I was referring to social structure and the empowerment of individual rights(人权) in my last post, but you immediately assumed that I was defending democracy(民主) and U.S. foreign policy. You assumed that I couldn't speak Chinese just because I have a basic command of the English language. You assumed that I did not understand Chinese culture when in fact I have spent almost half of my life living in China.
I think you make a lot of assumptions.
Your behavior is typical of an armchair pseudo-ideologist though. I've come across many like you in my adventures through the internets. You have a skewed vision of reality built upon assumptions made within your limited experience and (state-censored) information. But it's important to understand that true logical analysis and objectivity do not come from assumptions, they come from explicit facts.
Here are some facts for you:
Just 4 months into 2015, the US has already depleted its annual supply of EB-5 immigrant (investor) visas.. Chinese nationals account for 90% of total visas issued. The expatriation of the upper/upper-middle class citizens posed a big enough threat that the Chinese government had to send official envoys overseas in an attempt to repatriate these individuals.
"谁可以保证美国人欧洲人不会向中国人学习?"
I'm not going to make assumptions of what the west has learned from the Chinese, but I do know what China has already learned from the west. China has been functioning in the form of "state capitalism" and has just recently surpassed the U.S. in income inequality. The PRC was founded on egalitarian ideals, so you have to appreciate the irony here.
"你连中文都不会讲,能理解中国文化的以和为贵的思想."
As I mentioned earlier I spent the first half of my life in China so my Mandarin is fluent, and I still frequent this site and some others like it to acquaint myself with China's current state of affairs. I've traveled to more than 10 different countries and I have lived in 3 of them. I don't make assumptions about these societies and cultures because I don't need to, I've experienced them first-hand.
"毛泽东带领中国人站立于世界民族之林"
Under Mao's rule, he adopted isolationism and China could not break even economically. Thanks to the cultural revolution China could not progress socially. The result is the death some 36 million+ from starvation, and some 300,000 suicides from the social pressure Mao's policies inflicted on the capitalists and intellectuals. It doesn't take a genius to figure out what happens to a society when you systematically kill off the scholars and the entrepreneurs. You don't have to believe me, you don't even have to believe the history books. Feel free to talk to your parents, or grandparents and ask them what life was like under Mao's rule. It wasn't until 1978 that Deng opened China's doors to international trade and put a stop to Mao's disastrous policies. The success of China today should be attributed to Mao's death. If he had lived another 30 years, China would still be like North Korea.
I honestly don't understand your blatant disregard for facts. Indoctrination maybe? Fanaticism? Idolatry? Mao was a horrible leader, Deng was less so. Xi is heading in the right direction because the economy in China continues to flourish under his policies. There are good leaders and bad leaders, just like every country in the world. |
