A parents' can ask their kid to limit video game time, but can't have the video gaming industry to enforce it. A national government can. That's the issue. And if a parent really feels their kids deserve more video game time,

Kids can't be criminally punished/sued, not for things like these. Kids can be sued for damages to others which ultimately their parents/guardians would be required to pay which doesn't exist in this case. This is simila

What about child protection service, school, free lunch at school, healthcare, and more comparably age 21 restriction for alcohol consumption? Those are all examples of 'jurisdiction over raising children'.

Technically, the state doesn't place restrictions on the kids, which is legally impossible, they place restrictions on the digital entertainment business where they are required to allow entry for kid for no longer than said duration.

Here is the thing, those online games prey on inner mechanism of the human nature for profit, and kids are specially vulnerable, so to some extent, certain level of restriction would be desirable. Also note the general background of Chinese

Most Chinese don't speak Mandarin per se before the CCP's policy on a mandatory national language, although similarly most people can't read/write either before the same policy. Mao Zedong himself speak Mandarin with a s

At that time the brits, the colonists had plenty of time to reform, just that no one were ever interested enough in that poor uninhabitable land to pour enough resource to it, even if history repeats itself, no one would. Hell, we hardly do

Tibetan and Han shared same genetic roots, so does their language (collectively classified as Sino-Tibetan languages). Legendly, in the dawn of human memories, the ancestors of Tibetan lost a tribal war against the ancestors of Han in the e

Well, in your case, it would still require extensive testing, it's not a flip the coin kind of thing, otherwise you are effectively setting off a nuclear bomb on your homeland.

I don't think the current system is so much worse. It's just not possible. DL is an actual dictator in a world without news coverage, just imagine. That's also not just the CCP's argument, it's the same argument for
