Propaganda works.

What's funny is I can't tell if you're talking about younger Americans refusing to hate China or older Americans chanting "China Bad!"

American failures are being used to prop up Chinese successes. This is particularly true in urbanism discussions. China is by no means perfect and thinking that they are is harmful to progress.
