Propaganda works.
What's funny is I can't tell if you're talking about younger Americans refusing to hate China or older Americans chanting "China Bad!"
300,000 people are on the organ donor wait-list in China at this very moment.
You're a perfect example of the power of propaganda lol
The US has a ton of problems, I'm not saying it's a great country to live in necessarily (I wouldn't move there given the choice). But it's not a dictatorship where laws are optional for the government.
Maybe freedom doesn't mean anything to you when you're not the one being reeducated though.
"Lol" is always such a strong argument. Really shows that your point is to be taken seriously.
If you think that the rule of law in dictatorships is really no worse than that of a democratic country (even one that's currently in bad shape) I think you're delusional honestly.
We have a lot of problems with our legal systems but we don't have gulags where we send political opponents to disappear. We don't have government edicts telling our journalists what they are allowed to talk about.
When your own country does bad things it's easy to look at other counties with rise tinted glasses. 國外的月亮比較圓
My Zenzes are tingling
Both tbh
American failures are being used to prop up Chinese successes. This is particularly true in urbanism discussions. China is by no means perfect and thinking that they are is harmful to progress.
Lmao
Western propaganda clearly isn't working on young people.
