Xi Jinping to UN General Assembly: "Democracy is not special right reserved for an individual country"

[retaxis]

Han population isn't growing anymore, in fact, it's all the rural minorities that are growing.
In fact, Inner Mongolia might get into trouble if Beijing gets weakened, just as the Manchu before with the Ming.

But honestly, I won't touch much into chinese internal politics, I don't think anybody here knows the situation on the ground.

In the past even when China was fractured into 20 different countries. the smallest Chinese country still controlled Vietnam lol. So there is no way that any Chinese territory is ever taken away by a few terrorists

Han population can grow if China wants it to grow. It doesn't grow because of the 1 child policy which is now reversed. if China wants Chinas population to be 3billion it can in a short period of time. Xinjiang will end up like Inner Mongolia overnight if China wants it to be that way.

Well, if you say so.
Japan, Korea, China all wanted their population to grow, it's not as easy as you think.
It mainly has to do with lack of guaranteed housing and highly paid jobs and lack of overwork, which are big issues in all the East Asian countries.

Have you ever thought about it. Now Uighur play square-dance, play tiktok, speak Mandarin, watch Han nationality movies and TV series. What's the difference between them and Han people? And a hundred years later?
My Hui classmates drink beer and eat pork, so they are already a branch of the Han nationality, Han Muslims.

Well, An Lushan was like that too and until he saw a good Han woman (Yang Guifei) and went unga bunga.
And the mongols.
And the manchu.

It all depends on the central chinese authority, if it's weakened, you will see who's gold and who's stone.

This problem is not so easy to solve. The decrease and aging of the Han population is inevitable. Of course, the aging of Japan and South Korea is worse than ours.

The United States 20 to 30 years ago was more attractive to Chinese people. Today, the United States is a joke in the eyes of many Chinese people.

Has the US system changed? not at all.

Therefore, it is of little significance to compare countries simply from the institutional perspective.

There is no bigger meme than democracy.
But I do believe China is more democratic because factionalism in China is stronger than the US, US is literally two puppet parties.

Xi is right. He is a copy of Mao. Every body notices he loves Mao suit?
Mao means the world will become a peaceful place if all become a communist paradise of chinese variant.
Seriously, Mao exported communism to Africa, Asia. He went so far to risk a nuclear war with USSR.
Xi is just a cheap copy.

I wouldn't argue that China is more democratic than the US as it is clearly not by any western democracy definition. It has never pretended to be from the founding of PRC. It achieves its representation of people via its ruling party Chinese Communist Party. The most appealing evidence of such representation is the significant improvement of social and economical standard for all Chinese citizens. I don't know any evidence can be stronger than that in any debate of political system. China, as a nation and civilization, couldn't care less whether it political system is approved by the developed countries and all the rest as long as it delivers the progress we are after.

It is interesting that many in developing countries believe so strongly that western style democracy and free market will lead to national prosperity. There is nothing can be more wrong about this belief. I do agree that it is suitable for developed countries as they have already reached industrialization therefore it provides the kind of steady state they need. The developing ones requires significant social and economic restructure to set them up for real development, something difficult if not impossible to achieve with western style democracy.

forced to dance?
I'm afraid you don't know what popular dance is.

If American Muslims play rap, is it forced to play rap?



This is square dance, that is, dancing in the square. This is a dance from the Han area. Uighurs also like it. Do you know why it is popular? Because there are too many squares in China.
You think they were forced to dance?
