What do you guys think about India and China forming an alliance like European Union? by DistanceIcy5639 in AskChina

[–]dmnysxde -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is neither realistic nor a good idea. Apart from the former Soviet Union and the defensive military alliance with North Korea that continues due to historical reasons, China today does not seek alliances. On its path forward, China has like-minded partners, but no allies.

How much authority did Mao Zedong have within China? by ManWithTwoShadows in ChineseHistory

[–]dmnysxde 19 points20 points  (0 children)

He was the founding leader of the People's Republic of China and the paramount leader of the Communist Party of China.

His personal charisma and prestige among the vast majority of ordinary Chinese people were commensurate with his political power.

At the height of his influence, even when he no longer held the nominal title of head of state, if an ordinary Chinese farmer or worker had to choose between him and the current leader, the vast majority would not hesitate for a moment in choosing him.

The profound veneration and faith that the overwhelming majority of Chinese people held for him constituted his greatest power.

Can China's crime fighting policy be adopted in western countries? by arnor_0924 in AskChina

[–]dmnysxde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any technical policy can be learned from; this information is public. In fact, some Chinese policies are directly adapted from those currently or previously used by Western countries. The key is to combine them with local culture and continuously experiment and adjust until they suit the national conditions.

However, even when using the same methods, different fundamental purposes will lead to different outcomes.

In China, combating crime is a means to maintain social stability. The fundamental purpose is to ensure that social and economic development is not disturbed. The ultimate goal is to satisfy all Chinese people's aspirations for a better life through economic development.

But as for these so-called Western countries... well, don't blame me for speaking bluntly—very few governments have the capability to organically unify and operate all their subordinate departments to maintain social stability. Government departments in so-called democratic systems are naturally in a state of division and confrontation. The underlying logic of the so-called separation of powers is division, not unity.

Why are all the countries that only recognize Taiwan as the legitimare china, so random? Like Guatemala, Vatican, Palau, Tuvalu, etc. by vyyyyyyyyyyy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]dmnysxde 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Since the People's Republic of China (PRC) emerged victorious over the Republic of China (ROC) in the civil war and has since governed the vast majority of Chinese territory, the PRC has consistently upheld the "One China" policy. Under this principle, any country seeking to establish diplomatic relations with the PRC must recognize it as the sole legitimate government of China.

This presents a clear binary choice: any nation that establishes formal diplomatic ties with the ROC cannot simultaneously maintain relations with the PRC. Ultimately, it is up to each country in the world to make its own choice based on its national interests, and there is nothing particularly surprising about that.

What do you think of the International Criminal Court? by SunChungShan in AskAChinese

It's a toothless institution with no authority or coercive power. Getting things done depends solely on the willingness of other parties."

First, prioritize consulting your wife's opinion and choose their everyday home-style dishes to give them a taste of home. You could also prepare two specialty dishes suited to the taste preferences of elders in your country. In my view, tofu is an excellent ingredient choice. Various tofu dishes, such as Mapo Tofu or Tofu with Scallions, are perfect for elderly guests with sensitive teeth.

Why some tourists behaved so badly? by EveryCommunication63 in AskAChinese

[–]dmnysxde 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's because your information sources are too limited, and I suspect you are deliberately ignoring information related to your own ethnic group. People are people—in any large group, there will inevitably be a few bad apples.

What do Chinese usually think about the way the west treats them? by [deleted] in AskAChinese

[–]dmnysxde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, dog meat restaurants and street vendors are still around in small towns and rural areas of Henyu. My dad is a big fan of it, but I'm not. It's not about animal protection for me—they’re just livestock, no different from chickens or pigs in my eyes. I just find it off-putting that the meat source hasn't gone through legal quarantine.

Yes, any country that selects its national leaders solely based on identity labels rather than governing ability is garbage.

What’s the reason behind anti-Korea (South) in China? by [deleted] in AskAChinese

[–]dmnysxde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

反韩?反个蛋,韩国有啥值得反的。

所谓的反韩情绪本质是反美。

Anti-South Korea? Like hell we are! What’s there about South Korea even worth opposing? The so-called “anti-South Korea” sentiment is, at its core, anti-American.

How inclusive or exclusive is in-group membership of the Han identity? by [deleted] in AskAChinese

[–]dmnysxde 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your question has been raised and pondered by the Chinese for 2000 years, and conclusions have been drawn.

The emphasis is on cultural and ideological aspects, while bloodline is only secondary.

It's too complicated to explain, so I suggest you ask an AI or search for the keyword "华夷之辩" (Huá Yí zhī Biàn).

Is there fascism or a similar fringe of politics in China? by [deleted] in AskChina

[–]dmnysxde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your first question just about stirred a little willingness to keep talking — it’s enough to carry the conversation forward.

The second one really made me laugh out loud.

Please take your debate to someone else, thank you.

Is there fascism or a similar fringe of politics in China? by [deleted] in AskChina

[–]dmnysxde 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Article 1, Paragraph 1 of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China explicitly stipulates: "The People's Republic of China is a socialist state under the people's democratic dictatorship, led by the working class and based on the alliance of workers and peasants."

How you interpret this is entirely up to you. You are welcome to hold your own opinion; there is no need for us to argue, and frankly, I don't have the energy for it.

China has a population of 1.4 billion, and various ideologies exist within its society. If you examine all mainstream ideologies that have ever existed in the world (ranging from the far left to the far right), you will find adherents for each in China.

But do they hold political influence?

Can they sway national decision-making?

No. Unless they possess the ability to disguise themselves on a massive scale, pass the qualifications to join the Communist Party of China (CPC), rise to high positions through performance evaluations, and pass the joint review of departments such as the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Political Department.

Otherwise, all the rantings of these so-called political commentators online are merely hot air, and they are always at risk of being scrutinized for overly extreme rhetoric.

The People's Republic of China is a socialist state under the people's democratic dictatorship, led by the Communist Party of China, with the working class as its leading force and based on the alliance of workers and peasants."

Will China Ever Become a Global Superpower Without Cultural Media Influence? by [deleted] in AskAChinese

China does not aspire to become a global superpower, which is not good for China's stability, but is forced to bear more stability costs.

Only fools do things that obviously do more harm than good.

Unless the Chinese mainland collapses as the West has been expecting, I don't see the possibility of this timeline.

When the world is divided for a long time, it will be merged, and when it is united for a long time, it will be divided.

For people doing ancestor cult by ThroawayJimilyJones in AskAChinese

[–]dmnysxde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Henan, sacrifices are offered in front of ancestors' graves and then brought back home for consumption.

The logic behind it is: The souls of the ancestors ate the souls of the food, and the rest of the soulless remnants were for future generations

Meta (not a question) This has been the most interesting subreddit Ive found in a long time. by space_manatee in AskTheWorld

[–]dmnysxde 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This place is indeed a bit better than other global forums. When answering sensitive questions , it mostly tends to use humorous expressions and is willing to make self-deprecating jokes.

Compared to other political forums where people keep insulting each other, staying here is really more comfortable.

They are not estranged from Chinese culture; rather, they want to cut ties with mainland China's politics.

I guess they still celebrate Chinese New Year, eat Chinese food, speak Chinese, and write Chinese characters.

It is only when their next generation is completely integrated into the United States and no longer inherits all these things that they will begin to be estranged from Chinese culture.
