Hanjians will never admit the error of their ways unless forcefully made to; their personal constitution is one of extreme selfishness, and will actively enrich themselves regardless of the cost to others. Trying to make the case of moral superiority will not work on them.You would not be pacifying them; you would be teaching them the errors of their ways by demonstrating a clear economic and moral superiority to the West.
Bringing them to your side is detrimental in the long term too as they will corrupt your system to benefit themselves. Suppression and pacification is the only way to go.
In real life, what you might find is that when food is withheld, the homeless man starts vandalizing your home in addition to sh*tting, pissing, and puking more all over the place. Don't assume benevolence or decency unless proven. Those with less to lose can and will stoop to lows unpalatable to you in order to beat you.I think the metaphor can be clarified in the sense that the homeless man defecating on my front step relies on me for food. So, if I stop feeding him, he'll stop defecating on my step. Either by way of a lack of intestinal byproduct due to starvation, or because of a conscious decision. But I understand that for many this course of action may be too slow and may also backfire due to the amount of time required to execute.
我觉得你可能刚刚出了国,还没看透国外的人真正怎么看世界。
Bad sample - Shanghai is notorious for its 反贼.I agree with the views you express. I don't want to cause a regionalist breakdown of civil conversation, but in my experience interacting with young Chinese in the Shanghai urban area, there is an alarmingly high rate of 反党. Perhaps this is sampling bias. These are also perhaps the originators of the online presence you mention.
