Is there any reason to think that their "ideology" is contradictory to scientific findings or is this just the traditional instinct to see all foreigners as mustache-twirling villains?

They have suppressed reporting of the deaths and missing from Kyirong Valley and Gyirong Port landslide. Surviving relatives living outside the area would appreciate information but the Chinese Government would prefer that everyone just move along.

I'd suggest looking into the story of Naomi Wu, who many here would know for her videos on the Chinese maker and electronics scene.

They absolutely enforce ideological positions in opposition to science, and very aggressively so.

There is no waffle room on this.

ok, you got me, if by "science" you mean something completely different than academic research.

I can understand why westerners are uncomfortable with this. I can't find it in myself to care.


She was forced to stop posting her content after a Vice article outed her as bisexual, so the authorities used their blanket decency law to drag her in for an interrogation and guidance session, effectively ending her channel.

The suppression I'm talking about is the CCP rejecting that gay people exist in fact, and censoring anyone that dares to be too visibly gay.


Don’t fuck with the money/power. Always been that way, always will - ideology be damned.
