Is China headed for a clash of cultures as Xi Jinping fuses Confucius and Marx?

[CHN Bamboo]

What he is saying is that protest for small issues like pollution etc. is still tolerated a bit. And just a bit, because recently there was a violent crackdown on the protest in Wuhan.

What violent crackdown? You talk as if other countries did't have.

Parades are obviously very common. In addition to environmental concerns, people also march for education (This is often the case when university admission places in one province are allocated to other provinces), health care and wages.

And now China's high-pollution projects have basically been shut down and moved out to SE Asian countries especially to Vietnam.

There is no tolerance of any kind of questioning on core policies of CCP leadership.

Can you openly criticise Xi Jinping's decision to remove term limits?

Can you openly criticise the cult of personality that is building around Xi?

Question what core policies?

If the policies promulgated by the Government are obviously detrimental to the Chinese people, we will express our opposition.

Just like the Sino-US trade war, the terms put forward by the United States to China, Chinese civilians are very much opposed to it. If the Chinese Government compromises to the United States & betray the interests of the Chinese citizens, it would be better to let the leaders of Chinese Communist Party step down.

Xi Jinping and the Communist Party of China have achieved very good results so far. Why do you want the Chinese to criticize them? Don't talk about craps like people should have the right to criticize leaders.

Perhaps some other countries hope that the Chinese government has no control over domestic public opinions, let them to make a profit by influencing public opinions in China.

Compared with Western countries entering China to support agents, compradors and lower the living standards of the Chinese people, I would rather the Communist Party firmly grasp the public opinions in China. And in fact, the Communist Party cannot influence the minds of the Chinese people on issues related to the livelihood. If CCP dares to cut pensions, health care and other guarantees, opponents will take to the streets directly.

The quote comes from Dong Zhong Shu, the most famous Han dynasty Confucius scholar who was credited for converting the legalist Han to Confucius.
Constraint the power of the ruler? You won't find that in either Legalist or Confucius, maybe Mohist. Legalists argue for law being the tool of the ruler, while Confucius calls for virtue, but neither are to bind the hands of the ruler, but rather to legitimize the rule.
It is direct opposite of Confucius teaching for anyone to challenge the legitimacy of the ruler, as its all about duty and obedience. That's actually what Mao's sharpest criticism on Confucius was. Your understanding or rather misunderstand is actually the opposite what really was. Remember, Mao was the revolutionists while Confucius was the establishment.

Mao hated Confucianism, because whose who follow it don't embrace change. Zhu De who has no intention of being a ruler also hate it.

The Vietnamese are enjoying high pollution nowadays because large number of highly polluting factories have moved out of China to Vietnam(mainly) and other countries, can you drive these factories away? Or just complain about it, there is nothing you can do to stop your gov from introducing highly polluting factories?

Viet workers are working with ultra-low wages, factories are employing local child labor, pollution emissions are resulting in the death of offshore fish, etc., Vietnam's human rights problems are more serious than you think while these rights & interests the Chinese people have fought for and already got improved.

Then stop replying to me, a poor, backward and highly polluting country is not in a position to blame any other.

 

[Ashwasthama]

Both are contradictory ideologies. Any forceful infusion shall result into destabilization in Chinese society and any effort to overcome that by force shall further worsen the situation.

A poor VN place oil rig inside CN U shaped claim, and Xi failed to remove the rig,it means Xi failed to "protect" CN's sovereignty.

Can any Cnese critise Xi for "selling" those sea to VN ?
