Chinese glorification in CN novels

Authors themselves would do it for the moniez but also so that they can keep writing and not disappear into whatever deep holes critics are thrown into. I dont doubt that a probably sizeable part of the chinese population actually thinks like that quote above, especially the rural backwoods folk who probably only know their area.

Intransitive verb: to exhibit in abundance. Back to the slave pits with you, how dare you attempt to defile the majesty of China's Glory!

My personal belief is that it's due to the heavy censoring in China. If the author throws in some nationalistic circlejerk, sprinkled with a bit of patriotism, hate against Japan, and superiority over South Korea, then the author would have a little more freedom to write about some juicy boobs, and whatnot.

Well government brain washing project... all people in the world like that... DPRK said the same while the westerner brainwashed everyone else saying Democrate and Capitalist is the best way... someplace said absolute monarch is the way

Well at the very least credit the creator of this great review, @UsernameJ

It's a mastapiece, 5/5
The world may remove and censor his glorious review,
but its greatness shall never be forgotten.

From what I heard about chinese public toilets, stools and urine is in fact the glory of China.

On topic - the difference between the blatant nationalism/patriotism in CN novels along with a great deal of the amateur JP novels and western writing is how blatant and in-your-face the former are. For example, John Ringo has a massive nationalism-on for Murica and, for the most part, contempt for Europe, but he usually at least covers it all up in a (rather thin) layer of gore and dakka (there is usually more gore and dakka around and beneath and nationalism). And he is one of the most egregious nationalists I read among American writers. And even he has the deeper message of "politicians bad", where Europeans are just more susceptible to bad politicians than Americans for whatever reason.

This is the first time I hear authors who wrote patriotistic materials automatically make them idiots.
