主题:人艰不拆讲笑话之三 -- 骨头龙
LOL. The Chinese government is actually far more honest about this sort of things than the Main Stream Media in the West.
It calls its own propaganda department the Ministry of Propaganda instead of Global News Outlet or White House Briefing. It tells you outright that it’s telling you their point of view. It never claims to be anything else.
It teaches all kids, as early as the seventh grade, that laws are made by the ruling class for its benefit, leveraging State Violence to achieve its goals. Remember this ’cause you’ll be tested on it! It doesn’t tell you that laws are made to benefit everybody equally. In the West, some people eventually realize that the rich with a good lawyer can do almost anything, and the poor with no money can do nothing. Some people never figure that out. They call their legal system the “Law System”. We call ours the “Justice System”.
By the time you enter high school, the Chinese would have textbooks teaching you that the Police and the Army are Instrument of State Violence, rebellions are mostly reasonable things to do. Starting a Revolution is the most patriotic thing to do, if you represent the interest of the majority of the people. We’d label it “un-American” and “treason” for even thinking about that sort of things.
The Chinese tell their people that the legitimacy of a government comes from its commitment to Majority Interest. Like at least 90% of the people. Not the interest of PART(-y) of the people, but the vast majority of the people. We tell our voters that winner-take-all and screw the other party is what democracy is all about. So - have the citizens of Democrat persuasion stopped paying taxes or stopped being citizens after the Republican Party won, or what?
China is not the country who’s galloping on its ways to 1984. It’s not the one who calls domestic surveillance “Patriot Act”, taking away healthcare for millions of people as “the World’s Greatest Healthcare Plan”, monetary disputes with trading partners as “National Security Risk”, invasion of some random country as “Self Defense”, and installation of puppets as “Freedom”. Orwell himself probably would view those terms as too much of an exaggeration to be written into a novel.
The novel 1984 doesn’t even go as far as the official Chinese education itself, frankly. It’s pretty astonishing the kind of shit the Chinese government put into their official textbooks and painstakingly make sure every Chinese understand. In other countries all of those would be banned as “incitement and sedition”.
