Some things I admire about China, as a Chinese American college student
- Better food, both in terms of actual dishes, and the dining experience
- Better and smarter urbanism, more public transport, lack of car dependence or suburban sprawl
- Shopping (malls, markets) being better
- They're less diverse (my parents were arguing this was an advantage the US has over China and I'm like... srsly? Also they were fucking chewing me out for being openly racist against jeets at home)
- More leftist in general, cares more about the common worker / farmer and treats them more like heroes
- More emphasis on family? Chinese senpaitachi seem to know how to parent right
- More emphasis on education, achievement, intelligence; glorification of scientists over, say, idols
- Authoritarianism / lack of democracy (read: bureaucracy) allows shit to actually get built, unlike in the US
- Continues to produce good TV, movies, and music (and creators) when everything in the West has declined; no mandatory diversity quotas
- Acceptance of LGBT, but not in a woke / obnoxious way
- State atheism
- No Steins and Witzes pulling no strings
- Reduced crime/violence, you can go out at night w/o fear; less petty theft
- More pride in own national culture, more nationalism, more of a national culture to even speak of
- More history (to pride self on), much more
- Better geography, interesting geographic variation
- Conveniences the US sorely lacks, e.g. Mixue delivery, surveillance
- Rly deep language, almost totally devoid of foreign influences, one of most self-sufficient in today's world
- Firewall was a really smart, based move on their part, and helped foster local parallel innovation, much of which ended up surpassing Western versions in popularity
- Unlike here, people are genuinely optimistic abt the future
