Aron. You might as well go ahead and change your moniker to “Trouble”.
In the current context, carried to its ultimate conclusion, it appears that we of the American mindset, LC or not, are just a bunch of rubes. The “American mindset” for me is dominated by the gospel of Jesus Christ, first and foremost.
Would you say that, I’ll call it “Chinese Socialism”, as you and Curious have described, is dominant in the Chinese culture, or IS the Chinese culture, and takes precedence over every other “mindset” including the gospel of Jesus Christ?
This is still rattling around, but you and Curious have explained what’s going on in a way that makes sense. It seems that we may have been fighting the wrong battle.
