Very socialism much Marx wow
Sounds like a job for looBlock Origin or a PeeHole.
The advertisers demand to view any generated log.
It’s either that or you have to pay for the shit tickets. Program is called “feces or see fees.”
Feces or watch shit.
If only we had something shitty and easily spreadable at hand that could be applied to the screen on order to inconvenience the operator of the extortion device.
This is an improvement. A lot just don’t have any paper at all because they are afraid people will steal it and bring it home
But China is still communist!
This movement paves the way for their transition to commodeism.
Coming to you from the country where HOAs are funded by ad monitors installed in almost every elevator in commercial/residential high-rises, and public restrooms (even in the hospital!) never stock toilet paper because “people will steal it” (not joking)? Color me surprised…
Don’t forget no hand soap in the hospitals.
Don’t remind me that… I was taking a stool sample at a Chinese hospital just 2-3 months ago (allegedly the best hospital in China, btw); my Americanized brain was not able to handle… what I had to do to
The solution to putting ads in bathrooms is that they can be easily defaced.
Unless China is crazy enough to record their people in the bathroom, which I wouldn’t put past them.
, haha, soon to come: ‘ADS FOR DEATH AND TAXES.’
And you need a phone to view them. It would be quite shitty if you don’t have one, or the battery just decided to die on you.
Good thing I always have my multi-tool with me.
Poop knife?
Poop knifes are the shit.
Tell ya what. You’re about to get half of my handkerchief and we’ll call it even.
Western propaganda
You’ve always had to pay for TP in China. Free toilet paper in public restrooms is exceedingly rare. Same with hand soap. So honestly this is an improvement. The west got this one right I’m afraid.
How? I mean, is there a paper-machine in every stall or do you buy a roll before you go? It sounds so absurd, but definitely something to know before visiting China, which still is on my bucket-list
Get a new bucket list. Unless that bucket it the poo-paper bucket next to poo hole in the ground.
As to how either have money or bring your own TP.
Nah it stays on the list, China is awesome. But those tiny things are very good to know before going there 😁
No, china sucks. I lived there.
Yes you literally need to bring wipes around with you. Things are slowly changing but for a long time there was no TP in any bathroom stall outside of fancy hotels and maybe high end restaurants.
Weird. But…why? Just “because” or theft? I’d bet that resulted in many silly situations with foreigners visiting 😁 And thanks for the info!
I’ve been to China many times, and this is arguably the least offensive TP situation.
So late stage communism is the same as late stage capitalism. Toilet paper for me but not for thee.
It’s just capitalism.
Authoritarian capitalism. Funny how much Maga and Trump bash China but want America to become like it.
When will people learn that any advertising that occurs during extortion like this is the focal point of hate and fear?
This is like anti-advertising.
They count on you recognising the brand name and eventually forgetting why.
farts
“Mmm, I should buy some Nikes”It’s not “they count”, it’s a working conversion. Which is why it’s being stuffed everywhere.
Recognition absolutely trumps everything. You’ll be more suspicious of a noname good thing looking good and cheap than of recognizable bad thing looking bad and expensive.
Wouldn’t people use tissues and cause pipe blockage in the long run?
My sweet summer child. Oh how green you are. You put the poopy paper in the poopy paper bucket next to the hole in the floor that you squat over and pray you hit the hole. You also put the poopy paper in the poopy paper bucket next to your toilet at home.
You’ve always paid for TP in China. At least now there’s a way to get it for free. I see this as an improvement.
Yeah i came to say this. There’s no toilet paper in most of China. Some fancier shops may have it but most don’t. Even McDonald’s in China doesn’t have toilet paper most of the time.
On one hand, the government can absolutely afford to piss money away on stolen toilet rolls or whatever. On the other hand, this locking-down only happened because some people couldn’t be trusted and did the stealing in the first place. If everyone had respect for public amenities this likely wouldn’t have happened
It’s the old people. They still remember famine and live like they’re going to go without any day now. Honestly how randomly china manages stuff the old people are probably right.
