As an older American who has traveled all over Europe and East Asia, I think my country is HIGHLY overrated. In most ways Europe is straight up, just a better version of America. While East Asia is like living in the future. Europe and East Asia also have much lower crime than America and no threat of some crazy guy doing a mass shooting every few days. But there is one thing that is great about America: If you are a Billionaire and want the power to do whatever you want including legally owning politicians and being able to buy the law, there is no place on Earth better than America. America is a really nice place for mega rich people to make even more money and f*ck around with society without consequence.
The one about Germany isn't true at all. About 10 years ago, I had my backpack snatched away by some people whom I assumed them to be middle eastern refugees controlled by syndicate. It happened while I was waiting for an overnight train Cologne station. I reported to the police at the station. Not only was he indifferent to my plight, he was also ignorant as well. My ID say I was of Chinese ethnicity but country is Singapore. Just because he saw the race "Chinese", he insisted I was not telling him the truth and insisted I'm from China. He was also quite racist and didn't seem to understand English. I was under the impression Europeans are conversant in English, esp Germany, obviously not. Actually, contrary to what that idiot said in his article, if you lose something in Europe, it will be very difficult to get it back since it has porous borders among members of the EU, and not as many CCTVs as in East Asian countries.
I think it's safe to assume that these stories are all made up, or at least most of them are, but that's part of why it's so funny. Sorry you had that experience, though. In Europe you shouldn't expect theft to be taken seriously in general. Police doesn't have the resources (at least that's what they say) to do anything about these types of crimes, so they just don't
@@jiayiandjulieinchina ....or it could be a retelling of stories he heard/read. When the country you come from is not so developed and you compare it with a developed one, these assumptions are so common.
Every country does their own propaganda to engage its citizens to take part in nation building. In this case, this could be sort of a repeat from the 1970s in the case of Japan, Germany and France as these middle powers flood the US with cars, machineries and equipment and other goods

I really like your videos, which are very different from others. You have discussed a lot of topics people try to avoid, rational, neutral, and fun to watch. Both of you are intelligent and knowledgeable.
Most colonial powers built sewer systems which "work" because they just discharge the untreated waste into the sea. The UK, fir instance, have sewers still which just dump untreated waste into rivers and sea.
so true, I spent 3 years growing up in Qingdao, the former German colonial sewer system was completely useless since it pollutes everything which is against the regulations in later 2000s

Never ever underestimate alternative discourses inside Western societies and the rest of the world. (Thank goodness for platforms like TikTok 😅😅😅) This is one thing we should learn and live by. Right to dissent/disagree on a matter of topics should be guided accordingly. Misinformation and disinformation only make things worst.
Like everything else, it's not possible to generalized. They are regional differences. There's age differences. Also the influence of social and mass media skewed one's perceptions too. But the observations of US elites, their politics and core interests are quite true. Class political behavior determined by social economic behavior, attitudes has a strong similarities just as in the UK in the last centuries or two past.
还我德国油纸包！还我德国油纸包！还我德国油纸包！Hi Jiayi, didn't you skip the most important part of the Sewerage Story? When the Chinese maintenance persons are trying to fix the sewerage, the can always find the exact parts wrapped in grease paper the Germans prepared hundreds of years ago! You missed the part bro!
Hi guys. You don't have to focus on some sensitive topics, like politics or history. Could you share more happy stories , like traveling , food. Hope to see more videos about the daily life rather than only conversations.
Look at events happened in US in recent years, people with a little intelligence should sense what US really is now, if not, you definitely need a WAKE UP call.
I doubt the student actually challenged his professor at a Chinese university given that Confucian filial piety heavily emphasizes obedience to authority. Speaking up at an American school is a mundane occurrence, but Chinese students will choose to bite their tongue and accept their teacher's instruction as gospel, even if the students know with absolute certainty that the information is factually incorrect.
At least at the beginning, Confucianism did not require obedience to authority. The Analects records a large number of conversations in which Confucius' students questioned Confucius.
clearly you don't see the point, it's during the cultural revolution, it's not about obey or not, it's about praising the class enemy at that time. The story is just out of context.
That part was intentional too, I think. To show how the writer was not afraid to tell the professor when they’re wrong like the free and brave Americans and how different they are from their average Chinese peers😂

As one Malaysia-based vlogger Digital Nomad said in an interview with Cyrus Janssen, a German-American creator who once lived in China for more than a decade.
我们这代人真的是看着这些内容长大的，小时候老师就天天教这些要我们反思我们哪里哪里不好。上一代人真的被西方洗脑的很深，我爸就是，他心目中的西方就是完美的一切都是对的，而且一切问题都能往那个方向拐，我都不想和他说话，真的受不了。前段时间还非要给我吹日本新能源车多好，多么世界领先，而且那时候我在开车也不能把他怎么样，只能听着他扯。
你爸50～60岁之间？
@@alessiii58再过几个月50，对了提到无人机他也要吹欧美的多么先进，然后提一句大疆他明明不了解所以名字都没听过，然后就开始怎么可能比的过西方，肯定差的超级远。只要是有人说比西方哪怕一个点好他就觉得是国内人瞎吹牛。国内运动员只要出成绩他也毫无证据咬定用了兴奋剂，但西方运动员出成绩就是体制优越，重视体育。反正就是如果我们不如西方，那就是我们体制不好；如果我们哪里比西方好，那就是我们造假，还是西方好。和他说话能气死，我也不是多粉红什么的，但是好歹不要妄自菲薄，正视不如别人的但也不能自己看不起自己吧。关键还是我爸不只是网上一条评论，在我耳边讲真是躲都躲不掉，不附和他的想法还要和我来吵架，明明一点逻辑也没有，但是非常固执吵不过就声音比我大盖住我声音就当自己赢了。
@@alessiii58出门玩都糟心，遇到的红灯多几个他要说是制度不好红绿灯设置时间不合理才总是红灯；遇到的街道漂亮他说劳民伤财；遇到的街道不漂亮他说太落后了；堵车他说道路设置不合理。然后每次都要从这些衍生一大堆批判政府吹捧西方，讲的滔滔不绝，还嫌我不喜欢出门，一点意识不到和他出门多影响心情，尤其是看到好风景正开心的时候谁想被他们莫名其妙贬低一通
确实是这样。反倒是我在小时候被这种文字攻势植入了对西方国家的崇拜思想，经常在讨论某些话题的时候动辄说“这数据/研究是美国/欧洲的，比较权威”。反倒是我爸好几次戳破我的漏洞，告诉我“美国的就是正确的吗？”让我意识到问题所在。所以我非常感谢我爸，
想請問您是哪個年代出生的？我身邊好多90後好像反而對西方都挺反感的。
