I Grew Up in Communist China, Here’s My Warning to America

I Grew Up in Communist China, Here’s My Warning to America

This year’s election had a historically high turnout.

Recently, many Americans haven’t cared so much about elections, thinking there ultimately wasn’t much difference between Republicans and Democrats, or between specific candidates.

However, with the approach of the 2020 election, many people became alarmed. They realized how far our country had strayed from its foundations. If we don’t take ownership now, they thought, it will be beyond repair.

The whole world is watching this election closely. Some Chinese have commented: “We thought China was going to become America. Instead, America is becoming China!”

It is so true. At this point, there are a lot of things we cannot say in America. Political correctness is not a matter of choice; it is a survival skill. If you say one word wrong, you can lose your job. If you don’t follow the mainstream narrative, you will get attacked by the mainstream media. It has reached such an extent that we should ask, do we still have freedom of speech?


This reminds me of China. Fifty years ago in communist China, if you made casual comments about the communists, you would end up in jail or a labor camp.

Someone who was at home and made one comment not in line with the CCP would be punished. A son would report on his father, a daughter on her mother, and a husband and wife on each other. Fear of the Communist Party, and indoctrination by it, had become a second human nature, pushing out natural feelings.

I immigrated to America more than 30 years ago. I always tell people, “America is the least discriminatory country in the whole world.” Yet we hear “discrimination” and “racism” daily in news reports. “Discrimination” and “racism” have become political weapons. They are no longer a matter of moral principle.

With so many protests and riots being organized in the name of fighting racism, the issue of race is now purposefully used to divide our society. In communist countries such as China and the former Soviet Union, the communists created division based on social class.

Communists always talk about class struggle. They claim that any inequality of wealth is because the wealthy exploit the working class. Communists use the working class to take down the middle and upper classes, until the country’s whole economy is destroyed.

It's beginning to look a lot like China
Everywhere you go
Take a look at the five and ten, it's closing down again
Masktards and shortages in the lanes...this blows

It's beginning to look a lot like China
Toilet paper not in every store
But the ugliest sight to see is the "tracer" that will be
At your own front door

To weld you in.

Silly Chinese woman!

First Chinese Communists are FAKE COMMUNISTS!

Anyway, at least the stopped the Death of a Thousand Cuts (Ling Chi), and female foot-binding which was widely prevalent in pre-Communist China.

They also banned female infanticide, though they were not able to stop it, which is due to ancient Confucian values.


Google how brutal and savage, pre-Communist China was.


You're dealing with the MONGOLOID ASIATIC HIVEMIND!

.

You're dam* right!


I prefer a modern Chinese communist bullet, rather than Chinese slow slicing & cutting death, foot binding, canque, and all the traditional Chinese tortures!

what will happen is people will revolt and the army needs to really support the people.

Still, I pray for our President. God bless Donald Trump for standing up for the people, and fighting against the swamp. Trump is not our enemy, he is one of our strongest heroes.

BS? How come you are so confused? Read more, research and maybe you'll get some knowledge you apparently lack.

Apparently you looked last time before 1975. Since then Saigon was re-named Ho Chi Minh and Vietnam is re-united.

Wow, amazing how many commies we have running around here. I suspect you are, in fact, CCP disinfo agents. Nobody in their right mind thinks China is in any way a world leader in humanitarian rights.

Look at how many people disappeared into covid quarantine camps and we're never seen again. Just because they kill you faster now than they used to doesn't mean they aren't still killing you. Retards.

the Chinese America community is divided about 50/50 between conservative and liberal. Percentage wise there are probably more Chinese patriots than white American patriots. A lot of the liberal Chinese are the poor inner city types who rely on governments benefits.

I just can't understand that.

Trotsky came up with the term "racism" as a way to divide and conquer the West.

I wonder what the world was like before Bolshevism.
