The Chinese government has been minimizing English education in schools for the past few years in a effort to prevent young people from being “brainwashed” by western propaganda. I get it, American government did the same by demonizing their “enemies”. But the downside is it also cripples the ability of Chinese to properly present ourselves and raise our voice in the world. We are regarded either as the victims under a authoritarian government( which is not entirely accurate but not totally off mark), or web3 scams( as you can see in the global channel), or vicious communists depicted by western propaganda, or a bunch of quiet and awkward people( this relates to the language barrier and not being able to properly present ourselves). As I was saying, as the language gap widens, this is only going to get worse.
