There is no doubt that Hong Kong belongs to China. Of course, Kamal Taj has never thought of overturning this conclusion. After all, this is the truth. But let them enter the temple to help defend? No way!
Kamal Taj also has her own pride.
Both parties have their own principles that they cannot give up, so they are stuck here. Of course, Kai will never participate in such a discussion. After all, he does not want to be thankless. After all, deep down in his heart, he actually agrees with the Chinese official's entry into the temple...
At his core, he is still the young detective from a prefecture-level city in China, and he strongly agrees with the ideas of Zhang Qiang and others.
But the problem is that now he has a yellow heart and a white skin, and whatever he says will make people feel embarrassed.
So I just sat there and ate.
Both Strange and Zhang Qiang were puzzled.
Of course, in comparison, Strange was even more depressed. He originally thought that Kai would support him... But the problem was that Kai would never say anything about this kind of thing. Zhang Qiang was still worried before, although Kai has great influence abroad.
It’s big, but for the country, it’s just that.
But if Kai really ends up, they will still be a little passive.
As a result, Kai didn't say a word. This made Zhang Qiang sigh in relief, but at the same time, he was beating a drum deep in his heart. This man definitely has a conspiracy!
"Kay! How long are you going to eat? Why can't you talk to me?"
Strange couldn't help it. To be honest, he really couldn't stand these government officials... In fact, there is no rich person in the West who doesn't resent government interference.
Strange is also a wealthy man...and he also supports small government.
Small government, also known as minimal centralization or minimal government, is a method that advocates that the power of the government should be minimized. In addition to protecting people's freedom and freedom from infringement, the government should be hands-off in other affairs. In short, small government
Governmentalism requires limiting the power of the government and requiring the government to leave all matters in society except the punishment of crimes, defense and diplomacy, etc., in order to achieve the highly liberal society pursued by liberals.
In order to convince the general public of the benefits of small government, the rich have repeatedly clamored that as long as small government is implemented, officials will lose the opportunity for corruption because their power is deprived. Society can organize groups to manage instead of the government, and can even do
Better. These are the theories of the rich.
The so-called experts and scholars who have received money also strongly advocate this theory.
Experts also cite situations in other countries as examples. For example, they often point to the United States, saying that the United States is a federal country. The state governments of each state are in charge of their own affairs, and the federal government has no right to intervene. Therefore, the American people have a huge problem.
Only with the degree of freedom and various social groups functioning well can the United States be so strong.
They brought up Japan as an example. They first boasted about Japan and described Japan as a beautiful society with a peaceful society, high moral quality of the people, and honest government officials. Then they changed the topic and began to promote their point of view: because the Japanese government
Small government is practiced, so the scale of the Japanese government is very small, and many things are done by private groups. This greatly improves the efficiency of social operation and reduces fiscal expenditures.
But is small government really as good as experts say? If it is really good, why are only a handful of countries like the United States and Japan practicing it? Don’t other countries know the benefits of small government?
In fact, the experts once again used their glib skills. They only talked about the theoretical benefits of small government, but never talked about the disadvantages that occurred in actual operation.
For example, this time Hurricane Harvey ravaged Texas, USA, causing floods to flood the entire city in large areas of Texas, causing water and power outages, which seriously affected local residents. Now that "Harvey" has retreated, it is devastated.
Texas is in urgent need of reconstruction. But reconstruction requires money. Where will the money come from? The Texas government estimates that it needs 120 billion to 180 billion U.S. dollars. The state government cannot come up with this money, so it can only turn to the federal government.
The government wants it. But the federal government has its hands spread out and has no money!
The federal government has its own reasons. I have been constrained by small governmentism. Not only has the number of departments been reduced, but the funds and powers required to manage affairs have also been restricted. Over the years, the federal government has closed down many times due to lack of money. In
In this case, it is difficult for the federal government to protect itself, and it has no spare capacity or obligation to support the state government. As a result, because the federal government is unwilling to provide support, Texans are still homeless, because the property damaged by the hurricane is also
Without compensation, life is extremely difficult.
Small government has brought more harm to the United States than just that. In the United States, the scope of the federal government's responsibilities has been greatly reduced. Matters such as managing the economy have been handed over to private departments such as the Federal Reserve, and even city security is managed by the community.
.This is too fatal. Because
In the case of community management, there will be serious inequality between various regions. Because wealthy areas pay more taxes, the management departments of wealthy areas have the money to hire more police to maintain law and order, and infrastructure and public construction are also lower than
Areas where poor people gather are better, and the whole community is full of birds and flowers.
, the environment is very comfortable. On the contrary, poor areas gather a large number of poor people. The poor people do not pay much taxes, so they naturally have no money to increase security forces to maintain public order. There is no money to maintain public transportation and infrastructure. Compared with rich areas, the security of poor areas is poor.
Deteriorated, dirty environment, living in poor areas
The people have no sense of security at all, and naturally they will not be happy. Therefore, not only did Congress refuse to support Texas under the pretext of small government, but even the White House was unwilling to lend a helping hand. The White House only expressed its willingness to borrow money
After raising funds, we will support the Texas government.
However, this method of borrowing will expand power and will only be opposed by supporters of small government. These people are liberals and are most opposed to the expansion of government power. Now that the White House wants to borrow money, these people will definitely oppose it vigorously.
, preventing the White House from expanding its scope of power.
Then the power of the federal government will be compressed and streamlined, and the power will be delegated to civil organizations and non-profit institutions, and it will only need to do basic public affairs and emergency crisis management. It will not assume unlimited responsibilities, nor will it take care of everything.
Everything. Citizens can scold the president and staff at will, protect their personal and residential safety with guns, and would rather trust individuals.
The people's militia also did not believe in the government and vowed to put government power in a cage. They also said that the U.S. government departments are Qingshui Yamen, which hide wealth from the people and have no power to control wealth. All expenditure budgets must first be reviewed by the Congress, which is not allowed.
It is spent randomly, so every budget is transparent and clean, can withstand the review of a third-party independent agency, and no bribery or corruption will occur.
Why do the rich support small government? Because then the government's restrictions on them will be minimal and they can expand infinitely!
The expansion of capital is disordered, and they will devour everything they see based on instinct. Finally... with a crash, everything will collapse!
Of course, this is a small problem for capital, but China will never run such a thing.
Of course, this is far from the truth, after all, they can't pee in the same pot.
But this has something to do with Kai.
He didn't bother to participate.
"Don't look at me, it's none of my business! No matter what happens to this matter, I don't care."
Kai shrugged.
"I'm not from Kamal Taj."
Strange was speechless.
But Kai didn't really say nothing. He looked at Zhang Qiang and said, "By the way, why are you competing with a little Karami like him? He can't make the decision?"
In fact, what the truth means is that he is just an innocent passerby, and he also has no way to make the decision.
Zhang Qiang obviously understood.
But obviously, Zhang Qiang didn't believe it.
"But you're here! Kama Taj allows you to enter their temple. This shows that their rules are not so strict, right? Since they allow you to enter, why should they stop us!"
Zhang Qiang's logic is very simple. Kai can advance, why can't they enter the Divine Spear Game?
Are you playing double standard with me?
There's no way, Westerners just like this. It's an old tradition.
If you want to ask why Western countries always use this "double standard" attitude towards non-Western countries, we have to start with the more famous "Western-centrism". The so-called "Western-centrism"
", in the final analysis, is a value concept and ideology based on Western racial superiority. With the birth and development of the Industrial Revolution, after the Western world gained technological and organizational advantages, this
This kind of "Western-centrism" was developed in a special form by imperialism, that is, Western values and social systems are regarded as the only standard for measuring human civilization. According to this theory, Western imperialism has naturally become
There is a "God" who can rule everything, while other countries can be shaped into any shape they want according to their own preferences. This is the ideological root of all "double standards" in Western hegemonic countries.
Under the guidance of this kind of thinking, hegemonic countries can assess the standards of good and evil at will. As long as it is something set by them, other countries must unconditionally comply without any resistance. With powerful force, Western imperialism and
In the centuries when hegemony has been rampant, this approach has indeed affected the development of the entire human society, and it continues to affect the current world. And in this world's largest
As one of the non-Western countries, China has chosen a development path that is completely different from that of the West. Naturally, it has become a "thorn in the side" and "thorn in the flesh" of some Western hegemonic countries. In order to completely force China to succumb to the power of Western hegemonic countries, they
They have used all kinds of methods to attack, contain, and smear China, and the "double standards" method to deal with China is one of the most eye-catching methods they use.
A well-known German media published an article saying that "controlling air pollution may actually lead to accelerated climate warming." Three years ago, the same media published an article blaming China, claiming that China's use of coal for power generation caused environmental pollution. Just over three years later,
At that time, two articles with completely opposite trends came from the same German media. There is no other reason - if the Germans do not
If you want to survive the cold, you can only burn firewood if you don't have to burn more coal. For the Chinese, this phenomenon of "double standards" immediately starting when encountering China is not the first time we have seen it. For a long time, fighting
Under the high-sounding banners of "environmental protection," "human rights," and "security," various "double standards" accusations against China have long become a common practice of some countries and organizations.
There are many things more extreme than this!
On the topic of environmental protection, Western hegemonic countries can be said to have fully embodied the "double standards" approach. In December 2020, U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Krach declared in public that China was "the best" in the bad results caused by China's destruction of the environment.
He also called on "all countries around the world to work together to stop China's destructive behavior." This "unreasonable" statement
The statement that confused right and wrong aroused the anger of China. As we all know, since 2000, China’s new green area has accounted for one-quarter of the world’s total new green area. In the past ten years, China has completed desertification control
The desertification tasks amount to 282 million acres, and 26.58 million acres of desertified land are closed and protected. More than half of the controllable desertified land has been controlled. In addition,
In addition, the proportion of non-fossil energy in China's total energy consumption has risen to 15.3%, and the installed capacity of renewable energy has accounted for 30% of the world's total, accounting for 44% of the global increase. China has also formulated a carbon dioxide emission policy to strive to reduce emissions by 2060.
The long-term goal of achieving carbon neutrality in 2018. In contrast, the United States neither recognized the Kyoto Protocol nor withdrew from the Paris Agreement.
It refuses to assume its emission reduction obligations as a major country. Moreover, the United States is still the world's largest consumer of plastics, but it refuses to ratify the Basel Convention and transports large amounts of plastic waste to other countries. It is even more ridiculous.
However, just when China was actively greening its land and turning a large number of deserts into green fields, the American "Washington Post" got excited...
They published an "aggressive article" titled "China Forces Planting Hundreds of Millions of New Trees Every Year", criticizing China's greening work. This outrageous idea can be called a "spectacle" in the public opinion field. But in 2013
In 2006, they reported on China’s
The title is still "China's addiction to disposable chopsticks is destroying forests". Co-authored by China, whether they plant trees or cut them down, it is wrong in their eyes. In addition to the "double standards" in environmental protection, in "eating"
On the issue of
They have a similar attitude. They have never stopped attacking China whenever the topic of "eating" is mentioned. The Economist believes that it is the Chinese who eat pork that causes global warming;
The New York Times believes that Chinese people's consumption of pork has intensified environmental damage and led to the destruction of the Amazon rainforest; Time Magazine believes that China can change the world by removing meat from the menu... Anyway, in the final analysis
, just don’t want Chinese people to eat meat.
However, according to statistics in 2020, the per capita meat intake in the United States reached 101 kilograms, while the per capita meat intake in China was 44 kilograms. If other meat-containing snacks are also included, the per capita meat consumption in the United States will be even higher. This picture
The style clearly reflects the "double standards" of the West.
It is these Western hegemonic countries that talk so much about "human rights" that when they deal with matters related to "human rights", they don't see any trace of human rights. According to the "2021 Report on Human Rights Violations in the United States" published by the Information Office of the State Council of China
》Statistics show that the so-called "anti-terrorism" war launched by the United States in the past 20 years has claimed more than 929,000 lives. The 20-year military operation of the United States in Afghanistan has caused a cumulative loss of more than 30,000 lives, including
174,000 people, including civilians, were killed and more than 60,000 were injured. The United States' "double standards" behavior in the field of human rights is world-famous. On the one hand, the United States often fabricates baseless lies about so-called "forced labor" in China.
On the other hand, the United States never mentions the real and commonplace torture and abuse in its own prisons, and the issue of "modern slavery." The United States' "black prisons" around the world, including Guantanamo Bay, detain people without trial.
Arbitrary detention and torture have become symbols of the United States' trampling on the rule of law and human rights violations. What is unimaginable to the Chinese is that a large number of child labor still exists in the United States. The United States is also the only country in the world that has not ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
countries. A report in the Washington Post pointed out that between 2003 and 2016 alone, 452 children died on the job in the United States, of which 237 died in agricultural production.
Industrial accidents account for more than half. In addition, tobacco farms in many states in the United States employ a large number of children to harvest and dry tobacco leaves. Many children suffer from nicotine poisoning and are even found to have lung infections, causing great harm to their physical and mental health.
Such bad records have not changed the "double standards" behavior of the United States at all. They still don't care about their own domestic human rights issues and wantonly wield the "human rights" stick to attack other countries internationally.
This thing used to make people really sick.
Now this trick is happening again, which makes Zhang Qiang sick!
Kai, a foreign superhero, can enter, but our reasonable and legal law enforcement officers cannot... What do you mean? What the hell are you talking about double standards?
