Neo-Cons luv Communist China
For decades now, the U.S. American politic right has reduced the left to a generalized frame. They have even converged the Islamo religious right to the left. This is lousy propaganda and fails miserably to any one with a modicum of a brain. Now irony comes into play. The traditional right has always been virulently anti-communist. Since former Trotskyites and ex-Scoop Jackson freaks transmogrified into Neo-Conservatives, they find themselves in a contradictory position of being defenders of Stalinist China. Or they are just laconic. And who is the vanguard of the fight against Chinas social-imperialist hold on Tibet? The anti-authoritarian left.
Fox news geeks are dispensing red bating to the Obama presidential campaign. This is typical of the traditional right and is to be expected. But how do they reckon with Red China holding our debt? How do they explain Islamo-Fascism in Saudi Arabia? Why...it has been said that their government is more repressive than Saddam’s regime in Iraq. But they are allies in the global war against terror. Approximately 16 of those 19 hijackers of 9-11 were Saudis. Contradictions aside, this is pure empirical evidence that the left are champions of freedom. Yes, we have our heretics, from Stalin to Castro, but left wing Anarchists from the First International warned the world about the Bolsheviks in the early 20th Century.
You talk to a right-winger about Communism; they constantly bring up red atrocities from decades past. Since they think in generalized terms, they can’t phantom the concept of leftist schism. To them, a spade is a spade. If you are confronted with this misguided point of view, then you ask if the Mormons are true Christians? Then the point will hit them like electric shock therapy.
I find refreshing that there is world solidarity with the People of Tibet, however Democracy begins at home. If we don’t fight the Neo-con agenda, then we will have our own Tienanmen Square massacre

1. China is a GOP wet dream

They cannot make this country like China fast enough. No environmental laws, one party politics, suppression of dissent, control of free speech, A labor market where a PhD nets you around 10-12$ an hour - China has it all by Republican standards.

You can always tell when someone from the GOP returns from a visit to the mainland - they look like eager hogs on the way to the trough. Their friends in Chinese government & big biz have shown them how to take a piece of China home to you and me.

2. I could not have said it better myself

Mainland China is a Randian paradise. Ship all the objectivists over there and they will just go ga-ga.
