> Unless I'm mistaken a majority of Chinese actually support their government and matters such as this are viewed through the prism of nationalism.

How do you know that? Without free elections and trustable surveys, it's hard to know.

Because I, at least, pretty frequently hear from person X about their friend Y in China who supports their government and what's being done.

Yes, it's effectively impossible to actually measure it, but I get that feeling too from my browsing history.

From talking to people born in China that live\study in the U.S. One would predict they wouldn't support the PRC as highly on virtue of having left it and perhaps being better educated. But everyone I've met seems to.
