China has a soft power deficiency

Korea has Kpop, Japan has anime, but what does China have? Why is it hard for us to think of anything 'cool' about China, and why is that the case? Timestamp...

Bear with me, on this boba liberal’s video.

She talks a bit about restriction, censorship, and standardization of exported media by the ebil CCP /s, but rather focuses it on its consequent dullness, on-the-nose approach and cheapening of its media products…

How would you respond to this, point by point? (Sorry if I may sound like I argue in bad-faith)

Additional thanks if you don’t rely too much on whataboutism (yes, we can apply the artificial-politics-imposed media label, associated with CPC, on U.S media, like G.I Joe and Rambo, some of them even funded by the Department of Defense)

    Thanks! I’ll check those out. Not normally a big fan of pop stuff, but it’s usually still nice to listen to. (there’s a reason it is popular after all.)
