They are very smart and often brave people. There are many Chinese who live in nations all over the world. They report back what other nations are like. I believe that the desire for liberty is ingrained in the human mind and that controlling thought is difficult. Controlling behavior is somewhat easier in a totalitarian state but we did see the overthrow of the Soviet Union. I think that Chinese, North Korean, Vietnamese, Cuban, and Venezuelan dictatorships can also be overturned We should be looking for every possible way to communicate truth to the people of all the aforementioned countries and around the world. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our hubris holds the foolish belief that we will seed thoughts of freedom, liberty and the free market into these students we keep bringing here by the hundreds of thousands to educate in the hard sciences and everything else and will thus change the Chinese Experience to be more like the American Experience. Hog wash, naivety. The Chinese are a very old, very patient and very calculated people. They will smile and take. As an added bonus, because we are addicted to their money, through so-called Confucius Instututes, they are giving, giving the perception they want Americans to hold of them, a view well outside of reality. But then, what is it they say, perception is reality. Clearly America is taking what their giving. https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/08/chinese_infiltration_in_american_schools.html We must stop funding socialist indoctrination in our schools at all levels. Also, sexual propaganda trying to eliminate the fact that there are only two sexes. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But, you are right, we need to stop them from coming to America. Take action and start a petition to the POTUS.

International students attending American universities is invaluable to all and should be encouraged. American universities need the income from foreign students to pay for the research and development programs and pay the salaries of the best scientists and professors. The policies of the American government have severely negatively impacted the graduating students, the American economy, and society. Liberals encourage uneducated people in poverty to come to America, simultaneously they refuse to allow graduating university students the opportunity to remain and work. Ph.D. and Graduate students that complete amazing educational programs and have completed substantial primary research are forced to return to their home nations, many times against their desires. With them goes the value of all their education, and many times the potential for continued research. So, today America is shut down over a wall to prevent hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of uneducated poor from entering the country. And, there are Ph.D. and graduate students being forced to leave the country. American firms plead with the government to allow them to employ foreign college graduates because there are not enough qualified U.S. citizens. But, NO! The liberal wing wants good paying jobs for their constituents because it satisfies and encourages "gender, race, and other social criteria." They plan to pay for the lunacy by requisitioning a freighter full of cash from the Federal Reserve. In America, they make money the old-fashioned way, they print it!
