This still feels a touch biased -- there's no explanation of how China's democratic process works, for example. But at least it admits that the system is working.
It's definitely biased, you can immediately tell from the use of CCP. But it is a surprisingly honest assessment for a mainstream western source, and a kind of thing that can be shared with libs without them shutting down immediately.
What's funny is the author is Chinese and faculty at Peking University, but went to US universities up to the PhD level.
From what I know it's a fairly common thing too, hence why there are a bunch of libs in China now who went through indoctrination in US education system. Hopefully that trend will stop now that the US is doing witch hunts and Chinese universities are starting to be seen as being of a similar standard.
I sure hope so. The last thing China needs is a generation of liberals interrupting their progress
Given how things are going in the west, I doubt anybody is going to see liberalism as a viable way forward now.
