It's not a simple thing (liking the CHinese way) but essentially if you play by the rules you'll be ok, whereas in the west we have been since WW2 more used to being free to say you don't like something or someone without being arrested in the middle of the night and never heard from again.
We do not run over thousands of students in tanks last time I looked.
Saying I like China as a final coda to everything we've talked about is like saying, I don't normally eat catfood. No, I don't either, but what is your point? We're talking global, you're now talking about what shade of beige you like.
War, slavery, catastophy, politics, famine, suicides (farmer yesterday) poverty, impoverishment, dictatoships, suppresion, terror, violence, murder and death, hidden adgendas, control, various isms ... but sure, you don't eat catfood.
