> The CCP enjoys a pretty high level of support in China. I want to add that Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" is the greatest book of wisdom in the world (in my opinion.) That is the China that lives in my affections. So China as a people and a culture is much much older and larger than the communists. The first Chinese New Years Parade was held here in 1851 (predating the communist party by ~70-80 years, eh?)Īlso, there are millions of Chinese that do not live in China There has always been a Chinese cultural influence in my life. > Furthermore, 'Liking China but opposing CCP' is, in actuality, a statement that doesn't make much sense once you understand how the CCP - Chinese people relationship actually works: īut I can tell you what I mean when I say that. I also don't get my news from mainstream Western new media because they are biased (I agree with you about that.) If that's what happened then that's also bad.Īnyway, I don't get my news from Twitter. > Take a look at how they attack innocent women and elderly that simply disagree with them.
> You think the Hong Kong rioters are fighting for freedom? What is the "different side to the story" of involuntary organ harvesting of political and religious prisoners? > You list a bunch of terms as if in a 'gotcha' manner, but pretty much all of those things have a different side to the story. This begins with gaining an accurate image of what China is, not the media stereotype. If you really want to help Chinese people, you gotta first understand where they come from. My point: by listing all those terms, you are painting a one-dimensional, stereotypical, overblown and distorted view of China. Many Chinese read western media, think 'wtf is this overblown nonsense?', and end up supporting CCP more, even if they were previously neutral or slightly anti. This support has grown tremendously in the past decade, in no small part thanks to all the demonization bullshit that western media tries to pull on China. Even many people who use VPN to use Twitter say they support the CCP. The CCP enjoys a pretty high level of support in China. Heck, I don't even dare going to Hong Kong anymore - as someone with a mainland background, I fear for my life.įurthermore, 'Liking China but opposing CCP' is, in actuality, a statement that doesn't make much sense once you understand how the CCP - Chinese people relationship actually works: The rioting, the violence, the hate for mainlanders (hate for PEOPLE, not just CCP) has completely taken over the movement. This isn't just about one or two people who are criminals. Here's the real story, I've written a summary just earlier today: Western media romanticizes the whole thing by not reporting anything about the dark side of the movement, and by cutting footage to make the rioters look like heroes. You think the Hong Kong rioters are fighting for freedom? Take a look at how they attack innocent women and elderly that simply disagree with them: I'll start with one thing, because addressing them all takes too long. You list a bunch of terms, but pretty much all of those things have a different side to the story. Zoom isn't a Chinese company, but their development team has been entirely based in China all this time and there have been concerns about that (which are entirely legitimate for certain groups like governments, in my opinion), especially given their communications aren't e2e encrypted.

Update #2: I thought about FooBarWidget and others' comments, and I'm going to alter my wording. But there will definitely be a concern about them being acquired by a Chinese company. And as a Zoom user, I'm generally happy about this development. This is clearly an Aquihire meant to bolster Zoom's security talent. Update: I just want to clarify that I am happy for the Keybase team. Keybase felt like WireGuard for its use case, just dead simple and also secure. PGP is dead on arrival, since it's an overcomplicated mess. I have used and advocated strongly for Keybase with a couple of local government clients to send sensitive files back and forth (not sensitive in the sense of national security, but more to preserve privacy and store encrypted at rest).īut I want to get ahead of the concern that Keybase is now owned by a Chinese company, which instantly compromises it.
