I appreciate an alternative viewpoint as much as the next guy, but China being the primary locus of engineering and technological innovation for 5000 years is absurd. What of the antikythera mechanism? The Parthenon? Euclidean geometry? The discovery of musical scales? Roman Roads? Roman concrete? The Coliseum? Flying buttresses? Bifocal lenses? Modern musical notation? The Gutenberg printing press? The scientific method? JS Bach? The sextant? Electricity? Telegraphs? Refrigeration? Plumbing? Internal combustion engines Powered flight? Rocketry? Microchips? Antibiotics? The list goes on and on. The mind boggles. There is no Chinese equivalent.

Hi Oliver,

I appreciate your comments about Chinese science, technology, innovation and invention. From the early 1500s, China was lauded and admired by Europeans at all levels. By the 1680s, the European people were becoming more literate, because of a vast amount of printing on those Gutenberg presses that were actually invented by the Chinese long before. The good Christian masses in Europe were becoming unsettled about the rape, pillage and slavery of colonialism around the world and were starting to ask questions. The monarchies and the elites of Europe decided that this was something that needed to be nipped in the bud.

These 1% decided that in order to focus the people's energies on other things besides the genocide being perpetrated from colonialism across the world, they came up with two enemies, Islam and China. Immediately, everything that was great about China, all of its innovations and inventions disappeared and suddenly they were sui generis, now all created by Europeans. With the Ottoman Empire, the Europeans had a convenient enemy to attack to create Islamophobia.

Since then, the denial of Chinese science, technology, innovation and invention has been full bore. Thus, I can appreciate your lack of knowledge about it. Dr. Joseph Needham, the greatest Sinologist of the 20th century, estimated that 50% to 60% of all the innovation and invention in the West originally came from the Chinese, just like the printing press. His posthumous institute, even 20 years ago, had already collected 22 million words of text about China's science, technology, innovation and invention going back thousands of years.

I strongly suggest checking out the website below that has a lot of useful information. You should print out the PDF table that I created from the book, “The Genius of China: 3000 Years of Science, Discovery and Invention”, written by Robert Temple. It was commissioned by Queen Elizabeth II to honor the return of Hong Kong to the Motherland in 1997. You should check out his book at the library or you can even find it for free now in PDF form. It is concise and entertaining. You will be shocked to find out how much has been invented by the Chinese, long before Westerners.

Happy researching, Jeff J. Brown

Most of your cited inventions came at the very end of that 5000-year period. A more balanced look at the entire 5000 years might yield somewhat different results. I can ask Jeff to cite some sources for his surprising statement.

Ask Jeff...about The spectacular continuing horrific persecution of the Falun gong...the human organs extraction Zi does with Isreal....*** black ..mobile execution vans. No freedoms..the entrapment of vile .*state capitalism without freedoms.....*4 jews on that top ruling ccp ultimate government body.

..and jewrat Eric Schmidt s social credit score...more technofacist horrors perfected by Zi.and the blood dripping ccp......the fact that Christians and Muslims have a plethora of horror stories about the blood dripping ccp scum...Jeff talks as if the Chinese government really is one with the Chinese people but that sounds like utter deception..brainwashing.....Jeff may be correct about some cash banks and asset issues in the mainland but we hear the bank of china is imitating most of the judeao bankster scam protocols...is that true or not?.. but fabulous cat is correct to inquire very ..very..closely.......Most Americans

only see massive amounts of Chinese who would be free.... fleeing emperor zi......we agree with other posted comments below..again..Cat is tremendous in her abject correctness on the super felonious

super banksterism of the zograts.the super predator ziocon cyborgs.... Somehow we intuitively distrust Jeff s rose coloured glasses mindset about over polluted heavy communist atheist and

ham fisted monopolist ccp ...administrators..yeah..we have any number of friends who also went there mostly for business but no one except Jews ,at first,we're so glowing about the massive slave colony still known as red dragon antiChristian Mainland China...*. we don't accept the neocon Jewdevil protocol of ..one china..no freedom no independence for Taiwan..etc..if red dragon China is such an overwhelming miracle success. as Jeff seems to posit..why do millions try to escape?....whats with emperor Zi and fink schwarsmen Schwab ?Red dragon China was pretty tight with Isreal for a very long time..as Zi was with WeF blackrock..we hope that changes...we don't hear that the ultra rich ccp government is one with Chinese people..not at all ..not even a little bit...it's an unhealthy disaster catastrophe in waiting...***. We hear and see Chinese people who don't dissent because they don't want a bullet in the back of the head...jus sayin..**.Kevin and Cat we're fabulous anyway...

The people of China are very different than their gov't. which is 100% on board with the WEF globalist parasite technocratic total slavery agenda and their hideous control is everywhere far worse than anywhere else on earth. Just look at what they did with C-19 hysteria in 2020 and after - UGH! HORRORS!

I actually think Jeff is barking up the right tree about China and COVID. As you probably know, I think COVID was a US-Israeli bio-attack on Chiina and Iran. https://rumble.com/vv49f8-covid-19-bio-attack-smoking-gun.html The crazy militarized reaction to COVID was because ...well, we're in the middle of WW3, and freedom and war aren't compatible. MRNA was a failed military experiment. If it had worked, the US would control antidotes to a wide range of bioweapons and would be free to use them with impunity. Fortunately it didn't work.
