Top Comments of this video!! :3
As a Chinese educated both in China and in western worlds, the more videos I watch about analysis of China on youtube, the more I understand it's nearly impossible for westerners to understand it. China is a whole different world. Each and every bit of its structure is anti intuitional for western mindsets, cuz there are so many concepts that are not even in western dictionary.
Also Chinese society has extremely high complexity that one would understand naturally only if one was born in China or know complex Chinese language and stayed in China for years.
Before my overseas studies in US Australia France and UK, I didn't realize I knew nothing about my country since I lived in a small town. Now after years of travel around the globe, accepting comments, praises and criticism over China, I decided to come back with pride. My country is soooo wonderful! If I have a next life, I want to be a Chinese again! š And I'm certain that most Chinese people, especially those who had overseas experiences, has the same feelingšØš³šØš³šØš³

Deng Xiaoping once said: doesnāt matter if itās a black cat or a white cat, as long as it can catch mice, itās a good cat. That solved the problem of calling it socialism or capitalism. Nowadays they just call it socialism with Chinese characteristics (this terminology is not to be taken lightly, itās also in the constitution)

Hi thanks for your excellent and highly insightful piece of history related video essay. Just one minor suggestion for future videos - you might want to consider putting year stamps in the upper left corner of the video so that readers can easily grasp the timeline and context of the events as you narrate them, I believe it would easily double the impact of your videos. Looking forward to your next video! Cheers.

If you look at the Chinese history over thousands of years, it has been ruled by a dynasty and the emperor, where a dynasty and the emperor changed over the years. Till today it is still the same but in the modern setting. This has been the Chinese way of government. Whether it is good or bad, let history decide on it.

As someone who was born and raised in China, had lived in HK and the US for quite some time before finally returning to China, I must say that China has a much different system than your typical 'communist' countries during the cold War. China has embraced much of the market-based economy doctrine, and a lot of its creativity and productivity today are driven by the needs of the market, and that's how it's economy has been booming in the last few decades. Of course the regime is far from perfect, and a lot of the typical elements of 'human rights' protrayed by the West might be missing here. But the Chinese people care the most about whether their life is constantly improving, one area where this current regime didn't fail its people. Under that premise, we don't care as much whether we have 'freedom of speech' or 'free media' or other things (although they'll be nice to have along the way). In general, people are largely supportive of this imperfect regime, as it has successfully and drastically improved the economy and people's quality of life in the past decades.

Unlike Russia, China revamped their economic system first, which has allowed their single party system to continue.
