People can decry China for all they want but like it or not they are on progress to represent the beacon of technology whereas the western world is on the brink of being effectively left behind ...

China has a society that is intrinsically of higher trust while western social systems have lower trust which is why democracy, rule of law, and privacy are all overrated to them ...

There's a very good reason why the CCP have the "Mandate of Heaven" because the people believe that they can restore China to it's former glory ...

That's all well and good.  But, we know objectively that communism, or whatever you want to call their current hybrid-but-still-super-authoritarian system, can't bring about prosperity in the long run.  So, there isn't any glory waiting at the end of their 100, or 1000, or 10000 year time horizon.  There's just oppression, suffering, and indignity on the way, and at the destination.   

Exactly.

Not only that, but their "vision" of "returning to former glory" is wholly subjective, as well as fundamentally flawed to it's core, so I'm not sure what he;'s babbling about, as if there was any point to that to begin with. 

Hell, China built an AI, then asked it's view on communism. The AI cited Communism as flawed, and you know what they did to the AI?. They shut it down, because when you don't agree with China and communism, you get the boot, that's how they operate. No former glory needed, just a crummy, flawed country.

Also being "ahead", in surveillance tech, and tech to generally profile your entire life, isn't exactly what everyone wants in their lives, so there's not much to "leave behind" in regards to that line of tech. Wake me up when China makes GITS style prosthetic bodies, totally not controlled by their Gov, and work 100% well, with hardly any "made in China" style faults, then we'll talk.
