Senior moments

I thought this Taipei crash video was a game, or the movie based on the game, not for very long, but few a few split seconds I believed it because I have never seen anything like it. Sneaky whisper in the back of my mind asking what the Chinese are up to? Still building the Great Wall after what? 2000 years now they're still worried about barbarians. Not to suggest that China has the technical know how to make MH370 vanish and then cause another trans Asia sea crash and now this, but CCTV is much more cleverer than its Russian counterpart, and the West mews. The West wants to make money in China, so what is a few hundred thousand lives or more, who cares about Party indoctrination? These are all small things, but these small things are looming large. Whether authoritarian or our precious free society, we're losing control of the mechanized complexities we think we have mastered. I really ought to give my fucking notice and head to Texas, even if I'm dead in a week.
