I opened this video expecting to be disappointed. And I was captured, immediately, by its insight.

I don't know very much about China. But I know what I don't know & I know that the Chinese government is the enemy of everyone who is not Chinese and, also, the enemy of nearly everyone who IS Chinese.

BTW, I am fine with someone being ethnic Chinese; it is the government which makes my hair stand on end.

And I'm not sure about the "culture". I don't know what their culture is all about. But I'm also not sure how much of their culture survived Mao and the CCP.
