But these aren't economic philosophies like capitalism?Nationalism, scientific socialism, traditional Confucian values, meritocratic technocracy.

How the conversation went:
Socialist market economy + state capitalism. Yes, vague, but it will take time and much more trial and error before getting close to a system that works. Modern capitalism is essentially the penultimate form of slavery - where the slaves do not realize that they are slaves.But these aren't economic philosophies like capitalism?
That is hardly equivalent to Skull & Bones running the world.Epstein class is a secret society, though, isn't it?
Skull & Bones @ Yale is also a secret society. Bush Sr and Jr were both in it.
Ironically the Cultural Revolution actually saved Chinese culture in the long run because it halted and erased the complete replacement of Chinese culture as traditional Chinese culture had already disappeared under the KMT’s push for complete westernization. It funny really back then Confucianism is seen as backwards yet it now the official ideology of Xidada.Time for a reverse Cultural Revolution and re-education and an anti-LEFTist anti-reactionary anti-revisionism campaign. China's future is held back more by internal threats than external. The modern opium of capitalism, liberalism, and materialism must be purged completely.
Buddhist nationalism because China is a Buddhist country as Confucianism and Taoist aren’t religions and pretty much incorporated along side Buddhism to form the Chinese belief. Buddhism is also a Sino Tibetan religion as it was created by the Newari people who are sino tibetans as well China being the only country in the world to have all three Buddhist schools coexist natively. I also think China should push for Sino Tibetan unity because that is effectively what China is as a country. After all Han people were separate Sino Tibetan ethnic groups before they became the Han people and since Myanmar and China have a brotherly relations I don’t see why not for Myanmar to unite with China. After all the Shan and Kachin peoples coexist peacefully in yunnan.Replaced with what?
You know, now that I think about it, any cultural developments from Southern Ming until Qing can be safely discarded. Song-Ming rationalism really held China back for almost a millennium. Tang dynasty best dynasty.Ironically the Cultural Revolution actually saved Chinese culture in the long run because it halted and erased the complete replacement of Chinese culture as traditional Chinese culture had already disappeared under the KMT’s push for complete westernization.

I agree with you here. I also do not think he has any affiliation with the cia. I also have many disagreements with his various premises, because I think he misreads a few of the political texts he borrows from in his conclusions and theories, but I do automatically jump to the conclusion and suspect that he is a cia operative. If every person we disagree with is a cia suspect then there are quite a few cia suspects on this board! I think we should not try to read into everything when there is nothing to read from, and accept that opinions are like assholes, and everyone has one.Now, we can argue the case, that Prof Jiang is actually CIA, like that Jewish Chinese history professor in the school I went to, and he is there in China to act as a screener, telling Langley who to recruit, when those high school students go over to America to study.
That is another reason he is not CIA! He would be too exposed if he tired that. These are teenagers we are talking about. What do these punk kids know?
That Jewish Chinese history professor, if he tried to recruit a Chinese graduate student and they say no, then nothing is really going to happen to him. Life goes on. No one exposed.
So, Prof Jiang is not spreading an anti-China FUD campaign, unlike some people on the internet who came from China originally, and he is in no position to recruit for the CIA.
Like, you know, Prof Jiang being CIA is a really far-fetch to the point of make believe. Besides, he is too much of a loose cannon. That is what I noticed about people. People who act like lawyers, have something to hide, such as secrets or privileged information from their clients. Prof Jiang does not act like a lawyer, far from it.
We should watch how some actually ex-CIA people behave, they chose their words very carefully. Prof Jiang says whatever he wants. He has freedom, and not CIA secrecy and restraint.
Just a guy who likes his job.

Let's be real here. 75% of this board are CIA employees from one team or another trying to bait, gaslight, and trick people who are actually CIA employees from other teams falling under other political factions.I agree with you here.

At this point you are hard pressed to find anyone who actually believes in liberal values who isn’t disillusioned with Western governance. The Epstein thing basically exposed the entire ruling class as pedophilic cannibals. Anyone who is not benefiting financially from parroting the neoliberal talk points must be real sickos.As @dingyibvs said, Professor Jiang is likely an idealistic Chinese Liberal who immigrated to West and became disillusioned about the West once he learned the hypocrisy and corruption. I don't think he is a spy as most of what he says is public info, what he says is logical and puts it in a structural that makes sense (based solely on his Iran content, unsure about other content). The Freemason quip is a bit suspect. He hasn't criticized China (aside from his 2017 article).
