Over in China, where they have an ancient and healthy civilisation and culture, the Chinese recognise the stupidity, ignorance, hypocrisy, and suicidal insanity of the Western Cultural Left:
The Chinese are laughing at us as we destroy our civilisation because of the policies demanded by the multicultural, self-hating, cancerous Cultural Left, policies which, these days, are also often strongly supported by the equally disgusting mainstream multicultural Conservatives (who simply combine Cultural Leftism with free market economics).

Straw men are still made of straw...
ReplyDeleteA useful word.
ReplyDeleteThe Chinese students I teach aren't really easy to characterise by Western political categories.
ReplyDeleteOn the one hand, they are intensely patriotic. They believe their nation and their flag should be respected. They show pride in the groups that they are members of - not only country, but also their hometown and school.
On the other hand, on the whole, they are very sensitive to the disadvantages faced by poor and ordinary people as opposed to the rich. They tend to be sensitive to and supportive of arguments that uphold the people on the bottom of the ladder. They aren't fans of neoliberal policy fixes. And at times they were willing to sacrifice 'free speech' if it meant a leveller playing field.
These have been my own observations, anyway, drawing from several fairly limited samples.
