Technically to this day the Chinese government in Taiwan still claims to the Mainland. This is not a conflict between independent nations but a civil war that is not finished.

I don't know enough about what really took place when the Nationists "fled‘ to Taiwan, but it was factual they took a massive amount of treasures, including antiques and money there...amongst them many were notorious warlords and corrupted officials. The China they left behind was so barren and in dire poverty for many, many years. My mother, who was living in Hong Kong, then sent food and fabrics for clothing to her relatives in Mainland China much into the 70s. My first visit to Shezhen China was 1980, and I needed to buy an exchange voucher for a cup of coffee. Our relative, who was actually the principal of a local high school, offered one of their 3 home raised chickens for our dinner... I was so saddened by that. I left 100 USD with them, and apparently, they divided among 20 families with 5.00 each. And these were all happening only 3 or 4 decades ago.

Taiwan is a _de facto_ independent nation, with its own government, military, economy, and culture, and has been for decades. Anyone who says otherwise is a CCP propagandist. How it happened, and whether it's a good or bad thing, is secondary. It is what it is.

He’s obviously an American technocrat, but it’s hardly unfair to frame what is happening in China exactly as he has done here. It’s pretty obvious China is working towards an increasingly powerful surveillance state. All the geopolitical points he made were mostly just factual statements about China’s economic war with Western countries. He didn’t really go into moralizing one side or the other. You can really only make a moral judgement by disagreeing with their internal political behavior, then extrapolating that out to the geopolitical situation. This video was as balanced as it could be coming from, as you mention, a person who is clearly aligned with Western elite values. He’s not exactly hiding from that.

Xi was a good leader overall for China in this era of China's rise after Deng and Mao. After 150 years of chaos created by the British, Mao united China, which was impoverished by the Opium trade and made 1/3 of the population on the drug even though it was illegal in both countries. That is why Mao is still respected in China, even though he is the worst manager of the country in the ideology and projects he pushed. As ordinary folks were concerned, Deng was the hero of modern China; he fought conservative politicians to free China from poverty. Adopted capitalism from the West with Chinese Confucianism, learned from Lee (Singapore Prime Minister) after visiting Singapore, Deng sent 22,000 students to Singapore and copied their system. Whatever merit or complaint, China has a Singaporean system to begin with. Lee asked if the people wanted to be well off, rich, or free (American version). We all know what every average Asian prefers. Money. Xi was the third significant leader of China after 1949, not to minimize the due credit of his predecessors. They all did well on what they inherited. Got in the WTO and lay low to build the country. By the way, laying low and being humble has been Confucianism for over 2000 years. If you think it was a communist idea, you don't know China. Being American, we do the opposite: self-promotion, exaggerated resume, fake it until you make it. That works in America, not China. Two viewpoints of Xi from outside China: Western view vs. Global South view. In China, over 80% approval rating of the government. In 30 years, people making $2 to $4000 a month. It's a modern miracle according to human progress. But it is not really; China was the #1 GDP a few years before 1900 when the US surpassed China. Xi reminds the people that people can do better, clean up corruption, work hard, and be ready to suffer with honor when hardship descends upon them. Everyone has a role in the society if they want a strong civilization. Chinese people think of themself as a culture, not a State or a Party. I am tired of Western people calling the Chinese government CCP as it is not a real government. The government of 1.4 billion people, 17% of the world population, chose it. When Pelosi visited Taiwan, the Chinese net citizen voice in WeChat to shoot down her plane. It's good that Xi did not listen to that idea. As this video shows, the Chinese can voice their opinion, which we call freedom of speech or the press in the West. They usually get results faster than American politicians can. Chinese are proud of their DNA lineage. All Asian children are learning to respect their ancestry, which provides their rich heritage. Individuals have all their freedom as long as it doesn't damage the greater good of the society in the short or long term for the civilization. The people are free to voice their opinions, and the governments listen and make changes rapidly if that makes common sense. As long as the opinion does not involve overthrowing the government. All Chinese citizens understand they do not want to live in chaos like their parents. That is the spirit of all Asian countries, including S. Korea, Japan and Singapore. With this style of political system, any Asian country can rise in 40 years, no matter how badly it started. Japan did it before WWII and again after. So did all the Asian Tiger countries, big or small. It has become a formular. Yes, democracy is better if the government is like the US, inherits a vast resourceful land, and has 150 years of development time.

I don't agree with some of your opinions. I think Mao is the best, Xi is the second best, of course, no one can surpass Mao. Mao has amazing talent in military and politics, he faced many more and much tougher difficulties both within the nation and international environment than any other leaders. Now more Chinese people come to look back at cultural revolution and understand Mao's choice. Xi is the second leader who really does something to overcome class differentiation. Although Xi and his father were also persecuted in CR, Xi still thinks highly of Mao, rare lucid. As a Chinese, I know how Mao is treated in our public textbooks and medias before, but things changed especially after 2016. Xi really does something to restore Mao's status. Of course no one is perfect, so is Xi, I don't like some of our present policies either, but I still have to say Xi is great, all he has done to poverty alleviation is worthy of respect, which definitely ruin come groups' benefits including most Chinese middle-class and cause opposition, but this is communism, some people must sacrifice for overall and equal development.

I think there is a clear difference to how the "global south" may view the Arab Spring and how John sees it. At its onset, it seemed promising, and there was a possibility that an end to dictatorships in the "Arab World" would yield some positive outcomes. But as time has passed since then, things have not gotten better. The democratic uprisings had real democratic elements. It is heartbreaking, and one story that was particularly hopeful was the outcome for Tunisia, where the Arab Spring started. But think of it this way: the "west" promised democracy would lead to a better government and better society, and with that bond, the people organized the Arab Spring in the hopes that would happen, and they would cash in the cheque they signed when they protested for democracy, that being, a stable democracy. However, did that occur? Did these societies create stable democracies after the Arab Spring? Well, history shows different evidence confronting the hypothesis that: "democratic uprising would lead to stable governments''. There came the Libyan Civil War, the Syrian Civil War, the rise of ISIL, and the current refugee crisis plaguing Europe. Foreign governments came in to fund different groups in these countries to engage in proxy wars. This is painfully similar to the Warlord Era in China prior to the creation of the Nationalist government, which both the CCP and KMT fought together to create. (As a side note, after which the Nationalists conducted a brutal purge of communists and their sympathizers, and promising a period of “tutelage” before granting voting rights, the Nationalists took it upon themselves to rule unabated for 10 years, holding no elections, and creating a brutal police state with some inspiration from Germany) Now that being said, the democratic uprisings that occurred after the Soviet Union collapsed did set a precedent that some success can be had after a democratic uprising. But as a country looking to see what choices to make to build a better society, it is reasonable to make sure to investigate all examples of modern democratic uprisings and see if the evidence holds up to the promises. Additionally, one pays extra attention to countries with similar characteristics to one's home country. So does it make sense that the "global south" have some apprehension towards spontaneous revolt on the pretense of achieving a democracy? There were definite problems of corruption, disenfranchisement, and economic stagnation that are legitimate concerns to protest about. But, bringing down a government without a clear plan of what will come after isn't a good answer to those concerns as time has proven. Yet to someone from the global south, when we see someone use the Arab Spring as a success story and a legitimate argument against the response of the CCP, this seems quite peculiar, because that only holds up if everything that happened after the Arab Spring *never happened*. And what else has happened? In Pakistan, the candidate who has clear democratic legitimacy, Imran Khan, has been repressed severely by the incumbent government. When he was in power, he increased the social safety net, he promoted renewable energy transition, and reforestation initiatives. Yet due to his engagement with China he became excoriated by the west. Especially after he disclosed to the public that the US sent a diplomatic cable urging for the removal of Imran Khan in a coup. And, based on how he violated "state secret legislation", he was ousted from the government with a no confidence vote. This is public knowledge, this is on global news, this wasn't fabricated by fake news bots. Now, as people of the global south, it is no longer impossible to have an eye on world affairs. It is possible to have all the means and access to technology to see things happen from both sides and gather information from as many sources as one can. So that being said, isn’t it foolish to not expect someone in the global south to understand that news from China or Russia are heavily curated for a specific purpose. It is also perceivable that western news sources and opinions have spin as well. And, though it is not as stifled as in China or Russia, it would be ahistorical to believe journalism in the US does not have government interference in the way it operates. There are multiple books including academic sources investigating the role the CIA can play in influencing public opinion, sources include “Safe for Democracy “by John Prados and the book “Backfire: A History of How American Culture Led Us into Vietnam and Made Us Fight the Way We Did” by Loren Baritz. Again, this is public knowledge, published by people who were at one time part of the CIA. One can argue that these operations happened in the past, back in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. But to grapple with that idea sincerely, what *exactly* is preventing their clandestine projects from happening today. There are receipts that the CIA and FBI have influenced Twitter, there are employees of these companies that were once CIA agents including Facebook along with Twitter. So, to the jury of nations and peoples not entirely within the sphere of the West or Russia and China, what sorts of conclusions sounds and concerns reasonable when considering the following: 1. How far the Arab Spring is a success story, which includes asking: a. Is any decision created in an online public forum owned by a foreign private company reasonably legitimate and have and have some absolute right to be pursued politically with no checks and balances b. If these companies operated in good faith in the relevant countries regardless of how far there are any checks and balances assuring influence by the CIA or FBI is not present without oversight c. Understanding if the success stories of democratic uprisings in post Soviet countries operated similarly to the Arab Spring, and what role, if any, did social media play a part similarly in the Arab Spring and the post Soviet democratization process in 1991 2. Witnessing what is happening in Pakistan and the narrative responses to it from multiple media sources 3. Figuring out if the CCP response is unreasonable in regards to the idea of any decision created in a public forum on Facebook or Twitter are legitimate and have a right to be pursued politically, to create public policy this way, and to make choices including bringing down the government There can be genuine fears regarding the rise of China or XJP’s leadership style just as there are genuine fears regarding the foreign causes of the suffering of people in the global south, regardless of the actions of their own governments, that have no real guarantee would not occur again, or is even being addressed as having happened at all. There wasn’t any real acknowledgement of the harms of fake news in the US until their country became victims to it.

China Before the Invasion of the Eight-Power Allied Forces In the 1830s, Britain illegally exported opium to China in large quantities, bringing severe damage to China in political, economic social and other aspects. The Qing Government finally made a resolute decision and dispatched Lin Zexu, Governor-General of Hubei and Hunan, to ban opium smoking and the opium trade in Guangdong. In 1840, Britain launched an undeclared war on China. Cities and towns along Chinese coast and the Yangtze River, such as Zhoushan, Ningbo, Wusong and Zhejiang, were successively attacked by British warships. In August 1842, the Qing Government was forced to sign the Sino-British Treaty of Nanking, the first unequal Treaty in modern Chinese history. During the following 60 years, the Qing Government opened wide its doors to the outside world. Unequal treaties followed one after another, including the Treaty of Wanghea with the United States, the Treaty of Whampoa with France, the Treaty of Aigun with Russia and the Treaty of Shimonoseki with Japan. The treaties contained the humiliating and sovereignty-forfeiting articles on the cession of territory, the payment of indemnities, stationing of foreign garrisons, free missionary activities and open opium trading. The colonialist powers took control of China's Customs administration and rights for tariff agreements. They enjoyed consular jurisdiction and the power to issue bank notes, seizing China's sovereignty by piecemeal encroachment or wholesale annexation. The Chinese people hated the unequal treaties, and when the Boxers rose in rebellion, they declared: "We resent the treaties most because they wreck the country and ruin the people. Officials in subordinate positions follow the example set by their superiors, and the people cannot have their injustice redressed." They did shows like this about Iraqi before they destroyed it. One million Iraqi's were masacared, half a million children. Right! on to the next one. And we in the West are told Russia and China are evil.

Good video. On the issue of taiwan, i felt that most non culturally chinese content creator ignored an aspect so fundamental to the chinese it baffles me why it wasnt discussed adequately. The first sentence of the chinese classics "romance of the three kingsom" informs that this need for reunification after a division is built into the cultural psyche. There is no objective need for reunification, most cultures on the world didnt develop this cultural traot, but for the chinese its something that has been done more than a dozen times for the past 2 millenia. Call it cultural propaganda, inculcation by historical narrative, call it whatever you want, but everytime a dynasty nears its end, china breaks apart, sometimes into a few pieces, sometimes into half a dozen pieces, but all of them xlaim to be rightful successor to the china before, and every up and coming dynasty takes it onto themselves to reunify previous pieces, and often, the new dynastt is not proclaimed until reunification is complete.

42:20 Taiwan was never independent nor did it ever declare independence. It's a province held by a rebel faction that lost a civil war where no peace treaty was signed. It doesn't even declare itself as a separate country from China. It is a part of China under international law and not an independent country. This is recognized by the UN, NATO, US, and even itself. The only reason it hasn't formally reunited with the mainland is because the US neocons need it to operate as an unsinkable aircraft carrier against China and have subverted the elites there to do the US's bidding.

@mrfrost6337 19 күн бұрын

It lost a civil war but it wasn't a rebel faction. It was originally the government of what is known as China today but got toppled by the CCP. Yes it has never declared itself as an independent country. But that's because it sees itself as the rightful government of both Taiwan and mainland China. Your use of the phrase "hasn't formally reunited" really betrays your point doesn't it. You are implying that Taiwan is not "formally" a part of China at the moment. Don't think that is in line with the official narrative of the Chinese government - just saying.

The rules are respect love one another, and your parents being your leaders in this analogy and life will be fantastic if you disrespect either you’re gonna get punished it’s not gonna be great and it’ll be Swift but understand that your parents love you too, but they have to think about the rest of the children in the family and ensure that they are well taken care of you might not agree with me, but that is the reality of that situation in Western culture. By the time you hit 16 you need to start thinking about your independence and standing on your own 2 feet and making your own name for yourself neither one is more right than the other.

Today china is the least corrupted in all china history. Corruption in Singapore is almost 0 , because government are paid very well. From teacher to doctors , police to fireman are all paid well compaing whole world. government officials pay cheque is so high, no one can bride them with money. However, Singapore still has corruption , not in the form of money, but in favors suchs as business, promotions ,personal favors. For example, company A - hey, Singapore, give me this project and we will guarantee you're son and daughter graduate from Harvard. Or company B - hey south africa, give me this airport project, we will give you a free city hall.

I have liked and subscribed and will view other of your productions... Keep the good work going! You also are putting to shame mass media TV for what they could do, but don't....

Well yeah it is a YT video for a quick and digestible information on X subject. Up to us to dive deeper into said topics. I do kind of wish he would go back into a particular popular or important topic and dive deeper. His editing and presentation are making other information YT channels subpar haha! Johnny Harris is okay. Yet I find his videos so liberal that it is biased. He doesn't lie - he just nit picks information and phrases the information he does give in a certain way. Type of person to report a woman getting beat up by her husband without talking about the emotional abuse she put their kids and him through after killing their dog.

This is like, the moral of the story is to get rid of corruption. Political system doesnt matter. Democracy or not. Improvements in quality of living from removing corruption far outweighs the lack of choices in voting.

@malourocha9211 Жыл бұрын

Lol, coming from a person with the ability to vote, no it doesn’t, the ability to vote helps secure you from corruption. If xi is corrupt, how do you get rid of him? Oh wait, you can’t, he literally changed it so he can be ruler for life. Sounds pretty corrupt to me

@busymangaming1975 Жыл бұрын

@@malourocha9211 I like being able to vote and criticise my government too. Saying that, its also truth that despite free speech being protected in democratic laws, many democratic governments in the world are run without protecting civilians' human rights and only elites are protected. Given the choice between complete elimination of corruption in a non democratic system and complete protection of human rights in a democratic system, I feel either is fine. I do feel that a good starting point is a democratic political system to achieve that. But if China can get to zero corruption and achieve good living standard for everyone, even without a democracy, I think its still worth applauding.
