Truth about China? Tell me! William Kai Stephanos

Truth is truth...I want an honest answer to these questions from a Chinese person. I don't understand the loyalty to the CCP. It can be done another way. The Chinese people can do it without the CCP. That is not the only option. Why is that always such a sticking point? There have been many changes of power in China in history.

"Scholars estimate 16.5 to 40 million people died during the great leap famine in China. In his October 2005 essay in COMMENTARY, Arthur Waldron describes the architect of China's Cultural Revolution this way: Mao was the greatest mass murderer of the 20th century. Much of the killing was direct, as in the torture and purges at Yanan. After the Communist seizure of power in 1949, the practice became countrywide."

I think the Chinese people should be given a lot more credit than the government [CCP]. Government, after all, is only made of people. If the Cultural Revolution had never happened, China would be far more advanced now. The CCP's usefulness was as a militaristic power in uniting the country, true, but in internal affairs it has failed miserably. The CCP starved its own people by the millions. A more advanced representational system with checks and balances would have sped up China's development decades and decades ago.  It is still stalling progress as it desperately tries to hold onto power. I believe in the Chinese people, all ethnicities of them, but not the CCP.

Why be loyal to a regime that is cruel and corrupt? The people of China can do much better.

The Chinese youth will rise up against the CCP. It is inevitable.
