Chinese authorities have apparently resorted to broadcasting the sunrise on giant TVs in public places as it is now invisible to the naked eye thanks to some of the densest smog ever.
Beijing smog was so bad the government warned vulnerable citizens to stay indoors lest they be poisoned, and visibility was barely that of a murky pool:

i'm glad i didn't born nor i live in that country
I bet they are glad too.
I'm bad at English too, punk. But I'm even worst with Chinese.
What?
translation:
China does not want whiner and retards from internet to have been born there or live there.
yes they want sheeple born there, ones that would walk by a dying little girl or an elderly couple forced from there homes and not do or say a damn thing. I feel sorry for the Chinese people trying to make a difference only to have the majority remain ignorant and stupid.
You have no idea what you are talking about.
Scammers are smarter in China(and possibly rest of world) than in Amerika, for example.
Dying little girl? Call ambulance and her "parents" would stick to you forever and rob you of money.
Same with elderly couple; you have no idea whether they are actually unfortunate people or are planning something sinister.
Maybe if China was lucky enough to avoid war and occupation and perhaps gain tons of benefits from two world wars; things would be different.
Of course people living the easy life either in Amerika or one of Amerika's bitch countries would see things in black and white and call people ignorant/stupid...while they are the ones who are actually ignorant/stupid.
Ignorant/Stupid = taking every post on sankaku complex(well known to be anti-China) at face value.
There's a very good chance that the founders of Sancom are actually Chinese themselves (Probably living overseas)
They're known for self-hating and self-mockery.
This is a conspiracy.
(insert X-File theme music)
Unfortunately, most of these China posts are true. Looking for any meaning behind them is just as bad as prying into the retarded nature of some of the more outrageous situations you've mentioned.
Elderly are starving on the streets in all but the wealthiest welfare countries in the world.
As for the little girl who was run over, the car didn't notice it, more damning is the lack of a response, but probably people were afraid to get involved due to litigious consequences in the past.
Rapidly Industrializing tends to do that. London was called the "smog city"
But of course, this is not what the author is trying to lead people into thinking. Along with the rest of the Anti-China articles, is aimed to incite "China is bad" feeling. Coincidentally glorifying all of Japan's Otaku culture in other articles.
This is a testament to how much bullshit we are willing to put up with nowadays instead of overthrow horrendous infrastructure, by force if necessary. Congress too, for that matter. It really does bring up the question, when is enough enough in modern times?
Orgy porgy big brother is watching all
Why would Congress have a say, this is in China. Chinese government does not care as long as the money is rolling in, so they can build an army while claiming other nations airspace.
If you actually read the message, you would see I was speaking in terms of planetary issues. Congress is allowing the same things to be done here in different ways, and we call it normal.
2nd pic "It is everyone's responsibility to protect the atmosphere" said the Chinese Communist Party. As a Chinese I am finally realize that the CCP does has a sense of humor.
I'm not saying it's not really smoggy in Beijing, I'm not saying it's not dark, and I'm not saying modern China isn't polluted as hell, but I'm a bit curious as to what the camera settings were on the first two shots, specifically did they turn the exposure compensation to minus two (re: the darkest setting on most cameras) to accentuate the gloom. Also, what time of day was it? Just because there's a sunrise on the screen doesn't mean it's exactly sunrise, it could be just before dawn or just after dusk for all I know.
The third picture seems a little more representative as to what the smog is probably actually like, as it seems that the photographer didn't adjust the exposure and it's unambiguously daytime.
You can probably assume based on the darkness around, and extrapolating that that's kind of what it looks like on a rainy morning that it is in fact morning. The latter pictures are later in the day compared to them more than likely.
It's Sankaku complex.
Photo posted as "evidence" is usually just taken out of context.
The context is still there. Notice the supermarket logo at lower right corner of the LED billboard?
Which may make sense if the source for the story didn't come from the Daily Mail in the UK, and if it also didn't say the exactly same thing about the pollution in china.
Also, are you blind? Seriously. Go back to jerking off on pictures of Mao you morons.
Uh, during a sunrise it's always "ambiguously" daytime, because, the sun is just about rising.
You're indulging in wordplay. The author is curious as to what exact time is it.
You might argue about factual value of these photos, but you cannot argue with figures that prove air is toxic there and norms are crossed god knows how many times.
He's not arguing about that silly, he's talking about whether there's negative exposure compensation or not.
Stay focused.
He's arguing what it probably looks like. Did you even read his first sentence?
or maybe it's just dark as fk like many sunrises are before it goes over the horizon.
This is what rapid industrialization does...
After all, London was called the "smog city" after it went through too.
But of course, that's not what the author wants you to think. The article goes along with the other that is aimed to induce "China sucks" feeling, while glorifying Japanese Otaku culture, coincidentally.
That's all.
There you have it China has officially become a real life version of Blade runner.
+1
Everything is fake in China, even the Sun :D
at least for now it's not exploding
It defeats the China logic because the sun is in a constant state of exploding.
I can't even...
kekekekekek
can't say the same thing for that tv though.
The explosions are real enough.
It reminds me of the Warren Zevon song real or not.

Hey! Where are the tits in this article?! I came for the tits!
It's a Walmart sunrise!
Why is it like this in china?
It's because they don't have the same emissions laws that the rest of the world does. What laws they do have are weakly enforced.
They'll have to explain to future generations why it was good for the economy when they can't drink the water, can't breathe the air, can't eat wild foods, and can't farm the land.
If they can manage to abduct enough women to produce a next generation you mean.
It's because their leaders are commies.
hahha amerifag detected.
That's what they say. Any commie who is filthy rich, is not a real commie.
I'd say they're more like the pigs at the end of Animal Farm. They've figured out that wealth from capitalism is a good thing but at the same time, they retain the advantages and control of communism; at least for themselves.
Everyone is equal but some are more equal than others.
Any commie who's poor and hasn't given away all their money to charity is either a disingenuous or incompetent commie.
And communism is suppose to be a more caring philosophy too HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.....
This has nothing to do with that.. private corporate power can harm the environment in a large scale just as much or more. China's economic practices have shifted so much since the late 70s, you cant take them as a representation of a country running on Marxist doctrine anymore.
Soviet Russia was awful at environmentalism.
Every single country was awful at environmentalism until not so long ago (some still are).
Yet no one had a problem when the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, and the United States emitted tons of pollutants for a longer period of time during their economic development phase.
You are completely wrong. 1n 1952 London had a smog event that lead to thousands of deaths and a new era of pollution regulation. It was also caused by coal smoke and auto exhust. The first environmental regulations started in 1956, and the last bad smog event was in there was one more serious smog episode in 1962.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Smog for details.
But less overall.
Maybe because back then no one realized how destructive any of this shit really was, idiot.
Lol you really think they were as bad as this? Horry shit.
Welcome to Corporate China.
Not being able to drink the water is already true for much of urban China.
They won't have to explain anything as nothing will be left alive if they keep living in conditions like that
Because they burn toxic plastics and import foreign cars.
