Before i waste my time answering, do you actually think china is dialing back authoritarian policy? Theyve built the most dystopian surveillance network in the world and they STILL arrest people for free expression.

But they have cameras! Cameras!

Traffic cameras are so dystopian, just ignore the 95+% government approval rate (according to harvard not the CPC), the whole process peoples democracy, the poverty alleviation, the corruption crackdowns. More cameras clearly means more dystopia.

Believe what? A Harvard study and my own experience being born and raised here? Ah well I suppose we're just subhuman "authoritarians" in your eyes for being proud of all that our government has done for us and seeing it listen and react to our demands.

Anti-traffic camera is just a view of privileged drivers, who think they got away with so much traffic infractions that they deserve to continue doing so, which makes the installation of speed camera so controversial everywhere.

I'll do us both a favor and not waste my time trying to respond to your stupidity.
