I noticed that too about the subtitles. But hey, Thanks for fixing that.
No worries
This is awesome, I wanna see more from the Chinese perspective. Great job Asian Boss!
Chinese know the advantages and disadvantages of the WEST & China very well, neutral. So many Chinese have been to the United States. But Americans only know the disadvantages of China (Except for WEST guys who have been to China) ,They never know What is the real China? Because the mainstream media in the WEST only reports the disadvantages of China.(maybe 95%)
& Then the western media said that Chinese r Thought closed... That's so so funny
Chinese have a clear mind. It's clear who am I? What is the west? What is democracy and freedom? They know why they don't use the system of Western democracy. They use their own social system. They Know How should they go in the future??(Even western media often accuse China of not implementing the western social system. The WEST thought they r The king, if u don't follow the WEST system, then u r evil. Actually, Singapore has proved that there is still a good society without the system of Western democracy )
"Any rich man can become president" This makes me cry and laugh at the same time.
elmohead chinese people laugh too ..it's sarcasm for "democracy" in the US
This quote might be too general. People can buy their way into a political party but usually the most sensible gets elected. Americans didn't have much to pick from last election either, to be fair.
Bernie would have won.
CCP Propaganda. Trump made it through a field of 16 candidates. The richest person rarely wins in American democracy. Mitt Romney’s wealth was regularly cited as a reason for him being evil and out of touch with common folks. It works more as a negative than a positive.
Taka Masuda disagree. With wealth comes money to campaign and be supported by businesses who give you even more money.
"Any rich man can become the US president" lol
Any US presidents came from the poverty class?
Undoubtedly
@@user-tr4by5fb7o barack obama, bill clinton, ronald reagan, to name some. Maybe not real poverty class but stil not rich at all
Mr NixxxoN He means the capitalists control your political system,they only speak for Wall Street.
Anyone one in general can become president
After spending time in China I was pleasantly surprised at how well their system works. I actually felt much safer in China than most other countries I've visited.
thank you.
frogz me too I’m Chinese btw
Of course its safe, because they are extremely tough on crime. China is a totalitarian regime that executes more people than any other nation..
So you are saying being tough on crime/wrong-doings is not acceptable?
It’s safe because people are afraid of the state.
the guy in a red jacket is very aware of the reality
I agree. Most of his answers seem insightful & were spot on.
These were actually very thoughtful responses, they weighed pros and cons and saw the benefits of both sides.
I feel like everywhere I go on youtube, the people who read my replies, aren't like that. People automatically assume I mean the worse...
"Trump is a dictator" is NOT thoughtful.
There exist cultural lags since east and west cultures are so different. The girl's saying is more like he is not so democratic since his decisions in politics and such is not friendly to all people. I personally think there's nothing wrong about it. Trump strongly refuse to obey lots of international agreements and he just doesn't seem to be cooperative to other countries. (Especially economically)
It would seem their culture is more oriented towards the pragmatic, as opposed to the American trend to uphold the ideal.
+Wang Gary Right, because China never disobeys international agreements *cough* South China Sea *cough*
Also, would you consider China's weak enforcement against foreign intellectual property theft to be economically "cooperative to other countries"?
I'm baffled! I was expecting them to be more negative towards the US, but I was wrong.
I suppose Americans are more negative towards China, though.
Yeah, ignorance is real
Lol most probably because shanghai is not exactly like northern Chinese... Only northern Chinese cares more about everything and want themselves to be number 1
Fortunately, American media really likes to make America look good.
You expect them to be negative because, contrary to the idea that Chinese people are brainwashed in someway to be negative towards the US, is the people of the West are truly brainwashed about China.
Shadeprint not really. Both sides think America is garbage, for the exact opposite reasons. Which makes no sense, but everyone likes to gripe, moan, and complain.
As an American and a former Servicemember, I have been to many countries tries around the world. People are the same everywhere. They want their kids to grow up to a better life than they had. They want access to basic human essentials like food and clean water, and education. They just want to be able to live their lives as best ad they can. This is a universal truth, and Chinese people are no different, we should not be so afraid of them for trying to make their world a better place.
great point sexton! However we must understand why today's society is so divided, and that is because people dont understand eachother. For people like you who have been to many countries, we are able to view the world in a higher perspective. Unlike those who listen to other new's media's opinions, they are too lazy to find out the world's wonderfulness.
Great point!!
Mate america is the one that makes the world to go away from China or scared! But thank god ! America is falling , and China is rising , 98% of the world problems are from America ! You are the sickness of humanity
The biggest issue is trust. Are you going to trust that they wont backstab/break your relationship?
These Chinese people are so knowledgeable and respectful. Meanwhile, many 'educated' people in the west are saying: China? Uh? What is it? Where is it? Is Hong Kong the Capital of Japan? LOL
China is most known by westerners. Whenever someone says asia
The first thing we think of when people say Asia, is China.
Spend sometime with Chinese people and you’ll realize it’s no different, just your biases are
This people is from the very rich and educated part of china i have lived one year in china and most people outside the major cities is not like them
@ Im a african american living in the south, sounds like something someone from california or the north would say.
I was born and grown in China. I can say this video is pretty much unbiased. Good job. I graduated from university in the US, and I'm working here too. I have many good American friends. To be honest, I'm disappointed with how little and biased my friends know about China. Ignorance and being lack of awareness put you in danger.
Our media in the west censors news about China.
Stupid Asian boss youtube chanel,
China is trying to push america out of east asia where there is american allies such as south korea and Japan. Like what is happening in South China Sea where there would be no freedom of navigation if there was no american presence. China is also buying up Australia and Europe to push american from its long standing historical allies.
China is no better than Nazi germany or even worse. Remember the red revolution in china. that is real china in their beliefm theory and practice. Countries like korea, vietname, japan, philiphines have a really hostile view of china. no wonder why. we must fight chinese expansion other wise, we will die.
Yung Kim bruh, u are so funny to me. Chinese’s views on America people have been changed because people like you. When I was young, I remember all my friends(Chinese) like America a lot, they think America is a country of opportunities, freedom and love. But now people in America start to have negative views on Chinese and even start being racist. Many Chinese have saw these through internet, so their views on America has changed from peace to hate.

Some of what was said was unfortunately translated imprecisely and it made some Chinese in the video seem ruder and less polite than they really were, but thank you for sharing in either case.
Totally agree..most of them so decent when speak of America.
when he say 沒有啊 it translate to; of course not! which seems wrong
控制别人 (control/manage others) became take control of the world.

Quanxiang Loo well that is more or less the same thing
I'm impressed by all of the responses. They seem to know more about the US than a lot of Americans.

@@dansmith9770 Chile anyways there’s Chinese humans in these comments too 💀✋🏻
No they don't
In my opinion and from what I saw, on the video, they are very diplomatic, polite, intelligent, mature, honest, open minded, and understanding. They came across as very wise. I did not find anything they said as being rude or offensive. They, to me sounded very reasonable.
As a white American man, I am glad that this information is available now. Wow. I learned a lot more about how the Chinese people think. I also love that this is a great way to bring the cultures together. We have differences for sure, but we also have a curiosity for each other and that is way better.
Yeah, we g2 be open minded. It's my 7th year in the US now, there are still many classmates asking me questions like "do you guys have McDonald, Starbucks and etc" in a pretty high ranked college. I wonder what were we actually learning in high schools and colleges. These should be places where new ideas are accepted, but mostly I see misunderstanding, arrogance and ignorance, and many are even proud of being that way. Besides, seeing 2016 election process myself, I deeply feel the press is not free anymore, as president Trump said it is controlled by the establishments and it only informs what it wants people to know, such as Chinese eating dogs :) Not much better from Chinese controlled press- that they only report massive shooting in USA.
Nevertheless, I have to point out, these people are well educated and live in Shanghai, the largest city in mainland. They are absolutely a minority group of China, and one of the guys even said he had been living in the states before. The general public in inland are very closed minded, and most of them are not informed.
We both have a long long way to go. Anyways, I wish both countries be good, and every one have a good holiday season. :)
I agree, greylock1959. This sort of documentary is invaluable for giving both cultures an opportunity to understand more about each other without heavy handed propaganda influence in the form of media outlets and comment trolls whose purpose appears to be to keep people in a state of constant division. Sorry for the long winded sentence.
To be more succinct, keep up the good work, Asian Boss!
Oh, and by the way; I'm an old white guy who resides in Texas. As far as I know, most Americans don't dislike immigrants, but they do dislike people who enter the country in an irresponsible manner. Doing so is, at best, a sign of disrespect.
Expanding upon that, the spirit of racism knows no political boundaries or skin tones. All it knows is evil as it represents fear.
The translation is imprecise
I sorta think China banning FB, Twitter and stuff like that really blocked a lot of these conversations. They are really meaningful.
Harrison Yin, I appreciate your comments and perspective...
The guy with the most negative view of US is the only one who had stayed in US...
It is shit. I flew an ocean away to escape. please, save my family.
so true
LOL, I noticed that too. He clearly did not have a good experience. I wonder where he lived in the U.S.
And yet millions more of them found great success in America. He's just a jealous failure.
KiloByte from what I've seen he doesn't seem to be too jealous of living in America
As a European i love China, very much lovely smart Peoples
But the serious problem is the western media always have a biased and negative attitude towards china on purpose for everything which leads the public generating anti-china emotion. Also, anti-china is seen as the political correctness in western value.
@@ericwayne1491 come on dude it's a positive comment, don't ruin it with a paragraph about western countries having a negative attitude towards China
thanks 💖
@@ericwayne1491 I’m not saying China’s bad for everything but they do have concentration camps and try to censor all of their citizens

台灣叔叔說的有些道理：「美國不是我們東方人的地方」我是美籍華人，英文比中文好。有很多美國不同種族的朋友在洛杉磯。但是去到華人少的地方會看到奇怪眼色 - 那種「你來我們白人的地方幹嘛」的眼色。就算我們再努力貢獻給美國，我們永遠是二等公民。那些第三第四代的遠東亞洲人，包括中國，日本，韓國，半句他們祖宗的話都不會說，還是被認為是外國人。我們需要一直要找公平的待遇，找自己真正的歸屬感，擋歧視。

Probably the best outlet for Americans to understand Asain culture and become more aware and educated. This is a great median between the East and the West.
The House of Stark Really? THE best outlet? A fair YT channel yes, but I'd generally suggest people to just.. go read some articles and books or watch a documentary, not watch 7 minute street interviews on Asian Boss.
Storge I've read a lot of books regarding China and how they have a large college educated populace but have trouble with the job placement because the market is very competitive. Coming from a military standpoint I've also read a lot that Chinese Commanders feel that war between the US and China is inevitable.
I'm a strong proponent for the basic men and women of both countries expressing de-escalation views. Asian boss may not be all encompassing but I do not want it to be. A basic insight into the daily lives of people is actually incredibly healthy and American Media can learn a lot from it.
iFoRMaTioN1 hey I stand with you against bad stereotypes. I can honestly say I've never met an Asian that I've had a bad experience with. Perhaps I'm fortunate, but I also think judgment should passed on people based solely on that individuals words and actions. Nothing else determines wither a person is good or bad
+iFoRMaTioN1 Looks to me like you're the one who's stereotyping, racist Chicom.
I happen to agree with you, Stark. Most Asian's I've met/talked to have been perfectly polite, civil people. I have also met a few total assholes. Like you said - they are all individuals and need to be treated as such. Not all whites are racist assholes. Not all blacks are stupid. Not all hispanics are lazy, etc. These are all stupid stereotypes made by lazy minded people who are unwilling to think or learn.
I agree with you that if we could get everyone from every country to travel more, we might be able to break these ridiculous ideas about each other.
Smart Chinese people
ertugrul demirel Very Smart
As long as I can use what's app I don't care
I'm from the US and work for an ESL teaching company in Beijing. I speak with parents and students in China everyday. I really enjoy teaching these students English, and cannot wait to go visit China!
Welcome to China❤️❤️❤️
Love USA from China🇨🇳❤️🇺🇸
This was absolutely wonderful. Thanks for posting and I subscribed!
Omg that's the cutest mic ever
Heheheheh
cat true
The Chinese perspective is fairly accurate. As an American I agreed with a lot of what was said.
Our democracy is suffering though. Human rights are becoming an issue in regards to new policies. I'm hoping we can turn it around before it gets too out of hand but who knows. Lots of things have happened that many Americans thought could never be acceptable in this day and age.
They were definitely more open-minded than I expected they'd be.
@10 No, as a person who's been out of country, people tend to have a biased opinion of America in certain countries. China being a country we could realistically find ourselves in a war with makes me surprised they don't try harder to set a hostile view of us. Don't try to be a smart ass and make the "Haha, stupid American" argument. There isn't even Western propoganda, I can't ever recall a time I've seen anything saying something against Asia or any of the countries in it.

This was impressive thanks asian boss and good job with the interviews!!!
As an American I'm very happy to hear that ordinary Chinese people seem to mostly have a positive view of the US and Americans.
cslam0929, It's not their people Americans are critical of. It's their government.
Thats true
Chinese media didn’t make such huge fake news like USA and west media made
why do americans hate china? :(
hi Adelene No, the rich minority is just the loudest and they are racist. Remember that we have a lot of Asian people living with us. I had a Chinese friend in school. There is a problem though, China is fairly closed off to interactions with Americans because you guys had a lot of sites blocked. Personally I think it is a way to keep us from interacting and realizing that the elite of both of our countries are always using propaganda to make the other look bad. If both populations were able to interact, we would see this. We are doing our best to get Trump out of office at the moment. It doesn’t look like it is going to happened but at the least it looks like he will be impeached.
Wow these answers were so insightful.
As a native chinese myself, most of the views are just the same as I thought about either America or our country.
That’s because it’s Shanghai. Go outside the major cities and you will see half the county lives in poverty and are uneducated.
Cheryl lin
not uneducated as you
Indeed. Also, I hope these peoples who said to wanting more freedom won't get arrested or anything, esp that young man voice up about freedom of press etc. The ruling communist party seems to have a hard on about this kind of thing and will do anything in its power to destroy it.
+Cheryl lin
Well, Chinese people are definitely more educated than you, still living in the past lol.
The poverty rate of China is now less than 6.5 percent
I’m pleasantly surprised and impressed with how well-informed and articulate these people were.
Thank you for making this series! I am American, and it is very interesting to me to see others' opinions about Americans.
Man... I really hope we never go to war with these people. They seem so loving and kind. It would be such a stupid thing to do... 😥

Most people in the world dont like war, so do i.
Great job.... interview more people outside of SHANGHAI... and a slightly less upscale types. But great work none the less.
I would be embarrassed to see a similar interview on the streets of a large American city.... ignorance here about China is deep; but with your work helps mitigate this.
Carlos Aguilar well said
Well most cities are like Shanghai, and most rural area people don't care much about western countries that much because they can't afford to go there. Half of the population lives in urban area where information is abundant and half are not. Though I can tell you most students and scholars went to the US will start to have a less delusional view about western country and realize western countries have as many problem as China. Still, it is almost impossible for China to have the same quality of life as in western country. And China's influence will unlikely surpass the US in the next 3 decades.
I think they are a selected interviewees. Not every Chinese now about the details of Mr. Trumps governing style, etc. But I bet it would be a lot harder editing work to get similar knowledgable responses in the US.
It starts already with many Americans thinking Asia = China.
Peter Kroll Actually when the US election was ongoing, Chinese websites were filled with news and commentaries related. Most Chinese except those poorest and uneducated will definitely know something about Trump. And these interviewees just give a normal answer shared by a lot of middle class Chinese, not particularly insightful at all.
If you did the same in the US you might better be prepared for a surprise.
"Not a good place for asians" I'm actually an Italian with an American Citizenship I feel sorry for Asians being discriminated in this country. My Asian employees are experiencing harassment due to CoVid and racist people put the blame on them.
Thank you for sharing. It was awesome to see what we look like to other cultures. Great idea!!
Great job!!! As an american that has lived and worked in china for 5 years, I believe what they say is about 99% true , the one thing I found in my years in China is that the common people are very much like the common people of the USA, As an 57 year old male, that loves his country very much, if i did not live in the USA I would live in China ! Americans reading this please listen, you will never know the real China buy reading about if or hearing about China from someone that has never been there, You want to know China?? visit China for yourself ! then you will know the real China and will love it the way i do !
John Pinckley Welcome more friends to China. CHINA really is a good place to live. I mean "live".

+Jeff Zhao The election of Trump proves you wrong. There is enormous amount of skepticism building against the MSM in America.
Oh, ok.
As a Canadian I am surrounded by Chinese people and all I can say is they're very friendly. Since I'm from Toronto I'd meet more Chinese from Beijing, Shanghai or Guanxi. Chinese and Canadians work hard together but I am not all well known about most of USA's politics. Tbh USA politics just hurts my head and I even don't pay attention to my own politics in Canada lol
You sure they aint just regular canadians lmfao.
I mean he’s from Toronto 😂
canada simps for the US, not gonna lie if US isnt giving China a hard time rnow imma say canada and china may be friends
Welcome to China❤️❤️❤️
Love Canada from China🇨🇳❤️🇨🇦
These young people are very well informed and articulate. As an American, I really appreciated their points of view. They are really knowledgeable about America and our politics and culture.
I studied in Shanghai for a decent amount of time and can tell you that Chinese people are incredibly friendly and welcoming. I have had several Chinese students say the same thing to me when they come to USA to study. The age of technology has made it easier to learn about each other's opinions and cultures. This helps to understand that we may have our differences, but we are also very much alike. This was a wonderfully entertaining and informative video to watch!
But the politicians are inciting wars and hatred. Ordinary people who want to kill others?
Welcome to China❤❤❤
Love you❤❤❤
I really like learning about the Asian cultures, and China especially. My daugjter is learning Mandarin and her plan is to go to China for university and get degrees in the Chinese languages and history. Then, she wants to stay and teach or gain other employment using her degrees. Because of this, I want to learn as much as I can so that I'm aware of the country she wants to move to and live.
where are you from?
People are not different from each other across the nation, beside different diet, language, and religions. We all have an general common sense of good and evil shared universally. Now there are radical crazy people in every corner of the earth but you know that is the norm.
Thank you.
Good luck with your daughter’s endeavors in pursuing her “Chinese dream”. China is definitely worth exploring.

Thanks for making this video. Very interesting to hear the perspective of everyday people in China. Keep up the good work!
I appreciate this channel purely for its perspective bringing. Thanks.
I just want to remind y’all that a lot of the translations did not have the same connotations as what they were speaking. There were a few times where they were saying things in a joking tone but that was lost in translation. Anyways if you read the translations, approach it with the idea that they were more polite than what was on the captions!

Thank you for that, they all seemed very polite and I felt that they were fair in their assessments/opinions.

You're right Chinese sounds to me like a whippy but flowy elegant language I also think Korean is really round & beautiful language , Japanese is really light & sound simple but has a keen flow. (I love these 3 Asian languages because it's just amazing) I also love thai but Idk how to describe it.

Thank you for this insight , very informative . I appreciate hearing from the people of China rather than the rhetoric from the press .
Wow this was actually nice to have. More of this would be welcome for sure.
As a Hongkonger (a special administrative region of China practicing Capitalism), I have to say the interviewees are very rational. Even they may hold both positive and negative impressions, they're not blindly praising or criticising. And it's a rare phenomenon in our society as people are either extremely patriotic or antagonistic. After all, we need more peaceful conversation and communication between people or even nations.
It's not that Hong Kong practices capitalism -- it's that HK practices democracy. People in HK get to vote for or against those in power in government. People in China (Mainland) do not get that same right. But, people in China (Mainland) also practice capitalism ever since 1979 or so when Deng Xiaoping opened up China and introduced free market reforms away from pure Communism where, previously under Chairman Mao, the central communist government controlled and effectively owned everything -- which was a complete disaster. Millions of Chinese people died of hunger and starvation after communist policies failed to deliver food to millions of people in the 1960s and 1970s. Now, millions of Chinese people freely trade amongst each other to capture a profit -- that's capitalism. And, capitalism is how Chinese people have lifted themselves into a new middle class over the past 40 years, despite political control by the CCP remaining in place.
These people thoughts and opinions reflect they're well-informed . I appreciate your sharing
those are just random people on street. if you talk to a taxi driver in Beijing, in most case, you will find he can be a brain trust for the president...
Most of the young generation thoughts like the video shows
As Chinese, I can say you are wrong.
谢文杰 please tell me more what is the truth I would like to visit China what is the truth ?
Roland Lowhorn Sorry. I just realized I made a mistake. I had confused you with another person. But WELCOME TO CHINA.
thanks AB - that was pretty enlightening, informative
Thank you so much for these videos! its given me much to think about!
Much more positive then I expected to be honest. That nice to hear. It’s great to see stuff like this. Nice work.
Most of the Americans I know like the Chinese. We see nothing wrong with working together to better understand one another.
Duffer Man
you don't realize that US is the reason they don't have food? lol
US is trying to dictate the world rules, the conflict with NK is the US fault. The NK was ready to stop their nuclear programs, but US decided they can demand more and broke the agreement.
Trying again saying truth? OK.
The conflict with NK is the US fault. The NK was ready to stop their nuclear programs, but US decided they can demand more and broke the agreement.
Eduard White: So what would you say to do with NK? Agreed that the american people learned decades later that the NK conflict start was made up by those who wanted money and power,But the situation is now when both sides Could work out peacefully ignoring each other. What do you suggest? Let NK governing power have all and anything they wish? NK's people need the help not the ruling class just like in the USA. ( 8 year lifetime term limits thru all levels of government with minimum wage pay(ya right good luck on that right?))
gene heard
May be you should ask NK's people before deciding the future for them. Don't you think so?
gene heard
Do you really believe that US government care about NK people? Probably they really was caring about them suggesting to erase NK from the face of the Earth together with all NK's people.
As a kid, I always believe that people will respect you as long as you also respect them. Then I come to United States to study, now I understand that it's pointless to give any respect to the people who don't even want to respect you.
Very impressive! I would love to go to Shanghai for myself.
It’s crazy bc I took chinese for 7 years and my eyes light up when I finally understand something they say 😂 but boy do I have a lot more to learn
能理解一部分已经很棒了！
没关系，don't worry.
Just go to GZ for a year if you have opportunity
@@julianjulian9973 Just curious why GZ?
This is honestly a great channel. Just not as well known as it should be. I only found out about it after looking up stuff about North Korea a few months ago...Seriously keep up the work. For most (almost all) TH-cam channels, I would never recommend advising....but if it's relatively affordable, this is a case where you should take advantage of it. I would never think to find an entire (& high quality) channel dedicated to filling the gap in communication/understanding between Asia and the Rest of the World. I had to do some specific searching to find you guys. You could make a whole damn television network on all your content. Seriously original & high quality. Keep it up.
Cool Beans agreed
Totally agree 100%. I'm glad there is a channel that dedicates their time in creating quality and MEANINGFUL content that closes miscommunication across the world. Thank you
Wow. Really cool perspectives. I'm an American and have been to China and thought it was great, particularly Shanghai. There are many viewpoints from the speakers which I find refrehing and thoughtful. Very interesting for an American to hear! Thanks!
I think media and government on both ends do not always reflect the ordinary people...most normal people are loving and kind and just want peace. I am American and my husband is from Shandong. All the people I met there are SO nice! And all of our Chinese friends that come here to study also have had a great experience and made lots of friends. I think the younger generations of most countries will do a lot to change the culture of the world into a more loving and accepting place.
Great! Please do more of these from China! Also try some from Taiwan and HK for even more perspectives!
That guy wearing a denim shirt and a light grey/white hat in this video is from Taiwan.
Cool, that's good to know, thanks! I would love to see them in TW or HK walking around asking folks these types of questions as well.
Trust me , people in hk and Taiwan got more brainwashed by the media:) in general, mainland mainstream media reported more objective news about the world, if you don’t understand mandarin, please make a search from gatn
Wei Zhang I’m an American and I’ve spent many years in China and have watched many news programs and shows and yes I speak mandarin. I completely agree the view that Chinese are all “brainwashed” from Chinese “propaganda” is crazy exaggerated. If only more foreigners could speak mandarin and see for themselves! Now Chinese news from websites and newspapers on the other hand, I have read some way too one sided articles which have upset me, but Chinese news and programs on TV are generally much better.
Wei Zhang Kind of but there are still protest such as the umbrella movement as mainland China is not following the 1 country 2 systems policy. However, china is arresting the leaders of these movements such as joshua wong
As a Chinese who has lived in the US for 6 years for higher education (MA+PhD, at an "elite" university near Boston), I'm not surprised to hear what the interviewees in this video have to say about their perception of America. The only person with first-hand knowledge of the US, namely the middle-aged guy in denim, sees America as a less than ideal place to live in, while all those younger people who obviously have spent little, if any, time in the US, still in many ways picture the US as a heaven of freedom and equality (though with certain qualifications). This is so common and typical and shows the one thing that the US has undoubtedly succeeded in: controlling world Media (including non-Party-run media in China) and brainwashing common people worldwide.
The US has managed to impose its own biased, misleading and deceptive definition of "democracy" on the whole world. 70 to 90 years ago things were different, when communism as a political and ideological movement represented progressive forces striving for real democracy---demo=people, cracy=rule. Rule by the people, for the people. What matters is not whether you can vote in the presidential election---see how the 2016 campaign went, a joke. Democracy is not about how many parties you have. A multi-party (or in many cases two-party) system is simply a system that feeds on the partition (hence "party") or division of interests in society---different or even conflicting interests of different privileged groups or advocacy groups, who utilize the people to vie for political power. They do not, cannot and are not willing to represent the long-term interests of the common people, because, despite the conflicts between the priviliged groups themsevles, the gap between the elites and the people is much larger and fundamental.
That's why, whoever the POTUS is, they will soon break their promises to the people which they used to lure peoples' votes---they no longer need votes, what they now need in office, is the continuous support of the real rulers of the US---economic oligarchs in different sectors of US economy, finance, oil, arms industry. And these tycoons have much more in common with capitalist oligarchs elsewhere in the West than they do with ordinary US citizens. And that's why there is so much debate going on in the US about things that affect peoples' life so directly and obviously---health care, environmental protection, clean energy, public education. They debate because they don't care---they do care about how these issues can benefit their groups--but not the people.
In the Chinese system, the CCP would have set aside the divergencies and would have started making policies, in consultation with expert and representatives of the people, to promote whatever benefits our country and people the most in the next 5-50 years. Real democracy is reflected in the fear that if you don't work for the people, they will depose you without the resort to an election. When you lose people's faith in you, the whole system will decay.
A multi-party, election-driven political system, based on the internal differences among the elites and the gap between the elites and the people, namely, Western "democracy", can never think rationally in the long-run. It is by nature nearsighted and close-minded and increasingly unable to make long-term policies. They rely on fancy language and terms to keep people tame and complacent.
US has more equality? Wow, then who is the 1% that the 99% stood up against---in vain? Then why are the elections controlled by a bunch of rich people whose net assets surpass what most ordinary Americans can make in their entire careers? Then why are there so many homeless young people wandering on the street with their poor dogs holding signs like "seeking human kindness", bankcrupt and deprived of the right to restart a career under the capitalist financial "credit" system? Is this freedom and democracy? Are these people human beings?
Democracy=Serve the People. Democracy≠manipulate people to choose between two puppets serving the true ruling class. The US presidential campaigns are seriously like liturgical rituals that give people the illusion that "wow this is democracy".
The young people in this video, who still live in dreams and care about trivial matters about whatsapp (c'mon, it's about security. Chinese investors and products are banned by the West for the same reason; if you have a passport and can travel abroad, then you cannot claim that the government wants to control your little mind), need more exposure to the real US. It's not their fault. They simply need to read more history, travel more to rural China and other countries, and know a bit more about technology and the military, so as to stop acting like a self-claimed, laughable "bourgeois". Be down-to-earth and we will realize that the Chinese system is not only legitimate, but also morally firm.
couldn't agree with u more, bro~
it's not only the US alone, it's the whole Western countries that spread their value and influence the whole world through movies/books/ and other cultural stuff. Of course, the US is the biggest pusher. Not only does it brainwash other countries, but it also brainwashes their own countries.
ofekzpeggy129 I know u got higher education bro, u wrote a freaking essay....
就是这个理！
虽然中国现在有腐败。
但总体从政治上层建筑意识形态来说是从人民的的利益出发，代表着广大工人阶级，农民阶级的利益
而不像，资本主义政治体质，本性就是为资本家服务的。
well said
These were really excellent answers. Each person had a well thought out opinion and seemed very un-bias. That, by itself, speaks volumes about the people. I just gained even more respect for China.
Awsome video, and mad respect and love to everyone in Asia.
I really like this channel! Very original, which isn't easy on today's TH-cam. Interesting hearing what average people think.
I love this channel, I wish there were channels like this for all parts of the world.
Great video, and that last point was perfect. If more people listened to each other, even if they disagreed, there would be far less hate.
Kid in red jacket has a bright future. He wise beyond his years.
Very informative video perspective from Chinese citizens. I was actually surprised by some of the responses. As an American citizen myself wanting only Peace between all Countries around the world I believe videos like this can help build bridges to the future for all humans on earth. Keep up the great work.
this was a great video! thank you
Except that tiny mic :-)
Love your channel, love what youre doing, love china
Very interesting. Thanks for posting this
Very insightful! Keep these coming!
Any rich man can become the us president lol
It would be an amazing irony if meant as a criticism of democracy.
That’s the beauty of democracy any old schmoe can become the leader if enough people support them
Much respect from the United States China, it doesn't surprise me that everyone in this video was intelligent and had great insight on issues that need to be resolved. I do believe you guy's have freedom, my only issue is that you guy's can't vote for a president, hopefully that will be solved in the future. I hope before I die I can visit your great country! Much love from the United States best of luck over there my friends ❤
developed a unique system called "selection and election" of choosing its leaders
Apparently freedom is defined differently in different countries, so the US standards don't usually apply in China. And in China people don't find it be a problem not being able to elect the president, because China has developed a unique system called "selection and election" of choosing its leaders, which works pretty well for China, very different from the western models, so basically not comparable. In the US you can change the president/parties but a lot of time can't change the policies, in China we can't change the party but we can change the policies. Very efficient in terms of decision making. As a average citizen, being able to elect the president doesn't really mean a lot, not more than just a vague perception of "having the rights to elect", in fact could be dangerous if a unfit person gets elected (yes I am talking about Trump).
@@yning5475 Trump wasn't unfit at all lol? Dude was making peace and jobs over here in the states. You saying that they have no rights to pick their leader and being fine with that is hilarious. That's called a dictatorship, so you agree with North Koreas politics then by saying that. Trump was for the people and the media has brain washed you into believing otherwise, no wars started, desperate to make peace especially with North Korea. Your views are ignorant in my opinion.
@@boligard Before you reply, read my comment carefully and at least search what is "selection and election" process of choosing China's leaders. It's democratic in the Chinese way and people do have the rights to choose their leaders (not necessarily the president). As I said it's silly to apply US standard in China. As a Chinese living the west, I know what's going on in both sides, OK? I just spoke from my personal experience and views from people around me . and And China is nothing like North Korea, if you want to know go to China to see it yourself.
@@yning5475 reason being why I don't like the government over there. I love the people and the lands history, the Chinese have been through so much turmoil throughout their history i only pray for their well being.
awesome - thank you for sharing this
As an American I am shamed to say that I do not know as much about the world in general as I should. And I thank you for this video as it is opening my eyes to things that I just for whatever the reason have not seen before. This was a very interesting video and I will now learn more about the world I live in because of this.
how old are you?
Native Texan here. The West may never figure out other cultures unless We quit assuming We Should Be in charge. The Eastern Culture is much more nuanced and knowledge and wisdom are prized. We are all just one My Brothers and Sisters.
Quite a few your fellow Americans thought they were not even in charge of their country so Trump had his time.
That's great insight. But I don't think politicians in the west want people to figure out other cultures, better picture foreign culture a bit hostile so they can create an enemy when there is no enemy...
Uhm, the west? You mean the US.
Yeah I'd have to agree with Simmseh. Only the US seems to have such a high-esteem of their own country. Noone in Europe is shouting "UK #1! UK #1", or "Go France! Go France!"
Kilian Yep, and they are very stubborn when criticised. It's a shame to see such a beautiful country be ruined by its politics and mindset (war, usa Nr. 1 etc)
Used to not wanna visit China but there’s so much culture and places to visit and now I’m kinda intrigued
Great video, thank you so much
Thank you for the video! I love hearing from other peoples' perspectives. It's sad, people in the United States aren't this educated on current events going on in other countries, but all of these people that were interviewed have a general idea of what's going on here. I really enjoyed listening to everyone's answers. Especially the guy in the red jacket, he seemed very open minded while maintaining his sense of national pride.
How the hell is "As long as I get to use WhatsApp, I don't care" an "educated" response towards a question of what goes on in your own country?
These people didn't strike me as more educated or insightful than the average american truth be told.
The translation was a bit off. She apparently said, "let me be able to use WhatsApp first," which is just a remark hinting at their lack of freedom in certain areas, even when it comes to social media. Plus, that was just one of the responses lol.
Yeah, I was definitely interested in his opinions, with the way he expressed them. He seemed like a smart, thoughtful guy.
She said "Let me use WhatsApp before you begin to talk about democracy and freedom." She alluded to the lack thereof without going deep into the topic. BTW, I'm Chinese.
Much love to the people of China!
Much love to you too, bro.
Fabulous Beast thank you. Chinese people like make friends like you. We can make the world great again.
Fabulous Beast thanks
Visiting China is a dream of mine. Wish the $$$ was there so I could go.
@Chikata Mafuyu I'm curious on the education you have on China, you can try researching and not being biased before commenting
good video 👍🏻
fair answers from educated people, keep going asian boss
Nicely done. I teach ESL to adult students in China from Toronto, so this was good. 👌🏽
After watching this video it helps me to get a closer distance and clearer vision to understand how china people think, me as a hong konger has completely eye-opened to their thoughts and individual mindsets. :) thanks Asian Boss
I appreciated this video, the people (all younger people btw) seemed very thoughtful and knowledgeable.
China is older or middle age old country.....check google .india pakistan iran Afghanistan is young countries.
The dude in the cap wasn’t holding back on his views. I like that. It would be great having a conversation with him.
Thanks for making these videos. I'm hooked. I've been interested in eastern culture for quite a while (mostly fascinated with cultures as they manifest in social behavior, values, codes of honor, etc). A couple of my friends are from eastern countries, and I know them well, but I feel sometimes that it would be healthy to somehow be a guest among Asians without traveling across the ocean. Unfortunately though becoming accepted by a group of Asian friends has been remarkably difficult for me. I'm hoping your videos can give me some tips on how to communicate with more understanding, and maybe also how better present myself.
Id like to see what Chinese think of Australia as I live in sydney and there is a lot of Chinese moving here for study and to live.
I also love different cultures and highly respect China's long history and cultural heritage.
Australia is the most lovely place in the world!!
I m chinese , let me tell you what comes to my mind when i hear about your country, kangaroos, the theater (the white one by the water ), beach , ocean, low population, and top 3 most popular immigration destination for rich chinese people.
Apothecary of truth welcome to china
好山好水好无聊。 Means great view, great beach but very very boring.
I think whites should flood another nation where they don't have historical presence by the millions, as the Chinese have done.
We'll see how "racist" the people in those nations become. Hmm, perhaps it is only natural be dis-favorable toward the large influx of another tribe.
I'm American I love everybody and respect all I see us as one people not by certain ethnicity we are all humans and deserve the be treated as one no matter the difference or power struggle it the people who matter and our views of each other how we treat and act towards other that will change this world... shout to China from an American
Good work guys this is awesome!
Based on this, I believe that the average chinese citizen doesn't want to go to war or any military conflict with anyone (North Korea, America, etc.) but rather they want peaceful resolutions instead. War is bad for the economy and for the people and I hope no war would break out in the pacific or anywhere involving the superpowers. I'm from the Philippines btw and I don't want my country to wage war with anyone nor be attacked by anyone. We had good relations with China and US before and I hope now we can estsblish that again.
Why would any average citizen from any country want to get involved in wars
This is true for most people in majority of all countries... It is always the government, the top brass, the head of state that antagonize other states. The people that suffer are the average joe.
War fuels developed nation economies.
WOW! People in China know more about our government and it's affairs than 95% of what Americans know about Chinese politics. I'm also subscribed to ChinaUncensored ( and now SUBSCRIBED to AsianBoss) and I at least know a fraction of current news with Chinese politics. If I had a N.American Boss Channel and did this sames exact piece here, asking the same questions, I would have to ask a hundred people before your average American would even know who the leader of the Chinese Communist party is... let alone ANYTHING about it's history since WW2
You know China Uncensored is run by a cult that is 10x worse than Scientology right? Oh and yes, this cult is getting official support from US government simply because they talk shit about China.
Asian Boss is good. But China Uncensored, uh...you know they exaggerate a lot, right?
The people in China know nothing about history. They only know the parts of history the Chinese government doesn't censor.
Nothing? Do more research. The government claims Chinese culture have 5000 yrs history, and they surely teach it in schools.
I don’t like Chinese government and its value. But the cult that ran China Uncensored is worse. Their style of getting popularity is a bit like pre-1949 CPC before its take-over of China.
This was great to watch. Love their use of humor on each topic and unique takes. And the war question/answer cracked me up "Only if one of our leaders goes crazy" LOL
Thank you for this video.
