Thanks for summaries. Inside China there are many years of experience of helping poor areas get out of poverty. After years of failure it has been widely known knowledge among developed area people that many historically poverty areas beca

I totally agree with your observation. I've been there in last Dec and this Jan. Probably the hostile sentiment is even stronger towards Canada (Which traditionally most Chinese see as a friendly country partially because of a couple

Nassim is really a great thinker. His latest book "Skin in the game" probably is underestimated by the public. It's relevant to quite a lot of current events happening that have a huge impact on modern society.

Violent crime rate is very low because of another reason: Security cameras everywhere. Criminals are either already in jail because of more efficient policing, or stop doing stupid things after watching the real stories on TV about how crim

It can explain the behaviour of many politicians/activists/journalists today. A lot of them are very good at presentation in public with Oscar nominees skills but little integrity. These traits are better fit for today's (mo

I personally use a term of "Extended Gödel Theorem" to explain many non mathematical topics , some paradoxical phenomena in daily life, even politics. But what I really mean is "Godel Theorem Inspired Theorems" which ha

Also as a Chinese speaker I would put this kind of misinformation into "subjective distortion based on partial facts in order to inject wrong meme into audience, intentionally or otherwise". As opposed to “blatant lie”. This misl

Your understanding of this issue is much better than many HNers on the reason why the "concentration camp" exist. Most HNers get all information from West Media with many convincing "evidence" with map and photo analysi

Agree. A lot of Chinese like Google more than Baidu but they have no choice. I have no problem to use Google as I'm now in China but a lot of normal people don't know how to get around GFW.

The behaviour of these guys you observed is already implying something: They are a little bit special. If you have a few Chinese friends, ask them if they know about "独运轮". Ask a few, preferablly with no strong political opinions.

I personally think the reward system related current human evolution punishes blunt liars, but reward "Lie Lie" teller. A "Lie" is something that is easy to falsify with consensus. A "Lie Lie" is not a lie but

What China is doing in Africa is a little different from what US and Eurapa did: China is less likely to make judgement on the African's own internal affair but more focus on the reward/risk of project success. The consequence is:

I can explain where your astonishing comes form(maybe off topic): there are something to do with how China built the nation yet not quite visible to westerners. There are many factors. One important factor which amplifies other factors is r

Let's leave the topic of Google issue. Did you see my 2nd sentence which implied I was lying? Which almost means making a baseless claim? You assumed that I assume he was lying only because he didn't cite source. That assumption

Totally agree with you. I guess that's the real reason that many Chinese googler don't want to sign. I'm totally against censorship. But I also don't agree the those who see themselves stand on the moral high ground whil

Can confirm your confirm is fabricated from thin air. The difference would be: you might not know you are lying while I do. We are doing the same thing, confirm something not conformable. Theoretically that's lying

Here's very interesting difference of 2 cases about the statement "China violated many US IPs": 1.US IPs are violated in China. 2.Chinese government deliberately let Chinese companies violate US IPs. They are not the same me

The movie mentioned in the report triggered a lot of discussions online. One question that troubled many Chinese was: Why Chinese need to smuggle cheap drugs instead of producing their own equivalent. The difference is obviously the IP cost

This is somewhat a reason that although a lot of educated Chinese people might not totally agree with the policy of the government , they understand the reason behind the strict media control. However their different altitude from average w

Bloomberg already use the story in a wrong way which the original source didn't agree. But let's go deeper: 1. In first report, Bloomberg have strong specific claims: China already hacked the server used in some big companies. it

Are you saying Mainstream Media is not neutral? Where you get that impression? or just your personal opinion? If it's not neutral, what's the neutral equivalent? Where do you see tribalism? Another thing I found that it seems to m

They are not necessary lying. But Journalists (and also politicians, lawyers, etc.) have a tendency to wrap a suspicion into a conclusion. That's more deceptive than propaganda because the authors believe their conclusions. Here the tr

The common factors of three cases I can see: 1.The lies were used to create hostility of public towards another country. 2.A lie was not considered as a lie at the time when the lie was presented. 3.Public don't remember the history an

I would blatantly present two debatable claims: 1.The intelligence flaw is a high order lie in order to mislead public to believe the war is launched by wrong information. It's not. The intelligence flaw is irrelevant or is intentional
