Did you catch my pioint ? I mean that The China Communist Party only censors the information about themselves and only give out the good information about themselves but only censors the information about the dark side of CCP.
As to others ,such as philosophy,art ,history of usa ,how to fish, etc ,they will never censor. Can you know my meaning know?
To be honest , I am not a communist.
They only sencors the bad news about themselves.In fact that news will do nothing good to the commen people .And useless for your daily lives.It is politics.
Ok, let's say the only dark side of the ccp is the Tiananmen Square massacre. Fine, say they censor that. How is freedom for Tibet, Taiwan independence, democracy, human rights, etc. a dark side of the ccp? I see it as idea/events in history that everyone should have free access to. Is it bad to research democracy? Is it bad to research the true history of Tibetans? Is it wrong to know what your rights are as a human being?
You say that it is news that will do nothing good to the common people, but the same could be said about 30% of everything else on the internet but the ccp doesn't censor that? I wouldn't say that this info was useless; trivial maybe, but who is anyone to limit the pursuit of knowledge? Shouldn't everyone be free to learn what they want to and decide for themselves what they think is important or not? The American government has had MANY dark sides in its short history and yet I can access every bit of it on the internet. The same could be said of any Westernized nation. Look at Europe, it has not exactly enjoyed a rich and colorful history filled with balloons and ice cream. Why not let knowledge flow freely and let the people decide for themselves?

bulldogg, I really doubt if you can speak chinese, I guess you were really bored, it's not going to be possible for you to have fun in a country without knowing its language. it's not use to blaim this country, you see how busy that i am, I will have to talk to you when having a party.
Oh good, can't debate because you argue against truth and 99% of everyone here realizes it so you attack the person? This is a sign of 1) immaturity, 2) you ran out of material to argue with, or 3) you got owned and is now trying to change subjects. Let's stick to the debate plz. And what party?
Everytime I read yours, yingying's, and even our banned friend chinese-canadian's posts, I get a deeper and deeper look into the kind of stuff the ccp teaches their young, and then I realize why nations prefer to send their young to Westernized nations (plus Japan... you need a miracle to get into the Univ. of Tokyo) rather than China for higher educations. Hell, even the Chinese send their young here to get educated. LOL
As for the lady who interrupted the presidential meeting, my utmost respect goes to her for standing up for what she believes in. Bonus points for doing it during Hu's turn at the podium.
