Not so sure communism would be good for India. People that grew up in or whose parents come from former commie nations tend to be bitter and lacking in morals and values. ie) Albanians and Romanians.
I feel this describes current population of India.
Mainland Chinese are quite different from ethnic Chinese from Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, etc.
Yes, but also no. Depends on the location tbh. A lot of chinese fled from japs and the civil war to hong kong and Taiwan.
Taiwan and Mainlanders like to think they are more different than they really are. Same goes for hong kong and mainlanders, except people from hong kong are kinda uppity cunts.
Truth is the biggest cultural difference between mainlanders and others Chinese is, the government is most likely to cheat the people and and the people are more likely to cheat the government, and business owners are usually caught between both sides cheating both.
I would argue this is how their society is structure, while the fact that indians cheat everyone is a reflection of the moral of them as a people.
Sure china sucks, but chinese people show signs to me that they don't like how things are. Chinese gutter oil is disgusting, but...universally Chinese people hate it, and want it to stop. While the food clips posted here seem to be beloved as an example of great cuisine. Since pets became more popular in China, younger Chinese show more hate towards animal torture. Chinese people don't like the government, most hong kongers and Taiwanese also don't like or trust mainland government. Mainlanders don't either, I know an acquittance that gunned it through a military check point during covid, was pretty easy, they don't have guns.
I think the differences between Chinese diaspora is shrinking. I think people like to think they are more different than they really are, but the more civilized ideas they get the more the perceived differences shrink and the less amoral they get. They all seem to agree, chinese government sucks. Most immigrants I know in america sees the chinese government is like the Mafia.
While india, well, still india.
