      To be 100 percent fair, tap water in China has shown a concerning level of trace amounts of heavy metals (Not the Led Zeppelin kind, unfortunately) and is often slightly worse than in the U.S., in China its more understandable given that the nation is still a developing country containing over 16 percent of humanity and installing and cleaning new state of the art pipes and irrigating water and purifying minerals from water is extremely complex and tedious work, the Chinese government at least has greatly improved water treatment over the past few decades, continues to do so, has a very strong drive to provide for its people, and has spent billions of dollars introducing tap water to Tibet, which previously didn’t have running water until recently.

      Where as the U.S. if anything probably wants to get rid of tap water because “its communist!”

      If a bourgeoise pisses in the mouth of a petit bourgeois the proles may catch a few drops.

      This isn’t bad, the water in the worst places in the US is almost completely brown or black. That’s how saturated with heavy metals it is.

      Guess what areas that happens to.

    They would have been executed within days of the issue being discovered probably. This would’ve been resolved within weeks.
