China Dictatorship (中国独裁统治)

14.1.4.6. Chinese dream (中国梦, 4000 BC -)

Chinese version of the American dream (美国梦), which Xi Jinping (习近平, 2012-∞, Heil卐!) insists is completely different and superior to the American dream (美国梦).

The names suggest, they are not real, but just dreams.

Transcript for Little pink explains the difference between the American dream and the Chinese dream:

美国梦是个人发财的梦
讲究冒险
通过个人奋斗达到所谓的成功
成为有产者
然后去剥削别人

中国梦是共同富裕
追求的是人民幸福

换句话说
美国梦是个人梦
是为美元的梦

中国梦是人民梦
是为人民服务的梦
这就是二者的本质区别

以后不要在我面前提起美国梦
俗气！

The American dream is a dream of personal wealth
it focuses on risk taking
to achieve so-called success through personal struggle
and become a property owner
and then exploit others

The Chinese dream is common prosperity
to pursue the happiness of the people

In other words
the American dream is an individualistic dream
it is a dream of the Dollar

The Chinese dream is the people’s dream
Is a dream of serving the people
This is the essential difference between the two

Don’t bring up the American dream in front of me in the future
Cheesy!
