Omg Ryan, thanks for posting this! I had been up over 24 hours when I caught this commercial. I missed the beginning but even so I thought I was hallucination. Wtf is going on? I'm so fucking sick of China.
I mean I sat there hitting the back button on the DVR over and over trying to figure out that commercial. I had just flipped from Fox so like I said I missed the very beginning. I found it extremely troubling to say the least.
The whole thing is snowballing now. Everyday I wake up it gets a little worse. I feel like we are living in the last days of an empire.
Could somebody smarter than me please explain. I just don't get this commercial. Why, what is the point?
I took it as very subtle propaganda about China being on the rise and gaining power. Note the PLA troop and the Chinese astronauts.
On its face though, it doesn't seem to convey any real message such as encouraging tourism or business investment.
