Imo the reason for their answer is precisely development, since Asian Americans responding with don't know for those countries is basically saying that they're poor countries that aren't as wealthy or cool as Korea and Japan, but the American media doesn't portray them as enemies so, "no opinion, but awesome food btw."

As for the diaspora, simply put since American coverage of their nations is rather favorable as "allies" against China, they feel more comfortable saying they have favorable views of their native land.
It's because they don't dare say they have a negative view.

Why is India trying so hard to diversify from using only the US dollars? Is India seeing some future financial catastrophes or just insurance against possible US future mischiefs? Maybe both.

It's both. Given how erratic the US have become (assuming it's not an act), it's best to avoid keeping all your eggs in one basket. I'm expecting The West to turn up the heat as India continues to remain an ally to Russia.


Few are interested in returning home. However, Chinese-speakers are far more willing to return. This is part of the reason why preserving cultural and linguistic heritage is critical to resisting brainwashing.

It's really more about skills atrophy than 'brainwashing.' This is especially true for the first batch of immigrants to their new home as there are no support services. And parents just get lazy over the generations in preserving their heritage especially when their children have no chance of interacting with others of the same heritage. Just look at the European immigrants that lived in the USA over many generations, how many of them retained their mother tongue? Astronomically small.

Mass shooting is spreading to NZ. This is the second time that happened in recent years.

Article excerpt:

The reported shooting casts a cloud over the 2023 Women’s World Cup, which is set to kick off later on Thursday in Auckland.


Hmmm...perhaps someone doesn't want New Zealand to have a successful event.

Tbh I think it's a very accurate representative of my personal experiences. The sad truth is that Chinese Americans are mostly anti-China / anti-Chinese. Imagine being this mentally cucked. I think the views are also stratified along the lines of gender as Chinese men and women are treated extremely differently.

These polls are interesting but doesn't really reflect the nuances for the casual observer, its just good propaganda for the anti-china folks.

Strong American anti-china propaganda for centuries, centuries of conflict between Big China vs sk/japan/philliphines/korea/etc , most American Chinese being from HK/Taiwan/Escape CCP( during the low period)/Vietnam, Strong softpower of SK/Japan will equal low polling for China.

The majority of American Chinese will not move to China because most of them have very low connections with China. Even if that was not the case, most are non-competitive to the locals and others realistically knows that getting residency would be difficult.

that's because Germans suffered cultural gen.o.cide. Germans have been in the US since the first wave of immigration in the 1600's and German was a major language up to 1914.

There's actually a fuck ton of US internally aimed Mandarin language propaganda that is 100% scrubbed from the mainland market, such as by Falun Gong, Guo Wengui, etc and it has been ramping up over the past 7 years since 2016.

They are FAR more batshit crazy than English language media, and we all know how batshit that is. We're talking stuff like justifying and simultaneously denying the genocide of Native Americans.

Chine-language Twitter is batshit crazy too. Utterly toxic. Chinese-origin cults like Falun Gong gained a lot of influence. We have Republican politicians linking articles from their media. Considering what they usually publish, them gaining enough following to influence politics doesn't speak well for American education system. Most dissident cult media claims are stone cold low IQ stuff.

Anyway, I am completely OK with Chinese-cults and Indian-American politicians dumbing down the US governance even more.

The mayor still speaks English with that Chinglish accent from Hong Kong. Everyone likes Olivia.

:p
Anyone wanna bet that she's gonna be used as a scapegoat for all of TO's failings? She's certainly been dealt a bad hand from the very start.

The move forward party's Harvard grad's hope to become the next Thai P.M. has been dashed by the highest court ordering him to be removed from the assembly. Who's going to be the next Thai P.M. and how is the move forward party going to "move forward" with their agenda when it's clearly against the conservatives of that country who's firmly opposed to their plans like softening the rules against Royal Family....
