Why should one call the one-party-system in China not a democracy? I call it a democracy. It is a different system than in so called western democracies. But people do have a vote. They vote on the ground level, where they really know the candidates personally. They have lots of choices, beginning with the choice to be a party member or not. In the USA people can choose between pest & cholera, one political dynasty or the other, one monster sucking their blood vital or the other. The role model for what we call democracy in the west was Athens en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athenian_democracy "Participation was far from open to all residents, but was instead limited to adult, male citizens (i.e., not a foreign resident, regardless of how many generations of the family had lived in the city, nor a slave, nor a woman), who 'were probably no more than 30 percent of the total adult population' " What we have in western countries is a *democracy-simulation.* "If elections could change anything, they would be forbidden."

I've been trying so hard to let my foreign colleagues to understand the truth by showing them the videos like you have provided. Sadly, they only label me "pro-China" and think I'm crazy to think "China is innocent" while I should view myself as a "Taiwanese" not a Chinese. To me, whether you are from Taiwan or Mainland, WE ARE ALL CHINESE! I sometimes feel very discouraged and even thought of giving up at some points. "What's the point?!" "They will never believe what I say..." Does anyone have any efficient tips when it comes to clarifying these foreigners' misconceptions?

[@greyfox8517]

Another reason why Eva Dou’s article (and her follow up tweets arguing that people cannot now eat to their heart’s content) is so misleading, is because it completely ignores cultural practice in China. When Chinese dine out with guests, it is common for the host to over order by 50% or more, because it would be deeply embarrassing to have your guests leave the meal still hungry. As guests, it is polite for you to leave some leftovers on the table, as a signal to your host that you are not hungry anymore. Both these forces result in a lot of unnecessary food waste. Hence, this anti-food waste campaign gives both host and guests a good reason to be careful with the amounts ordered and to finish the food that has been ordered. It is a totally logical and environmentally friendly policy, that makes sense to 99% of Chinese, who understands the context of such a policy. This is the real shame, that a journalist with a Chinese sounding name, failed to or deliberately didn’t put the policy in the correct context, but instead re-contextualized it in a negative light through a Western lens, which totally misrepresented the situation.

Why agonise over what Eva says. She's just dumb. China should just do what it has and wants to do.

Food and water saving is regarded as part of rich traditional culture, like austerity

I can testify that people form certain provinces in China practise leaving food behind as a symbol of their wealth. The wealthier you are the more food to be left behind. The government intervention is a correct one at time the world has areas of food shortage.

[@greyfox8517]

sam watt Totally agree, and I forgot to mention that. Excessive food orders can be regarded as a show of wealth, so hopefully this new campaign will puncture that particular perception and make it “uncool”, which in turn leads to less waste. Also, global food shortage was always driven by uneven distribution, not insufficient output, because total global caloric output is sufficient to feed everyone, but most of it is concentrated in the developed world, so there’s food waste in developed countries but hungry people in poorer countries. COVID-19 exacerbates this distribution problem. China’s domestic distribution channels are excellent, so as long as they can import the necessary food, it will be available where needed within China. There are currently no import issues, so this idea that China’s got a food shortage problem is total BS.

@Albert Moore Why should _People's Republic of China_ 🇨🇳 be annexed by a non-communist _Republic of China_ 🇹🇼? The Kuomintang were the ones who lost the mainland to the Communist Party of China and had to flee to Formosa (Taiwan). During the Chinese Civil War, the communists were at a *severe disadvantage;* they were mostly poorly trained peasants, their weapons were lousy, and they had far fewer numbers (only 50 communist members in 1921) over the Kuomintang. The KMT on the other hand, had massive wealth (they taxed the peasants heavily) they had superior weapons, better training, and far superior numbers over the the communists. Securing victory against the communists should have been a piece of cake for the KMT. Yet the communists survived all KMT attempts to wipe them out, employing strategies like "Long March" (长征) and despite KMT's initial advantages, the KMT still lost the mainland to communists and had to flee to Formosa (Taiwan). This demonstrates KMT's *gross incompetence* in their right to rule the mainland.

I'm Chinese that grew up in the West.

It wasn't until university where I needed to do some research on China for an assignment that I received contradictory facts. Even then, the thought was so ingrained into me that I ignored anything positive about China. I went to China, for the first time, in 2016 as one of my relatives passed away. I thought I was going to spend a month in a crappy country, but I had the best time of life in China and the experienced really changed my view. I started to do more research and explore Chinse culture and history. Although China still have many problems, I am proud of China's growth and progress. I am optimistic that China will continue to solve its problems and grow, and I am proud to be Chinese.

This Cyrus, was nothing short of brilliant! After extensively reading up on China by people like Robert L. Kuhn, Martin Jacques, Zhang Weiwei, Xi Jinping and many others, it becomes very clear that the Chinese government, the CPC, and the Chinese people are totally future oriented, but at the same time seek to build on the best solutions from the past. As the saying goes, China is aiming at 2050 and beyond, USA is looking back to 1950 and before. The US Americans seem oblivious on how FDR was able to bring USA forward again during the great depression by spending big on infrastructure and seeing to that the unemployed found work. Trump and the modern US governments are the exact opposite, seeing to that as many as possible end up in total poverty with resulting social unrest, and trying to bully all other countries. Will be interesting to see what will happen, and it is doubtful Biden is a new FDR. More likely he will be a continuation of Trump in most areas.

I can’t agree with you more. Climate change and rejoining the Paris Agreement would be the easiest of all the issues for Biden to tackle. One of Trump’s most successful political accomplishments is labeling China as the biggest threat.

This, along with the other domestic problems you mentioned, would pose great challenges for Biden and his administration as Trumpism has become a political culture that would likely to continue its influence.

By and large, China’s Xinjiang policies are sound. They are primarily driven by the impetus to avoid the kinda devastating “war on terror” seen in Pakistan’s border region with Afghanistan. Neither is China prepared to let Xinjiang slip into another Kashmir, or Chechnya. www.rbth.com/travel/328614-7-things-to-know-prior-to-coming-to-chechnya Ultimately, China is responsible for peace and development on its own territory. Western powers cannot care less about fostering inclusive trade relations built on the principles of equality and mutual respect. Instead, they see it their national interest, to undermine infrastructure development in this geostrategic region, seizing every opportunity to attack legitimate infrastructure projects that improve people’s living standards under the Belt and Road Initiative. Arguably, they have the least legitimacy to preach about the virtues of religious freedom, given their blatant human rights abuses committed under decades of genocidal war on terror. 😱 When bitter medicine is taken to cure a chronic illness, it doesn’t take a genius to expect at least some side effects. Only when China manages to secure the Silk Road with amiable partnering states will Asia truly flourish, and be liberated from the fetters of aggressive colonial interventionist campaigns and backward tribal mentality. Wise Muslim scholars understood that it was no coincidence, that the golden age of the predominantly Buddhist-Taoist-Confucian Tang dynasty had a symbiotic empowering effect on the historic rise of Islam, through boosting Silk Road trade and cultural exchanges. Naturally, the vision of the Asian century will not be readily tolerated, under the present overarching Anglo-American hegemony supported by the stubborn regional underlings who are actively selling out their misinformed people to hang onto the coattails of Western war criminals. When the lives of colored aliens or POC significantly improve on an unprecedented scale, it is increasingly seen as an audacious assault on the myth of “White supremacy”. 😎 This inevitably brings geopolitical consequences, when regional followers refuse to worship Western power underpinned by Anglo-American hegemony. 😈 China’s growing influence will trigger a domino effect, once the cult-like belief in Western invincibility is compromised beyond what’s considered tolerable threshold. Gradual loss of faith in the ultimate superiority of the corrupt political system disguised as genuine liberal democracy and freedom is bound to lead to erosion of the much-touted strength of what increasingly works like an unsustainable financial system. It gravely heightens the risk of dollar collapse, which will subvert America’s attraction as the leading destination for top-notch worldclass talents, who in turn help make the US an overwhelming magnet for global capital. However, another angle to the escalating structural crisis shines the spotlight on a great historic dilemma. China's schoolkids beat American students in all categories - Big Think bigthink.com/politics-current-affairs/pisa-test-china?Autofeed&Social&facebook=1&Facebook#Echobox=1602260749 The Chinese are oppressed idiots who cannot innovate. How sad.... Therefore, what’s the whole point of education? 🤔😱 People are just naturally born creative, judged by the color of skin. Intelligence is a blessing from God. The superior race needs neither AQ nor EQ, because of the presence of exceptional dna that can only be found in a stable genius. 😉👌 Given such messaging, is it any wonder why Americans are now crying foul, reportedly over their “stolen jobs”? 😈 Can the most respected geniuses in the entire history of humanity be beaten by notoriously oppressed idiots who cannot innovate? 🙄 If you seriously believe such blatant bs, you don’t seem too smart. 😌 Nor do you seem to be the lionized free people with your own independent thoughts, imho. 🙈 If you want to see others in perpetual poverty and sickness, will you ultimately be blessed with good fortunes in happiness? 🤔 Does it take a genius to come to terms with the reality, the primary reasons why Americans are undergoing unprecedented sufferings? 🙄 Why stubbornly choose to live in denial, in your own ivory tower? 😌 Continuing foreign policies of an aggressive nature fatally undermines the indispensable rising need for deepening mutual trust between the world’s key stakeholders, who must commit to strengthening international collaboration to meet complex common global challenges. “Who needs who?” 🤔 Honestly, I am not a fan of rhetoric of this nature, to speak the least. Such hubris only exhibits pure ignorance. Before China’s epic reemergence as an economic powerhouse, gross underestimation of China’s potential prevailed throughout advanced Western nations. The situation now however is no better, given escalating attempts to put the genie back into the bottle. 2 wrongs do not make it right. 😌 When they argue that the Chinese cannot innovate, are they asserting it as the gospel truth? 🙄 Or rather, are they trying to make it a reality? 😎🙊 It is a matter of perspective, as to who needs who more, at a particular time. When China needed goods, it sought to establish Silk Road trade links with other states. But when the British empire needed the vast Chinese market to bankroll its colonial expansion throughout the world, it waged 2 opium wars on China. I guess this shows the difference between civilizational culture, and naked barbarity. Ultimately, Trump cannot assume sole responsibility for the historic fallout. 1. If you were a firm believer of intelligent design, it should be seen as nothing short of an unmistakably strong message from God. 2. If you were however, an honest intellectual of natural selection, it would reflect the cataclysmic failure of a supposedly superior system. The idea that America can guarantee your security is first and foremost, deceit or hubris on its part. Equally important however, it is evident of historical amnesia or inferiority complex on your part. I mean, unless America believes it is in a position to replace God, it can guarantee nobody’s destiny. That’s between each of us and God, if you firmly believe intelligent design. On the other hand, an honest intellectual does not foretell that the process of natural selection can ever be dictated by the US. It is in the fundamental interest of the American leadership to stop this pretense. Ultimately, it is neither some all-knowing prophet, nor a selfless crucified savior. 😈 In fact, chances are the opposite will happen. It is far more likely America will meet its doom in the not-too-distant future, thereby overwhelming you with the excessive burden of a falling empire. 1. Did the Queen ever apologize for widespread atrocities committed under centuries of British colonial imperialism until this day and age, given the deepest Western concerns for human rights abuses in other countries? 😌 2. Did she ever exert her overwhelming influence to facilitate the justified return of historical artifacts and cultural relics in the British museum, should she have the least basic respect for historical and cultural property rights? 🙄 3. Why is modern Western liberal democracy in the 21st-century still singing “God save the Queen”? 🤔 4. Did she ever have any guilty-conscience, to continue draining state coffers for her large royal household expenses, amid unprecedented socioeconomic fallout from the pandemic? 5. What’s her opinion, on her own personality cult in the world? 6. Are the Royal Army and Royal Navy supposed to protect the British people, or the British Monarchy? 7. Why are modern Western liberal democracies peddling the corrupt influence of an imperialist dynasty? 8. Isn’t the persistent socioeconomic underdevelopment, evident from the widespread hunger and poverty seen throughout South Asia and Africa, a profound legacy of British colonial rule? China must begin exploring legitimate ways to seek at least some form of symbolic compensation for the opium wars. No normal Chinese person with minimal self-esteem can ever rest in peace, without seeing the rightful return of cultural relics, historical artifacts and national treasures from the British Museum. This is perfectly understandable, in honor of all great civilizational contributions to humanity. No amount of fortune can buy people the dignity they deserve, without the freedom to study their own exceptional achievements in history. No nation can start to uphold the genuine principles of universal human rights, without first respecting the basic right to exercise this freedom. Actions speak louder than words. The fact remains that the sprawling corrupt globalized trade in opium did bankroll the largest colonial empire in human history.

Religious inclusion is a joke, Muslims get beat up and killed, I saw a Buddhist get spit on for giving out pamphlets.

[@linhaohoward]

@Wong Wong I would only agree to a certain extent that Chinese are peaceful. To be more accurate, China has no interest in ruling over people that have nothing in common with our appearance. Superficial it maybe, but throughout history, we can see that China had so many internal war but not much expansionism, most of the expansion is when another race conquered China, combined it’s country’s landmass and after decades or centuries they got overturned again by the Han race. For example China never expanded to Mongolia when its military and economy was flourishing. Mongolian conquered China, combined the borders and Mongolia thus became part of China, renaming itself as the Yuan dynasty. It was also this time that Tibet was officially combined into China under the Yuan dynasty as they were also defeated in war by the Mongolians. Later Mongols were overthrown by Ming dynasty and occupied the China at that point of time which included Mongolia and Tibet. Perhaps you can say that the Han race is a little racist. We don’t bother those that we deemed different and had no interest on ruling over them. However once they’re accepted into the country’s system, China overcomes the racial issue by enticing migration of Han citizens to the new province through tax incentive, free land entitlement and crop seeds, at the same time the travel is paid for by the government. However we will never know how much of these funding ends up in the pockets of the corrupted officials. Interracial marriages eventually prosper in these migrated regions and after afew generations, the people quickly recognise themselves as part of China. Western media probably will complain that it’s a cultural homicide, but it is also the most peaceful and effective way. Also this was happening during an era that western empires like the Greeks, Persians and Romans were using enslavement as the main form of control. We, the Hans aren’t invasive to other races, we ain’t interested to rule other people with white skin and blue eyes, we just wants to be left alone and be ruled by people like ourselves. The western history have proven to be much more aggressive and invasive that they want to rule whoever they can as long as they could.

But are there no reasonable points? How China treats minorities, especially the Uyghurs, simply is against human rights. How the Communist Party tries to silence their opponents or protestors and hide negative things, both past and present, is no healthy way of governing a country. The huge disparities from east coast to the inner part of the country are also very real, just like bad air pollution. I'm definetely not saying everything about China is bad, the economic opening of the country helped hundreds of millions out of poverty and the average chinese person lives in great conditions compared to just a few decades ago. Same thing can be said about the mindblowing economic success and how the one party governing also makes many things faster, e.g. the tackling of corona. I am against only pointing out the negative to push an anti china narrative as there is also much positive to be said, but that doesnt make the negative points (those which are actually factual and true, not those far fetched obvious ones) any less valid and concerning.

Janssen & many Chinese believe “jealousy” is why Western media lies about China (9:22). This is naive, wrong: leadership in organizations (whether govts, corporations, etc) don’t act based on “emotions”. They don’t say, “We’re jealous, happy, sad, or scared … so let’s do XYZ”. All organizations set goals, then make decisions and actions to achieve their goals; they’re rational (but reasoning may be very wrong). Gladiator film quote: “You have a great name (reputation). He must kill your name before he kills you.” Same with countries: first kill a country’s reputation, to justify killing the country itself. Thus, propaganda is basic US policy towards “enemies”: US govt, politicians, media, all demonized Native Americans (during genocide), blacks (slavery), Mexico (Mexico-American war), Spain (Spanish-American war), Japan (WW2; 1980s trade war), USSR (cold war), Cuba, Venezuela (socialists), Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran, Russia, etc. US especially hates other potential superpowers and socialists; China is both, lol. Anti-China propaganda, just normal US history repeating itself. Get it? US propaganda rallies domestic or international support against whoever US seeks to crush, overthrow, etc. Thus, most Americans are brainwashed, believing US still a “good country” and China “evil”. Truth: since WW2, US “democracy” attacked or regime changed more countries than Nazi Germany. Disgusting. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_United_States#21st-century_wars

[@TeddysTube]

THANK YOU !! - I'm so glad to finally hear someone say this out loud, from a platform with a substantial audience. And yes: the drive behind the anti-china sentiment in the western media, is jealousy. The same was the case with the cold war against the soviet union: They were achieving amazing things that we here in the west, at that time, could only dream of. And to make matters worse the reason they could do what we couldn't was that they ditched market economy and the notion that everybody had to compete, which to us, here in the west, was considered something near sacred.. I was a teenager in the 1980s, and I can tell you that back then nobody particularly cared that communism wasn't "democratic".. That wasn't really a big issue back then: After all there were still countries among our political allies against communism, that were constitutionally dictatorships, or ruled by religious priesthoods, so.. Even though of course we considered democracy ourselves and our democracy the best, the matter of what kind of system (except communism of course) was the best, was sort of still up for debate.. The fact that communism wasn't democratic wasn't a big issue. No. Their real atrocity, as far as we were concerned.. what really got our pis boiling.. was the fact that they were not market-economy. In so many words: The soviet union was pissing on our holy cow, and as if to add insult to injury they were having success with it. That's the real reason why we hated them so much that they had to be destroyed at all costs, and why we waged 70 years of cold war of economic harassment against them, so that when they finally caved in to our undermining their their economy, we could tell ourselves that it was somehow because their economic system didn't work. Which is about the worst bucket of bullsh**t, considering the fact that they managed to not only rebuild after WW2 (without the marshall help from the US, that the western european countries had had to lean on), not to mention having to keep up with the extremely expensive nuclear arms race that we were pushing on them, but even had the surplus to thrive and prosper. Market economy was a holy cow to us, and we just couldn't take it that over there in the east they were having success with a different model. And we still can't take it that China has not toed the line but continue to call their system communism. It hurts our pride, and they even have success with it.. And we just can't take it.
