Whatever you say China being an oppressive, authoritarian regime, or one that is only boasting successes and concealing failures, it won’t change the fact China remains the top-most country most trusted by its own nationals. Its approval ratings > 90% is envied by all its western counterparts. The dramatic growth of its economy in the last 4 decades, making its the 2nd largest economy after the USA. Its ascension to the middle-income bracket while lifting nearly 800 million people from poverty. Its success in beating the covid-19 pandemic with the lowest infection and death rates among major economies. Advancements in 5G/6G, quantum computing/telecommunication, space exploration, Beidou navigational system, etc, all of which are making China one of the most competitive countries. This only says one thing loud and clear - its socialism model with unique Chinese characteristics is one that is working, and for that matter, it is far more efficient than Western Capitalism Model where 99% of wealth is controlled by the top 1%. China is now embracing on its latest 'Common Prosperity' program, building an even bigger middle class group as well as spreading the national wealth more evenly among its nationals. Perhaps in the not-too-distant future, China will attain its goal of national rejuvenation, regaining its leadership position in the central stage of the global arena, leading its vast population to prosperity, stability, and peace.
China has a massive population and a low per capita, about the same as Mexico's per capita. Based on my limited understanding of economics, If they manage to raise that to the same level as the U.S per capita, their economy will dwarf the U.S's. That will be wild.

China isn't betting on the USA to fail, it is actively working so it does while also strengthening itself. And if the USA actually worked against China, it would be much better. Half of the situation the USA is in is because people with power and influence bow to chinese money and hand over anything they ask for, because they (unlike the chinese) have no love whatsoever for their country.

I've been living in China for more than 20 years. I want to point out that "one-party" or "No general election" doesn't mean that Chinese people cannot express their opinions or criticize the government. The West always tends to describe China as a nation without "freedom" and the people living there are "unhappy" under the high pressure of the central government. But the fact is actually the opposite. Chinese people are satisfied with their leader and system. They trust the government because the system enables the government to find the most capable politicians to "Serve the people" but not make the election become a ridiculous game of the rich.
Absolutely agree. I find it interesting how Chinese and people from many democratic countries have a completely different mindsets in terms of government. Eg when facing the pandemic, many people in the western countries view the measurements taken by their government such as lockdown and vaccine as a violation to liberty/human rights. However in China, people see these measurements as an inherent responsibility of the government. They think that by doing so, the government is caring about the people's live, and they willing to participate together to achieve the same goal as with the government. I think this mindset is the crucial point of why the virus has been contained so well in China, and this willingness to cooperate with the government is unseperatable with the China model.

Even pushing aside the Chinese political system, that the USA is the beacon of democracy is ridiculous. Within the western countries, many countries are showing better performance than the USA in terms of the benefit and equality, such as north European countries. Speaking of taking care of the working class, contrary to the USA which has been abducted by the capitalists, German has a healthier and more balanced economical structure. So the problem is not about the communism or authoritarian. It’s the declined hegemony that the USA is facing.
Northern European countries are very homogeneous, there are social realities they don’t have to deal with, they are 100 times tougher on immigration, rely heavily on natural resources and have a smaller population.

One of the things I hear that’s commonly repeated by western media is how the cultural revolution and agriculture reforms were an economic failure for China. While if you are judging from the economic perspective, that is true. But, that is where the point is missed. The point of the reforms weren’t to make China rich at the time, it was to change the culture of bourgeoisie and elitism to “re-set” the nation together so it wouldn’t grow apart, so people were United in mind, spirit, and actions. Money wasn’t on their mind, because that wasn’t important for the whole at the time. It was not about the individual but creating a new culture. This wasn’t just communism that caused this but they were searching for this new culture since the early 1900s with the decline of the Qing Dynasty, and inability of the old system from protecting Chinese peoples and lands. It’s hard to interpret another system if you don’t understand the history and context. Every analysis I hear from the west is from the Western perspective and applying western understandings and their own beliefs onto China. That in itself is a fallacy. If you are a plumber and judging everything like a broken window from the plumbing perspective you are not getting the whole picture and misconstruing facts to fit into your own narrative.
Economic failure in the sense that millions of people died. I bet that was an humbling experience indeed. It is hard to grow apart when one simply cuts off the part growing away.
Well said. The video mentioned that China government forced a lot of young men and women to rural area...Well, that's because the cities can't offer enough jobs to young men then, it was a strategic decision to let them work in rural so they can be feed at least, and come back once more jobs can be offered with the economic growth in cities. Collectivistic economy model in China rural area at that time allows Government to have the ability that can arrange millions of jobless young men/women to work in the land of the rural. If the land is private owned by farmer that wouldn't be possible.

The wisdom of the Chinese people is not just material rational civilization. Wisdom in culture and art is also worthy of admiration and learning. Compared with many hegemonic countries, he prefers to enhance his competitiveness and do his own thing well, so that his perseverance is in the world of civilization.
Democracy only works when the entire population is well educated, when there is culture and respect among one another. Democracy in the west isn't working and will not work because everyone is different. Has different cultures, believe in different gods, beliefs on what's right or wrong, everyone looks different. How long can one another live together with opposing forces, you can only respect differences for so Long until you can no longer avoid confrontation.

In China we call these volunteers in hospitals 白衣天使and白衣战士,which means The Angel in White and The Warriors in White. They come from all over China, some medical staff, some soldiers, some just normal citizens, answering the nation’s call for help and organization. Many of them are ones of the new generation (born in 2000s), who many consider to be young foolish and lazy people. But they bravely stepped forward, not seeing family for months, fainting from the heat in their protection gear, faces swelling up from long hours with masks, hard work in exchange for the happiness and security of their homeland and their fellow people. They proved those accusing voices wrong, and in doing so earned all of our respects. Salute to them❤️
The analysis is too ideological. Ideology is mostly just used to get people riled up enough to get into a fight, it does not do much to help understand what is actually happening.
I beg to differ. We all know what is actually happening in the world, it is all in the news however, what is behind all that is happening is largely due to the country's concept of such ideology adopted, which is a sensitive word for the west that has been overly use to dictate "which ideology is the best" instead of understand all the pros and cons of ideology and come to embrace the differences of system. Unless if you are questioning the history and origin of ideology, that is a different story in this discussion.
@@JustinLBK I am not sure we do all know what is actually happening in the world. A lot of things are underreported. Other things are widely reported, but in a misleading way. Occasionally we are blatantly lied to. In general I think that ideology of all forms is typically used to try to persuade people go to war against some adversary. The truth is never ideological. The truth is not a crusader.
It is easier to control people when they are poor. Now that they have basic necessities, Chinese people will explore freedom, expression of thought. With no diversity and immigration tolerated, new ideas will die. It will be interesting to see how the CCP then repeats the Tianmen Square massacre.
I would say the eyeopener in recent decades is not so much China but how the US itself has changed. It is no longer the utopia of freedom that I grew up respecting but a divided nation split along the different interests of the Uber rich who own the media(including social media and Bloomberg) who control the narrative competing against each other.

Deng Xiaoping was one of the greatest political and government leaders of all time. Very few people can claim that they have affected not only their nation, but the world, as much him. He is easily on par with the Founding Father's in America, and should be studied by all people interested in politics and governance. The fact that most people in the west do not know his name is a true shame; we could learn a lot from him.
Your point is interesting. Deng Xiaoping was a great statesman and strategist. He experienced many wars and political struggles in his life. And successfully grasped the power of a country, and chose a correct path for China at a critical point in time. He is a legend in his own right.
Singapore has taken the same path, nobody is concerned with it. "The sustainability of the Chinese model" has been in question for the past 50 years, lol.
The amount of self hatred by people living in western countries in this comment section is astonishing. Need I remind you, that the only reason you're even able to discuss these things is that you live in a democracy?
And that's about it. People talk, march, protest, vote, and yet Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, the financial crisis, covid and Trump happened. More are on the way, and few of them are because of China. It makes this whole video absurd - pointing finger at China, saying it "promotes" its model and questioning its sustainability...does little in sorting your own house out. Anxiety and fear is making people losing ability to concentrate and on prioritize on the urgent.
That's one thing in which I believe we should be more like China. In the end both China, America and their allies are countries fighting for their own interests. China's restrictive system gives them a huge advantage to do pretty much whatever they want without internal opposition that the US and Europe don't have.
There’s nothing wrong with self reflection and admitting that there are flaws in your system it’s the only way to make things better. China does this very well… they identify their deficiencies and take action to improve.

NO, China's success is because Chinese government adopted the social and economic policies that fits China and hard-working from Chinese people.

Whatever you say China being an oppressive, authoritarian regime, or one that is only boasting successes and concealing failures, it won’t change the fact China remains the top-most country most trusted by its own nationals. Its approval ratings > 90% is envied by all its western counterparts. The dramatic growth of its economy in the last 4 decades, making its the 2nd largest economy after the USA. Its ascension to the middle-income bracket while lifting nearly 800 million people from poverty. Its success in beating the covid-19 pandemic with the lowest infection and death rates among major economies. Advancements in 5G/6G, quantum computing/telecommunication, space exploration, Beidou navigational system, etc, all of which are making China one of the most competitive countries.

One of the biggest failures of western countries I observed is that instead of acknowledging and working on their own social, political or racial problems, they tend to blame all problems on someone else or divert the focus by making new problems just because it's easier. Fundamentally it's lacking of accountabilities.

Wouldn't the world be a better place if everyone can learn from their counterparty, compete freely and evolve?

Oh dear. I lived in Singapore. It’s democratic for sure. Unless you can show me facts that counter my knowledge.
I've been living in China for more than 20 years. I want to point out that "one-party" or "No general election" doesn't mean that Chinese people cannot express their opinions or criticize the government. The West always tends to describe China as a nation without "freedom" and the people living there are "unhappy" under the high pressure of the central government. But the fact is actually the opposite. Chinese people are satisfied with their leader and system. They trust the government because the system enables the government to find the most capable politicians to "Serve the people" but not make the election become a ridiculous game of the rich.
Absolutely agree. I find it interesting how Chinese and people from many democratic countries have a completely different mindsets in terms of government. Eg when facing the pandemic, many people in the western countries view the measurements taken by their government such as lockdown and vaccine as a violation to liberty/human rights. However in China, people see these measurements as an inherent responsibility of the government. They think that by doing so, the government is caring about the people's live, and they willing to participate together to achieve the same goal as with the government. I think this mindset is the crucial point of why the virus has been contained so well in China, and this willingness to cooperate with the government is unseperatable with the China model.

You are wrong. It is US who's wondering about communism or capitalism. We Chinese only focus on one thing: developping.
The problem is when people compare Communism to Democracy. The comparison should more properly be between Communism and Capitalism. There's nothing stopping a Communist society from being democratic. Communism and Capitalism are economic systems. Democracy and Totalitarianism are another thing all together. It is possible to have a totalitarian Capitalist state and it is also possible to have a democratic Communist state. It's a mistake to equate Democracy with Capitalism and Totalitarianism with Communism.
Let's be serious, China is not communist at all. Yes, they have a controlled economy, but that is far from communism. It is even more close to capitalism. But capitalism under government regulation.
China is practising Socialism + Capitalism. This has been put into China's constitution, and it calls "Socialism with Chinese Characteristics". China is NOT a Communist society. If you don't understand this, you don't under China.

One of the things I hear that’s commonly repeated by western media is how the cultural revolution and agriculture reforms were an economic failure for China. While if you are judging from the economic perspective, that is true. But, that is where the point is missed. The point of the reforms weren’t to make China rich at the time, it was to change the culture of bourgeoisie and elitism to “re-set” the nation together so it wouldn’t grow apart, so people were United in mind, spirit, and actions. Money wasn’t on their mind, because that wasn’t important for the whole at the time. It was not about the individual but creating a new culture. This wasn’t just communism that caused this but they were searching for this new culture since the early 1900s with the decline of the Qing Dynasty, and inability of the old system from protecting Chinese peoples and lands. It’s hard to interpret another system if you don’t understand the history and context. Every analysis I hear from the west is from the Western perspective and applying western understandings and their own beliefs onto China. That in itself is a fallacy. If you are a plumber and judging everything like a broken window from the plumbing perspective you are not getting the whole picture and misconstruing facts to fit into your own narrative.

"you can't blame China on how the pie is cut and distributed in US"
one of the vid here said that
Work hard slaves
He mentioned Australia, New Zealand, South Korea and Singapore - all countries are basically islands (including South Korea because the border with North Korea isnt crossed at all). And you can handle pandemic much better when you are an island than an inland country. Oh, btw Brazil, UK and other countries in the EU are democracies and look how they failed.
the man is deluded; he concluded that is better to not be Iran, North Korea based on nothing (I specifically replayed that part several times thinking I missed the reason why he said that)
He conveniently omitted Vietnam.
In China we call these volunteers in hospitals 白衣天使and白衣战士,which means The Angel in White and The Warriors in White. They come from all over China, some medical staff, some soldiers, some just normal citizens, answering the nation’s call for help and organization. Many of them are ones of the new generation (born in 2000s), who many consider to be young foolish and lazy people. But they bravely stepped forward, not seeing family for months, fainting from the heat in their protection gear, faces swelling up from long hours with masks, hard work in exchange for the happiness and security of their homeland and their fellow people. They proved those accusing voices wrong, and in doing so earned all of our respects. Salute to them❤️
The analysis is too ideological. Ideology is mostly just used to get people riled up enough to get into a fight, it does not do much to help understand what is actually happening.
I beg to differ. We all know what is actually happening in the world, it is all in the news however, what is behind all that is happening is largely due to the country's concept of such ideology adopted, which is a sensitive word for the west that has been overly use to dictate "which ideology is the best" instead of understand all the pros and cons of ideology and come to embrace the differences of system. Unless if you are questioning the history and origin of ideology, that is a different story in this discussion.
Glad you’ve noticed what mainstream media loves to do.
Nothing but an agenda.
@@JustinLBK I am not sure we do all know what is actually happening in the world. A lot of things are underreported. Other things are widely reported, but in a misleading way. Occasionally we are blatantly lied to.
In general I think that ideology of all forms is typically used to try to persuade people go to war against some adversary. The truth is never ideological. The truth is not a crusader.
If you know that
Then you know to eat the small amount of meat around the bones

@@TheLabecki Hi
1989 China would have become 2011 Libya if nothing was done.
It is easier to control people when they are poor. Now that they have basic necessities, Chinese people will explore freedom, expression of thought. With no diversity and immigration tolerated, new ideas will die. It will be interesting to see how the CCP then repeats the Tianmen Square massacre.
I would say the eyeopener in recent decades is not so much China but how the US itself has changed.
It is no longer the utopia of freedom that I grew up respecting but a divided nation split along the different interests of the Uber rich who own the media(including social media and Bloomberg) who control the narrative competing against each other.
spot on
Exactly, america is the biggest threat to this world.
@@xhaolee1920 people are more likely to turn against their government when they are poor. How many violent revolutions happened in countries with a high standard of living?
The more a government improves the lives of its people (which is it's main job), the more loyal the people will be.

Singapore a democracy ? That is highly questionable. Failure to mention Taiwan.

Yeah agreed. They forgot to mentioned that Taiwan is such a failure.
You know what a joke is?

Hi bro. Love from ind.
You may be right, but at the end of the day, Americans vote, they’ve always managed to plan their own family profiles, they are net exporters of food, they dominate space, possess the worlds reserve currency... world class universities. ..they are fanatical about not wanting the opposite of that.
@@300blk3 You live in a fantasy... But keep voting, I'm sure that's the solution to all problems, as the past two decades in America has proven.🙄

There's no better ruling system, only better people comprising it.
I don't know, the worst country in the world to be a journalist is China, there is no real freedom there, they are doing state racism, signification and expansionism and it is rapidly becoming one of the least equal countries on the planet, only slightly behind the USA, and way less equal than most western countries, but luckily for the Chinese public, they have no right to complain about it and will lose 'social credit,' for even questioning the system.
I don't actually think it's close which government style is better.
@@alex29443 well you also have to consider the fact that freedom of speech can act as an alias to narrative reporting, like just look at this video, the whole video is just accusations against china and made with the clear intent to undermine the china's success.

The fact that they have this relatively neutral video by Western media standard is because they start to recognize China's success and the impact on their claim.
@@domitravel795an incomplete truth is a lie. For example, London is the most monitored city in the world. But in this video, it only show camera in China. Obviously, they want to mislead you. There are many similar examples in this video.
@@shylockjohnson2076 "Most monitored city in the world" means nothing... it is just one city. China contains most of the surveillance cameras in the world. It is how they keep full control on their population. This video is actually very unbiased and relies on facts.

Deng Xiaoping was one of the greatest political and government leaders of all time. Very few people can claim that they have affected not only their nation, but the world, as much him. He is easily on par with the Founding Father's in America, and should be studied by all people interested in politics and governance. The fact that most people in the west do not know his name is a true shame; we could learn a lot from him.
He is studied. But in the West studious people do not govern, rich people do.
Your point is interesting. Deng Xiaoping was a great statesman and strategist. He experienced many wars and political struggles in his life. And successfully grasped the power of a country, and chose a correct path for China at a critical point in time. He is a legend in his own right.
Singapore has taken the same path, nobody is concerned with it. "The sustainability of the Chinese model" has been in question for the past 50 years, lol.
The amount of self hatred by people living in western countries in this comment section is astonishing. Need I remind you, that the only reason you're even able to discuss these things is that you live in a democracy?
And that's about it. People talk, march, protest, vote, and yet Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, the financial crisis, covid and Trump happened. More are on the way, and few of them are because of China. It makes this whole video absurd - pointing finger at China, saying it "promotes" its model and questioning its sustainability...does little in sorting your own house out. Anxiety and fear is making people losing ability to concentrate and on prioritize on the urgent.
Plenty of western tankies and philotyrants, sadly thats nothing new.
That's one thing in which I believe we should be more like China. In the end both China, America and their allies are countries fighting for their own interests. China's restrictive system gives them a huge advantage to do pretty much whatever they want without internal opposition that the US and Europe don't have.
There’s nothing wrong with self reflection and admitting that there are flaws in your system it’s the only way to make things better.
China does this very well… they identify their deficiencies and take action to improve.
@@Dfgbuiiyyyybb bfffffffffffffff... 🤣🤣 Tiananmen square anyone? Is that how China self reflects?

CCP propaganda
US is always judging other nation from its own, lot of times, selfish perspective: 1) China never intended to export its system (one system only fits its special condition) to other countries, IT IS THE US that feels can not dictate its own system onto China; 2) US always blame others for its failure, so it thinks that China's success is due to Western's failure. NO, China's success is because Chinese government adopted the social and economic policies that fits China and hard-working from Chinese people. By the same token, the decline of the US is not because of China, it is solely its own problem. China doesn't invade, doesn't sanction, doesn't arrest entrepreneur, academics from US. IT IS TIME for US to CLEARN ITS OWN MESS!

From this video it looks clear to me the experts still don't know Chinese system well. It will take tremendous time to have the west truly understand how Chinese unique culture and system works.
