The tired tropes of the liberal objection to this are not worth commenting on, but I find it genuinely surprising that the Chinese leadership think the best way to strengthen the masculinity of their youth is sportsball, lol.

Why? If I were dictator sports would be mandatory as well as regular fitness and the promotion of the athletic ideal. Nothing better for young men than to play especially team sports. It's pro-social and probably one of the most beneficial things a boy can learn.

Of course I don't want them sitting drinking beers on a Sunday in their man-cave hoping their harridan of a wife doesn't get mad if they get a little too rowdy when their favourite criminal tackles an opposition recidivist felon but playing sports is a great thing for boys -- and girls too up to a point.

Sports ball is negrolatry and a waste of time. Compulsory military training and service much better

That's a really stupid attitude in my opinion and of course military service and sports are not mutually exclusive. Uncle's regime encouraged athleticism and sports for the population.
