I grew up in a house in rural Indiana by a traffic light. Livestock trucks would have to stop all the time, and within that short amount of time, the smell would become unbearable.

Looks a LOT nicer than the concentration camps they've been putting Uyghur minorities in for "re-education" (aka torture). China gonna China.
