The US Capitol and other conflicts, the inside of the situation is still pointed out that many questions. Including allegations that some of the demonstrators who broke into the Senate had direct ties to Antifa. While official media such as the Communist Party’s Huanqiu.com and Xinhua reported the violent protests in the United States on Thursday in an effort to shore up public support for the authorities, there were plenty of calmer voices in China. Some scholars believe that China’s social system cannot be compared with that of the United States.
China’s official media are rare to report high-profile clashes in the US Capitol. Several official media began to report the clashes in Washington, DC, in real time since the night of the 6th, and reported the situation of protesters breaking into and storming the Capitol building by telephone several times.
Among them, CCTV net short commentary of the title, is “the mob hit the Capitol Hill, American democracy failed!”
From the early hours of this Thursday morning, the “global network” has been continuously updating the US Capitol with live news, including the US protesters storming the Capitol, one shot dead, and the expressions of concern from leaders of many countries.
According to Free Asia, the website sends out between 13 and 20 instant news articles an hour about conflicts in the United States, including foreign diplomats condemning the violence.
According to Free Asia, so-called think-tanks in Zhongnanhai see turmoil in the United States as an opportunity for the Communist Party. Online writers, commonly known as “Fifty Cents,” use this to promote the supposed superiority of China’s social system and undermine the American democratic system.
But there are also sober voices among Chinese folk.
Zha Jianguo, an independent scholar in Beijing, said in an interview that he had noticed the demonstrations in the United States: “Some Chinese have taken this opportunity to attack the social order, the democratic process in the United States. I think the US and China are completely different political systems. The question of whether China has democracy or not is whether ordinary people have the right to demonstrate. There is no such right in China. The United States is a question of how to do better with democracy.”
An anonymous Internet user revealed that China has finally caught a handle to criticize the American system, and started the public opinion machine to report or criticize the social chaos in the United States. Propaganda officials even asked the media at all levels to comment on the chaos caused by the US presidential election.
Li Xiangqun, a middle school teacher in Beijing, said China’s system lags far behind that of the United States, and if this happened in China, the consequences would be severe: “We have a centralized system and strict behavior control. It’s impossible to have something like this. If you really attack these important departments, you will have to shoot them. In the United States, I have also read the reports from different angles, and of course from a political point of view, like the episode of ‘House of Cards,’ it can all be manipulated and exploited, because under U.S. law, when a police officer is attacked, they have the right to shoot.”
Ding Jie, an independent scholar in Hebei province, says the US political system has a strong ability to repair itself, but some authoritarian countries do not have the ability to repair themselves, so they collapse. “They are unity under high pressure, huge internal pressure that is concealed. You have the Ciousses regime, the Soviet Union, the Gadhafi regime, they all fell overnight, “he said.
