@@RU-vidisgettingworse. Yes! Something like that. But should include the countries that are really struggling these days for a better future similar to what Europe has struggled for the past 200 years
This what happen when people hear read freedom and democracy sad for those people later on will be rich and leave poor people and not care just like here western we just live poor die and we move on
@Le Panzer Guy The Chinese anthem is about the Chinese people rising up to resist oppression. It's based on the Chinese anti-Japanese resistance during WW2. It makes no mention of the CPC, Mao, communism, capitalism, etc. It's purely a song about liberation, and it's actually a really good piece of music when you look at it by itself. It can represent the Chinese people's desire for liberation, whether from imperial Japan, or their current government.
It is ironic that a bureaucratic capitalist government call itself a "special socialist country" and arrests the workers who are defending their legal rights.Sometimes Chinese government even arrests the workers who are begging for their pay that Chinese Capitalists promised to give but never give because "Workers picked a quarrel and made their boss unhappy".As a communist myself, I don't understand what kind of quarrel did the arrested workers had picked.Is there any "special socialist" could give me any explanation about this?
@@erenyeager6478 As a Cantonese speaker I would say, it's indeed is one of the Chinese Languages. Chinese is not a single language, but it consists of different languages spoken in Chinese proper, using the same writing system. Like Mandarin in this video, Hokkien, Hakka, Cantonese, Wuyue, Jinyu and more. You may think they were same or dialects as their writing system are the same, but in fact, their Pronunciation can be quite different, like Mandarin have only 4 tones and Cantonese have like 9 tones, that are enough to be classify more than a dialect. Also Mandarin were envolved by time by the Northern Chinese Dialects, while Cantonese were envolved differently originated from Southern dialects Middle Chinese, by time and geographical difference that enough to make them more than a dialect, dispite they could be both classified as members of Chinese Languages. Go read facts and history about them and study the difference between Mandarin and Cantonese. You would see.
I am from Hongkong and am interested in military/patriotic songs worldwide of different age so I have been paying attention to your channel. I participated in the anti-elab protest and am sorry to point out that this is not the version that was sung by Hongkongers. But I am really grateful that you published a series of songs about HK and am also very happy to see the stand with HK comments down below. I really wish you could remake a version with cantonese singing (hongkong indigenous language, verbally spoken by ALL locals) with subtitles in traditional Chinese, as using mandarin with simplified Chinese is something that is against our cultural identity. I wish for your understanding and am willing to provide as much assistance on the lyrics and soundtrack as I can if you are willing to make another video. Please stay safe during the Wuhan virus outbreak and do not believe in your government if they side with CCP or the WHO, who probably do not care about your safety and health.
Why was the pandemic generally curb in a country which the goverment "do not care about safety and health"?Beside why is the pandemic still deteriorating in democracies?
@@shuanghu6371 i hv no intension to spark an argument here at least u tried to reason with me but obviously certain governement has priority which ur right of existence is not their top concern. they do want to stop a pandemic but it would be naive to believe ur safety and health are the reasons behind.
@@bullhuss hk should be ruled by the hk people alone. british and chinese are both colonisers by nature who share no difference. but if i hv to judge id say yes. there are people who are pro-colonial in this camp just im not one of them.
@Jonathan Williams That's what I'm thinking too. If China feels like it has to resort to gun violence to stop the riots, it will. If the protesters then have no means to fight back there will be no freedom for Hong Kong.
I don't know how many of the people in Hong Kong want independence, but it wouldn't matter as they can't just declare independence from China. The mainland government is in control of Hong Kong and its government
@@1000eau "The colors of the pales (the vertical stripes) are those used in the flag of the United States of America; White signifies purity and innocence, Red, hardiness & valour"
If Hong Kong was to somehow manage independence (say, the mainland collapses under the weight of corruption and HK escapes in the chaos), I suspect their new flag would likely feature the Flower without the communist stars, a Blue or Black background instead of commie red, and maybe a Union Jack in the corner, depending on what sort of relationship they secured with the Commonwealth.
Some of these lyrics are eerily similar to the words of the actual Chinese anthem (which is actually a song about resisting Imperial Japanese invasion, fun fact), and also the Internationale. In fact, all the lyrics are very Internationale-esque.
The Free world is with Hong Kong! Blue or Red we shall never let Democracy die. Democracy dies in darkness so do not ever let the flames of liberty extinguish.
@Ingen Although this song is used by the Hong Kong Protesters in the early stages of the protests, this version is in mandarin, not in Cantonese, the official language in Hong Kong. Moreover, the subtitles are in simplified Chinese, while Hong Kong uses traditional Chinese.
All empires collapse one day, may the PRC fall soon! Freedom to Hongkong! Freedom to Macau! Freedom to East-Turkestan! Freedom to Tibet! Freedom to Inner-Mongolia! Freedom to China!
Never lose hope. We americans support you in your fight against your Bolshevik oppressors! Today, we free hong kong, tommorow Tibet, one day China as a whole will wake up free from its opressors!
The way this song talks of suffering echoes these immortal words: “Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
Bro is killing 60 million peole massacre ping the Tibetans sending Muslims to camps and police brutality and the imprisonment of protesters freedom and that’s only in china @@adefhd
Literally every single video I watch is automatically set to the highest quality possible despite being on data save mode Yet when I watch this it’s locked at 144p
Hong Kong people sing the english and cantonese versipn, but this is a mandarin version. But i like this version nevertheless, much stronger than the cantonese version
By the way Ingen, at 1:21 a better translation would be "sacrifice is at least better than a burdened living". In this context “总” mean at least, not always, and 荷 doesn't really mean careless
OKAY... This will be the world anthem in the present so that the people will hear this in English and in international Languages for sure if we want the people in this world it will have a lot of advances on what to do in the future not just for our countries but for the people and the children as well cause this will be our rally song forever more. P.S til the end of time.
