Strictly enforced in urban area, rural area is another story
Correct, unfortunately
Errr....I have met Americans who are arrogant (pointing out culture clash), that does not make me think "typically" Americans are arrogant, if I think that way, it would make me a racist
Did I just mention I have met some Americans who are arrogant in my previous reply? LOL, here is an example.
I am sure you have not been to Europe or Africa or Asia
But no worries, again, this does NOT make me think typically Americans are arrogant.
Care to explain how I misled people?
Part that and part of the Chinese culture where a family has to have a son to continue the family line, which to me is silly
Apologies accepted, and sorry for derailing the topic as well. Thanks for your clarification on the matter, I might have overreated as well, sorry about that
China has poor labor standards and manipulates their currency. As a result, Chinese do much of the dirty work for the rest of the world. If you think that's about race, that's your own problem to deal with
Since when does appeal to emotion change the outcome of cold logic? The court might find me not guilty, but yes I'd be the murderer. Die or kill, if you choose kill, you can't say you didn't kill.
that's a ton of post after a post after a post. dude @zhuanyi please use the edit :P
Poor labor standard, agreed, in some places, because there are too many people.
Manipulates currency: Mmm...I guess Feds will claim their QE and QE2 are not currency manipulation?
Not knowing a country a lot is one thing, but by just watching CNN and thinking all Chinese are assholes is completely something else
I always quoted the specific post I am replying to in this thread?
I know China as well as an outsider can. Can't fault me for having something to say about it without changing the direction of my life for it alone, or else none of us would be allowed opinions or statements on many things very relevant to the world around us.
Sure, you are allowed to have your opinions (and I respect that), and just like you, I am allowed to have mine and I am sure we can talk about it when our opinions defer? No?
Honestly, I am not here to open a communist propaganda shop, just hope to explain some myth about China.

Out of pure curiosity, why choose CO as your jurisdiction, being from HI
Because colorado is a kick-ass state.
@HC_Ro - I'm from Colorado originally, I'm stationed in the Navy in Hawaii.
As I explained above, number of native speakers of a language is a very poor measure of a language's influence, or geographical usage.
All negatives about China is all I see in this thread. Fact is, China pwning western countries atm... They are not the ones in debt crises... US and EU is...
BTW, I am not Chinese but I can speak Cantonese
Human rights.
Rebuttal? Didn't think so.
Where is the human rights when US drones kill people without trial. Nobody talks about that.
@n0my Yes they do. A ton of people talk about that. One must be perfect before pointing out flaws in another? Yeah, that's a great philosophy for bettering our world. For the record, I didn't vote for drones, so does that give me the license to talk about china?
I think people should try to fix their own flaws before they try to find flaws in the others.
@n0my So I should perfect all legislative actions in the U.S., not even being a politician, before I can open my mouth about women and children being raped and sold to slavery in other countries(we're not even talking china now, but basic morality)? Got it. I'll remember that next time.
Nope. Why should that be? You can also go ahead and criticize my country. But keep in mind that China is 10 times worse.
"Do as I say, not as I do"
@jarland you can see that you didn't supported actions by your government yet still it happens. So I think most Chinese people didn't support the 1 child policy too but it still happens
@n0my You're right. I didn't support my government's wrong actions, they didn't support theirs (over 70% agree with the policy but lets not get hung up on questionable statistics), so you can talk about my government and I can't talk about anyone else's because one has to live in a fairy land filled with daisies and sunshine prior to gaining the right to speak out against injustices outside of their nation, unless they're not from America.
Sorry, I didn't see it before, but your logic is flawless. I feel dumber for having actually compiled your logic and repeating it.
You can criticise all you want but I don't find it constructive. I think you will offend people more that way than to help them fix it. Unless you talk to the Chinese Regime directly that's a different story (Doubt they would listen though). I am not questioning your freedom of speech buddy.
