The media for news are definitely manufacturing sites. The whole idea is to stir up interest, so events are distorted, exaggerated, magnified, blown up, inflated, thereby manufacturing some "news" and erroneous general impressions. How many Tibetans were recently murdered while trying to escape? Just how big is this phenomenon in 2006? How can we be sure that it actually happened in 2006? When there's no material for news a news factory can always dig up history. You talk about "Chinese murderous cruelty". This says to me that you are saying murderous cruelty is a typical characteristic of Chinese people. Why not say communist? The Chinese communists really differ in only unimportant detail from Soviet ones or East Germany's "Democratic Republic" communists. They are in their game for power. If you just say Chinese you are being intolerably racist. Surely your own experience with Chinese people must smash your mudslinging "murderous cruelty" idea. I've met some Chinese persons who were murderously cruel. All of them, without exception, were either Kuomintang or Communists. In the latter case, in the beginning, the party had many idealistic, highly moral people, ready to sacrifice themselves, not at all ready to murder innocents. Most of this type of communist were, shall we say, "eliminated" by the cruel ones. That evolution also happened in the Soviet party. |
