CHILD WARNING Child Warning [Child Warning] The Death of Wang Yue

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Wang_Yue

Wang Yue (Chinese: 王悦; pinyin: Wáng Yuè), also known as "Little Yue Yue" (Chinese: 小悅悅), was a two-year-old Chinese girl who was run over by two vehicles on the afternoon of 13 October 2011 in a narrow road in Foshan, Guangdong. As she lay bleeding and unconscious on the road for more than seven minutes, at least 18 passers-by skirted around her body, ignoring her.[1] She was eventually helped by a female rubbish scavenger and sent to a hospital for treatment, but succumbed to her injuries and died eight days later. The closed-circuit television recording of the incident was uploaded onto the Internet, and quickly stirred widespread reaction in China and overseas.

Many commentators believed this to be indicative of the moral decline in contemporary Chinese society.[2] However, other commentators credited the high-profile Peng Yu incident in 2006,[3] in which someone who helped an injured accident victim was accused of having injured the victim himself and was forced to pay for the victim's medical bill, as having caused people to fear getting in trouble for helping in Wang's case.[4][1] Several regional Good Samaritan laws were passed following the incident and in 2017 a new national Good Samaritan law came into force to prevent such situations through the country.

Chinese government is FUCKED.

Like the US is pretty not great, but a government that actively incentives people to not give a shit about each other because it could have massive ramifications on them for being a good/morally sane person is disgusting. At least in the US I feel like I have a 50/50 chance of someone maybe helping out in a situation if someone needs it, though there's still the 50% chance that they just pull out their phone and upload you dying to TikTok.

The US is the most charitable nation in the world. People stop to help random animals on the side of the road. Almost anyone would stop if they saw a child. Obviously there are some shit areas and definitely some inner city cesspools, but outside of that, it's an extremely friendly country.
