Parent is wrong though, the CCP most definitely cares about the environment; it has gotten so bad that they are in crisis mode right now. Xi just made a speech about it this weekend, the gov is taking it very seriously and people do care, especially here in Beijing.
Corruption, economy, and pollution (include food safety) are the biggest threats to the CCP's grip on power.
Are you saying that isn't racial prejudice?
I understand you may have a grudge, but how would you describe that?
And stop with the "racist" crap, in light of news of widespread NSA surveilance and changes over last year the USA ain that far behind.
It didnt take long for members of the Ministry of Truth to popup and try to "reeducate" readers regarding my earlier comments.
Oh I see, so we can just generalise about any country because the US is doing horrible things.

More wumao bullshit. Just because someone doesn't buy into the US constructed narrative of "US is good, cares about it's people and the environment, China is evil and just wants to control the world" they have to be Chinese shills...
How about showing me some data that proves I'm wrong?
EDIT: Here is some that shows I'm right:

The "Party" (calling them Communist is a bit of a joke by now) only cares about its own survival and continuing grip on power and control of 1/6th of the worlds population.
It's not a strawman it's very pertinent.
I think you need to read Capital (Marx), before judging whether they are communist/socialist, either way they call themselves that.
Saying "the Chinese think blah" is the same as saying "the Americans think blah". So stop with the racist crap.
If he said "the Han do no care about pollution or the environment" then fine, you'd have a great point.
