We have the same thing. The real difference is that we are caught behind mountains of red tape that make new stuff really hard to roll out.

The skeptic in me says that Chinese want to plant this story in America and allowed it to be reported. Of course when the tide changes or they have tanks in the streets to quell protests, the Chinese government officials are right there ready to shut off the satellite signal. So always take news with a grain of skepticism. As Trump would say, I can never be 100% sure on anything.
News today almost has some elements the payola scandals of the music industry back in the 1950’s except that it is the corporation themselves that are receiving the money.

Dude! Settle down! Unfortunately for me, I have to visit China 3x a year for the last 4 years. You know how many drone taxis I have seen? ZERO!
fricking ZERO. Do they exist, sure. Are they in use for the general public? No!

Now this is a reasonable statement that I have no problem with. Grok 3 also agrees with it and offers some medical advice for SDVTIGER

Conclusion
There’s no verified evidence that China stole flying taxi technology from the U.S., though concerns persist due to China’s history of IP theft in aviation and other sectors. China’s eVTOL lead likely stems from aggressive domestic investment and faster regulation, not necessarily espionage. If someone denies this reality (e.g., insisting on theft without proof or rejecting China’s capabilities), it might reflect cognitive dissonance or, in rare cases, a condition like delusional disorder, but context and clinical evaluation are needed.

China use to steal alot of technology 20-30 years ago.
You don’t go to any trade or technology shows do you?
The Chinese send many of their people to these shows and STILL take photos and recordings of many products, equipment, etc.
They also steal IP electronically on a large scale. Your dishonesty doesn’t surprise me whether the Chinese developed the pilotless taxi or not.

well, since it someone super credible and the most neutral of neutral news teams like CBS, this totally can't be propaganda.

I think SDV as usual might be missing the point. This tech isn't that impressive or practical and isn't something they would need to "steal" from us.
It's probably worth noting that John Barron is over estimating the importance of this tech as well and making a bigger deal out of this than it is.

But seriously, where do you think china gets the vast majority of their technology? Educate yourself
If you think about this objectively you have to see that it will change if it hasnt already.
They put a much bigger emphasis on education than we do. Longer days. Longer weeks. Earlier and more aggressive starts on STEM. Less time spent on learning about their teachers' sexualities.
Just from a pure population standpoint they are bound to crank out more geniuses.
There was a time that our culture could counteract this just by its inherent encouragement and rewards for exceptionalism. And the freedom to pursue it. EQUITY is the name of the game now, my friend.

Do you believe that Tucker was there shilling for Russia ? Or was he there to interview a world leader unbiased without trying to set him up with a gotcha question? Like what good journalists used to do.

Tucker was definitely trying to make Russia look awesome

So you think China is taking pictures and videos of products then building them off of that?

Theft Allegations: As addressed previously, no evidence confirms China stole U.S. eVTOL technology. China’s progress leverages its EV and drone expertise, with 70–80% component overlap between eVTOLs and EVs. Independent development is supported by unique designs (e.g., EHang’s multi-rotor vs. Joby’s tilt-propeller).

I love these type of stories bc of how skillfully they only show one tiny sliver of China. Meanwhile I am currently in Zhengzhou posting from Surfshark and it looks like a bomb went off in Atlanta. There is so much poverty once you leave the "tier 1" cities it is unfathomable to the western mind

I am sure Russia isn't a paradise to live in. The reason that some Americans respect Russia is because after the fall of the USSR. Russia embraced their Orthodox Christianity and Culture. Putin does what he believes is best for Russia and doesn't embrace all the globohomo nonsense that is destroying tbe West.

Putin does what is best for himself. His people are a secondary consideration.
I don't know what you think "globohomo" nonsense is but most people that use that term are incredibly stupid. Putin is running Russia into the damn ground.

Something like this below seems like it could be propaganda because you are not sure if it is real or edited. The CBS video seemed authentic and had video of her inside when flying. So you think it was a fake video and CBS helped the Chinese government produce the propaganda?

That's ok. That is your right to think that, but are you going to deny that Western Goverments aren't teaching children to embrace homosexuality. Even going as far as influencing Children to change their pronouns and hide it from their parents? Florida had to pass laws to keep left leaning homsexual teachers from showing children pornography in elementary school. They do this for two reasons: Grooming future homosexuals and keeping them from having children. The Left believes that humans are bad for environment. That is why they love abortion and turning children Gay/infertile.
