Chinese know the "criticize the old world" technique well. They've been doing it over 60 years.

Marxism is built around critical theories, which means to criticize. Critical theories do NOT mean one uses critical thinking.

The cultural Marxist takeover of China was accomplished by "Unity, Criticize, Unity"

They brought everyone together in unity, and then criticized the old system, and then came to a new "unity" based on whatever whims the Marxist leaders decided people were to unite under.

The Chinese called it "speaking bitterness". Speaking bitterness about the Chinese "four olds", which were old ideas, old customs, old habits, and old culture.

This is what DEI in America is designed to do... cultural Marxism tweaked for American culture. DEI, SEL, Emotional Resilience, etc...
