6. Just start posting lots of stuff on Free Republic about Tiananmen Square and Tibet.
Edited on Wed Mar-07-07 04:40 PM by IanDB1
That will get THEM blocked, too.

11. Why would we want them blocked in China?
It's here where I'd like to see them blocked. Let them go to China. They belong there.

7. Strange, but when I was in China 9 months ago I had no problem accessing DU
Edited on Wed Mar-07-07 04:44 PM by still_one
that was both from an internet cafe, and my hotel room

I haven't examined the creators of that link, but I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't a Tawian bias

I have never had any internet access problems the numerous times I have been to China

Not, saying it isn't occurring now, but it sure wasn't my experience

39. Last time I was there, I had problems accessing DU...
but that was because of the earthquake in Taiwan degraded all US site access. Never have had a problem getting DU in China. In fact, there's a DUer from Zhongshan I know that posts here on occasion.

8. Hey FR, who do you think has been helping China gain ground all these years? Bush family fascists.
A few deals with some Chinese industrialists and WalMart in the 70s, and a few more fascist deals in the 80s and 90s via Uncle and Poppy Bush and voila - the rise of global fascism.

23. Nice post. Thoughtful.
Edited on Wed Mar-07-07 04:53 PM by happydreams
In Hitchens book: "The Trial of Henry Kissassinger" he mentions how Henry sought a delay in sanctioning China over Tianenmen Square because Kissinger&Assosiates had investments there.

9. That site is cool as hell... but it does say that they are having
hacker problems and all results may not be accurate, so lets wait till they get it fixed, and then we can commence with calling the freepers commies.

25. Authoritarians with lock-step party line mentality on the left and on the right
seem to have less fear of each other than they do of free-thinking, grass roots, muck-raking Liberals and Progressives.

40. Freepers are authoritarian; Communists are authoritarian; we aren't
We support human rights and constitutional liberties. The Freepers don't and the Chinese Communists, like many Freepers, think dissidnets should be shot in the streets.

53. Church Comittee: USSR hated MLK because
he was leading people away from the communist cause. Apparently the communist cause didn't have much to do with civil rights etc.
