Just curious, does anybody know if the present day Western gender rot is having any impact in China?
I'm wondering because so much of traditional Chinese thought is based in binaries. Male-Female is a core part of Confucian thought (and similarly in Taoism, etc.). The Ying and the Yang are Good/Evil, Light/Dark, Male/Female.
With that cultural background (plus the gentle suggestions of the CCP overlords), I wonder if Chinese society is at all protected.
You have to go that far back to find a contribution by the Chinese? You’re making my point.
And what does Persia or India have to do with anything?
The modern Chinese are controlled by pretty tyrants and dictators. They create nothing of value, they only copy and steal from others. I have nothing against the Chinese people, but their acceptance of authoritarianism prevents them from ever being a great civilization.
Well if you want to fish that way, 5G technologies are mostly patented by Huawei. There is a ton of them, that are now being cross licensed, due to Huawei being pushed out of non-chinese friendly markets (rightly so) for spying with their gear. Doesn't change that the underlying technology is Chinese created. This is something I can state because its a field I am close to. I have no doubt they have innovations in industrial manufacturing either, because you can't be the world's factory and not have those, but I am not into that part of the chain.
"Acceptance of authoritarianism" in a country where you will literally never be heard of again, unless someone DNAs organs being donated.
Meanwhile we live under Biden, Jan 6 malarkey, FBI invasions for political theater, and the chopping of our children's futures, while being forced to accept experimental vaccines and lockdowns.
Thinking that the Chinese accept their government from good will, is about as naive as thinking Ukraine is the good guy and Russia man bad.
I don't know what you think you're arguing against.
The Chinese people permitted and even supported the rise of Communism long before they had the modern technology capable of monitoring every second of their lives. Yes, the same thing will happen in the USA if people don't stand up against authoritarianism here, as clearly evidenced by recent events. Nobody is arguing otherwise.
Are you Chinese, by any chance? Because I'm sensing a degree of insecurity in your argumentation. You're continually resorting to whataboutism to deflect and talk about how everyone except the Chinese are flawed.
If I point out how successful the Taiwanese (Chinese + liberalism) are, how will you react I wonder?
Wow. What a stupid deflection. I'm assuming you're a long nosed banker since you are obsessed with US capitalism?
At this point you are obviously not understanding the nuance between people, government and culture. Good luck on your journey of understanding.
Would it bring you great shame to pretend not to be Chinese
