    That is true, the United States is a shit show. I won’t defend it. I want to burn it down and elect a generation of young leaders.

    For me, a society should not be judged by how it treats its average citizens, but its lowest citizens. In the United States that is black people, prisoners, muslims, poor people, transgender people, gay people. These conversations are all public and extremely active in the news as well as in general discourse among young people and in universities. Many politicians and activists groups are attempting to bring about change in these areas.

    Who are the lowest citizens in China? How are they treated? How often are they talked about? Who is attempting to bring about change in regards to them?

    If conflating multiple ideas together is all you can do, this conversation is boring. I am talking about multiple things, yet you only reply with critique of others. Why do you not share critique of your self and your home? Are you telling me that everything is perfect? That’s astonishing if so.

    And in previous comments you have disregarded my experiment. You can prove my perception of China to be incorrect by participating in my activity.

    Finally, is not everything you say about me and my perception of China not also true of someone in China viewing the western world? I am curious how the two situations are different from your perspective.

    I love being wrong, when I am wrong I learn things. But I am a scientist. I will always make someone put in at least some work to show me I am wrong. I hold them to the same standard I hold myself, and that is a high standard.
