We need more people in China like you. Need free thinking.
They are probably the majority you know but are afraid . Watch rise of skywalker there is a quote " they make us feel we are few ... but we are many " the majority of chinese want democracy but are too afraid ... i mean who wants to be ruled by a monopoly ?
@@jcpeters4157 I am Chinese,I can't it's majority,and we have no statistics about it,but based on my experience living in China,I think its about 40%
@maddox alisa You are just a self-righteous bystander. You have never experienced the horror of the Chinese government. You just blamed others in a safe place. You do n’t even know the actual thoughts of any Chinese people. What I want to ask is, do you have all your opinions Is it like this without evidence?

@@lizwei1967 i agree but thats only because the actual idea of it is forbidden , like muslims can't eat pork.
The CCP loses face by trying to save face. Humility and honesty are the best traits in a government and in leaders.
The Problem is you did not critic to the key point the Food Chain of the international order.The average OIL quata is only 25% of That of Us and Europa.You have to increase the energy consumption to maintain a western style luxury life and political entity. Democracy is being used among different classes of people to divide resources and distribute to each groups. But you have to have occupy or own so much to be able to do it. If us and Europe still control all the sea road and do not allow Chinese people to get the same amount of energy and food and land per capita as they have then the accused are shit and anti humanity.
东皇太一 ....you are just anti world. Why does everything from you guys have to be always doing this? You guys always say bad things about the west but expect everyone to be good to china? H9w are you better? Ridiculous. If you expect respect, you need to show it.

Joshua Smith Being humorous is another, but rarely found in Chinese leaders.
I talked about dark side of the USA , but Chinese netizens and friends argue, criticize or even attack me for this. They said that I'm a Wumao coz I'm not a USA citizen and so I should not talk bad about the US. This is strange, why can't I talk bad about the US if I'm not a US citizen????
It's so refreshing to watch a video from such an open minded Chinese citizen. You're such a modest guy too, acknowledging a comment like that. I hope China will someday be filled by people who think like you. Simon. Someone who doesn't want to wallow in past hatreds to push agendas.
Most Chinese people just want to get on with their lives and have no interest in politics or the CCP. Doesn't mean they're any less open minded, they're just indifferent. You clearly think most Chinese people are brainwashed nationalists full of hatred.
Preach, Simon. Your voice very is necessary. Great video.
Yes yes yes!!! He is such a rock star!!! Very brave!!!! 😘
simon is objective but you, bloody laowai86 is totally double standard and only anti china,you can not even compared with simon.
jing huang are you okay? 😂😂😂😂
I LOVE your video Simon. I'm an ABC, I speak cantonese and mandarin.. I practice kung fu, did alot of chinese community cultural events my whole life and I was fine with my chinese culture awareness.. until I went to college and met so many foreign students from mainland china.. years onward Ive been criticized by most (not all) mainland chinese students for being this "ignorant ABC" that doesnt know chinese culture because I either dont speak mandarin as well as they do (for example, I dont know science or political words in mandarin), didnt grow up in a china (not having a PRC passport), or attempt to have a rational disucssion about political topics. To prevent myself from writing a thesis of my life story, I just wanted to say Simon, it warms my heart that there are people in china that are critical but still love their country. It is no different than a parent who loves their child but is consistently harsh on them because they want to see the child improve and strive. on a side note, sun zhongshan is one of my favorite chinese historical figures..
Normal people disagree and agree all the time, imagine Disagreeing with someone you love and ... you now hate that person.
Nothing works that way.
When now China = CCP, your points are anti-CCP, so they labelled you as anti China. Indeed you criticize because you love China. However, CCP demands absolute obedience. Hope you will be safe in future. May God bless you for your true and brave words.

Such a rational, clear-headed perspective. Living in China must be very difficult for you at times. I have lived in BJ for 10 years. Things have shifted dramatically more and more toward ignorance and nationalism in recent years, particularly exacerbated by the current situation and anti foreigner sentiment. Institutional level change must take place, beginning at a young age to develop critical thinking, self-efficacy and confidence. I don't expect anything to change for the better. But we must always try our best. I respect you tremendously. You need a bigger platform within China.

Agreed. If there is something that have managed to keep us in Scandinavia going even though our shit geographical location is our allowed right to criticize and strive for improvement.
@@Limboinpinbo it's called "democracy"... China is not having any of that anytime soon, sad to say.
@@joojoojeejee6058 It's actually called parliamentary democracy. It's not a normal democracy.
@@Limboinpinbo Or representative democracy.. Democracy is democracy. There are different variations in the implementation of democracies, but the fundamentals are still pretty universal (free elections, strong civil liberties etc.). And most democracies have a strong parliament.
BTW, according to the international democracy index, the most democratic country in the world is Norway, and all Nordic countries are in the top 7... USA is #25 and Russia is #134. The last is North Korea, #167.
Keep speaking for the people of China. Dissent against those even at the top who abuse the people is often the truest form of patriotism.

Im glad you are seeing clearly. Discussion is key in these times. keep it up!
My ex is chinese.
We fought a lot because I criticized the CCP. She thought CCP=China. So when I criticized CCP I criticize China.
Even though she also disagreed with many CCP policies, I was somehow not allowed to disagree.
But since the CCP claim to be the people, many chinese believe that you cannot criticize them.
this is my theory anyways...
Foreigners can't criticize CCP, only Chinese living in China can. That's the gist of it.
However, remember Chinese mainland can criticize every countries out there and that's perfectly fine.

I understand your frustration. I don't know about your ex background that much but I assume her parents might be residing in China. The most unfair thing is that she really wanted to agree with you from the bottom of her heart but it could endanger her loved ones if CCP finds out that she's being "disobedient" or "unpatriotic" towards them.
I criticise the Australian government all the time but nobody ever called me anti-Australian. It is healthy to show where the government has acted badly. Another great video Simon. I am glad you seem healthy and well. You are a brave, intelligent young man. Peace.

Simon, I always listen to your opinions and I respect them even when I disagree, which is not often. Many Chinese people are of the opinion they have freedom of speech, but that is only true if your speech does not criticize the Central government. So there is a double standard, but there is also no Constitution that gives you the right to speak your mind.
i heard you can speak your mind , dont talk about separatism, sedition...u be ok

My impression of the CCP is that they are strongly adverse to “free thinking” except when the outcome of same is agreement with their views and policies. I’ve heard that internal to the party they may have discussions and debates, but when it comes to public discourse there are lines that can’t be crossed - such as criticism of Xi Jing Ping or advocating for the rights of HK citizens to democratically elect their leaders.

Solid reasoning and I love the fact that you gave well respected Chinese figures as an example. Although I have heard the same sentiment expressed by foreigners on this phenomenon in china it was really interesting to hear it expresssed from a native Chinese perspective.
I think you have a very well balanced view. I think anyone who provides constructive criticism for their country is very patriotic, even if that is criticism that the government won't want to hear but will make the country better if followed.
Hi great video. I found it just by accident, it came on my recommended as i try to listen to accounts from chinese people on this kind of subject.. but I like what you said and agree with your points. 🙌 hope things can inprovr for chinese people and they can have free speech in the future. 🌟✨❤
Enjoy your videos, especially enjoy your background view today - looks much like here in florida. You certainly don't seem anti-china to me, an old retired usa guy. Seem honest and personable and should do well in life. Wish you luck.
Hear, hear. Well said on how many people don't differentiate between criticism and indiscriminate hate. It is a problem that simply hating on something without a second thought is much easier and requires less effort than to assess what is wrong with it, especially if such views gathers much more clicks, views, and online traffic.

Hi Simon Yu ... I like your presentations ... You made some very good points in your comments over China & Chinese matters !!!
I wrote the following comments on Quora recently ... I would love to leave it here for you & your fans to read too ... hope to get more people to understand WHY there is a SUDDEN Overseas Chinese & a SUDDEN BIG INTERNATIONAL FOLLOWING of Good Wishers & Supporters for China ( and even for the CCP of China ).
I am an Overseas Chinese myself … I was SO SAD & disappointed when I first visited China in the very early ‘80’s.
I saw the desperation of sheer abjectness in those early Chinese days … I was one who had believed … China would need 150 to 250 more years to raise her People and their living standards to Singapore’s living standards of the early ’80s … or may not ever!
PRACTICALLY YES! Hardly anyone could be proud of China, then … I was openly displeased with their uncouth manners & their total lack of even basic social decorum!!!
Corrupted Civil Servants were everywhere … and they announced proudly, loudly & clearly, they wanted to be very rich … Some Years Ago!!
The state of corruption was SO APPALLING & RAMPANT … HELL Would Freeze Over Thrice … before China can ever Rise!!
We could see the immense Chinese Market Potential … BUT with that much parasites, cankers & sores, grafted onto the National Body of China … we couldn’t see even a glimpse of hope! We became more & more disillusioned & myself & many others were deciding to back out … and let the multinationals do their own long arm & deep pocketed things.
Up till 2013, China was truly deplorable … then, Xi JinPing was elected as President of the People's Republic of China on 14th March 2013 … and thus, the Spring Cleaning & Polishing of China began … but the following few short years were China’s most difficult & chagrined moments. By the 13th October, 2017 China has announced that 1,034,000 officials have been punished for corruption ... China’s anti-corruption campaign to "kill tigers and swat flies" - or to go after ... of different party and state departments will be streamlined.
Everyone, including a very large measure of Mainland Chinese, had disbelieved & condemned the Xi JinPing’s Graft Eradication Program as a ploy to flush off his political opponents & lock away or execute the brazen ones.
I, myself was quite sceptical … that President Xi was embarking on a selfless Heavens’ Decreed Journey, mandated by Centuries of Lost Chinese Righteousness. By the 6th Year of Xi JinPing’s unrelenting rout against graft … Everyone was struck with AWE … NOT ONE WHIMPER OF DOUBT STOOD AGAINST THIS CHINESE NATIONAL SWORD.
That was when … ALL HELLS BROKE LOSE IN THE WEST, ESPECIALLY IN THE USA, & ALL HEAVENS BROKE OPEN FOR THE GRATEFUL CHILDREN OF MOTHERLAND CHINA & HER FARFLUNG CHINESE DIASPORA.
That was when … WE ARE GLAD TO BE CHINESE … wherever we are!!
That was when … hundreds of thousands of worldwide people became so enamoured and so believing of China & Chinese Leadership!
I'm doing alright. Thanks for asking.
I was so stunned by the kindness of your caring that I couldn't pay attention to anything you said after that.
😜😄
If being critical of government is a sign of being anti chinese then someone needs to tell the CCP. They came into power by overthrowing the last government and usually when you overthrow a gov, you are always worried about being overthrown. So anyone against you is Anti this or Anti that. The CCP is also responsible for so much of China’s imperial history being lost by the cultural revolution . Over the years the CPG has had to buy back so many of China’s history from other nations who saved scrolls and other items that the gov considered “banned”. If the Chinese people stood up for their country and its history back then they wouldn’t of had to rely on the rest of the world to save it. Why are these things never considered against China’s interest or bad for China now? My point is, sometimes you just have to stand up for what is right not what the gov always says you have to do. History shows us how wrong they have been time and time again, keeping them in check is our duty.
Simon, you're great. Let me just offer you a more polished headline: "Is criticizing China for the things it doesn't do well being Anti-China?" | Average Chinese view"
I am really happy that I live in India here we have full rights we can criticize anyone even we can criticize the Prime minister in front of Him also. So yes I am Lucky.#Nohate.

@@ichat8681 I think it is irony and over usage of adverbs.
The problem is when foreigners only criticize China, but they don't criticize the shortcomings in their own country. No country is perfect. About friendliness in China, the experience of a beautiful blonde haired girl is obviously going to be different than someone else with a different situation..... You can still love your country and criticize the government. It is ridiculous to expect every Chinese person to love the Qing Dynasty...... does that mean they don't like China? NO. Is it wrong to say you prefer Deng Xiao Ping instead of Mao? No, I don't think so. I think it is just an opinion. So I don't think it is fair for people to equate the government as the same as the country and the people.

To be honest a lot of the so called Chinese nationalists aren’t even that. If they were really nationalists they would promote what they see as being what’s best for the nation or policies that could be promoted. They don’t do that though they just want to stop the conversation before it begins. The whole idea that a debate could be had and a conclusion reached is anathema to them.
Yeah, a lot of so-called Chinese nationalists and wumaos spout out the same old lines of propaganda. I'm much more likely to listen to a nationalist who is logical and doesn't blindly praise everything about China. Someone who says mostly good and occasionally not so good things about China is far more believable (and probably expressing their real thoughts) than someone who says China is the greatest and China is doing everything right.
If views are balanced then it’s not anti China. There are a lot of channels that have 80 per cent of their content trying to portray China in a negative light and never show the positive side. Your channel is more balanced.
It's so incredibly crippling for a nation, when the people cannot speak their mind and help move the country forward but instead gets forced to agree with everything the government does. You are very smart, Simon

I have two great friends that come from Mainland China when I was studying in university. We get along well with each other. The hatred between Taiwan and Mainland China need to be eliminated. But the most sorrowful truth is that both governments are keep on shading each other.
That's really something great to hear from you. It is very painful when you see your brothers and sisters, of the same blood, language-shared being split into two countries. Your lovely nation being separated not only in two states, but even in the terms of values which has created such a needless hostility between the people. Yes, we have so many cases in the world history and the very case is Germany. This nation has been divided several times during its history and in different periods until 1989 when the process of unification started. A landmark year that will be remembered. 1989! And I know many of you are going to mention that the parallel I have drawn between West Germany&East Germany and PRC&ROC isn't worthy compared to, because are situated in other circumstances.
The same event hopefully wish will take place even for the Chinese nation. And I am certain will be etched remarkably in the books of history in every corner of the world. Anywhere. It's truly great to see that even the people are not being affected from political's agenda. You shouldn't allow yourselves being used as cannon fodder. Never. With love from Albania!

Before 1989 you could not freely criticize the government. Sure, people did criticize things but it was when you were at home, with your family or very close friends. Going out in public and speaking against the leadership was not only considered anti-Romanian, but it was dangerous. You could be punished for it and lots of people were punished for it. Some paid with their life for it
This is what happens when one party/one leader identifies itself/himself with the country. When THE PARTY = THE COUNTRY, then it's easy to label someone anti-country when all they're doing is to criticize the government.
In our case it was Nicolae Ceaușescu and the PCR (the Romanian Communist Party). I remember there was even a song called "The Party, Ceaușescu, Romania", so you see how they were trying to equate Romania as a country with the party and the leader and you couldn't criticize one without "attacking" the country.
Today it's very different and it is perfectly normal and safe to criticize the government. But it's not something that happened just like that, it took a Revolution to get it.
Anyway, hope you get to read this. Take care and stay safe.

我覺得Simon說的沒錯,只是說出自己的意見不相同就被貼上標籤,真的太誇張了,每個人都擁有言論自由,所以我支持你說出想講的話。👍👍👍
愛之深責之切而已~
Eventhough I see some fair critics on China. Most I see is bashing, manipulation, racism and hayte towards China. I would call that anti-china and we need to be aware of that as well.
We have a lot of room to improve. There is nothing “anti China” about improvement.
It’s all about the system we are living in
Let’s ask ourselves
“Criticizing your government for what it didn’t do well equals to Anti-your government?”
The answer is “ NO “ in free world!
If your answer is “ Yes “ you knew the kind of world you live in!
說的很好👍中國人自古以來⋯愛面子,還有東廠、宦官護駕表功
說句笑話:中國人有言論自由....(不保證言論之後的自由)....
其實中國人自己關起門來討論政府的也是有, 但同一件事跟外國人討論就成了不愛中國, 一切就看對象是誰罷了...
I'm American. I love my Country. Sometimes my Country gets things wrong - that does not make me anti-American. That makes me a free thinking individual with a thought if my own.
alot thing wrong with our us
Critical thinking doesn't mean anti China. It means people want improvements.
China is not the CPC.
CPC is not the people of China.
The People is not China.
When people mix this or get it wrong they can start to think strange things.
@StrategicFooyoo The Han made the concept of China. And all the way back to the Three Kingdoms.
Do you think Xinjiang, Tibet, Mongolia and more... all has the same genes, culture, (views on the)government and geography?
@StrategicFooyoo whataboutism dont work on me...
@StrategicFooyoo that is a harsh way to look at it.. but maybe true. We cant see in to the future. Maybe the cpc gets a new ruler and that one is a real democrat. And let china split up so everyone lives in a land that the like.
Or war...
Or... More oppression...
Or... Cpc is starting to work FOR the people. And not for themselves..
@StrategicFooyoo my bad.. sorry.. i watch to much fox news.. (not that i like it but i want to know what 'they' think.. so i miss read you. stay safe. and sorry for my attitude.
哈哈哈 第一次见这么高度表扬西安 加油🦆
You are correct .... to arrest for political reasons or no reason is WRONG -- Also to supress cultures other than Chinese is WRONG
Again a very rational point of view that I completely agree with.
Great video, please keep it up and stay safe.

Simon, it's called FREEDOM! Freedom of Religion, Freedom of Speech, Freedom of the Press, Freedom of Assembly, etc. The United States Constitution exists to protect the People from the Government not to protect the Government from the People.
Ph.D. Guy And the “Patriot Act” ??? As for freedom of the press haha and freedom of speech yeah sure every human has that but also be careful what you say as it may come with a consequence!
lol right. nice idea. you think the Founders would look around today and agree with your observation? you live in Neverneverland. it's all fake. you're a boiling frog my friend. just ask yourself... at what theoretical point would you make a stand/revolt? and really research that point, even the scary parts, and you'll likely find that point is already under attack. what will you do? absolutely nothing, because you're in Dreamland, thinking you're free and the Chinese aren't, they just don't hide it as well as the West. God speed.
However either of you want to spin it, I would still take our freedoms over anything else in the world!
@@acharletta they're an illusion. live abroad sometime, you'll see how not free we are in the West. we're only free to consume and a few other minor things. It's an illusion that we're free. we're owned by the oligarchs, and every successive government adds thousands of new laws; laws don't give more freedom, they restrict it. it's all an illusion.
Free thinking should typically be valued more than loyalty. If a person, institution, society or nation is to improve, it needs to be open to and heed thoughtful criticism. Thin skinned reaction will in the long run will result in ruin.
I found your channel via serpentza, who recommended you. I think you made excellent points that were will reasoned and thoughtful. I wish you the best as you share what you think.
5000 year old History was destroyed in culture revolution in China (1966 - 1976). So How old is Chinese History in today's date? It's 44 years, 1 month, and 23 days. But Taiwan did preserved the Chinese history and its in Taiwan not in China.
Stop pushing this BS already. If your logic is applied to Taiwan, Taiwan has only 30 years of history. The DPP has been waging war on all things related to China for decades now.
Brainwashed
@StrategicFooyoo that 'new culture' in China is greed, money and power. People in China are brainwashed by CCP to the extend that people don't recognize or understand the basic moral values and human dignity.
@@EmmaNguyen-mg5xq You. Not Me.
@@EugeneSavinov If you can only open your eyes, and get out that box CCP had kept you and a billion plus people in it. For now you are an ignorant, and will remain one until you get out side that box.
我認為反中是不對的。應該是反中共才對!人與人之間本就不該互相仇視⋯⋯我們反對的是中國共產黨的體制才是!
Fascinating. You're very intelligent and very charming. If only young Americans and young people in western countries were as well informed and thoughtful as you. *"Constructive criticism" is the term you maybe seeking. The CCP has one strength: it can quarantine large areas to prevent the virus from spreading.*
China does not need Praise or Blame, Pro or Anti, Likes or Dislikes. China will progress and organise their own country.
敢說黨的壞話?小心被小粉紅舉報
Kerwin Lin 台灣説民進黨壞話也會被查水表⋯
你不是普通中国人
You said something very valuable Simon. To hear somebody disagree with you makes you wanna see things also from a different perspective. How boring would it be if we would agree on every topic. 🌷
You are a wonderful person, Simon. All the best for you and what you stand for. Thumbs up.
Speaking of Sun Yat Sen. I love Sun Yat Sen.
Very well said, I believe you covered the most salient points.
Simon, I just LOVE your videos! You have so much common sense and you are so correct in this video. I find, in reading comments on many videos dealing with China, the Chinese people are far more sensitive than other people. I am American and I find it kind of crazy. You really get it and I find that very refreshing! THANK YOU😃❤
I am so glad to seem such a courageous people like you ciriticizing the government while living in China. Also, you have independent thinking and your oral English is awesome. Keep on going!
The problem is that the intolerant will not listen to reason they will abuse you to gain or keep power. When they start to abuse someone we have to be intolerant back to the abusers or freedom perishes.
If this helps there are some key difference between patriotism and nationalism. Both are about love of the land, history, people and protecting it from those who want to destroy but patriotism also incorporates criticism to improve oneself while Nationalism (or jingoism if you prefer) is about subservience to the state, you don't get to have an opinion unless it's the same opinion as the state, anything critical will result in you being seen as the enemy.
I dont know why some people are calling you anti-China. I respect what you say-it's your country, you certainly know more than anyone from the outside. I have a tremendous amount of respect for you. And yes, I say much, MUCH harsher things about my own country and have for many years.
There was also "100 Flowers Campaign" by Mao Zedong.....didn't turn out too well but the premise is there
