During the U.S.-China ministerial meeting, the diplomatic officials of the two countries displayed their different cultural qualities in full.
Yang Jiechi was still playing the cliché that “Chinese people are still angry with foreigners”, accusing Americans of being “condescending”, denouncing that the United States has no right to accuse Beijing of human rights violations, and saying “Chinese people don’t eat this”. “.
National inferiority complex, Chinese delusions of persecution
The official media found old photos of Li Hongzhang signing the “Xinchao Treaty” with the Eight-Power Allied Forces 120 years ago and compared them with photos of the U.S.-China talks to stir up national emotions. The old hatred and the new hatred are intertwined, and the Chinese are no longer angry and want to “level” with American imperialism.
What will the Chinese eat? What do they want?
The Chinese Communist Party has always regarded the century-old national shame as a tool to rally the people and incite nationalism, but it has made the sense of national inferiority deep in people’s hearts. Once they have a dispute with a foreign government, they immediately associate it with being bullied, with the imperialists’ desire to kill me, and with the struggle for your Life and mine.
Behind the paranoia of persecution, there is another mentality, which can be called “the paranoia of the Chinese and overseas”. Because the Chinese were once “broad”, all the nations came to China and were worshipped by their descendants for a thousand years, the Chinese will always cherish the spirit of looking down on the East and the West, and the world was theirs alone. The two deformed mentality coexist for years, intensifying each other, so that the Chinese people will always be tangled with foreign dealings.
If the U.S. empire is determined to kill us, why didn’t the Americans step in and bring down the Communist Party when it was faltering after the Cultural Revolution? On the contrary, once the Chinese Communist Party implemented reform and opening up, the U.S. fully supported it, accepting a large number of Chinese students, investing in China, lending money to China, exporting high technology, assisting the Chinese Communist Party to join the United Nations, granting the Chinese Communist Party most favored nation status, promoting the Chinese Communist Party to join the WTO, etc., saving the Chinese Communist Party from the fire. Without the assistance of the United States, it is questionable whether the CCP would be where it is today, or whether it would have recovered in a short period of Time. That’s why Deng Xiaoping said, “All countries that have good relations with the United States are rich” and “Only when the U.S.-China relations are good”.
At that time, why not say “do not eat the foreigners that way”?
120 years ago, when China signed the Treaty of Xin Chou with the Eight-Power Allied Forces (the cause of the incident was the indiscriminate killing of foreigners), the U.S. government did not take a penny of the war reparations paid by China, but used it all to help build hospitals and schools in China. When the two parties were fighting for the world, the U.S. advocated that the Communist Party should rule from across the river and negotiate a democratic system. China would not be the same today if the United States had taken advantage of China’s crisis and dropped the ball.
The Rise of China: Looking Down on Other Countries and Enjoying Vanity
Before Yang Jiechi said these words, did he ever reflect on what the Chinese Communist Party did to the United States? The Chinese Communist Party has helped the Chinese Communist Party to get rid of poverty, but the Chinese Communist Party has returned the favor by forcing technology transfer, stealing scientific and technological information, and engaging in united warfare and cultural infiltration in the United States; the Chinese Communist Party has bribed small and medium-sized countries to weaken the influence of the United States in international organizations, and has used money diplomacy to dig into the walls of the United States in Central and South America, and even influenced the domestic political ecology of the United States by various means.
Successive U.S. presidents have tolerated the CCP for a long time, and even after June 4, 1989, the U.S. slowly repaired the normal relationship between the two countries until today’s situation – is the U.S. still angry with the CCP? If the U.S. rises up today, it is the Chinese Communist Party that is to blame.
The people of Hong Kong have accepted British rule for a hundred years, and not only has Hong Kong not become a hell on earth, but under British administration, it has become the only free and happy land in the land of China. Hong Kong people do not have the paranoia of being persecuted, nor do they have the paranoia of being a part of the Chinese Empire and overseas. Hong Kong people have a balanced mentality and get along with all governments and people of the world on an equal footing.
China has been humiliated for a hundred years and is used to looking up to the Western powers. Now that it is strong, it wants to enjoy the glory of looking down on other countries, which is a combination of “persecution delusion” and “heavenly power plus overseas delusion”. The Chinese need to cure their own psychological disease before they can talk about equality with the rest of the world, and only then can they stand as a decent and powerful nation in the world.
Only a system that is in line with human nature can last in the world. Universal values are in line with human nature and represent the trend of historical development. Socialism with Chinese Communist characteristics has brought the Chinese people a serious disparity between the rich and the poor, a tyranny fiercer than a tiger, and a retrogression of human civilization. The nationalistic exuberance incited by Yang Jiechi will only aggravate the psychological ailment of Chinese people.
China must not rely on money or force, but on the common mind of ordinary people, if it is to level with the world. =
