but imo diff is we are operating outside the frame (white or western as taste suits), arguing over merit of the frame itself

whereas their frame is implicitly accepted as part of their consensus reality and arguments are about how best to fullfil it
-
compare furor over like, confederate monuments (soon founding fathers) college building names whatever to cultural revolution
-
their destruction of artifacts was far more rapid and zealous, govt support meant they could just do it rather than petition
-
but it had nothing to do with like, disavowing china's historical imperialism or minority treatment or any of that
-
that "chineseness" or what have you was in itself good was never in question, it was about what form it ought to take
-
purely a question of whether reverence for historical was holding them back from imposing their will, the project of society
