    Berletic: China's "Century of Humiliation" & US-Chinese Tensions Today w/Carl Zha Archived Message

    Posted by sashimi on December 7, 2022, 9:19 am

    This is a long, but extremely informative explanation of China's "Century of
    Humiliation" and will leave no doubt in your mind as to why China wants a
    unified society and a powerful military.

    Historian Carl Zha of the Silk & Steel podcast joins me to talk about China's
    "Century of Humiliation" at the hands of Western powers and how it connects
    directly to US-Chinese tensions today.

    * How the US has repeatedly made treaties and agreements with China only to
    betray them when US interests demand;

    * The West's historical use of Hong Kong and Taiwan as hubs to destabilize and
    dominate over the rest of China;

    * The historical use by the West of China for cheap labor and for markets to
    exploit;

    * The threat China faced for lacking a strong military and a unified population;

    * The clear motivations China has for a military and political system used to
    protect itself from further interference and exploitation;
