Generally, what I learned in China is that the people there value stability and fear chaos more than anything. They would rather have a extremely strong government with an iron grip over society then to risk what they perceive to be the chaos of a full democracy. Looking at the current situation in the United States, it is hard not to argue that they have a point to some degree. They know something bad happened there and even if their government is at fault, it has been long enough that they aren’t burning hot with anger over it. Americans are similar about their governments crimes in the past.

Wow… the chaos happening in America is not due to democracy. People might think that, but I don’t see how 2 seconds of critical thought applied could let that idea stand.

Right, like how everyone kinda just accepts that slavery happened right? Or that time the US military mowed down protestors in front of the white house?
