Comeback: Trump vs. China
The biggest comeback story in American political history is Trump’s win in 2024. The biggest comeback story in human history is China’s comeback over the past few decades. To briefly…
Don’t mess with nuclear-armed China!
In 2015, as a response to American hostility, mainly via Ukraine, Russian President Putin warned: Vladimir Putin: Don’t mess with nuclear-armed Russia. Unfortunately, America did not listen, eventually causing the breakout of the war in Ukraine in 2022.
No Chinese leader has publicly said such a thing so bluntly yet, despite numerous American provocative actions from the South China Sea to Taiwan. But as a Chinese-American, I must now say it: don’t mess with nuclear-armed China!
Where did the US Constitution come from?
Americans revere the US Constitution. But where did it come from? Two points:
- It was heavily copied from the Roman Republic of 2,000 years ago.
- It was not copied from ancient Greece, known for “democracy.”
America: the evil MIC and the ugly culture of war
In two previous posts (America’s evil MIC and America’s culture of war?), I talked about America’s evil MIC and the ugly culture of war, respectively. In this post, I will combine them, triggered by two terror attacks committed by two veterans on January 1, 2025.
Why is America Jeffersonian?
Two outstanding Founding Fathers had two vastly different visions for America: Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson. The latter prevailed, and America has thus been Jeffersonian since then.
Brainwashing in America
I believe America is the most brainwashed, as well as brainwashing, country in the world. One simple reason: [almost] everything American is a lie, but most Americans have no clue about it, nor do many around the world!
An open letter to President-elect Trump
Dear President-elect Trump,
Once again, congratulations on your impressive win. Here is my first congratulations to you published on 11/6/2024: President Trump in the real world of Three New Kingdoms.
What is a harmonious society, anyway?
1. What is a “harmonious society”
Below is an excerpt from Wikipedia – Harmonious Society
The Harmonious Society is a socioeconomic concept in China that is recognized as a response to the increasing alleged social injustice and inequality emerging in mainland Chinese society as a result of unchecked economic growth, which has led to social conflict. The governing philosophy has therefore shifted around economic growth to overall societal balance and harmony.[1] Along with a moderately prosperous society, it was set to be one of the national goals for the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The concept of social harmony dates back to ancient China, to the time of Confucius. As a result, the philosophy has also been characterized as a form of New Confucianism. In modern times, it developed into a key feature of CCP general secretary Hu Jintao‘s signature ideology of the Scientific Outlook on Development developed in the mid-2000s, being re-introduced by the Hu–Wen Administration during the 10th National People’s Congress.
The Three New Kingdoms
By “three new kingdoms,” I mean America, China, and Russia. I call them the “three new kingdoms” because of their striking resemblance to the “three kingdoms” in ancient China.
The three new kingdoms have been fighting against one another since 1945 and will continue to do so in the coming decades.
Top 10 American misconceptions about China
China-bashing sells in America. So, most, if not all, of American news stories about China are negative. Many are pure lies (The Real Reason Western Media Lies about China).
