They have now arrived on the world stage with pride. Congrats.

No, as a Chinese I will not give any credit to the CCP, and especially not the Xi Jinping led CPP. Do you know what happened in the cultural revolution? Do you know what happened on 1989 June 4th? Do you know there are literal slave labor camps in Myanmar and Cambodia set up by Chinese triads and protected by the CCP? Do you know they are shipping fentanyl and its precursors to the Mexican and Columbian cartels? CCP is nothing but the biggest and most powerful triad in China. They are a criminal organization that took power, that's all, and Chinese will never be free under their rule.

The following article is written by Ismail Bashmori, he is an Egyptian China watcher. The truth is that China is the greatest country on the face of the earth. It makes all other countries look insignificant and contemptible. It is the most brilliant, most industrious, most ambitious, most educated, meritocratic and technocratic, most modern, sophisticated, and civilised, and best-governed by far. It is the first non-white, non-Western country to reach this status since the 1600s. The determination of this country is indescribable. Supernatural. There is no force that can stop it from accomplishing anything it wants to do. 。 It doesn’t matter who we are. Egyptians, Syrians, Pakistanis, Indians, Africans, even Americans. Next to the Chinese, we are pathetic. We can’t do what they do. We would have a mountain, an Everest of changes to make, and we would whine and bicker and fail at every one of them. China’s story since the 1980s has been one of an almost divine metamorphosis. 。 Next to China the entire Western world from Alaska to New Zealand has stagnated. Next to China the entire developing world from Brazil to Madagascar has progressed only at a crawl. China is the mother of all gargantuan bullet trains. Every day it manages to create something new and astonishing. And unlike the United States, unlike the British Empire, unlike the French, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese or any other Western nation that had its turn at being a superpower in the past four centuries, China doesn’t need to run anybody over or take something from somebody else, to rise majestically. China is also standing up to the West all by herself. The West can’t believe their four-hundred-year-old global supremacy is being challenged. They hoped that the more China developed, the more it would submit to their influence, interests, and leadership. That didn’t happen. So now they will do anything possible, short of a nuclear war, to make China end. Their goal is to destroy this country. That’s why, although the United States has killed several million people and turned several regions of the earth into hellscapes. China is the worst fear of our planet’s Western masters. They want you to despise and dread a country that’s done nothing to you, that hasn’t invaded anyone, bombed or sanctioned anyone, that hasn’t overthrown any foreign government, or used its military on anything since 1979. China is the only major country in the nonwhite developing world, to stand up to the West. To look it in the eye when challenged or threatened. The Global South are simply Western puppets who submitted long ago. Even the most powerful ones. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, India. Above only part of the article, you can read the full article under the following link. www.dailyexpress.com.my/read/4459/west-can-t-believe-nor-accept-china-s-progress/?fbclid=IwAR3aJYSZC3rbUgM1NwHCO73XxnNzNkJPa9wrSsFp-4KMxTozuJiHBwLJDXU

[@SimonAshworthWood]

@@UKkenny Using prisons as a deterrence doesn’t work. The USA has a harsh system of punishing prisoners, but 80% of those prisoners commit more crimes after prison. In contrast, Norway focuses on REFORMING prisoners, so only 20% of prisoners there commit crimes after prison. That’s what works: using prisons to REFORM prisoners, making them into law-abiding citizens.

Exactly right, China consists of 57 ethnic groups but they are all Chinese living in harmony together despite of their differences in religion, culture, dialects.

As Hong Kong Chinese we could not figure out too how China has been able to arrive at the situation today. Billions of people have worked hard and fought for the nations to achieve the incredible. Hopefully China could continue to help many countries to grow and to be united instead of fighting and quarrelling as a way to survive. Everyone needs wisdom as well as hard work to live.

Everyone criticizing the CCP never understood the concept of “水能载舟，亦能覆舟“/the water(the mass) can carry the boat, it can also sink the boat”. There is a check and balance between the people and the government. To think the Chinese people are oppressed into accepting a dictatorship is western arrogance. The Chinese people chose to accept a centralized government which existence depends on its performance for the benefit of the people. The constitution grants Americans the protection of weapons against a tyrannical government. The chinese has sheer numbers, 1.4 billion.

To answer your question, the fact that the current government still exists is evidence of acceptance by the majority.

[@EadricRicmund]

“Safe” is relative by the way. I have been robbed in Guilin and Xi An before. The living condition and the actual experience in China is complicated. Not saying everything is all bad or all good. It is more in the grey area in between. In Chinese culture there is a concept of doing things for the greater good and the government (it’s kinda perversed to just mean the party now) is like your mother and you never show disrespect to your parents. For example “the great infrastructure” you see in China in tier 1 cities is at the cost of destroying history and culture. Many houses that were built in the dynastic periods or hubs of traditional Chinese culture was torn down to build that. Also pollution reduction, it is true air pollution had been reduced, but pollution had been increased in other areas. For example, the advent of bikeshare and EV taxis in China created a lot of fraudulent businesses that will establish these businesses to get the government subsidies and abandon the business causes landfills in China to be filled with brand new EVs and ebikes. Sure you can’t blame the government when private businesses want to scam money until you realize many of those businesses are actually owned by local politicians. Politicians in China often front run government policies to rake up business opportunities. Another example of this is during COVID the companies that produced the vaccines and COVID test kits in China are all owned by politicians. Also during lockdown period they temporarily implemented a policy of government subsidized food courts. Guess who suddenly established a bunch of new catering businesses right before that policy passed? Once again, local politicians. Also the thing regarding ethnic diversity in China. Yes China is ethnically diverse but very few of the people in the “minority culture centers” in China are actually the ethnicity they are performing as. They are all Han Chinese. It is on record on CCTV a Mongolian news anchor broke out in tears while still have to put up a smiling face when she had to report on a news that implied the government is Han washing Inner Mongolia and getting rid of the local Mongolian culture and heritage. China is complicated. There are three worlds that exists there. The world of people that can’t speak Chinese or don’t have full understanding of nuances in Chinese, the world of the middle class and higher/poorer people that directly benefited from Chinese image building policies, then finally there is the world of the people that live in poverty, is a racial minority, or have ancestry that are linked with people that were anti communist party. There is a reason why if you talk with local people of the older generation that lives in tier 1 cities, they don’t have a lot good to say about the government if they are allowed to speak anonymously. It seems like I listed out a lot of bad points but there are good points. The good point is, if you can afford to live in tier 1 cities and do not have morale/political opinions. Just living an everyday life where you just work, eat, and play. Don’t say anything that would accidentally insult the Chinese (which is difficult since there was a Chinese cosplayer that got arrested before for cosplaying, saying that wearing Japanese clothing in China is an insult to the Chinese people). The. China is a great place to live. It is safe. It is convenient. Average cost of living isn’t super high other than housing prices. Just don’t think about at what cost the country did to achieve it, because it is all for the greater good. Source: I lived in China for ten years in both Shanghai and Beijing. I am fluent in the language. My wife and her family is from the poorer areas of China and her parents directly benefited from one of the party’s “image building policies”.

As a Chinese born in the 90's, honestly, I did cared a lot about how the westerns' opinion on us many years ago, since there was indeed a gap between our country and the developed ones regarding both economic and so called human-right stuffs and also corruptions. However, as the living standards improved significantly day by day, which we can directly feel by comparing the food we eat, the cloth we wear, the cars running on the streets, our confidence in the national also grew. What really thorouhgly flipped my mind is when I went to the U.S for master degree and I had the chance to see the real western world. Been living in Boston for 2 years and L.A for another 2, no offence but it really left me a bad image. Homeless, drugs, gun-shot and robery is basicly what were on the news everyday, esepecially in downtown L.A my car windows got smashed twice:) The confliction between the real sistuation and what I've been told by the medias about the westerns got me thinking, it turned out there were a certain amount of the Chinese media were supported by the U.S funds or operated by those idividuals who reveive financial benefits from the U.S gov. The U.S. government has invested a lot of energy and money in directly or indirectly influencing the Chinese people's trust in the government and the country's future, making us believe that the Western system is superior. Yet, since the trade war or even long before that, the United States has tried every possible means but has not been able to curb China's development, which I believe says alot for it self that our country in on the right track. Even though we don’t have what the West calls universal suffrage, we do have the National People’s Congress and the Political Consultative Conference. This may not seem democratic enough to the outside world, but centralized decision-making improves efficiency and can largely cover the needs of the people and convey the voices of the grassroots. The lack of party competition and one-party dictatorship are also points that the West often attacks our system, but it is also because of this that the slow resolution of livelihood issues caused by conflicts of interest between parties will not occur in our country. At the same time, due to the continuity of policies, even if the president of the country changes, previous decisions can be implemented for a long time, so we can formulate one five-year plan after another, as well as a century plan, and successfully turn the plan into reality. Which Western country has the confidence and ability to make such a plan? There is a saying among Chinese students studying abroad: 越出国越爱国-meaning the more you go abroad, the more patriotic you become. I would also like to emphasize that our happy life today comes from the struggle and sacrifice of our ancestors, not from aggression against other countries. China's move to open a visa-free policy to foreign tourists from many countries in recent years also shows China's confidence. We welcome more international friends to come to China in person to see the real situation. There are both good and bad, but it is definitely not what you see in the media. Refuse to demonize or label, come and experience the culture, food, and history here, and get to know the warm, hospitable and peace-loving Chinese people. It will definitely be worth the trip.👋
