Comment A new cultural revolution (Score -1) 70
an unthinkable outcome during the Cultural Revolution when it was banned as a game of the decadent West.
While China has learned from the mistakes of Cultural Revolution and have liberalized its people from most aspects of life (*),
Russia's Sergey Karjakin, whom the international chess federation banned for his vocal support of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
the West is decaying in path of its own version of Cultural Revolution (**).
(*) of course, most media in the West would insist that China has absolutely no freedom and people believe so because they don't actually read real Chinese (social or traditional) media like this comment did; the reality is more like China has no absolute freedom -- indeed you would get less much trouble criticizing Xi Jinping than, for example, publicly voicing support for N-a-z-i in Europe or making racial slurs in the U.S.
(**) and especially in the light of the hypocrisy considering the West (NATO + USA) have launched the most wars and invaded numerous countries including Yugoslavia and Iraq since the end of WW2 and Cold War.
