I'm trying to give everyone a relatable example. If you don't know about the cycle of the center exerting control, crushing the provinces until they rebel, and the whole thing starting over again, I can't help you.
If they were allowed to vote on it (Chinese have never been allowed to vote) the country absolutely would break up. The only thing keeping the country together is a steady drumbeat of programming and the People's Armed Police.
You're not aware that Chinese people who live in big cities and speak English are very different from the mass of laobaixing? Especially you, who writes English at a native level. I've known IELTS high-level graduates who still use awkward constructions like "I am a Chinese"" instead of "I am Chinese". One didn't know who Santa Claus was.
We literally have a long running opinion study from Harvard showing that Chinese people have extremely high satisfaction with the central government, and much lower satisfaction with the local government.
China of 100 years ago isn’t the same as China of today.
Sure it is. China hasn't appreciably changed in thousands of years. You can read accounts from the Tang dynasty and recognize them in the China of today.
Have you taken the HSK? What level did you pass? The old or the new one?

This is a troll? Absurd.
I live in China and speak Chinese. I've read Xi Jinping in the original. You?
Yes, Nanjing. I am Chinese. What you are describing is absurd and a waste of time.
You should know, Chinese people taught me these things. Of course, they didn't speak English, so that very likely biases you.

I just work in tech. Are you saying you are better?
The cities are very different from the countryside but this is not separatist. My family is from Gansu province.

I've made quite a study of Chinese history, in fact.
The chuds are openly talking about civil war and itching to open fire on anyone they don't like. You haven't noticed this?

Okay Kissinger reader
What a cheap shot.
