I want to watch a YT channel on China that is good. I feel like there are many channels completely demonizing China and other praising it without any nuance. It is a fact that China got so many of their own people out of poverty and it is surpassing the US technologically. These aspects are often downplayed or shoved away because China is becoming a surveillance state, which it undeniable is becoming, but the US also is. Are there any good YT channels that aren't a simple propaganda piece of the CCP but don't demonize it and deny its undeniably great accomplishments?

    You want nuance? Absolutely not! No, you get mindless praise and apologia or rabid reactionary demonisation no in between.

      Why is it so hard. It is like trying to read Balkan history written by contemporary academics from that area.
