Nobody in China will refuses friendly foreigners, just like nobody refuses money. After you so-called racism happened in guanzhou(actually a forced testing for COVID-19 for Illegal staying people There),the local gov acted very quickly and stepped in to get things in control unlike YOU and your president kept making racism statements. - UP: 8

在中国没有人会拒绝友好的外国人，就像没有人抵制金钱一样。 在你们所谓的种族主义事件发生在广州(实际上是对非法居留者的强制检测)之后，当地政府迅速采取行动，介入控制局面，不像你们，你们的总统不断发表种族主义声明。

Do you know why the Chinese government still says, "China is the second-largest economy" although the fact is the Chinese economy is already bigger than that of the US? China knows some Americans will be offended even if that is fact. So, just keep saying "the second-largest economy." Why matter? China has verified Apollo was fake with the Chang'e-2 photos. there is nothing on the moon. But, China wouldn't say anything because it will offend some Americans. Just let NASA keeps claiming that American landed on the moon. Why matter? I think the Chinese leaders understand the arrogance of American. You do not tell "Stupid" to an arrogant person. - UP: 19

你知道为什么中国仍然说“中国是第二大经济体” ，尽管事实是中国的经济规模已经超过美国？中国知道一些美国人会被触怒，即使这是事实。 所以，继续说“第二大经济体”，为什么这么重要？中国用嫦娥二号的照片证实阿波罗号是假的。 月球上什么都没有。 但是，中国不会说任何话，因为这会触怒一些美国人。 就让美国宇航局一直宣称美国人登上了月球。 为什么这么重要？ 我认为中国领导人理解美国人的傲慢。 你不能骂一个傲慢的人“蠢货”。

This man is right. Americans watch 1 hour of news on their favorite news station and not only believe what their told about China without questioning it, but then they think their experts on China affairs. They jump to Criticize China for doing things that the US is guilty of doing itself. In fact, every time I study a topic, I come to find out that the US is usually the guilty party with their racism, expansionism, mercantilism, and greed. - UP: 40

这个人说得对。美国人在他们最喜欢的新闻台上看一个小时的新闻，不仅对中国的报道不加质疑，而且他们认为自己是中国事务专家。 他们跳出来批评中国做了美国自己也做过的事情。 事实上，每次我研究一个话题，我都会发现美国通常是种族主义、扩张主义、重商主义和贪婪的罪魁祸首。

We don't need to go to China to know Chinese people, just go o to San Gabriel Valley in California. Tens of THOUSANDS of mainland Chinese live there and they only speak Mandarin. They come to the USA to have their babies so they can get a proper education. if China was so special why dont foreigners in China do the same?? we all know the answer. - UP: 1

我们不需要去中国就可以了解中国人，只要去加利福尼亚的圣加布里埃尔谷就可以了。 成千上万的大陆人住在那里，他们只会说普通话。 他们来美国是为了生孩子，这样他们就可以得到适当的教育。 如果中国这么特别，为什么在中国的外国人不也这样做呢？我们都知道答案的。

说实话，亚洲式蹲厕的设计角度和位置都是最符合人类大便方式的。早在现代化以前，没有坐便器。

@Iphone12i is that the kind you have to squat? Lol I never tried it, but how difficult could it be? I remember someone telling me, crouching while you shit helps it come out easier. Also when I save up more money I’m definitely going to visit China! I want to go to Shanghai and beautiful Yunnan province.❤️☺️ i American btw - UP: 10

就是必须蹲着的那种吗？哈哈， 我从来没有试过，但是这能有多难呢？我记得有人告诉我，当你大便的时候，蹲下来可以更容易出来。当我存更多的钱的时候，我一定要去中国！我想去上海和美丽的云南省。 顺便说下我是美国人

​@Jimmy Yep! I want to revisit China as well. In Shanghai, the best experience for me was the metro systems, it's cheap and fast. I haven't been to Yunnan yet but I definitely will in the future! Next time I'm visiting Beijing too. I can't wait to see the new mega airport! The designs and outside view looks SO COOL. - UP: 8

没错！我也想再次去趟中国。在上海，对我来说最好的体验是地铁系统，又便宜又快捷。我还没有去过云南，但是将来一定会去的！下次我也要去北京。我迫不及待地想看到那座新的大型机场！设计和外观看起来非常酷。

Michael Griswold because the hegemony created after WWII, US controlled the most of world resources and absorbed most of the talented scientists all around the world. Cuz during WWII, the US mainland was not involved, hence US had the best chance of developing better than any other countries that were seriously demolished in WWII! - UP: 1

因为二战后美国建立的霸权，控制了世界上最多的资源，吸收了世界上最多的有才华的科学家。 因为在第二次世界大战期间，美国大陆没有参与，因此美国比任何其他在二战中被严重摧毁的国家有更好的发展机会！

Lack of information and lack of interest... I find it interesting that it's exactly how Chinese elite were during the 18th and 19th century. It's what brought China lagging behind. I hope everyone learns from this mistake. I also hope that the Chinese won't make the same mistake twice. It was a heavy price to pay and some of the problems have long term effects. For example Hongkong, and Taiwan. - UP: 0

缺乏信息和没有兴趣... 我觉得很有意思的是，这正是18世纪和19世纪中国精英的样子。这就是中国落后的原因。 我希望大家从这个错误中吸取教训。 我也希望中国不要再犯同样的错误。 这是一个沉重的代价，其中一些问题会产生长期影响。 例如香港和台湾。

@NC That’s true, many Chinese want to live here in America and study here. I’ve had many Chinese friends growing up. I guess, not many Americans study overseas in China? I’m not saying Chinese university is inferior, I think most Americans find it difficult to learn Chinese/mandarin. Also, the censorship could be unattractive to us.. Visiting as tourists though should be encouraged! I want to visit China soon as possible! I want more Americans to do so as well! ❤️✨ - UP: 1

没错，许多中国人想在美国生活和学习。 我从小到大有很多中国朋友。 我想，在中国留学的美国人不多吧？ 我不是说中国的大学不好，我认为大多数美国人觉得学中文 / 普通话很难。 此外，我们可能对审查机制不感冒... 尽管如此，作为游客访问应该推荐！我想尽快访问中国！我希望更多的美国人也这样做！

For now, in order for them to make their point to the rest of the world, she still needs to have a good command of English . And for that she does not have to rely on 1.4 billion. She has enough millions of return students from England , Canada, Australia and America. - UP: 0

由于英国殖民征服，世界讲英语。由于类似的原因，在未来的时间里，世界也会慢慢地说中文，但只是不是现在。
就目前而言，为了让他们向世界表明自己的观点，她还需要很好地掌握英语。 为此，她不必依赖14亿人口。 她有数百万从英国、加拿大、澳大利亚和美国回国的学生。

I am 3rd generation Canadian who has vacationed extensively in USA, but in 2014 spent 1/2 a year traveling through China. My eyes  were opened, all my life the western propaganda machine had me believing lies. Walking at night in the down town of major cities in China is safe while trying that in Atlanta  or Phoenix, or Miami or Los Angeles is a life threatening experience. I've seen both. America thinks it's free because  you can change the government.  BUT GOVERNMENT WARS NEVER STOP because the elected officials answer only to corporations and CASH.  In China they can't change the government but they are more free to change government policy.  Like the policy that pulled 800 million people out of poverty.  No American wants to have perpetual war and yet they do. No Chinese wants perpetual war so they don't.  Who has more control.  Who has more freedom? In China if you want policy changes you either organize a peaceful public display about what needs changing or join the Communist party to effect change from within. We in the west must stop being so hypocritical, changing our government changes nothing. We in the west must start understanding that other systems work as well and perhaps better than ours. We meddle in the affairs of virtually every country in the world .- UP: 89

我是第三代加拿大人，经常在美国度假，但在2014年，我花了半年的时间在中国旅行。我的眼睛睁开了，我的一生都被西方的宣传机器骗了。晚上在中国主要城市的市中心散步很安全，而在亚特兰大、凤凰城、迈阿密或洛杉矶散步则是一种危及生命的体验。两者我都见过。美国认为它是自由的，因为你可以改变政府。但是政府的斗争永远不会停止，因为民选官员只对公司和现金负责。在中国，他们不能改变政府，但他们可以更自由地改变政府政策。比如让8亿人摆脱贫困的政策。没有一个美国人想要永久的战争，然而他们这样做了。没有一个中国人想要永久的战争，所以他们不想这样做。谁的控制权更大。谁有更多的自由？在中国，如果你想改变政策，你要么组织一场和平的公开演说，告诉公众什么需要改变，要么加入党，从内部实现改变。我们西方人必须停止这么虚伪了，改变我们的政府并不会改变任何事情。我们西方人必须开始认识到，其它体系也同样有效，甚至可能比我们的更好。 我们干涉了世界上几乎每一个国家的事务。

The world should realise that American are not generous and never altruistic. Europe was not liberated by America. America continued where Germany left off.. by way of Nato, Portsdow treaty, Bretton Wood, IMF, World Bank, These are indirectly but effectively American colonising tools. - UP: 12

世界应该认识到，美国人既不慷慨，也从不利人。 欧洲没有被美国解放。 美国继续着德国未完成的事业。通过北约，波茨道条约，布雷顿森林，国际货币基金组织，世界银行，这些都是间接但有效的美国殖民工具。

my love of chinatown started when I was young and took the train to chicago chinatown to see the bright neon lights and endless choice of restaurants from cantonese to sichuan. the calligraphy and chinese art was beautiful to me. when I had the chance to go to China I was in awe I mostly went to southern china hong kong,shenzhen,dongguan. these cities are growing fast and modernizing. anyways, I think highly of China as a country with ancient civilization and forward thinking government. - UP: 8

我对唐人街的热爱始于我年轻时，当时我乘火车去芝加哥的唐人街，看到明亮的霓虹灯和绵延不绝的餐馆，从广东菜到四川菜，应有尽有。书法和中国艺术对我来说很美。当我有机会去中国的时候，我很敬畏，我大部分时间都是去华南，香港，深圳，东莞。这些城市发展迅速，现代化程度很高。 不管怎么说，我高度认为中国是一个文明古国，政府具有前瞻性。

Can you tell me what percentage of China's 1.3 billion people have NEVER traveled abroad? I'm willing to bet it's a much higher percentage overall to Americans! - UP: 1

你能告诉我中国13亿人口中有多少百分比的人从未出过国吗？ 我敢打赌，总的来说，这个比例比美国人要高得多！

@Muhamad Aiman what is your point? because china is an emerging world power, the numbers of foreign tourist are of course lower. however, chinese foreign tourism is rising well over 12% every year. the american numbers are going down. plus, the fact remains that most americans are weary of everything outside their comfort zone and are ill informed about other cultures. your argument bears no relevance, because what you are trying to do, is blame-shifting. when you can't win, you accuse the other party of the same. very weak. - UP: 5

你想说什么？ 由于中国是一个新兴的世界大国，外国游客的数量当然要低一些。 然而，中国的出国旅游正以每年超过12% 的速度增长。 美国人的旅游人次在下降。 另外，事实上大多数美国人对舒适区以外的一切都感到厌倦，并且对其他文化知之甚少。 你的论点毫无意义，因为你想做的，就是推卸责任。 当你赢不了的时候，你也会指责对方。 弱爆了。

Totally agree with you sir. Same happened to me as 2 years ago I went Guangzhou, China. Before I go, I thought China is a bit outdated and behind my country (I'm a Malaysian Chinese, and my ancestor were from China btw) so just go enjoy my holiday. That trip changed my perspective about China towards technology, speed, scale and culture. I have high respect to China now. When you think you are great? There are more out there greater than us. Stay humble. - UP: 12

完全同意，先生。同样的事情也发生在我身上，就像两年前我去中国广州一样。在我去之前，我以为中国有点落后，相比我的国家更落后(我是马来西亚华人，我的祖先来自中国)，然后去享受我的假期了。那次旅行改变了我对中国的科技、速度、规模和文化的看法。我现在对中国非常尊敬。当你认为自己很棒的时候，还有更多比我们更伟大的存在。保持谦逊。

是的，对于那些想去中国旅游的游客来说，厕所是个很重要的问题。

I'm a New Yorker currently in China. After 2 years I can honestly say... The traditional Eastern style of toilet is actually better.... But even in my apartment I've got 2 western toilets. - UP: 1

我是一个目前生活在中国的纽约人。 生活两年之后，我可以如实地说... 传统的东方式的厕所实际上更好... 但即使在我的公寓里，我也有两个西式厕所。

Good talk and totally confirms my thought that most Americans don't exactly travel or bother to read and research to verify facts from fictionised news. Very arrogant and great at pointing out injustice done by other nations but completely blind to what's being perpetrated in own country. Just plain sad that they can be so easily manipulated by the government that is behaving like a school junior going round other nations to bad mouth other government. - UP: 1

很好的演讲，完全证实了我的想法，即大多数美国人并没有真正的旅行，也不会费心去阅读和研究来核实新闻中的虚构事实。 非常傲慢，擅长指出其他国家所做的不公，但却完全无视自己国家正在犯下的罪行。简单地说，他们可以很容易被政府操纵，这种行为就像一个小学生到其他国家去说其他国家政府的坏话。

A lot of Americans, like myself, would love to visit other countries (especially China) but can't afford to.
So we watch people live fun lives and travel on device screens. - UP: 0

很多美国人，像我一样，都很想去其他国家(特别是中国)旅游，但是没钱去。
所以我们在手机屏幕上看人们过着有趣的生活和旅行。

Hahahaha this reminds me of that dinner party where I was asked if I live in a tree, to which I said "of course, the higher up the tree, the better bc it fetches a real estate premium. And we get to swing from tree to tree! So much fun.' When I finished, i have the ignoramus looking embarrassed and keeping quiet. - UP: 2

哈哈哈哈，这让我想起了一次晚宴上，有人问我是否住在树上，我说：“当然，树越高，房地产溢价就越高。我们可以在树之间荡秋千！非常有意思。”当我说完的时候，我让那个无知的人看起来很尴尬，然后沉默了。

my American friend told me the majority of amercicans are scare to death going to China because they were told since kindergarten that China is dangerous, America is the best and safest place. and he laughs saying they would never know China is THE SAFEST PLACE in the world and compare to China many US places are just like cesspool - UP: 0

我的美国朋友告诉我，大多数美国人都害怕去中国，因为他们从幼儿园起就教育说中国很危险，美国是最好最安全的地方。
他笑着说，那些人永远不会知道中国是世界上最安全的地方，与中国相比，美国的许多地方就像粪坑一样。

I came from a Southeast Asian country now working in the US and I still can remember on our primary school we learnt not just the history of our country but also the history of Asia. We have a little bit of history on ASEAN, Japan, China, India, Mesopotamia and Middle East. At such an early age we are taught that we lived in such a big family with different cultures, practices.In the US, history is all about America and less about the world. This explains of the American mindset of exceptionalism - UP: 0

我来自一个东南亚国家，现在在美国工作，我仍然记得在我们的小学，我们不仅学到了我们国家的历史，也学到了亚洲的历史。 我们对东盟、日本、中国、印度、美索不达米亚和中东有一定的了解。 在我们很小的时候，我们就被教导我们生活在一个拥有不同文化、不同习俗的大家庭里。在美国，教的历史是关于美国的，而不是关于世界。 这就解释了美国人的例外主义心态。
