I like it, but I would not call it "nature's nest". On the
contrary, I would say living like this is unnatural, as it is
unlikely to lead to competitive advantage in reproduction.
Also, Guilin is in Guangxi Province:

This fits our theory of southern superiority:

Do not fall for pro-Western engineering propaganda!

[quote]Construction safety nets are typically made from
high-density polyethylene (or HDPE) fibers.[/quote]

[quote]Industrial production of HDPE from ethylene happens
through either Ziegler-Natta polymerization or the Phillips
slurry process.[/quote]
Also styrofoam:
[quote]Security Secretary Chris Tang says they discovered
"exterior netting, tarpaulin and plastic sheeting that burned
far more intensely than permitted materials" as well as
styrofoam stuck to window frames.
Fire Services Director Andy Yeung said the styrofoam panels were
blocking ventilation gaps and were extremely flammable,
prompting police to investigate whether criminal activity was
involved.
He said the material would have caused the fire to spread more
quickly within the blocks themselves, spreading from flat to
flat through the corridors.[/quote]

[quote]In the 1940s, researchers, originally at Dow's Chemical
Physics Lab, led by Ray McIntire, found a way to make foamed
polystyrene. They rediscovered a method first used by Swedish
inventor Carl Georg Munters[/quote]
In other words, organic chemistry (ie. Western civilization) is
the problem, not bamboo.
Woke comments:
[quote]Bamboo is used as a cooking vessel. We stuff it with
sticky rice and put it in a open fire. It chars not burn[/quote]
[quote]I got skeptical when they say the bamboos caused the
fire. You can actually cook rice using the bamboo on an open
fire. There are plenty of videos about them.[/quote]
[quote]this is correct. Theyre trying to blame it on bamboo but
bamboo is actually fine... sad to see another one of hongkongs
iconic things taken away.. and by CCP which is even
worse[/quote]
[quote]Bamboo is hard to burn because of its innate water
content. Also smooth surface[/quote]
[quote]I don’t think I’ve ever seen bamboo actually burning
ever.[/quote]
[quote]Yeah Bamboo isn't that easy to set of fire, especially
compared to that net.[/quote]
[quote]I agree bamboo scaffolding probably wasn't the fuel
source. The green netting burnt from the bottom of the
scaffolding to the top.[/quote]
[quote]100% the netting..[/quote]
[quote]And styrofoam to cover the windows.[/quote]
[quote]Bamboo alone wasn't responsible as the petroleum based
plastics acted as accelerant[/quote]

How architecturally colonized is "New China"? Today we will look
at Gulangyu:
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulangyu
[quote]Gulangyu International Settlement
For a time, Gulangyu was the only international settlement on
Chinese soil apart from the International Settlement at
Shanghai.
Soon after Xiamen became a treaty port resulting from China's
loss in the First Opium War and the Treaty of Nanking in 1842,
foreign residents on the island established an informal
organization that became formally organized several decades
later
...
The consulates, churches, hospitals, schools, police stations,
etc. built by those foreign communities explain the
predominantly Victorian-era style architecture that can still be
seen throughout Gulangyu.
...
As a place of residence for Westerners during Xiamen's colonial
past, Gulangyu is famous for its architecture[/quote]

And we have present-day neocolonialist "whites" (with zero guilt
obviously) still making money off Gulangyu by YouTubing about
the buildings that their tribe built:

If I were in charge, all Western architecture here would be
demolished. But it's not just that in reality it has not been
demolished. It is worse:
[quote]Gulangyu Island was named the most beautiful district of
China by Chinese National Geography magazine.[19][/quote]
