I was invited to China twice as a photographer. I was so prejudiced about China the first time I went. But I realized that these prejudices were all formed by the influence of anti-propaganda about China in the West, and they were all destroyed. Now I love China and the Chinese people, they are respectful, smiling, friendly and good people.

I am a native New Yorker and I have lived in China for many years and I can speak the language fluently. I felt that many times I had way more freedom in China that I did in New York. Here are the reasons I felt they had more freedom in China than New York. Just like that man if you want to, and I don’t, drink beer, you can drink a beer outside. Nobody will say anything to you. If you talk to people randomly or arbitrarily, you will not get treated as a weirdo or a crazy yet try that in New York they’ll think you’re totally nuts and a creeper. I could also have really cool conversations with people sometimes spending for a few hours. People in New York act like they can’t be bothered for five minutes. Although these freedoms are not something that comes from the government per se, it does make me question why in many parts of America we’ve become so uptight, and controlled.

I visited Hong Kong and Shenzhen China back in 2018. It was the best two weeks of my life. I didn't want to come home. I felt safe everywhere I went at any time of the day or night. When i came back to America and got in my car to go home i discovered that someone had stolen the catalytic converter off my car. I wish I could go back and stay there.

In fact, the biggest danger for Chinese people is because they are used to safety. Many Chinese people have no sense of danger. For example, many people put their valuables aside, put their luggage on the seat at the train station and leave, and they may go shopping or board. The restroom, but they don’t worry that their backpacks will be taken away when they come back. This habit has caused many Chinese, especially young people, to be easily cheated or stolen when they travel abroad, because they think that the whole world is as safe as China.

US allows guns on the street but not beer? That sounds foolish.

Being able to do drugs on the street, but not beer, American law sounds like a joke.

You are right. I went to Xi’an a few years ago. The city is super clean and safe. The food is so good. Mass transportation is clean and cheap. The local people are friendly too. Looking forward to visit China again ^^😊

Chinese people are really friendly!

The BBC would say the type of tree is a fake one

4:15 You forgot to mention that in America that tree would probably have bullet holes throughout its trunk.

Mate ... so true. As a White Aussie male, I walked about China feeling safe, even at 3am in the morning. But I did NOT feel safe in USA. My mind was on their STUPID Gun laws that allow citizens to carry guns ... and they have over 40,000 Gun related deaths EVERY YEAR (compared to virtually ZERO Gun related deaths EVERY YEAR in every other Developed Countries in the the World). Also in USA I was warned NOT to go out in NYC of LA after Midnight ... and NOT to go to certain suburbs in the City ... at all. Police in China carry NO GUNS and a Civic Police. In USA, Police have an arsenal of weapons in their utility belts (gun, taser, hand cuffs, ties, pepper spays ...) and are Militia Police. You do NOT approach USA Police in the wrong way, because they can shoot you dead.

China is a great place. Is good to see people telling the true about that beaultiful country.

Your son is bilingual at such a young age, amazing

One thing you missed. What you just did in the day, you can also do that in the night in China.

Someone has never been to New orleans. You can walk around with open containers of alcohol

i live in canada and have a friend who was diagnosed with lukemia stage 4 cancer. he was given 2 months to live by canadian/western doctors and they said that there was nothing they could do for him... but china offers very advanced cancer treatment and took him in. now hes in remission, and its looking like he will SURVIVE! CHINA IS GREAT. respect from canada. our western politicians are failing, and soon we will revolt

With each video of yours, I become more enchanted with China. Quality of life, security and hospitality. I dream of visiting one day. Greetings from Brazil

Meaning of Freedom in America: Freedom in Abstract and Philosophical Ideas The Meaning of Freedom in China: Freedom Directly Practiced in Real Life at the Individual Level

Thing is, in America we don't want people drinking beer on the street since everyone is carrying a gun in their pocket.

Nice content, beautiful family! Best regards from Romania, also a free &safe country!

In China, parks are leisure places for children and the elderly.😅People can play in the park all night and no one will disturb you.

My relatives live in a wealthy downtown area of San Francisco.But however they told me they are afraid of going out at night because of the safety concerns. US is moving backwards these years.

Dude, your ignorance and oversimplification is Legendary!

4:40 i think that might have been a variety of Eucalyptus tree .. absolutely gorgeous.. and those enormous lily leaf flowers 🌸.. i will definitely be putting together an all inclusive China trip package in the future.. thank you for your videos..

中国的自由是集体制。欧美的自由是自私制。看看疫情时候。为了自由不戴口罩出门，那老年人被这些自私的人害死了。欧洲的自由是利己。中国的自由是不害人的情况下才有自由。骂政府的自由并不能改变什么。但是你官员做不好，就马上下岗问责。身家清白，做事认真才行。

One thing you forgot is you can walk around with a camera without being harassed by the police .😊

As an American, I'm still coping with the fact that I just got roasted for 9 minutes straight 🤣

Nice video man 👌💯

That’s really important, China is really safe, I live in Europe, there is a big difference.

You have to use a brown paper bag to cover your can or glass bottle of beer, if you decided to open it and drink them in public, and to challenge with police officers in the US😂 Wow Lincoln the 汉堡王子, is growing up now, a cute little boy😍

Excellent work! Please continue.

In Las Vegas, Nevada, you can drink beer 24 hours in the street.

America talks about freedom, but they have no idea what freedom means.

我還可以告訴你，中國警察動用槍械的門檻是很高的！日常巡邏，街頭打架鬥毆，警察處理都是不帶槍械的，如果一定要動用槍械，需要在對方明顯嚴重威脅警察安全，而且警察還必須有現場錄像自證清白！而且還必須口頭警告三次要動用槍械了＋對空鳴槍示警一次，無效之後才能使用槍械，而且還不能對嫌疑人重要部位開槍！！！而且事後還要寫材料證明＋現場處置錄像證明你沒有濫用槍械！！所以，到底誰在乎人權？？美國人最好閉嘴，不要講民主自由人權，因為你們不配！

Thank you for sharing. Well said.

Given a choice between drinking beer and being able to vote, you can have your beer, and i will keep my vote.

You can do this in Washington, DC. I assure you that you have 30 seconds at the most to enjoy it. Then your kids will need a new father. Our finest DC police can shoot and kill in 30 seconds without harming your child standing next to you.

US is declining in rapid phase.. many of their young kids working at warehouse.. they are not even going to college due to lack of education and financial problem.

I went to China the people are very kind and the service is the best in the world and it is very safe.Only downsides is the language barrier and most apps they use are not in English.

I live in Afghanistan, I used to think that only the police in Europe can have guns or nobody is allowed to throw cigarette butts, I thought I could have dinner in the parks Or out with my family at midnight in America.! 🤔

US logic: Kinderjoy snack illegal, Civil own Gun legal

在霉鍋你可以有一百種性取向的自由，但你没有坐在街道旁、公園裡開一瓶冰凉啤酒爽喝的自由！🤣🤣🤣

So true. Very good video!

Very cute kid. Oh, and thanks for the video! The more of these I watch, the more I am determined to visit China next year (2024).

I just love Jason making fun of amerika. I do it 5 times a day myself

Although I don't drink alcohol, yet when I see the security of the United States which is in 24hrs chaos, and the one in China where there is a lot of order and stability where the Chinese people are only busy with their own businesses, I am satisfied to live in China rather than US and other western nations. Jason, the Westerner who shares the truth on the ground with us. Thanks and greetings to you, your wife and Lincoln Jason from Ethiopia

Thank you for sharing.

Awesome, new sub here. 🙌

4:25 BBC told me it's a fake tree :D

In some states in the US, it's ok to steal up to $950 worth of goods with no consequence, in some states you can take drugs openly and no one cares.

I only spent 2 days in Beijing but everyone was very kind and gentle. I had come to get my brother and take him home after collapsing from a brain tumor. Spent the night in student housing which was more like a 4 star hotel.

Watching from 🇯🇲. China looks fascinating

in Merica you can carry a gun or do drugs on the street but you cannot drink a can of deer. 😅

Life is too short, too sweet, and live your life ✨️

So, 9 minutes of "I can drink a beer in China", and nobody is ever attacked in China. Right.

At the USA point of view, beer is more dangerous than guns.

Agree with you " Jason ". China freedom allow you can drinking a beer in the public area. U$ freedom allow you can carry gun in the public area. So which country people think is safe or dangerous and more freedom. Everyone pls just think !!!! 🤔 See the big different between China & U$ their freedom about 👍

the subway looks like horror movie😂😂😂

I love your videos. Keep up your good work.

BBCNN : That''s the last time you see this guy , he just open a beer !

The difference is that the criminality is very low because the citizens respect the law. That is the reason for all differences.

Thanks for speaking the truth! Hope more people can see it

A real experience of mine. There is a reinvigorated feeling you get when you stand on the bank of the Cumberland River, looking over the lined rows of white tombstones. Some unmarked, some rotting away. To look up, to see a symbol so familiar to you that even its presence reminds you of nothing but hope, nothing but freedom. You don’t know where it comes from, but the first note of a bugle plays. What you hear is the call TAPS. Played in remembrance to those who laid down their lives so that all may be free. To mourn and to cry for those lost, so that you may stand free, and so you may stand an individual, bears your heart. In China, you see a flag that only gained its place through overthrowing its OWN legitimate government and killing its brothers because of what other people thought. And then this idea is only enforced through bloodshed, costing 60 million lives of innocent people at the hands of their own country. To have, even in the modern day, camps for specific groups of people (Muslims in Xinjiang) in order to exterminate them, it is at this point you realize what you have. A flag with 50 stars and 13 stripes. A flag that waves at every school, every courthouse, and at every cemetery. When you see the protestors of Honk Kong waving that star spangled banner, you know that to them, it is the international symbol of freedom. The international symbol against tyranny and oppression. The flag is soaked in blood, but not with the blood of innocent civilians and lives, but of patriots willing to stain the flag with their blood because they know that without that flag, there is no freedom. I’ll end this here with some of my favorite quotes. “The American will die on his feet than to live on his knees.” -General George Washington “It is better to live in a dangerous democracy than a safe dictatorship.” -Thomas Jefferson “When a country fears its people, there is liberty.” -Thomas Jefferson

关于消费任何酒精类产品的问题。我住在中国和欧洲时，从来没认为这是个问题。但来到加拿大，被这种严格的管制吓到了。不是哪里都可以卖酒。超市餐馆要申请酒牌。超市晚上9点后，不允许卖酒。所有酒都只能在其政府控制的一个连锁店卖。我问我上司，她解释说，这里医疗保险是政府运行的，为了减少酗酒造成的成本，政府控制酒精类售卖。我觉得这可能是一开始北美还是蛮荒之地的时候的情况。但是过了几百年，难道欧洲人就有自制力，北美就没有?这完全就是政府想通过这个高税赚暴利。看看现在满街飘着的大麻味。手法如出一辙。用合法垄断手段，逼你消费高税收产品。至于医疗系统成本的增加，那是会计的事。什么人权自由?这是权力机构设置自由度的典型案例。你的权力要在我掌控的手心里。我见过很多次，尤其夏天，警察不去管流浪汉，抢劫，违规等，却追着享受阳光想来点小酒的市民开罚单。

Lincoln is very smart, can understand English and Chinese at a very young age

Thanks!

Now make a list of everything you can’t do in China

*_Oscar Wilde_* says, _"America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without (going thru' the process of) civilization._ 😅

My wife is from KunMing, another youtuber Lizzy is also in KunMing and she recently quoted one of your comment in her video. Enjoy the trip Jason, best wish to Jiao and Lincoln.

Everyone wants to talk shit about America until they need help. I choose dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery any day

To be fair, even as an American I am shocked by the sight of a rifle being carried around casually. My apartment complex for example, there was a guy who walked around waving his AR15 around in the apartment lobby....he was screaming obscenities and yelling at people...clearly not stable. Yet no one cared or did anything about it, people just shook their heads and walked away. It was ridiculous!

Btw, 4:18 the tree you talked is a forest red gum, also called Queensland blue gum (细叶蓝桉 Eucalyptus tereticornis). The trunk is straight, usually unbranched for more than half of the total height of the tree and can have a trunk of up to 1 metre or more wide, 50 m high.

Thank you for the constant content, I really enjoyed them

In Europe you can also sit in Public and drink beer, no Problem

Great to see your video.

Beers and soft drinks are very cheap in China.

Can I wear a t-shirt in public that says "Screw the CCP" or will the police deport me?

The Beer funny because while water skiing and Motocross Biking in the Grand Canyon on the Colorado River people were drinking beer everywhere 🤔

Welcome to my hometown - Kunming, which is also known as "Spring City，Because the temperature remains between 15-25 degrees Celsius throughout the year

Hi!, can you please make more videos about parks like these, they are absolutely amazing!

I opened a beer in america and licky i was wearing a bullet proof vest cause there was a cop behind me and when he heard the can of beer open he shot me 5 times . Because of the vest i was able to finish my beer quickly before i got arrested .

The tree in the park, if I'm not wrong, is an eucalyptus. There are a lot of those in my neighborhood in Colombia.

Thanks for your videos ! China is such a beautiful country and an amazing civilisation I hope to visit one day 😍 love from France

Really beautiful video, lovely life in China

I am fortunate that I am a US citizen. I am in Beijing. I am in a hurry to help the discourse difficulties. I encountered a lot of college students in Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications actually insult me. I am selling software US groups in China, customer service interrupted my speech

I love how China’s cities have trees and vegetation everywhere 😍

I like the tranquility embracing the elderly.

I was in Georgia and couldn't buy beer because it was Sunday its against the law to purchase or sell beer on Sundays, woman told me I could drive across the state line a few miles away get beer there but under NO circumstances have that beer anywhere in the car except for the trunk she told me even carrying beer in the car was an offence 😮

I lived in Chengdu, I had a great time, so safe and clean...they are well ahead...China❤❤

One thing you can’t do in China (legally at least) that you can do in America though, is watch this RU-vid video.

Thank you for being honest sir! Can you believe, what the word means by hypocrisy !

0:26 True. I was almost arrested when I was drinking beer with my friends in a park (not in street) 11 years ago in the US. Fortunately the 2 policemen didn't really arrest us bc I explained to them that I was not aware of this law and promised I wouldn't do the same thing again. Basically I think this is a stupid law anyway.

As A Local Hong Kong citizen, sometimes I get confused is China even safe, does it even have freedom. For some reason in my perspective the freedom is gone, the safety eh, recently we’ve got a few stabbing things happen.

Each time i watch your video, i desire to visit China. I pray it happens soon. Thank you for sharing this beautiful country with us.

Freedom is always relative. In China, there are very few incidents of drinking and rioting on the street, so you have the freedom to drink on the street. If you want to live in an orderly country, your words and deeds will inevitably be restrained, in exchange for a stable, safe, and efficient life.

I’m especially happy the older people can enjoy their lives in China. Recent Chinese immigrants to the USA who are hoping this racism is temporary will see their descendants ostracized for generations to come. Racism is pervasive and will never go away.

The irony about “public intoxication” law in the US, the streets are flooded with druggies walking around like zombies. And drunks too.

Wow. Interesting 😯

You didn't say, Here we areeeee.... Brother I'm Nigerian 🇳🇬 and you're the only one who opened eyes to China. I never wanted to go to the west or America, but china is convincing from your perspective. At least I'll come to China for business first. Thanks great work
