Dr Who - Popular in China!

UK: Far-Right Votes for the Ideal “Dr Who”! (16.6.2024)

I do not particularly like the current incarnation of Dr Who – but this is because of the style of the writing – which seeks to make the non-human Doctor far more “human”. Why? The Doctor is NOT human – he is a Time Lord from the Planet Gallifrey. Theoretically, the Doctor could manifest as any being (I have often thought of a Chinese man or woman surnamed “Hu” [虎] – or “Tiger”) and does not have to appear in a body most humans find comfortable or familiar. Furthermore, some of the episodes have been very good – whilst others have not been so – in my opinion. I think every season of any programme is like this – as not everyone can be pleased all the time. I detest fascism, racism, bigotry, discrimination and prejudice in any form. YouTube, which pumps US anti-intellectualism into the brains of our British children – is a cesspit for fascist reaction – which follows a deliberate policy of punishing any Black or Asian opposition to the “White” dominant (and “straight”) viewpoints the platform encourages and allows (primarily through advertising). People with Disabilities do not stand a chance in such a hellish environment.

Qing Dynasty: When the Last Chinese Imperial Ship Visited the West! (11.3.2024)

Afterwards, the U.S. Navy repeatedly invited the Qing Dynasty Fleet to visit the United States as a show of friendship. Therefore, on April 11th, 1911, Cheng Biguang (程璧光), the Commander of the “Hai Qi Hao” was ordered to weigh anchor in Shanghai on April 21st – and set sail to the United Kingdom, (thousands of miles away), to attend the Coronation of King George V – and then cross the Atlantic to visit New York, USA. The Baiyang Navy – at the end of the Qing Dynasty – was extremely modernized. The uniforms, Ceremonial Guards, and drill methods of the soldiers were all adopted from the West (specifically the UK). The Officers and soldiers of the “Hai Qi Hao” also cut off their Manchu braided poney-tails – officially integrating with the (modern) Western Navy.

Fujian: May 23rd Incident!

Fujian: The May 23rd “Chopping” Incident Explained! (22.8.2023)

I have added a post regarding an extraordinary event that happened recently in China (click on the above link)! This all evolves around ‘Influencers’ and the pettiness of the Internet! Bear in mind that until 1911 – the Chinese people psychologically and physically inhabited a feudal system which maintained a rigid law and order through the management of an often brutal Justice System that seldom forgave and always meted-out the severest of punishments! Chinese culture is deeply rooted in martial practice and self-control – but here we see a complete loss of the latter and inappropriate application of the former!

Three Scientists Win China’s 2022 Future Science Prize! (22.8.2022)

Between 1911-1949 – the corrupt ‘Nationalist’ government (which had experimented with fascism and rapid and sudden ‘Westernisation’ without a popular mandate) not only attacked and destroyed the famous pinnacle of ‘Chinese’ identity’ – the Shaolin Temple in Henan – but failed miserably to relieve poverty and achieve any significant change for the ordinary peasant population! Genuine Socialism (as defined by Marx, Lenin and Mao Zedong) is driven only by scientific progress – because it is only through the rigours of science that ALL problems existing within (material) human society can be a) ‘understood’ and b) ‘solved’ by a science firmly controlled by the working-class and unshackled from the incessant search for profit exhibited by the predatory capitalist system! Surely, Vladimir Mayakovsky and his ‘Communist Futurism’ movement would be proud of Communist China and the new generation of scientists its universal education system has produced!
