A court in China has sentenced a man to death for killing 35 people last month by driving into a crowd, in an attack that raised national concern about mass killings.

Fan Weiqiu was venting his anger because he was unhappy with his divorce settlement, the court in the southern city of Zhuhai said in handing down the sentence on Friday. The victims were exercising at a sports centre at the time of the attack. Fan pleaded guilty to endangering public safety by dangerous means, a court statement said.

    I think we’ve found a paid shill.

    They can’t give up no matter what and will throw anything at the wall to make it seem like they came out on top.

    Looks like he’s desperate because he’s probably compensated based on how well he can convince people on china’s greatness.

    Isn’t that right?

      By implying that China has enough excess wealth to be paying people to keep the mystery of their 35 number by shitposting on an instance with 500 people you’re doing more to make them seem rich and powerful

      Yes I’m paid to cover up the magic number thirty five that those sneaky Chinese use to hide numbers. You caught me you dastardly western intelligentsia.
