I've recently been wondering what China is actually up to and it has led to me trying to research more deeply their ideology and game plan. Niall posted a great comment on a SOTT article which talked about Confucianism. I found this video this morning and listened while cleaning up. I think it's a bit long winded and there may be much better stuff that cuts to the heart of the matter, but still I thought there were some very interesting points made. Particularly about the lack of virtue or morality in the west, and the need for a combination of wise leadership, the rule of law, and a virtuous, educated population.
It was also refreshing to hear English-speaking voices talk about how Democracy and One Person-One Vote is actually a silly concept if you want a society to make good decisions. I've always thought along those lines but in the West it is absolutely a sacred cow. All you have to do is read some YouTube comments on pretty much any video to see how deranged a lot of people's views and personalities are when they have anonymity. And they all have a vote!
Anyway I thought it was worth sharing since it has helped me get some clearer idea of the world.
