This is How The Chinese See The US In 2024 

21:23 Quite the opposite. This elder’s speech just proves that there is some freedom of speech in China.

China is VERY diverse. China's territory is as big as the United States. There are 56 ethnicities officially recognized by Chinese government, and many of those ethnicities have their own languages. China is not homogeneous. It is diverse.

I mean, you started saying thaat Chinese have lower prices because the workers are cheaper, but then you talk about electric cars... Cars are not manufactered, they have cheper cars because they heavily invested in public education and now they have better engineers. Also, China now is not the China of the 80s and 90s.

in the top 11 "developed" nations list the US is #1 in obesity, health-care bills, incarcerated people, pregnant teens, homelessness, illiteracy...WE ARE NUMBER 1

Hate to break it to you sir but the idea that Chinese TikTok somehow pushes educational content is just total US propaganda and you fell deep in it, as a Chinese American with both Apps, it’s complete nonsense😂😂

I'm surprised at how well rounded their responses were.

Like in Hong Kong, Some gov back interested group taught young kids to hate Chinese, and China gov, that is beyond any free speech. One rule, if a behavior cannot be tolerated in your country, don't practice that in other country.

16:05 Saying China is culturally homogenous is like claiming Africa is culturally homogenous, or Europe is culturally homogenous.

they have a shockingly positive view of the united states. they don't think the US is free but other than that they have a lot of respect for the US. most of Americas allies don't think as highly about the US.

Myself being educated in the USA, coming from an immigrant family, I would say I was very stressed out growing up here, partially due to unstable family dynamics, and also due to the need to climb into the middle class.

I hope Asian Boss makes one with American thoughts about China, that one will be very interesting, LOL

The dude here says "if they saw the American TikTok they would grasp it". Meanwhile, he didn't see the Chinese TikTok but he knows it's educational. We've witnessed a guy getting his propaganda crashed by Chinese laughing at the question "is tiktok educational in China?"

This dude got butthurt after hearing that Chinese lady explain DEI in a nutshell.

the guy at @10:21 was right on the money. If you want to get something closer to the actual truth, you need to look at various sources and look for things that overlap. I think one of the biggest issues with our US politics is that each major party's constitutes mostly watch the things that match their confirmation biases. That tunnel vision is probably one of the most damaging things about US media.

I say, go to China and see for yoyrself. As much as i would like to give you all the pros and cons of a country. At the end of the day, it is your own decision that matters. But what i can tell you is that China is much more developed and prosperous than you think and it is not as restricted as some people say. Go take a look.

Collectivism is not just Chinese, though. Japan is also an extremely collectivist country despite being much smaller in both area and population. Many Asian countries are. I think the reason why Asians seem like humble people in general is because of this lack of emphasis on individual glory. Duty to our groups - be it family, company or society is valued more than personal triumphs. When some athlete wins a gold medal, it’s always celebrated as the country’s victory rather than their own feat. In fact, it’s viewed as fulfillment of your responsibility to your country. That’s why they’re so image-based. If your personal triumph is the country’s, that means personal failings - like a DUI or drug possession - is also a failure to your country. Hence, public apologies are common even for these small offenses. I don’t know if it’s like that in China, but it’s that way in Japan. Just illustrating the depth of this collective mindset. 😅

Ban Tiktok is mainly about Israel among others i think...

Anyone in China can access RU-vid or FB or X etc etc via VPN. So it's either one wants or needs to access them. Not really about if they can or not. One can ask any foreigners living or working in China.

The information that Americans can access is controlled by several major media. Only after ordinary people spread it through Tiktok, other media have no choice but to follow up.

I appreciate your commentary on centrism, when polarization is rampant.

8:55 that is an incentive issue. The tolerance for any crime is extremely low in other countries. The very fact that we sympathize with people performing crime, lowers the threshold of desperation to do crime. We are to a point where some people steal just put of laziness and opportunity. If the penalty for theft is having your hand cut off, not many people will fathom stealing.

TikTok is not covered under the freedom of speech expressly. That right covers our ability to discuss the government in a negative and critical way, even, as it was pointed out, insulting political figures and leaders, especially through the form of media and press. IF there is an argument against banning TikTok, it would be in saying that it would restrict the flow of protected political speech, by removing a popular media outlet. However, I don't think that holds water. First, TikTok was offered the chance to sell, above market rate for sure. Second, there's simply too many other freely accessible outlets for free speech and media.

To be fair, it's one thing to not have lawsuits when running for political office, but it's another thing when you can't have lawsuits against you because of your political office.

How can you expect ro be free, while half the people support everything the founders warned us not to do, to stay free ?

Just saying in Italy I highly recommend locking your doors ‼️ Not that it will stop them because I have seen houses broken into in some crazy ways in Italy, but still lock them doors. 😂

You'll hear "Mei Guo" often in this interview. Mei Guo means America. But if you translates Mei Guo literally from chinese characters it means Mei - Beautiful. Guo - Country. Beautiful Country thats the name Chinese folks given to America just so you're aware:)

I thought the Chinese perspective here was more reasonable than I expected.

Rush Hour was one of my Favorite movies in the Early 2000s. . . True Story

😂😂😂Denial other's speech is the least free of speech. 😂

I completely understand what you're saying because I travel also

As interesting as this video was, i was happy to witness what they think of the u.s. and tiktok.

Being on tiktok, it’s not just gen z and kids? There are a lot of adults and millennials and gen X on it too. Variety of content from them: from silly to educational.

this si already hand pick clips, as a chinese I can say 80% of us are like the guy at 16:38 toward western country.My mom's generation is already like Chinese alex jones.

It's really not restrictive ☠️ i asked a policeman for help in shanghai and He literally was using a vpn and American apps.... I think nobody can talk about china unless they visit the country and talk to the locals.

居然给看破防了，笑死我😂

Its not about TIK TOK , its about people in it . TIK TOK itself is an intertaining platform , the bad thing abot it , that u spend a lot of time watching content .

Maybe come into the video being more open minded...

Your understanding of TikTok and Douyin is very poorly informed. The restrictions such as the time allowed on the platform, any type of content moderation etc. are government policies. You don't have to ban it. This ignores the obvious reason why the U.S government wants TikTok banned. (AIPAC, Gaza genocide)

29:20 does tiktok has child setting?? YES It calls Restricted Mode - parental control you can turn Restricted Mode on for your teen's account through Family Pairing.

To ask a question if one is free, is like asking a question if two blind people can see. There is no such thing as true freedom even in democracy.

China is basically not hostile to the US. The mainstream idea is to learn from the US. The two countries will develop together, and mankind will coexist. Both countries will get better and better! But the dominant thinking of the US is hostile. It hopes that China will kneel down to the US and find various excuses to block China's development. This kind of American thinking is not what humans should think! This is the current reality, and it is difficult to integrate and communicate. If the US does not change, the future is not optimistic

The Lincoln Z is manufactured in China. Ford made a deal with a Chinese manufacturer Changan to sell cars in China. They make them there to be sold in the US & China. The part about Hollywood movies & China's. I remember years ago when they didn't allow films about ghosts into China. I believe they did allow the last two Ghostbusters films though. Although maybe it was because it was more general audience friendly than most films about ghosts are.

So you defended diversity when it comes to race, but diminishes and makes fun of it when it comes to LGBT diversity? It seems that people can't empathize beyond their current situation.

Bro, you should open the Subs, and it will be easier to follow.

The trade wars is mainly targeting microchips. China's chip tech is about a decade behind the the best makers like Taiwan, S Korea and the US.

"It's funny cause it's true"...is it?

Bro definitely have never seen chinese TikTok 💀 If youve seen douyin videos, I could guarantee you would change your mind. Theyre way more brainrotting than american tiktoks, which is why I find them funny ngl

Mr Boyd here seems to have a very good re-education. He wants to criticize the u.s. for obesity and heart disease while looking like a pretty good candidate for both. Alright?

中国的抖音 有专门设置青少年模式，专门防止不让小孩看到不该看的，美国的tiktok好像没有这种限制吧，所以才会出小孩能看到不该看的东西。

Its interesting seeing the misconception americanos have about china Hilarious Tiktok here is just the same, I don't know what this opinion that things are censored came from

This is how Shanghainese see the US.

The content on douyin and tik tok is the similar mindless stuff

You should see douyin instead of blaming them not seeing tiktok. Since you are the one making the comparison and conclusion. The interviewee were just saying what they observe, possibility only on douyin.

In brazil happened too 😅

Also #1 in number of imprisoned citizens.

Is that the muppet master in the background, 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The Chinese are smart. They spend fine words for the United States and then smile. In the smile lies their true opinion.

Btw, US say TikTok is going to be banned. It is banned yet?

Did the glasses guy scoff at the idea of a black queen?

感覺上這個訪問是問了很多人之後特別剪出來給美國人看

这哥们跟抖音有仇

What are you talking about withholding your comments in Malaysia? We are all perfectly fine down here, It's all good..... really.... I haven't been detained in years....

That and I don't want cheap Chinese products in general. I am a musician, and Peavy (amp company) used to make their amps in USA - early 90s. They are some of the best Peavy's you can buy today. They started making them over in China and they are absolute trash, no serviceable parts, low quality parts, and the consistency from amp to amp is vast. Don't get me wrong, there are some amazing Chinese made instruments Harley Benton, Epiphone, Ibanez, and Yamaha come to mind. For the price, they blow USA, Japan, made instruments out of the water. The reason is the labor is so cheap, you can employ literal children to make parts. Thats a while different convo ---

algorithm does not work like what 😂 it shows “gen z” preference，if feel like the contents there are “trash”，that‘s because “gen z” like “trash”，it’s not due to the tiktok😂 but banning tictok is a good propaganda story than the TRUE problem.

You asked who is to say which is better. Well I have the balls to say that individualism and Liberty are way better than Communist totalitarianism.

Did they barely get the 80s Vibes.... They looking like THEY LOSING THIER CULTURE

It’s funny the Chinese are criticizing the freedom in America. It’s also funny so many people can’t comprehend what it means to be “free in America” Did you think the country was going to be free 100%? That’s impossible for any nation on earth. What it does mean, is the ability to hold certain things and criticize without consequences from above. Can you do that in China? No. In fact, there’s a great majority of nations that won’t allow you to. As for tax? You’re not going to not be taxed. That’s life. You pick it up now but said nothing about taxes years ago. Maybe people should understand that the country of America is actually one of the better places to be than the other bad ones who provide you with little to nothing to live.

exactly, don't give a shit to what ppl from other countries think about US. US is on a prefect path and will always be! US is doing an amazing job, keep it going!

I dont want made in china anything😊

I understand the messaging is compelling, but please understand that Asian boss is propaganda. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to operate in China and post on RU-vid, which is inaccessible without a VPN.

How can China or anyother , Asian countries, would tell a WESTERN CIVILIZATIONS WAY OF LIFE how to live it is F'n FUNNY 😂😂😂😂

Well the end of this video made me realized that American know they are villains and don't care. So don't blame the other people of the planet for resisting and fighting back.
