kinda weird the amount of hate the CCP gets on this app I’ll talk more about this when I get back home from China but basically I think it’s extremely optimistic to have this much fear/hate for a countries govt and to not think that any of that spills over onto Chinese(or Asian) people

Bigoted people will always find reasons to justify their bigotry. This doesn't mean we shouldn't call out genocide, violations of intl law, and threats of invasion of our allies.

Am I missing some deeply racist dark corner of Farcaster? Contextually this feels like a friendly fire situation. Web3 community is inherently pro-decentralization and all governments are based on varying degrees of centralized command. The best part of every country and the worst part of every government is its people

To be fair, I’ve seen and experienced a rapid rise in Asian hate crimes since Covid. Wouldn’t say that hate against CCP doesn’t create similar issues, given what happened in the US with Japanese Americans during WWII. However, the narrative has always remained the same for any global superpower. (Continued)

Why is it optimistic to separate the gov and people. If it’s not a democracy then aren’t they literally separate?

It’s always the people that suffer or live in denial when it comes to oppressive governments. I’m Taiwanese. While it’s not formally recognized as a country—it’s a fully democratic society with its own elected officials, currency, systems, culture, and people…real people with our own ways of living.

Caution: don’t mistake critique for hate. China’s greater Bay Area has outpaced most every country in innovation (patents, transportation, RE) with city GDPs topping Canada and the UK now. Incredibly impressive. Their speed trains operate as interconnected notes that the US won’t have until 2590 (if ever).

Key thing few in the US appreciate is that the CCP is responsible for the largest reduction in extreme poverty in history. Everyone 50+ remembers being really poor. https://ourworldindata.org/poverty
