Good point. A lot of the people urged to hated communism or socialist systems, actually live within them and don't realize it.

If you're Mormon, the group harvesting and food storage your ward does, and shares, is a form of communal living.

If you go hunting in the woods (on public land), you are enjoying the fruits of land held in common. Now, if that land was owned by wealthy people and you had to pay to hunt there, that's capitalism.

There was no communist regime in the soviet union and there is none in china. There is a big difference between a military dictatorship with planned economy and communism. But traditionally capitalistic dictatorships like the USA or the UK ignore this fact, because they don't want the people to know what communism really is. That communism is "bad" is a doctrine so deeply installed in the mind of the people that you could compare it with the "virgin birth" mentioned in some "holy" scripture.

goto china first, then you have the right to say something about china.

it's nauseating to see these slanted-eye worms quarrel with each other.

Had the US sat and watched the Japs massacring all chinks and then sank japan to the bottom of the ocean with nukes in WWII, there wouldn't be such fuss these days.

Fucking chinks and fucking Japs

@michigofang Well, China is growing isn't it? It makes sense that the media (controlled by countries who don't want China to grow and become a potential enemy with equal or more power) attacks China and makes it look like it is the Devil's land. When in truth, China's just another country doing what is best for itself, not perfectly, but not imperfectly either.

@rice0boy0 Lmao

But the majority out there just tries hard to ruin China`s reputation. No, it`s not true? Tell me no, i really hope it`s not. I just dont understand why people have so many hates against China. The media says China blah, blah, blah, then, what u will hear from people is Chinese Blah, blah,blah.U people see the tricky thing here?No matter what i say, there`ll be few voices to be heard. when you go to university, the first thing u might be learning is critical thinking,Go 2China, prove it urself

[michigofang]

people are always trying to compare US society system and Chinese society system, are they really comparable? I`m afraid no. you compare something which is based on different laws and customs and history factors. Actually, i really doubt those people saying ``free speech``, ``free press`` no matter what races, how many of them saying it because they want to see a democracy country ?( I agree that democracy is the right way to form a country). Well, i believe therè are some.

Yeah, there is a lot of racism and police being totally neurotic and crazy now. But here we have rights, and can press charges against them. In China, you'd just be beaten or detained. If and when you went to trial it would look NOTHING like what we see on Law & Order. Chinese courts can be super unfair. In the U.S. you can get screwed too if your lawyer sucks, but in China and other countries your immeasurably worse off.

[crock703]

Except in China they call it communism/socialism, when in reality, its just oligarchy.

The difference (economically & politically) is democratic nations can elect people who put this unequal system into place -- in China, there's no choice. Its imposed and you can deal with it or leave.
