China’s programs (Confucius Institutes\/yellow) in the United States compared to American Community Centers (green) in China. (Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It’s no secret, on TAH, that the predominant philosophy among many of our universities is to the left of the political spectrum. Far left. There has been numerous mentions of moves, by the University, University staff, or students, to stifle or hamper conservative thought. Based on the arguments of one of our posters from the West Coast, many here suspect that the trending belief, among professors and students, is on the socialist\/communist end of the political spectrum.<\/p>\n

This hostility towards conservative groups and speech doesn’t appear to be applied against a foreign power’s attempt to influence thought and learning with regards to our university level learning. There is a report, from the Senate, focusing on China’s influence on our universities.<\/p>\n

From The Daily Caller:<\/span><\/p>\n

“We should actively carry out international propaganda battles,” China’s former Minister of Propaganda Liu Yunshan said in a Chinese newspaper in 2010. “Our strategy is to proactively take our culture abroad … We should do well in establishing and operating overseas cultural centers and Confucius Institutes.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Allowing another country to create centers here, with the United States setting up equivalent centers overseas, may seem simple. Through these centers, both sides could increase understanding and cooperation. However, this doesn’t appear to be the case. The Chinese appear to be leveraging these centers to exert their influence on our university systems.<\/p>\n

Their treatment of American Cultural Centers in China speaks volumes about China’s real intent. More from The Daily Coller:<\/span><\/p>\n

The U.S. attempted to establish parity by creating “American Cultural Centers” (ACC) in which U.S. universities would partner with Chinese ones to set up programs abroad. But the program was ended in 2017 after the Chinese government allegedly repeatedly obstructed programs and denied them academic freedom.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As seen from the graphic above, Chinese centers in the United States outnumber American centers in China. Chinese outposts, in the United States, appear to be receiving tailwinds from American universities. However, our equivalent centers in China met vicious headwinds from the Chinese government. It doesn’t stop there. China is planning on expanding this program into America’s grade schools.<\/p>\n
