Key Notes
Jiang says he avoids making predictions about China because those predictions would be politically sensitive while he is living in China with a family, even though he has already angered Western audiences and governments.
The host argues that one of the West's former strengths was openness to airing and correcting mistakes, but that propaganda and fear now make people self-censor around immigration, gender, and foreign policy instead of renewing the civilization through honest criticism.
Greg asks whether Jiang has additional predictions too extreme to publish publicly even after Jiang's recent viral success.
