People keep making this point, because the west is not perfectly objective. And that's true, but when comparing to the CCP, there is no real contest. And this would be a competition between "western values" and CCP values. Between those 2, I'm going to go out on a limb and say western values are more objective.

After all, the CCP publicly points out it's faking China's published economic data. Presumably to avoid mistakes. Or ecological data. Or population data. Or ... Everything from employment figures to what is happening to groundwater near rare earth mines.

You see, for Chinese values the point of "truth" is NOT explaining reality or reasonable reactions, it's to illustrate that the CCP, and Xi Jinping in particular, is right. About what? Everything.

Apparently Nepal's security services are looking for a serious criminal: someone burned the book of truth at University!
