China Dissident - Who's Afraid of Wei Jingsheng?

[sansebastian1972]

This guy needs to stop comparing people to Nazis, this entire video is unflattering and I do not have a high regard for him and his low brow remarks, and I think it's very telling that the students saw through him and his "organ harvest" remarks..

[yis2]

I been in china for 12 years, a lot what he says has no more relevance to Modern China, it has problems, but I dont agree with 90% of his ideals..he lives in a bubble..and to compare China's govt to the Nazis is STUPID!!!!

[danpt2000]

@zzztop105: of course promoting democracy is noble. But I think Wei JingSheng have not done a thorough scrutiny of the history of so-called democratic Western nations, including that of Australia. As late as the 1960s these Democratic Western nations have been struggling with granting equal rights to people of non European Race, and of granting equal rights to Women. They appear democratic simply due to overwhelming material wealth.

[Rauhel]

whoa talk about serious issues....

[loveforchina]

Wei Jingsheng is a hero

[spiritwonderman]

Wei Jingsheng & Anthony S. Martin is at similar fate. Been advised by High International Authorities to inquire China to remove Communism there before all accounts of ASBLP Group of Companies & Bank of ASBLP there had been opened. I don't know what kind of issue is this.

[fomiz]

Why doesn't anyone talk about the amusing parts of this video, such as the conversation where they discuss about wei not having teeth when he first left prison. LMAO.

[fomiz]

Call me stupid, but why should anyone from the West help Chinese politics?

[Idude893]

Because the U.S. is currently as screwed up as China till Bush resigns.

[fomiz]

You still haven't explained Westerners should help China.

[Idude893]

China has a extremely poor human rights record, and the people are suffering. Do you want the west to ignore that?

[fomiz]

You still haven't answered my question. Why should the west help.

" Why should they? "

[Idude893]

BECAUSE THEY CAN, I guess you and the west is just going to stand there when people from another country are suffering from a regrime that takes away the rights of people.

The west has to help the chinese people because they can. China is becoming the world's largest superpower, and yet they have one of the world's worst human rights records. Their industry and government is full of corruption, and you've seen them churn out toxic milk and toys.

[Idude893]

If China becomes the world's greatest superpower in a state like this, something terrible is going to happen.

[fomiz]

Talk about being ambiguous and scare mongering.

Can you tell me specifically what you think the "...something terrible is going to happen.." will be?

And more to the point.How the hell do you know this.Have you got a crystal bowl that predicts the future?

[fomiz]

"BECAUSE THEY CAN.." That is why you think the West should waste further billions of dollars on a war with China just because they can?

I don't know if you are keeping up to date with recent events,but let me remind you of the mess left in Iraq when the West intervened there.

The CPC are not going to allow the West to dictate how they should run their country.Are they?Of course,not that will result in war.And you can protest until you're blue in the face.That too isn't going to change shit.

[fomiz]

If you ask me,but that is only if you ask me.I say "fuck 'em".Leave the Chinese to sort out their own mess.The West will only loose money and lives if they get involved.

Besides if you ask many Chinese about their country they will tell you it is the best in the world.That is why those cheeky-bastards protest in France,UK,Korea,and Japan.Something they would probably not be allowed to do in their own country.

[Idude893]

I said the west, I never mentioned the United States. The United States cannot help China till they sort out the crisis in their own country.

And I never said that we should start a war. China needs to change its ways, and it's the job of the other countries to help China change.

[Idude893]

"Leave the Chinese to sort out their own mess."

The Chinese people tried, but the government wouldn't listen. Even now, there's censorship, abuse and corruption.

[fomiz]

Ask me if I give a fuck. Hell no, I don't give a fuck.Let the Chinese born for all I care.The cheeky bastards come to my country and protest against my government, so "fuck 'em".

[Idude893]

I pity you.

[fomiz]

save your pity for the chinese

[Idude893]

You are one of the most heartless people I ever met on Youtube. So you're just going to stand there and do nothing to help suffering people.

[fomiz]

No!I am not, "just going to stand there and do nothing to help suffering people"

I am going to work,pay my taxes,party when I can.Buy the latest fashion and finest food/travel when I can afford it and generally try to enjoy my life before I die.

Isn't that what many Chinese citizens are doing?

Fucking retard.You make out like China has a regime like North Korea,but you ask most of the millions of Chinese abroad/in China they will tell you they love their lives and their country.Dipshit!

[Idude893]

Ask the family who had their house razed down without warning by the government.

Ask the relatives of a man wrongfully imprisoned for expressing his opinions.

Ask the Falun Gong practitioner who was brutally beaten up by policemen

Ask the parents of the students who died in the Sichuan Earthquake due to extremely poor construction approved by the government.

[Idude893]

The only things that seperate China from North Korea is more open borders, better economy, slightly better rights, a lack of a CURRENT supreme leader treated as a god, and a river with several bridges across.

[fomiz]

You've successfully managed to take this argument off on a tangent,but still not been able to answer the original question.

Why the fuck should the West help the Chinese?Especially when the average Chinese cheeky bastard abroad have the same access to foreign media but protest in other people's country against foreign media and don't want to help their own people.

[Idude893]

I cannot understand a thing you're saying due to your terrible grammar.

[fomiz]

Good excuse.You managed to comprehend everything else before,why not now?

If you ask my opinion,but that's just if you ask.LOL.I think you know your argument is flawed.

The West are rightfully letting the Chinese take care of their own affairs,and not interfering.Especially when it is no Benefit to the West.

End of debate!

[Idude893]

Are you saying that the west is doing the right thing by ignoring the miseries of people under a corrupt government, just because they won't gain any benefits?

[fomiz]

Stupid bastard.Read again.

[Idude893]

China tried to take care of their affairs, but as you see on the news, they failed. Nations need to help other nations if they are able to, even if there is no benefit for the helping nation.

[fomiz]

Becomes a politician or tell someone that cares.

[Idude893]

Judging by the comments on your profile and your bad grammar, I assume that you have no life.

There are people I know who are more open minded than you.

[fomiz]

"No life"?It takes one to know one,honey.You hypocritical piece of shit.You've way more critical comments on your profile.Looks like you're the one with no life and loves to argue with randoms on YouTube.Pathetic little fucker, aint ya?

Judging from your obsession with grammar on fucking YouTube.You are certainly not a native English speaker and have very little understand of politics.

Now go and do the thing that is most important in your life.Leave a comment response on someones video.LMAO.

[Idude893]

What gender and age are you?

[fomiz]

Wow!A response in less than 2 minutes.You are lonely aint ya and this must be so important to you.LOL.

Stop trying to make friends on YouTube.Go and brush your teeth and take a shower,leave your room and actually go and meet people in the real world.

Loser!

[Idude893]

Hey, I'm not the one insulting and swearing at people like some guy from Scientology.

[Idude893]

You're a 28 year old woman? People might think that you're trying to get people to hang themselves.

Don't you have shame? You know, some kid might be on Youtube and you're going to bring them down without mercy, too?

[fomiz]

Stop sending me messages,freak!If you wanna go and commit suicide because of a YouTube argument then be my guest.You fucking looser.

[Idude893]

I'm not sending messages, I'm replying to comments. Don't you know a thing about Youtube?

[fomiz]

I'm done arguing with you now.You clearly couldn't answer the original question about the West so you're just raising any point to argue about.

You're such a looser.Any response you send to me now will be happily ignored.Have a nice SHORT life.

[Idude893]

Funny, my life has just begun.

Remember, you're the one who's throwing insults at people, not me.

[DogyKane]

if the lack of political reform could ultimately take china 2 turmoil, why US ask them to reform???

from this way of think, why not American work and support Communist party, and use their brutal dictatorship and corruption as weapon to bring China down??? XD

[WJFoundation]

Mr. Wei,

TRUE HERO TO THE WORLD!!!!

LOVE DIANE G

[Chowdder]

Not saying that I adore China's human rights record, but how can people in China criticize a government during a growing economy? Think of the government as a parent. If your parents are rich assholes to others, but they feed and cloth you. Well, you really are not motivated to say anything bad about them (even if you know they are morally corrupt). At least not from your personal perspective. On top of that, Chinese tradition preaches to always respect and honor your parents.

[highroller12208]

I would criticize my parents if they came over, bulldozed my fucking house, and force aborted my child

[Chowdder]

Yes I would too, but you didn't get the analogy of my comment. I said they are assholes "to others", not to you. Basically you will not be effected by their actions. Are you morally bound to beat down your parents, even when they care for you?

Most people in China don't criticize the government because they only experience the positive aspects. Those who have been wronged by the government have a right to criticize, but what good does that do if people around them doesn't care.

[highroller12208]

I criticize the US Gov't and they haven't "directly" wronged me as you put it, except for the fact that they ban drugs, guns, and enslave me for three months of the year through the income tax and social security system

[Komsip]

This guy is obviously a nutjob. No one can take this person seriously.

[ilovebath]

轮，毒，运，倭 操你们妈

[raven1234]

un-addressed insult?? to who?

[bluefish504]

The dissidents have bankrupted their credibility with the Chinese people. Ordinary Chinese dispise those "dissidents", they are only used by the Westerners to slander China.

google the Pew Research newest opinion survey. Chinese people give the highest rating of their government anywhere in the world.

[nepalichoro]

Picking people from prisons and streets to take their organs?Now, who would believe that?

I agree about Human Rights(HR), as others do..but my question to Western People is, will you please start talking about Human Rights of those innocent civilians that are being killed in Iraq n Afghanistan..when it comes to HR, I think, all humans are Humans and they deserve HR whether they are Muslims/Chinese..Do you want to be called hypocrites?

Media has very successfully brainwashed Western..I can c it

[dsdjohn1]

Middle East is a war zone where innocent can be killed by mistake or on purpose but Western and it Government is fighting Terrorist and militia also. Is China a war zone? comparing China government and police attack on human right to a war zone in the middle East.

I would respect China but not the abused government.

Everywhere is human abused and Foreigner is almost everywhere so guys stop talking about HR abused to West or in China in a argument. when there abused, the foreigner be there.

中國國家恐怖主義的一項特質就是對法治的全然蔑視。中國獨裁者踐­踏中國的憲法，並且破壞人民組成的國會。整個國家機器就只為獨裁­者個人及執政黨服務而已。當政者可以不必依據任何法律，就將人民­送進勞改營；可以不必任何理由，就將無辜的人民凌虐至死。他們可­以因個人的信仰而屠殺人民，像法輪功的信眾及達賴喇嘛的追隨者就­是最好的例子。中國政府逮捕參與以社會或國家為活動目標的活躍份­子，因為他們認為這些人對共產黨的權威是一種挑戰。那些被謀殺或­逮捕的人，不僅肉體受催殘，他們的靈魂與精神也受到打擊。盛雪, 一位流亡在加拿大的中國記者與活躍份子, 估計中國的執政當局自共產黨在中國大陸取得政權之後，已經屠殺了­超過八千萬的中國人民 。

[jiangfzmg]

the human rights regime have the new's?

[zzztop105]

Wei Jingsheng is a admirable freedom fighter. He indeed has clear insight into CCP very few people have. I wish more world leaders listen to him on the matter of china.

[danpt2000]

@zzztop105: Cont. - The world Mercantalist system left behind from days of Colonialism/Imperialism of 19th century allowed Europeans,Americans and Australians to demand Democratic reforms. Ask your self this, Why did Marxist /Communist ideology originate in Europe?  Look at the time period known as Industrial Revolution, and look at the dates of emergence of Marxism in Germany.

[danpt2000]

@zzztop105: Cont. The Chinese economic development was made possible by enormous pool of labor from China's countryside. Its made even cheaper across international borders due to suppression of Yuan value. Yet, instead of commending the Chinese for their hard labor, providing the world with affordable consumer electronics, clothing, etc .etc.. Western media bashes China, and tries to paint China as a threat to world stability.

[patiencepoet]

OMG!

[GrownupPhan]

This reporter shouldn't insist they comment. Didn't he hear what happened to the student who got press back in China for merely attending a college event about Tibet? They obviously didn't want their faces on YouTube.

[the0mafia0whore]

Thank you for the video = D

[kaiyokemp]

中國是世界上最大的國家恐怖主義者

根據牛津高等辭典的定義，「恐怖主義」就是「使用暴力和以暴力威­脅為手段，以達成政治 目的的作為」；維京線上百科全書對「國家恐怖主義」的定義則是「­由政府所執行或贊助的 恐怖主義。就像一般恐怖主義一樣，國家恐怖主義牽涉到對老百姓蓄­意的攻擊，以遂行政治 或宗教上的目的。」

以其廣闊的領土、眾多的人口，尤其再加上惡名昭彰的極權政府，中­國擁有世界上最大的國 家恐怖主義。中國共產黨奉行「槍桿子出政權」的教條，他們也因此­而在中國大陸取得政權 。中國一向以國家恐怖主義為工具，來維持個人的絕對權力以及對政­權的維繫與控制。中國 國家恐怖主義對個人、社會、國家、以及全世界的影響與衝擊絕對不­可低估與輕忽，因為它 是世界上最大的國家恐怖主義者，而且有成為國際超級強國的野心。

[starview1]

Communists are communists, simply a bad and lost cause that at the end of the day offers nothing to the human race. Communism is realy a group of control freaks, freaks that the people are stuck with, in the UK or USA for example, the citizens vote those people out,takes time but it gets done,the individual in China have no such voice,without facing jail as MR.Jingsheng had to deal with for years.

[gongchang02]

So what do you suggest here? Overthrowing a party that is leading a huge country? Just do everything against the communists is in the best interests of the Chinese?

Communists also solve poverty issues, sovereinty issues, education and many others. Just do everything against communists is not a good choice.

If you want to comment on China,at least you should know it is Mr. Wei in stead of Mr Jingsheng.

[starview1]

gongchang02 Mr. Wei in stead of Mr Jingsheng, I know,I had entered the whole name but only part appeared, go figure? anyhow Mr. Wei is doing good work,in time communists will loose just like it's failed elsewhere This surge to capitalism,is unchecked,causing China to be the worlds biggest polluter in all the worst ways.Water is fouled up,air is fouled up people get sick and have no where to turn unless western media picksup on it China has nowhere near the checks and balances of WesternCountries

[zzztop105]

Wei Jingsheng is a courageous person. He speaks out what average chinese have in their mind but dare not to say in public. He hits the nerve of CCP. Right on, Mr. Wei.

[lujooo]

Personal emotion to resent CCP. It can be understand, but they can't be justice and stand out the benefit of Chinese people.

[icewine000000]

Brainwash? we grow up in the west, how the CCP can brainwash us?

Wei Jingsheng is just a stupid, selfish man. who cares about what he say.

[maple2000new]

If he stands together with those "free Tibet" guys, he is deemed a traitor to the Chinese people. No matter what he did when he was in China. He knows nothing currently occurring in China and he belongs to the past, not the future of China.

[lesmcluffalot]

Kewlios

[icewine000000]

Nobody is afraid of Wei jingSheng,

we just don't like him.

I don't know why the people that most Chinese people don't like, but western country like...

We don't think Wei Jing Sheng represent most of Chinese.

[arafel1964]

US needs to stay out of China's business, we can't be world police?

If we all thought that, Hitlers nazi Germany would maybe still exist. It's our plight to oppose unjustice. Everywhere, all around the world.

[HillBillyDrew]

Yes but when it get's as public as it is, and we find out how people get treated because they try and have the same rights as the rest of us do, we can't just step aside and say, let's not deal with this, everybody should have equal rights and it's our duty to show other countries how to treat people and show how it will be good for the country and everybody around them

[arafel1964]

Mine utmost respect for Wei Jingsheng and other Chinese activists who are all risking at least house arrest, more often getting detained and/or tortured and possible shot down in worst cases if they don't flee the country. And yes, please more human rights in China. As soon as possible.

[apta216]

there alot of chinese in england, england is starting to look like america ?

[ejoliver2]

U.S. needs to stay out of China's business we have enough problems already we cant go around being world police or moral judges, they have there culture and government and we have ours. Hopefully they can change by themselves no one else needs to interfear.

[gjanie]

It seems that in China human rights are violated for not thinking or being communist and in Latin America during the 60, 70's and 80's human rights were violated for fear of being communist. Democracy could work, the problem is that countries like the US and UK don't make it work to their advantage. If you have money you have the upper hand, if you don't then you are nobody. This is the way in ANY kind of goverment or belief system.

[n701204x]

I don't know why anyone would think a chinese speaking Socialist such as Rudd would have any interest in bringing democracy to China.

And with all due respect Australia has little pull around the globe.

The US is the only country who could really help the Chinese democracy progress but we are attatched to the damn Chinese at the hip(or ATM) so we can't really make waves.

[indiastud]

Very good video about this huge problem in China. The free world can not stand by and allow this tyrannical government to commit genocide against its own people and the people of Tibet.

[binyard]

china has pollution in the air

[gjanie]

It's not the only country with polluted cities but yeah it does have 10 of the most polluted cities in the world.

[numba1stunna4269]

Wei Jingsheng deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. He is a true patriot. Any country would be extremely lucky to have a citizen like him.

[brycerice1]

interesting~

[fatpiglazy]

China's democracy movement?? I am surprised people haven't killed him yet. If i see him, i am going to kill him.

[paultherolls]

This is a tough row to hoe. He deserves whatever support we can give him. China is about power and control.

[bg24955]

wei has been seen hanging out with free tibet, FLG and Taiwan pan green groups. He was definitely a key speaker at free tibet concert. he has gone beyond the line.

China has changed, so was he.

[brycerice1]

ya.. it is so sad, what has happened to him..

I agree that democracy should eventually be brought into China, but I'm not sure I trust any of these groups to be able to implement it successfully, as you say (definitely not FLG or Free Tibet, in any case.. especially with their extremism).

I get the feeling that 魏京生 wants China to change fast, no matter how the change happens (and I don't blame him),yet I unfortunately don't think any rapid changes could effectively take place in today's Ch

[bg24955]

Incidentally, my father thinks exactly the way wei thinks. It could be the generation thing. BTW my father was a hardcore red guard, and in the 60's walked from Shanghai to Shaoshang Hunan to pay his revolutionary respect to Mao. I guess like wei after great disappointment comes with great skepticism.

[uch]

china should never become a demoicracy..demoractic governments are imperialists..just like UK and US
