Dunno about educated; sceptical, certainly.
And one problem is with bringing China into it, is that China hasn't been communist (if it ever was) for 30-odd years. Now? I suppose state-capitalist might best describe it. One party rule, certainly, and trade unions controlled by that party. Ideal state of affairs (bet there's a lot of Brit and US bosses who envy the Chinese set-up!).
Vietnam? Wobbled politically post Ho, post the anti-Imperialist war, but that poor country was b--gered about with by many Western powers for decades, and it will get better, but be patient.

Oh they are Woke in Seattle, CHAZ Was a summer of love, the peaceful violence only killed a few people and the peaceful protestors only burnt down a few dozen black owned local small businesses. The Mayor was only a minor total failure and the State Governor was only a bit of a useless waste of space. There is no need to worry though, the white folks knoe it’s their fault and they are also going to be apologising for the next 150 years. If only US state law allowed for The POTYS to intervene but it doesn’t , so his hands are tied. If he did intervene the first shout out from the white apologists would be ‘ Abuse of Power’ ‘ Impeach’ so they have to continue to tread on the egg shells they made for themselves.
I take it that the Seattle city burghers are sending employees to the yoga classes given by the wonderfully named Laura Humpf(honest) who started to give them after watching the “racist ways,” in which white people showed up to yoga classes. Haha you know with white faces and stuff.
“Her class tries to neutralize defensiveness, perfectionism and the ‘white savior complex’ as participants try to physically interpret words such as ‘oppression” and “liberation,'”
Sounds like a laugh a minute way to waste your time and money .
Humpf received encouragement in targeting white students for racial instruction by her mentor, the Rev. angel Kyodo williams.
“White-bodied people need to understand that just because you aren’t a former KKK member doesn’t mean you aren’t upholding white supremacy when you aren’t learning to do it,” says williams, a Zen priest and founder of Center for Transformative Change in Berkeley, California.
Another bunch of attention seeking wack jobs coming to a council near you.
Remember......
Political Correctness is just fascism pretending to have manners.

Used to watch George Carlin.
The whole situation on every US College and Uni Campus has led to this end, indoctrinate the kids, take away their religion and their pride in history, destroy their patriotism and the result is a weak minded individual capable to chanting three words mantra behind a Marxist Terrorist with a megaphone and a black face mask and T shirt bought off Amazon with no funds going to any black minority group .

If you have not read the article posted by Fender...do so. Can you imagine the howls if there was a "course" being held by Government or State agencies intended to cure....blackness, or lesbianism, or homosexuality, or muslim tendencies? Glad I haven't got a white car. Would it have to have a respray or a good thrashing in the style of Basil Fawlty?
interesting comments below article, your guilty if your white, what a sweeping statement, totally illogical...sort of hilarious to, who thinks of these things, and what do they hope to achieve, all i see is division.

If True? Haha makes you sound like the little boy who said "say it aint so Joe."
""The city of Seattle held a training session for white employees aimed at teaching them how to “practice self-talk” that “affirms their complicity” in racism and about “undoing” their own whiteness.""

""Better not be an objective, intellectual, comfortable perfectionist or you’re a big-time RACIST.""

""If you enjoy comfort, believe in individualism, or seek objectivity, you’re harboring internalized racial superiority and are complicit in systemic racism.
That’s the message the City of Seattle gave their staff during a 2-1/2 hour training session""

Mind you the heads running Seattle have previous with this sort of so shall indoctrination. A couple of years back they were offering "lectures" on White Fragility.........No not that sort of fragility.....the sort of fragility that manifests itself as "a state in which even a minimum amount of racial stress becomes intolerable, triggering a range of defensive moves."
Racial stress????? Haha. Being stabbed, or exploded for instance.
