweeney up as a sort of mascot, a shining example of what "the right kind of woman" looks like
She's one of them, that's also why
Yeah, tbh anytime someone brings up Sydney Sweeney, fucking dogwhistle to me
We have shitty unrepairable phones and computers with patronising interfaces, sports most people can't afford to attend because the tickets get scalped, and someone who openly brags about having blue eyes (she promises it's not in that way though). China is quaking I'm sure.
If the Chinese have nothing, why is the US afraid?
Does this guy think they don't have hot women in China?
That definitely seems to be what the headline is implying.
Considering the iPhones are made in China and sports equipment is made in Central America and Southeast Asia, I'm gonna need to see Ms. Sweeney's birth certificate
Even if he wanted to die on this hill, he could have easily chosen 3 much better options lmao.
Staring with any of these 3 in a measuring contest means America is already cooked.
The US used to have Scarletts Johansons, now they can afford is Sydneys Sweeneys
The future is Mandarbmax. I have $4.35 cash, little bit of string, and old left shoe
