ev0| Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Respect the country and how they run it. Can't have any respect for a society that is not free. I hope they overthrow their government at some point, and maybe then China can live up to the greatness they so desperately want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnesia Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 well i like communism. (the true idea behind communism) not the misunderstood communism that has spread to different countries. At the end of the day, if communism is the way China went with, it's their country and their people will do something about it. I have alot of Chinese friends. All of whome say that China is straying from communism at a steady pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjaminzsj Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Premature Communism holds the country back. When those politicians found out it's too late, after all they can't overthrow what they had established so China finds another subtle way to learn from western countries while at the time keep all of the things under control.

Communism will ensure cooperation. And the fact is that democracy doesn't really work with all countries. China and the chinese people have very different history and cultural background compared to a lot of democratic countries, and considering its size, the language and cultural diversity within the country itself, democracy just won't work.

autodefe Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 The actual idea of communism has nothing to do with censorship. 586712274[/snapback] Exactly. People need to research before opening their mouths (or typing, whatever). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotRoot Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 I dunno about you guys, but maybe if you lived in China and actually experienced this, your opinions might be worth listening to. As of yet, you guys are once again proving your ignorance, simply because you live in a well-off society and think that such policies are 'bad'. I'm not disposed to praise China much (I'm born in Hong Kong, there's like this enmity of sorts - a bit like Aussies and Poms or Kiwis), but until you're a Chinese citizen, have lived in China and know how their society works, I suggest you don't make blatant comments that reflect your so called 'knowledge' simply because you're so used to uncensored material and free speech and have been 'educated'. Respect the country and how they run it. In time, China will change, but it might not be ready for it yet. 586712385[/snapback] You obviously haven't spent much time in China as an adult at least. And Hong Kong isn't even part of mainland China. They are capatalist for crying outloud. Hong Kong != mainland China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitchenutensils Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 we have a chinese student here from hong kong, and she doesnt know what a democracy, capitalist nation or communist nation is so i see they do have something in hong kong, well to be honest that doenst surprise me because there is alot of objectional content on wikipedia - it does have the full public opinion.

The_Mask Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Exactly. People need to research before opening their mouths (or typing, whatever). 586714406[/snapback] was that for me too? once again, correct me if im rong, but it realy doesnt matter for me if the ideal of communist is a country with people hugging and kissing each other. i just look at communist countries, and see peoplo not having freedom of speech. like the way the topic started! and from where i come from, that is called censoring. that is how i see communist countries work, so that's how i see comunists. if that wasnt suposed to work like that, i just guess someone in the past did a really mess with the name.

I'm not saying communists should die, but communism should if it promotes censorship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
