In almost every country where the Olympic torch went there were massive protests against China, it’s repressive policies against Tibetans. Most protestors think China as an Uncivilised Nation, Cruel, authoritarian.
Why do so many people hate China? or is US involved in creating this image?
They do it perfectly themselves without aid of USA.
One reason i abhorr the way things are done in China is their appalling and unforgiveable treatment of animals. Simply vicious , inhumane and horrific.
second reason; And their appalling treatment of Aids sufferers.
third reason: censorship , censorship and more censorship
Fourth: the appalling treatment of women, women and child trafficking.
The one thing i think is great about China is the one child only policy. Now if only India , Bangladesh and other overcrowding birthrate countries would follow same.
World hates China? yeah I don’t see Chinese products anywhere in the world, world hates China indeed. Its propagandists and opportunists taking their positions. Of course every country has something to hide, but to say “world hates China” is just ridiculous.
And chinese manufactures of ill repute have a horrible way of making counterfeit products and movies.
The world loves chinese food, the great wall , and its philosophers like lao tzu, Logician, Zhaozhu a Zen buddist master, and the dear Confucian. There are many more but these are the ones I am familiar with.
But overall human rights like in many countries are practicall non existent. women's right and child rights are sorely in disrepute just like in many south east and other asian countries. Even brazil has an attrocious , corrupt and evil practice in deaing with their street orphans.

The protests, to my understanding, have been very small...just because America hates China, doesn't mean the "world" hates China...
Just because the rest of the "world" hates America doesnt' mean America hates China. Protests in US were very small compared to those in other countries.
^ same reason the few friends the US has “love” the US. its the emerging global power.
and the world doesnt hate China at all. China isnt topping the global hate surveys and has more people viewing it favourably than unfavorably, infact its pretty close to India and much better than the US.
^ "Emerging" is the key word. Let them be the superpower for a few decades and we'll see how much China is loved. As the poll you quoted indicates, their popularity is falling fast. No one likes a superpower.
Seminole - I would like to expand to what you said - no one likes a superpower, who crushes all opposition to its views.
Tibet, the muslim provencies in China, the Fulon Gong movement, the pro democracy movements (remember Tainamein square massacares), threatening Taiwan etc.
It was the 'commies' who provided free daycare, the west just copied and charged funds for the service.
It was the 'commies' who influenced the west to create medi-care, health insurance.
it was the 'commies' who had absolute equality between men and women in academics, sport, work and cultural pursuits.
it was the 'commies' who influenced the development of social welfare programs.
it was the 'commies' who influenced the west in creating social security, old age security
So many who enjoy the above or have partaken of the above you can count your lucky stars Soviet Union once existed as it encouraged civilized countries in the right direction in aiding it's people. Nazdrovje!!
so before you condemn 'commies' think twice how much better the west is to live in then many countries ruled by corrupt, theocratic and/or socio-retarded despots like Mugabe.
^ it was the commies who killed millions of people in Soviet Union
it was the commies who almost destroyed Chinese culture in the name of cultural revolution
it was the commies who killed millions of Chinese because of their Leap forward policy
Enough?
Just because the rest of the "world" hates America doesnt' mean America hates China.
Okay...let's see if that line sees the light of day through the Ameircan media, and American officials in office...I mean, aside from the folks out to make a buck, of course...
