Alice Against Leashes

This past Fall, Alice’s best friend and inventor has been studying China. Alice has been pondering the leashing of thoughts. Since Alice believes in allrights! this passage stuck:


“Since 2013, the CCP has officially banned media and classroom discussion of seven topics associated with Western values that are considered subversive: universalism, press freedom, judicial independence, civil society, citizens rights, the historical mistakes of the Party, and cronyism in financial and political circles. University professors who are Party members must defend the CCP in class if anyone criticizes it. Western textbooks are banned and being replaced with new indigenous versions that emphasize Marxism.”  Susan L Shirk, 2018
