China’s World View / China Scholar Biases
Apr 14
Important to note the Marxist dialectic pedagogical paradigm that skews Mainland scholarship , even with the best of intentions. Namely, excess emphasis on “them vs us”; “East vs West” and a related unwillingness to publicly expose (share) China’s weaknesses. As some one who has lived in China for over 30 years as corporate lawyer , writer, and small business owner, the day-to-day problems are rarely discussed. Here you go: China’s borders are porous, with multiple challenges with all of its neighbors. This is China’s main preoccupation. Secondly, annual and chronic environmental disasters many of its own making . Third, rising inflation with insufficient economic tools to stem inflation’s growth . China’s ancient history is often used as a diversion to mask present day problems. China’s post 1949 education system is less than ideal; this comment is also a taboo and not subject to open debate and not easily changed. But easily evidenced by the “tsunami” level of Mainland Chinese studying abroad.
So smart yet so gullible
Jun 12
You can not possibly be so smart and really believe that J-6 was an insurrection. Turn that big brain loose on at all we know now about the deep state manipulation of events that day and the corrupt congressional committee that works furiously to cover it up. J-6 was a Fed Op - so call it a ‘Fed-surrection.’ Here’s a clue: Republicans don’t show up to an insurrection without their guns. Conservatives are the constitution lovers. Your side are the dictator loving street thugs. George Floyd and Summer of Love riots are how the progressives roll - those are insurrections. Using a corrupt judicial system to wage law fare against your political enemies is insurrection. A never ending stream of hoaxes by our intelligence agencies designed to bring down our duly elected president is insurrection. Opening the border to floods of inverted military age men to destabilize our society is insurrection. So smart yet so clueless.
