We have a very unique way of life and goverments

But you can try and tell me why you think the way you do.

I didn't mean anything by asking that. I was honestly curious about your opinion.

But even if the majority of people in China don't like Western stuff it would be really odd that not even a tiny segment of them would want to occasionally consume Western ideas/entertainment/music. Why aren't those people at least given the option?
Why is this so difficult to explain to the west? We can see and get anything in China as long as it is on our programs. We have porn, all International music, we can see everything except those things on certain western sites. It's not like we have a government that hides stuff, it's a matter of the governments trying to protect the west from talking nonsense and political/economic reasons. Business sanctions.

I think the west has a very uninformed view of who we are. Do you like our movies and pop stars? Can you eat three big meals for less than $3 a day? Can you travel on 3000miles on the worlds fastest train for less than $100? Do you know how we apply Confucius values in our culture, at home, at school etc.?
Men are born ignorant, not stupid. They are made stupid by education.

The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd.
