中国资产外流减缓通胀
Outflow of Money Eases Runaway Inflation

Stealth Withdrawal of Wealth From China By Its Entrepreneurs Unwittingly Helped China Avert Runaway Inflation. But That Practice Is About To Be Halted.

by Bill Sardi

Predictions that economic bubbles would pop in an ever-growing Chinese economy have been frequent over the past 10 years. But prognosticators failed to realize that Chinese bankers are more conservative than the colleagues in the US and require 30-60% down payment on home loans. Furthermore, as China captured trillions of dollars in US money, it set much of it aside to guard against run-away inflation and to pour into the economy as the meltdown in the US economy beginning in 2008 resulted in a decline in exports from China to the US.

Certainly China over-responded to this crisis and went so far as to build whole cities that remain unoccupied. However, incomes there are simply not sufficient for people to move into these modernized communities.

China is cunning. It holds over $1 trillion in US treasury bills that may never be repaid in full value. It has begun to seek tangible wealth rather than hold US T-bills and has conducted a worldwide search to buy minerals, oil, unprecedented amounts of gold in the form of US bullion coins, or to obtain long-term contracts for the same, and to barter without using the US dollar as the medium of exchange. Marc Faber, financial commentator based in Asia, says China puts its money into building infrastructure whereas the US puts its newly printed money into consumption. American consumption also boosts China’s exports.

What all the analysts missed, while they predicted the huge expansion of credit in China to result in uncontrolled inflation, was that much of China’s money was covertly leaving the country, serving as a counterbalance in its economy.

Gordon Chang, a writer and commentator on Chinese affairs, wrote a largely overlooked article (just 3 posted comments on it) that was published online at Forbes.com in June of 2011. Chang’s report, entitled "Chinese Entrepreneurs Are Leaving China," said wealthy Chinese are leaving the country in droves and taking their money with them. How much money? (Are you sitting down?) An estimated $2.18 trillion exited China in hidden cash transfers between 2000 and 2008. Whoa!

We know the Greeks are funneling their money into overseas banks, but that amounts to a vacuum of just $16 billion. But what is going on in China is a game changer for the whole world, especially if covert methods to move Chinese money offshore is put to a halt, as it is predicted will occur sometime soon with a leadership change and accompanying financial reforms in China.

The US has benefited immensely from the entry of Chinese money into its economy. According to Chang, in the last five years there has been a 73% increase in Chinese investment to the United States. Chinese people are seen on bus tours in California, visiting real estate properties and paying the full purchase price in cash money. But just exactly how do the Chinese funnel their money out of the country?

A US real estate executive gives us a hint at the answer to this question when he said in a 2009 interview published in China Daily that he didn’t think most Chinese individuals would qualify to purchase property in the US "unless the money is already here."

The Chinese have had centuries of practice to side-step government confiscation of their money. One method is to export goods from China to the US in a shipping container where, in this example, the bill of lading cites 1000 cases of widgets being shipped. But there are actually 1400 cases of widgets inside the container. The profits from the sale of 1000 cases of widgets is returned to China, but the extra 400 cases are sold and Chinese goods are converted into US money where a Chinese counterparty here in the US houses it, sometimes in Chinese banks located here in the US. This is how Chinese home buyers get their cash to buy properties at full price. Chinese families send their children to be schooled in America, and the money for their education is already in the US. None of it has been taxed by China or the US.

Chang quotes economic analyst Zhong Dajun to say: "We have been working hard to develop the economy in the past 30 years, but now these elite members of society are fleeing with the majority of the wealth." "The loss may be even higher than all the foreign investment we have attracted."

Xi Jinping is expected to become the next Party general secretary at the end of 2012 and it is rumored that the hemorrhage of money from China will be put to a halt with economic reforms. That will be a game-changing event.

China averted a flood of money hitting their economy and causing run-away inflation in part because Chinese entrepreneurs were siphoning money away overseas. Will a closure of this exit door then result in predicted inflation? My bet is the Chinese will be smart enough to dampen this threat.

China has a bigger default to face – that of the US’ inability to pay back over $1 trillion China loaned to America in purchasing US Treasury bills. The Chinese know, if inflation drives up the cost of food that it must avert unrest in the streets. China could be forced to accept pennies on the dollar for these T-bills and receive its deflated money in the form of containers of grain and other foodstuffs from the US, who already supplies China with record sales of foodstuffs now.

China knows it is holding a diminishing asset in US T-bills. So does the rest of the world. The US economy keeps getting propped by its lenders. A US default on its debt would result in an implosion of the world’s economies. At some point the US will not be able to pay interest on its debt and be forced to default and the dollar will collapse. That day may come sooner than predicted. John Williams of ShadowStats.com says the outside date for that event is 2014 (ShadowStats report #414). Then what?

Jeremy Lin vs. Los Angeles Lakers

林书豪给我们的十个启示
Just Lin, Baby!

Eric Jackson (Forbes Magazine)

10 Lessons Jeremy Lin Can Teach Us Before We Go To Work Monday Morning

Lin-sanity has swept up the NBA over the last week. Now it seems like the phenomenon has gone worldwide.

Friday’s 38 point performance by Harvard grad Jeremy Lin for the New York Knicks against the LA Lakers was his greatest performance yet as a starter, since he burst on to the scene and propelled the team to 4 straight wins.

Lin now has over 200,000 followers on Twitter. He’s got over 800,000 on Weibo – including 200,000 new ones in the 24 hour period after beating the Lakers.

But there’s more to this story than basketball. This isn’t just a modern-day, real-life version of the Hoosiers movie. The Jeremy Lin story is incredibly popular because we can all see a little bit of ourselves in this man’s struggles and now successes.

What can all of us learn from this young man — and how can we apply these same lessons to our own lives when we go back to work on Monday morning?

1. Believe in yourself when no one else does. 坚信自身

Lin’s only the 3rd graduate from Harvard to make it to the NBA. He’s also one of only a handful of Asian-Americans to make it. He was sent by the Knicks to play for their D-League team 3 weeks ago in Erie, PA. He’d already been cut by two other NBA teams before joining the Knicks this year. You’ve got to believe in yourself, even when no one else does.

2. Seize the opportunity when it comes up. 抓住机遇

Lin got to start for the Knicks because they had to start him. They had too many injuries. Baron Davis was gone. The other point guards were out. Carmelo Anthony was injured. Amare Stoudemire had to leave the team because of a family death. Lin could have squandered the opportunity and we would have never have noticed. But he made the most of it. You never know when opportunities are going to arise in life. Often, they’re when you least expect them. Make the most of them. Don’t fritter them away.

3. Your family will always be there for you, so be there for them. 欣赏亲助

It wasn’t until a few days ago that Lin got his contract guaranteed by the Knicks for the rest of the season. Before that, he could have been cut at any time. He had to sleep on his brother’s couch on the Lower East Side to get by. His family always believed in him and picked him up when he could have gotten down on himself. That made him continue to believe. If you want your family to believe in you like that, you’ve got to be there for them too when they need it.

4. Find the system that works for your style. 发现适己

Lin isn’t Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant. He’s not a pure scorer. He’s a passer and distributor – who can also score very well. It didn’t work for him in Golden State or Houston – where he was before landing at the Knicks. But Mike D’Antoni’s system at the Knicks has been perfect for him to show off his strengths. You’ve got to do your best to understand what your strengths are and then ensure that you’re in a system (a job or organization or industry) that is a good fit for those strengths. Otherwise, people overlook the talents you bring to the table.

5. Don’t overlook talent that might exist around you today on your team. 莫错良才

You probably manage people at your own company today. Are you sure you don’t have a Jeremy Lin living among you now? How do you know that “Mike” couldn’t do amazing things if you gave him a new project to run with? How do you know “Sarah” isn’t the right person to take the open job in London that you’ve been talking over with your colleagues? We put people around us in boxes. He’s from Harvard. He’s Asian-American. Not sure he can play. How many assumptions have you made about talent around you? Don’t be like the General Managers in Golden State and Houston, and let talent slip through your fingers. With all their money, scouts, and testing, they didn’t have a clue what they had in their hands. Do you know what your people (or even yourself) is really capable of? Take off the blinders of assumptions you wear when you look at the world.

6. People will love you for being an original, not trying to be someone else. 忠实原己

You’ve got to be you. You can’t be some 2nd rate copy of Michael Jordan. There will never be another Michael Jordan. Just be Jeremy Lin — yourself. Whatever that is. That doesn’t mean you don’t work hard — it just means you find what you’re good at and do it. Fans will love you for being you, just like they love Jeremy Lin. Judy Garland said it best:

“Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.”

7. Stay humble. 避免枉大

If you one day are lucky enough to have newspapers want to put you on the cover in order to sell more, don’t let it get to your head. It’s been remarkable watching how humble Lin remains through all this media frenzy. It makes his teammates and fans love him that much more.

8. When you make others around you look good, they will love you forever. 尊重同仁

I didn’t know how good Tyson Chandler was, until I saw him playing with Jeremy Lin. Lin has set Chandler up many times over the last week for easy dunks because he drew the defense and then passed the ball. That’s partly why the Knicks are playing so well. They are all working harder to share the ball with others. And it’s beautiful to watch. And when the media swarms Lin, he tells them how good his teammates are. Do the same with your peers and reports.

9. Never forget about the importance of luck or fate in life. 不忘感恩

Some people believe in God, some in destiny, some in luck. Whatever you believe in, be grateful for it.

10. Work your butt off. Lin couldn’t have seized his opportunity if he hadn’t worked like crazy for years perfecting his skills. 不走捷径

There are no short cuts to hard work. Success is a by product of that. If you’ve got a Tiger Mom who’s always pushed you to work hard, great. If not, let your conscience be your own Tiger Mom! Get up early, stay up late. Nobody gave Lin any free passes. Why should you get any? You can only control what you control and that means you’ve got to work harder than anyone else you know.

I hope the Lin-sanity continues. And I hope we all can apply these lessons to our own work and family life.

There’s a great line from a New York Times article on Lin and his faith which is worth it for all of us to remember:

“suffering produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not disappoint us.”

Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) had a strong message Saturday for President Barack Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz: “Get the hell out.”

West made the comments during a speech at a Palm Beach County GOP event in West Palm Beach.

“This is a battlefield that we must stand upon. And we need to let President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and my dear friend, chairman of the Democrat National Committee, we need to let them know that Florida ain’t on the table,” West said.

The audience was booing by the time West got to Pelosi’s name.

“Take your message of equality of achievement, take your message of economic dependency, take your message of enslaving the entrepreneurial will and spirit of the American people somewhere else,” he continued. “You can take it to Europe, you can take it to the bottom of the sea, you can take it to the North Pole, but get the hell out of the United States of America.”

- The trio of tyrannies and its horrific effect on the formation of Chinese slave mindset – a treatise and indictment on the Chinese dehumanization process -

By Kai Chen 陈凯 （Written 4/10/2006, Reprint 1/18/2012)

　　As people puzzled over the persistence of the Chinese communist regime after the collapse of the communism as an ideology world wide, only a few saw the roots of the Chinese despotism. Many are not willing, some not able, others lacking courage to recognize the connection between the Chinese traditional culture and the current deplorable state of affairs in China. Almost all reject even the slightest suggestion that the Chinese character-based, syllabic language has something to do with the formation of Chinese mind-set which can only be properly coined “complete slavery and dehumanization of human beings”.

　Some even suggest that preservation of a Confucian culture is paramount in reforming the Chinese society and curing the ills in the Chinese mind. To me this suggestion is tantamount to saying that solution to communist tyranny and dictatorship is the communist party, and the cure of AIDS is introducing more HIV virus. Some, with various motives and deep secret complex, come in a hurry to defend the indefensible cruel Chinese feudal culture. And they defend even with more vehemence than the despotic masters the origin of the Chinese tyranny – the character-based, syllabic Chinese language. The panic feels like as if someone is digging into their ancestors’ untouchable graves. It is as if someone is touching that “sacred cow” in their hearts. No matter how much they hate the Chinese communist party and its despotic regime, they are willing to defend the roots of it with their blood and lives. Sounds comically contradictory, doesn’t it? Some, even come with more hilarious accusation against those who point out the intrinsic and inseparable connection between the Chinese language and culture with the miserable human condition in China today, calling them “traitors of the Chinese race” and “harboring ulterior motives to demean the Chinese”, and “potential dictators in the future”….

Their entire defense not only fails to exonerate the evil culture that has been created to destroy individuals, humanity and freedom, their preposterous accusation against those who see the evil shows exactly how their mind-set of cultural, linguistic and governmental slavery has been formed. That mind-set is the living proof of the existence of evil.

The following is a treatise to detail the process of Chinese dehumanization of individuals through this “trio of tyrannies” and an indictment against this evil origin of the complete alienation and enslavement of Chinese mind over their own existence.

Chinese Linguistic Tyranny 中国文字语言的暴虐

(Since Chinese society is patriarchal in nature, I will use “man” and “he” in the composition of this essay. This is not to demean or ignore female human beings.)

From the moment a Chinese toddler starts to put sounds and symbols together, he is handed a brush with ink as his writing tool. (Nowadays a pen or pencil is usually the case) He is presented with a paper with lines and usually a series of rectangle boxes with four evenly divided quadrants in each box. In front of him is a text of writing samples dated maybe hundreds of years back to his ancestors. He is told that his task of learning to write is first and foremost to mimic the perfect symmetry and forms in those pictorial images his ancestors left for him. During this process of repetition, copy, mimic of his ancestors’ leftover in his initial contact with human knowledge, his own dehumanization against his own individuality has formally begun.

He learns that creativity and initiatives are not important; conformity is. He learns that his own mind is not important; his ancestors’ legacy is. He learns that he as an individual is not important; competing with others to see who comes closer to the original forms left by his ancestors is. He learns that meaning and substance of the word is not important; the appearance - the formation, the image and the shell is. He is further confounded, yet not knowing consciously, with the fact that language is not a tool to comprehend and analyze phenomena to reach to reality, rather it is an artistic endeavor to please the eye, and the others. However, in this supposed artistic endeavor, he is not allowed to create and produce. He is forced to copy, to memorize, to follow… His two hemispheres of the brain are inundated with conflicting input of symbols and images. (We now know that all humans have the same structure in their brains – one hemisphere in charge of language, analysis, abstract thinking, logic, rationality.., and the other art, music, concrete images, creative impulses…) His analytical hemisphere is being force-fed with pictorial images, instead of abstract symbols, while his artistic hemisphere is starved with a strict and deliberate stifling of his instinct and impulse to create. In learning to write the Chinese characters, he is weaving and knitting an elaborate and intricate mesh to smother his own brain, to restrict his own initiatives, to deny his individual uniqueness.

While humans are endowed by our creator to have a unique human quality to create, change and reform our surroundings and environment to serve our own purposes, as a distinctive quality from other creatures, the cruel and inhumane process of Chinese systematic stripping of this unique human quality has effectively taken place with their young, in the form of indoctrination of a confusing and crippling linguistic system. The very possibility of human creative spark is effectively eliminated. One does not have to snip the bud. The bud has never appeared for it has died long before it can ever manifest itself. The very mind of each distinct individual is thus insidiously being forced into a tiny rectangle box from which he will never be allowed to escape to return to his nature of free being.

By the time he is taught to compose sentences, he is further stripped of concept of time by a lack of tense in the Chinese verbs. Though the adverbs are constantly put in to modify the verbs, he has been reduced to never have had a strong sense of sequential events according to time. As his study of Chinese language progresses, he has found that he lacks a distinction between individual and collective, for in Chinese verbs there is no such differentiation of plural and singular. “People” can be viewed as something like an inseparable entity while an individual’s uniqueness is severely diminished. Last time I checked, a fascist view of collective as a living entity has the same connotation. He further learns that in pronunciation of chinese third personnel, there is no distinction between genders and between humans and animals or between humans and a rock. The dehumanization process is deepening.

He finds that he cannot read and write to communicate till he is six or seven years old, with barely enough storage of Chinese characters laden with pictorial images, memorized through repetition in his analytical hemisphere of the brain. He is forever crippled in coming up with new abstract ideas.

As he goes further in his study of his ancestors’ leftovers/feces, he finds that he is strictly forbidden from creating any new Chinese character by himself. All 50,000 Chinese characters are all he can copy and use in his understanding of his world of reality, though only about 5,000 in normal usage. By definition, all human knowledge on earth has stopped within the confinement of these 50,000 some Chinese characters. He can only try to manipulate, combine the existing characters to describe what he sees, not to invent new concepts. Thus the primary function of Chinese language is to describe, not to prescribe, is to inherit, not to expand, is to please, not to pursue, is to control, not to discover, is to possess, not to enjoy. the alienation is thus thorough and complete – the tool has become the master to be served with total devotion of chinese human lives. The creators of the language have become the slaves of the same language.

With the rigid and stagnant Chinese language in place and in charge, humans are not here to create; they are only here to procreate. Humans are not individuals with indivisible integrity, dignity and uniqueness; humans are only an indistinguishable blob of flesh and blood of fleeting images, banded together by a tiny rectangle box to experience excruciating pain and suffering, much like a contortionist. Conclusion: The Chinese language is an inhuman and inhumane language which only facilitates a perverse dehumanization process among the Chinese masses/population.

In sharp contrast, English, as a multi-syllable, alphabetic language, takes the premise that humans are free and unique beings. Language is their tool to serve their lives’ purpose, not their master to dominate and control their existence. With English language, children as early as three years old can read and write and communicate effectively with their peers. The abstract, alphabetic symbols of the language – the letters can be easily and freely assembled and dissembled and resembled to create new words that represent new discoveries and new concepts. They are designed to be abstract to input information into human brain’s abstract hemisphere. and the meaning of the word and compositions, not calligraphy, is the most important aspect of learning such a language. With this language, humans are allowed to be humans – free, creative and exploratative. With the way human brain is hardwired, there is no doubt that English language (alphabetic and multi-syllable) is a human and humane language.

Chinese Cultural Tyranny 中国传统专制文化的暴虐

From the moment a spark of consciousness starts to flicker, a Chinese youth witnesses at first hand, how humans treat each other and how he is treated by these humans around him. Another dimension of Chinese dehumanization process is taking place in his perception of reality – a cultural tyranny starts to dominate his life.

When the infant starts to observe his surroundings and tries to make sense out of them, the first thing that enters his mind is the fearsome hierarchy everyone carefully follows and obeys. In this invisible hierarchy, everyone’s identity is predetermined by his birth and gender. He discovers that one cannot open his mouth unless he does so according to the echelon he occupies in this hierarchy. He has to find out how old he is, how much money he makes, what connections his family has in relations with this classification of superiority and inferiority. He has to know his gender stratification, male as always being on top of female. He has to know every title and name in the generation differentiation and address his peers by proper titles and names. He has to know exactly all of these before he can open his mouth.

He is conditioned to know that the highest echelon in the hierarchy is the ubiquitous officialdom in the government, and the highest judicial judge in morals and all affairs affecting him is the highest official in this government – the emperor, chairman, president. He now knows that the God in his life is China itself – a nation with a border, a population with the same racial and ethnic features, a way to behave and think – never disturbing the existing order. China is the combination of all the desirable values in his life. He will be dedicating his entire life to this invisible God.

As he continues to grow up and further immerses himself in the Chinese literature, cultural habits and order of things, he finds that he himself as a person gradually dissolved and disappeared in the cultural soup everyone is stirring to cook into a shapeless entity. Everyone starts to behave in the same manner according to this invisible hierarchy, and no one is distinct and unique by himself. For the first time, he tastes the fearsome power of his cultural environment. That faceless everyone is called Big Family which he is obligated to preserve and please. Everyone seems to want to please everyone else and no one however, wants to initiate anything. Passivity is the order of the day and fate is everyone’s master. Learning to patiently live with desperation and helplessness is a must if he wants to survive. And it even becomes an art. He starts to cheat, lie, manipulate, intimidate, pretend… Anything he does is alright so long as he is to preserve and please the big family. Saving face is the biggest concern for everyone, from top down. The Big Family and the government that represents it has become his overlord and his entire individual worth is to be judged by only it.

He practices hard to write beautiful calligraphy, for he knows without the beautiful and unobtrusive appearance, everything else is meaningless. One will have hard time climbing the social ladder if one’s calligraphy is no good. The more he self-effacing his own being, the more likely he will climb high. He learns to entertain himself by practicing Chinese violin, but finds that the bow is stuck between the strings and he can only play one string at a time. The music that comes out of the instrument always bears a sad, lonely, helpless tone he can never escape. He picks a brush to paint a picture, but finds that only water color is available. The painting comes out will always be smeared and blurred. The human image that comes out of the water color has no spirit, no deep feelings, no facial expressions, and no passion (not to mention there is no shades and no one know where the light comes from). Even this dubious representation of humans on paper cannot last long. The water color always fades over time. A blurred image of reality for others to guess and feel is the standard of art.

He is frustrated, trying to find and etch a permanent mark for himself in the history of China. He starts to read the Chinese classic literatures, for in there he can find all kinds of intrigues, plots, manipulation of emotions, pretentious grace.., widely applied in the chinese officialdom. He attends school to memorize and mimic all the tactics and tricks to use, abuse and manipulate others humans so he can climb over their corpses to advance in this hierarchy. He learns how to mesmerize his victims by pretending to be their savior, making them believe they are all victims of others. Like a king cobra, he wants to desensitize and distract his prey by letting them focus on his beautiful and symmetrical markings, the carefully planned, mesmerizing movements, the ingenious camouflage, and the speedy and powerful strikes. He does not want others to know his nature. He is doing everything to hide it. He has learned all these through the books he has read and observation he has made and he is well versed in all of them. None of the education process has focused on the nature, the essence, and the substance of things and phenomena. No moral judgment has ever been rendered. So he is not about to start to attract others’ attention on his deadliness and his poisonous-ness. He has become the master of all his ancestors’ teachings. His only goal: to acquire power as much as he can. The more power he has, the more he is close to the omnipotent and arbitrary head of the big family, and the more he approaches God/being God.

However, he is very unhappy and insecure, for every step up he climbs, he is losing something - something he could not describe and may never recover. But he somehow senses that something is essential for his fulfillment and happiness. He becomes more and more drained and emptied, but the urge to climb even higher is so great that he cannot stop. It is just like, no, it is exactly like a narcotic addiction. The more you have, the more you want to have, even knowing it is killing your organs, killing your humanity. He now is in the deep grip of a powerful, enticing presence he can never escape without help from outside/divine forces.

But the outside help never comes. All the cultural narcotic addicts never admit they are addicts. He is no exception. His mental health starts to deteriorate. He can not distinguish right from wrong, illusions from reality, truth from falsehood, what is good for him from what is harmful…. Yet he continues the path of climbing toward that illusive peak in the officialdom, knocking down adversaries ruthlessly with no mercy. He never feels safe, for everyone else is doing just the same. He is exhausted but he dares not to stop or relax. Momentary reflection of himself scares the hell out of him, for he does not have guts to admit how deep and how far he has embarked on this road of self-destruction. And he knows it is all his making. and relentlessly, the atrocious/miserable/meaningless end is coming.

One day, a more ruthless and poisonous adversary knocks him off the ladder of officialdom. He falls and ready to give up and die. Before he dies, he curses the enemy; he curses back luck; he curses fate; he curses all others. He even curses the system for failing him, not knowing or admitting he is exactly the essential part of it, the foundation of it. His only lesson from all this is: (and he will tell all his children about it) next time, if there is ever going to be one, I will be more ruthless, poisonous and deadly. In the process of victimizing each other, everyone becomes inescapably victimized. The cycle of men-eating-men is thus completed.

Such is a soulless life’s story. Such is a loveless life. Such is a joyless existence. Such is a zombie’s journey. Such is a definition of evil and corruption. Such is the portrait of a Chinese cultural slave - a Eunuslawhore (eunuch, slave, prostitute).

Contrast distinctly from this cycle of dehumanization, Christian ethics stresses exactly the opposite of this men-eating. It preaches that every individual human being is an entirely unique universe, a beginning and end in himself. He is not to be used, abused and abandoned as some used-up tools by others, no matter how many they are in quantity. In short, he is not to be a mean to an end, but an end in itself. Because of such an inalienable and inseparable nature of the entity, he is endowed by god to have rights and freedom; therefore, he has the possibility to be happy and joyful. No one, no matter how powerful he is as in the case of a government, should be morally justified to define such a being. He is indeed a sacred creation and only god can design him and make possible for him to discover that sacred design. Bias, prejudice, power for the sake of control and self-degradation are detested in such an ethics and culture. Dignity and respect are coined to depict such a being as unique and irreplaceable. Nothing can be ever justified without his own individual consent, for only he knows his own values and worth. Group and government oppression is viewed as the embodiment of evil. Servitude and slavery is as insidiously detrimental to human mental and spiritual health as viruses and narcotic addiction. Equality among humans is a natural extension in the very fact that each and every one of individuals must ultimately face god and himself, not others and governments. Conscience and spiritual integrity is established in such a cultural environment. Self-direction rather than others-direction becomes the orientation of such moral being. Creativity and productivity, Not robbing, begging, cheating and stealing, flows like fountainhead, nourishing a new generation of such free beings. Values are constantly produced and nothingness inevitably sneered and discarded.

Such is a human ethics. Such is a human culture. Such will be the humanity's future.

Tyranny of Chinese Political Institutions 中国古今政体的暴虐

When a crippled Chinese adult, mentally and spiritually ill-equipped, enters into the political arena characterized by the omnipresent Chinese officialdom, he painfully discovers that he is further trapped and demeaned by the very institutions his ancestors left to control him. He is viewed as nothing more than a cog on an enormous grinder aimed to mix truth with falsehood, right with wrong, black with white, existence with nothingness. Every ounce of everyone’s individual energy is absorbed and usurped to contribute to the speed of the spinning machine. In the cultural soup it produces, nothing is distinct and unique and nothing can be used as values, particles and concrete foundation to build anything. The only function of such a political machine is to drown everyone with this toxic cultural soup and make him a part of its ingredient to kill still many others.

Fostered and boosted by the linguistic tyranny and cultural tyranny, the political machine his ancestors created and left for him is a ferocious and insatiable beast of destruction.

As his maturing consciousness starts to question his own being in his political surroundings, he finds that no one is in charge and henceforth no one is able to change this political environment. Everyone is only operating in it, much like everyone is using the same Chinese characters to write. No one is able to create anything in this political environment, much like no one is able or supposed to create any Chinese character by himself. He is trapped. He further finds that in this political culture, government precedes people. Government is viewed to have existed even before humans appear on earth. Government authority comes from the mysterious “heaven” and it has nothing to do with human beings. So the emperors have all been called “sons of heaven” and everyone who dares to question this order and authority is doomed to “hell” and eternal ostracism.

Thus, the government has always been viewed as parents, and the masses under it have always been viewed as some infantile children in need of care. Government officials are endowed with titles such as “parental officials” and the people “children people”. A person is born not free, but underneath this parental government and the power it wields. Any limited freedom is freedom in a cage, and freedom to obey and conform, for he is reared and raised by the government and the emperors. He has been taught that when the big river has water, the small creeks will flow. Even God in heaven is with a title “jade emperor”. It is the emperor that gives people their clothes and food. It is the nation and government that give people their livelihood and meaning of life.

He has read from all the literature that his ancestors have left that all heroes in Chinese history are “nation loving” heroes. All immortals he ever worships are ancestral officials in the emperors’ court. Everything that has any values in China is tied with officialdom. Government and officialdom is not only he depends on for his livelihood, but he depends on for his meaning of life. All the educational institutions have one aim – to produce “nation loving” and “emperor loving” officials in the echelon of governmental hierarchy. The higher he climbs in the official ladder, the more power he acquires and hence the more meaning in life he has. Thus, he stops/kills all his other interests and endeavors and focuses only on one thing – joining officialdom to climb the ladder.

In the process of climbing the ladder, he learns further from his ancestors and the knowledge they have left via those rectangle boxes written in those thread-bond books all the official tricks, plots, deceits, maneuvers, manipulations. He is well versed in the spirit all these books and the ultimate message they espouse – “the end always justify the means”. So long as he is for others and for the helpless masses, all his excessive tactics and murderous methods are thoroughly justified. His only slogans in his heart are “loyal to the emperors, loyal to the nation/party-dynasty, loyal to the ancestors and all the language, institutions, culture they have left to him.”

He has learned that the most effective method of controlling the masses with their infantile and meaningless existence is to hold their loved ones, their family, and anything including their own profession they love, hostage. If one offends the order of the court, the entire family suffers, the generations related to the person in anyway suffers. No one is responsible for himself anyway, so everyone else around him must be responsible. Here is the most effective weapon in his arsenal, among others like confusion, fatalism, superstition, jealousy, denial, blindness to truth… Though he himself is subjected to the same control mechanism, he is nonetheless enthusiastically enforcing the order using these means, for the illusion is the higher one climbs, the freer one becomes.

Not only family is used to be the hostage in this scheme of things, family is used as the very control mechanism to subdue everyone in it. Family has become the very basic unit of the government, to serve the government. The very word “nation” (Guo, Jia 国家) in Chinese is simply composed with two characters – nation and family. The saint of all Chinese – Confucius has long deemed the Chinese moral order to be inviolable – “emperor to subordinates, father to sons”. The bigger the government, the better, and since family has become the basic unit of the government, the entire society does not only belong to the government, it is indeed the government itself. Separation of government and society has never existed in China. Any political order in China is only the extension of personal order of the individual and his identity. An ingenious design it is indeed, by the ancestral saint-Confucius.

In the later years of China's modern history, Mao only further inherited/enhanced this very Chinese tradition of building the entire China into a giant prison, in which everyone can be potential a spy to report on others to the authority, particular within the family. So why build prisons to hold those unruly scoundrels like in the USSR under Stalin? Instead, the chinese under mao have followed our ancestors under emperors and confucius: They make the entire society governmental, and make the entire population prisoners of their own family, or their own relations with others. Yes indeed this is exactly what has happened during the notorious cultural revolution. The poison has seeped through every pore of the society and the corruption via total surrender by the individuals is thorough and complete.

America represents the exact opposite of the Chinese experience: It is based on individual freedom with a solid foundation in Christian faith; therefore each and every individual is fully aware of his or her responsibility to his own conscience and action. Its political institutions are established on the premise of human fallibility and subsequent potential abuse by government and majority. Separation of power, checks and balances within the political power structure, a constitutional base to limit government and guaranty individual rights, federalism to ensure a bottom-up direction from individual sovereignty to local autonomy to limited federal government.., all are the healthy and necessary institutions aimed at expanding individual freedom. Government is contracted to serve people’s purposes, not the other way around – people are subdued to serve the government. Legitimacy, transparency and openness are understood to be the concern of all the individual citizens in their eternal vigilance to guard their liberty and rights against tyranny. American political institutions are human institutions for human interests, freedom and happiness.

Conclusion 结论

Over two thousand years ago on this land that humans inhabited, a divergence of humanity began to emerge. In the East over the vast land of Asia, a process of dehumanization started with the unification by an emperor with his swords, bloodshed, and oppressive force over the population on his domain. Through the intrinsic defects of its own language, the facilitation of eunuch official intellectuals, and the state power, human beings had become the subjects and slaves of their own creation. They have been terrorized by the very alienation they created ever since and become deformed humans with twisted mind-set. A stagnant and vicious circular course of history has been the order even today.

About the same period over on the other side of the planet, a quiet and powerful revolution to recognize and confirm humanity also began to take shape, championed not by someone with swords, but by a mild-mannered man dressed in rags who never held any official position. A new kind of values was being preached upon the population and into the very soul of humans – truth, liberty, equality, individuality, fraternity, tolerance, creativity… Through the sparks he has ignited, a torch has been lit to light up the course of human history. History would never be a circle to trap humans with their corpses and misery. History started to advance toward life, freedom and joy. Humans are no longer the slaves of their own creations. They have become their own masters over their own language, their own culture and their own political institutions. A liberation of the human souls has enables them to advance through darkness toward better and better future. America is the epitome of this very advancement.

In the West, human beings continue to advance along the line of liberty for humanity. in the East, human beings continue to be trapped by the tyranny of their own culture and government. They are nothing but slaves of their own cultural conditioning and tools of the despotic state they have created and passively obeyed. The gap is gigantic.

In view and analysis of what has impeded Chinese society from entering modern history and join the community of free nations, I am confident that these three mountains – the three tyrannies that have oppressed the Chinese people without them knowing the nature of the tyrannies, must be removed before any healthy human institutions can be developed. The dehumanization process via these three tyrannies must be stopped and destroyed. Human beings must be returned to their original form intended by their creator – free, full of life, joyful and creative, the masters of their own environment, their own language, their own culture, their own political institutions, their own fate, their own future. The thorough and complete alienation of individual human beings to their creations must be reversed. The vicious dynastic cycles must be reviled, condemned and eliminated. a society of individual human beings, by individual human beings, for individual human beings must be finally realized. China must join the post-historical America by emulating its examples to release the tremendous energy of human creativity and productivity of its own citizens. Let’s start to remove the three mountains and the tyranny they have imposed on the Chinese people for thousands of years. Let's start this process from ourselves as free and responsible individuals.

Happy New Year, China?
新一年的中国面临危机

Three questions businesses will be asking in 2012..
生意人应该问的三个问题

By JOSEPH STERNBERG (Wall Street Journal)

At the start of 2011, China's growth rate was above 9%. Beijing had scored a triumph only a few months earlier, at the November 2010 Seoul G-20 summit, in rebuffing Washington's pleas for more action on global rebalancing and thereby showing that China was an economic force to be reckoned with. As the U.S. slouched and the euro zone sank further into what now appears to be an interminable crisis, many businesses assumed China would be a good fallback.

At the end of 2011, the world looks rather different. Now the main speculation concerns whether China's landing will be hard or soft. Businesses are newly wary; capital is starting to flow out. This turned out to be a year in which investors and managers started asking some new questions about China. Here are three that will be on a lot of minds in 2012:

• Will China ever transition to domestic consumption?

Often presented as a matter of macroeconomic rebalancing, this one has micro implications, too. When foreigners say they "want China to consume more," they quietly add "of our products" at the end of the sentence. So far, foreign producers of consumer goods and heavy equipment have enjoyed some success. Chinese are buying more shampoo, batteries, computers and tractors as they grow more prosperous, and some of those products are foreign-made.

But consumption as a proportion of the economy still falls far short of where it ought to be, and consumer goods will go only part way to making up the difference. The real consumption challenge will be services, which also happens to be an area where countries such as the U.S. have a strong comparative advantage and could be exporting much more to China. Here Beijing remains stubbornly closed, not least for political reasons—services can be dangerous to autocrats for the interpersonal connections they foster, as service-provider Google discovered in 2010.

As an added twist, during 2011 Beijing transformed this from a simple economic matter into a political credibility test. The government promised in its new Five-Year Plan to encourage more domestic consumption. Those who think this transition will happen argue that if Beijing says it will happen, Beijing will find some way to make sure it does. But will that hold true for consumption? While an investment-led growth model provides easy opportunities to pull levers (as long as the investment is done by a relatively discrete set of state-connected companies), true domestic consumption puts you at the mercy of 1.4 billion consumers.

• How "real" are Chinese companies?

This year has seen many Western investors become newly alert to fraud risks at Chinese companies listed in Canada, the U.S. or Europe. What started around this time last year as a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission fulmination against an obscure bit of financial engineering—the reverse takeover—has grown into a spate of delistings, shareholder lawsuits and regulatory investigations amid auditor resignations, charges of accounting irregularities, and a short-selling frenzy.

This is a microeconomic story with macro implications. Some of these companies may be outright frauds. But for many others, a plausible theory is that they are legitimate companies that have dressed themselves up as "frauds" to navigate China's stifling regulatory environment. Such is a charitable interpretation of the most famous blow-up to date, Toronto-listed Sino-Forest, whose complex corporate structure may well be designed chiefly to secure its forest assets in China absent normal property-rights protections.

Ponder for a moment what this state of affairs means for China. Why are its most entrepreneurial private-sector companies listing overseas at all? Why can't they access sufficient capital at home? And what does it mean for China's economic development that these companies find it so difficult to operate completely above-board? Can a sustainable economy be built on the back of a regulatory system that encourages—perhaps forces—firms to fudge their books?

• What about Indonesia?

One surprising theme for 2011 has been growing investor interest in Indonesia. No wonder, given 6% growth rates and a large potential consumer base coming online as the economy picks up pace. Suddenly investors seem less deterred than they used to be by Jakarta's infamous traffic jams and endemic corruption.

The "Indonesia story" is part of a broader trend, as investors have rediscovered all the non-China parts of Asia. Thailand is set to throw out a welcome mat for foreign investors as it tries to recover from devastating flooding. Low-end manufacturers are heading to Cambodia.

This year's anticorruption crusade in India evidences rising popular discontent with government, which could one day provide an impetus for more competitive economic policies. Foreign businesses are anxiously waiting the first opportunity to head to India.

Even staid old Japan may soon be up for a rethink if participation in a Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal (a last-ditch effort by Tokyo to revive its stagnant economy) opens new opportunities for foreigners. All of which means that China can no longer count on being the only appealing prospect on the horizon.

***

None of these questions necessarily presages a Chinese collapse in 2012. But they do suggest businesses and investors will be looking at China with new, more critical eyes in the new year. The most important question of all: How well will China stand up under that scrutiny?

共产的邪恶 The Evil of Communism

陈凯博客： www.kaichenblog.blogspot.com

陈凯一语： Kai Chen's Words:

普瑞格尔（Dennis Prager）的这篇文章分析了为什么今天在世界上人们仍不认知共产的邪恶，甚至对共产邪念抱有幻梦。我希望人们能在这篇文章中对邪恶的力量与人们的道德混乱有清晰与足够的认识。

Dennis Prager's article analyzes why today people in the world, especially those of left-leaning in the West, still have illusions about communism and still cannot come to term with the evil of communism. I only hope people read this article and start thinking deeply about this crucial issue of our time.

Why Doesn't Communism Have as Bad a Name as Nazism?
共产与纳粹的比较

By: Dennis Prager
FrontPageMagazine.com | Tuesday, March 24, 2009

Why is it that when people want to describe particularly evil individuals or regimes, they use the terms "Nazi" or "Fascist" but almost never "Communist?"

Given the amount the human suffering Communists have caused - 70 million killed in China, 20-30 million in the former Soviet Union, and almost one-third of all Cambodians; the decimation of Tibetan and Chinese culture; totalitarian enslavement of North Koreans, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Russians; a generation deprived of human rights in Cuba; and much more -- why is "Communist" so much less a term of revulsion than "Nazi?"

There are Mao Restaurants in major cities in the Western world. Can one imagine Hitler Restaurants? Che Guevara T-shirts are ubiquitous, yet there are no Heinrich Himmler T-shirts.

This question is of vital significance. First, without moral clarity, humanity has little chance of avoiding a dark future. Second, the reasons for this moral imbalance tell us a great deal about ourselves today.

Here, then, are seven reasons.

1.Communists murdered their own people; the Nazis murdered others.

Under Mao about 70 million people died - nearly all in peacetime! - virtually all of them Chinese. Likewise, the approximately 30 million people that Stalin had killed were nearly all Russians, and those who were not Russian, Ukrainians for example, were members of other Soviet nationalities. The Nazis, on the other hand, killed very few fellow Germans. Their victims were Jews, Slavs, and members of other "non-Aryan" and "inferior" groups. "World opinion" - that vapid amoral concept - deems the murder of members of one's group far less noteworthy than the murder of outsiders. That is one reason why blacks killing millions of fellow blacks in the Congo right now elicits no attention from "world opinion." But if an Israeli soldier is charged with having killed a Gaza woman and two children, it makes the front page of world newspapers.

2.Communism is based on lovely sounding theories; Nazism is based on heinous sounding theories.

Intellectuals, among whom are the people who write history, are seduced by words -- so much so that deeds are deemed considerably less significant. Communism's words are far more intellectually and morally appealing than the moronic and vile racism of Nazism. The monstrous evils of communists have not been focused on nearly as much as the monstrous deeds of the Nazis. The former have been regularly dismissed as perversions of a beautiful doctrine (though Christians who committed evil in the name of Christianity are never regarded by these same people as having perverted a beautiful doctrine), whereas Nazi atrocities have been perceived (correctly) as the logical and inevitable results of Nazi ideology. This seduction by words while ignoring deeds has been a major factor in the ongoing appeal of the left to intellectuals. How else explain the appeal of a Che Guevara or Fidel Castro to so many left-wing intellectuals, other than that they care more about beautiful words than about vile deeds?

3.Germans have thoroughly exposed the evils of Nazism, have taken responsibility for them, and attempted to atone for them. Russians have not done anything similar regarding Lenin's or Stalin's horrors.

Indeed, an ex-KGB man runs Russia, Lenin is still widely revered, and, in the words of University of London Russian historian Donald Rayfield, "people still deny by assertion or implication, Stalin's holocaust." Nor has China in any way exposed the greatest mass murderer and enslaver of them all, Mao Zedong. Mao remains revered in China. Until Russia and China acknowledge the evil their states have done under communism, communism's evils will remain less acknowledged by the world than the evils of the German state under Hitler.

4.Communism won, Nazism lost. And the winners write history.

5.Nothing matches the Holocaust.

The rounding up of virtually every Jewish man, woman, child, and baby on the European continent and sending them to die is unprecedented and unparalleled. The communists killed far more people than the Nazis did but never matched the Holocaust in the systemization of murder. The uniqueness of the Holocaust and the enormous attention paid to it since then has helped ensure that Nazism has a worse name than communism.

6.There is, simply put, widespread ignorance of communist atrocities compared to those of the Nazis.

Whereas, both right and left loathe Nazism and teach its evil history, the left dominates the teaching profession, and therefore almost no one teaches communist atrocities. As much as intellectuals on the left may argue that they loathe Stalin or the North Korean regime, few on the left loathe communism. As the French put it, "pas d'enemis a la gauche," which in English means "no enemies on the left." This is certainly true of Chinese, Vietnamese, and Cuban communism. Check your local university's courses and see how many classes are given on communist totalitarianism or mass murder compared to the number of classes about Nazism's immoral record.

7.Finally, in the view of the left, the last "good war" America fought was World War II, the war against German and Japanese fascism.

The left does not regard America's wars against communist regimes as good wars. The war against Vietnamese communism is regarded as immoral and the war against Korean (and Chinese) communism is simply ignored.

Until the left and all the institutions influenced by the left acknowledge how evil communism has been, we will continue to live in a morally confused world. Conversely, the day the left does come to grips with communism's legacy of human destruction, it will be a very positive sign that the world's moral compass has begun to correct itself.

“自由人“对抗“中国人”序列
“Free Beings” vs. “Chinese”

By Kai Chen 陈凯 (Written 3/15/2011, Reprint 7/29/2011)
www.kaichenblog.blogspot.com

从秦始皇到毛泽东，“中国人”崇魔、尊鬼、信邪的病态扭曲导致了一个无限恶性循环的“朝代圈”。这个邪恶虚无的“朝代圈”是由无信仰、无自由、无尊严、无正义感的人们自编、自进、自欺、自逃而建立的。同时这个邪恶虚无的“朝代圈”又反过来将一代又一代的“中国人”奴役扭曲为“为社、为皇、为群、为族、为大家”的无灵自阉的“宦奴娼”。 “默默的绝望”是所有以虚为荣、以欺为尚、以奴为耀的“中国人”的必然心态。

大多“中国人”都认为人是环境、文化、祖宗、教育、政府的造物，而不是上苍的创造，不是有自由意志的存在。他们看不到西方/美国的“人”是“上苍之下，上苍所创”的真实主动的存在，而“中国人”则是“皇政之下”的“祖先圣人”所灌养出来的虚无被动的“奴”，是一个“被权利用”的工具与可有可无的数字。这就是为什么那些做着“人上人”的“中国梦”的人们到头来总会发现他们几千年来的“奴主梦”不过是一个人吃人的噩梦罢了。

许多我过去的朋友同仁也都认为“稳定”、“和谐”、“繁荣”、“富强”是“中国特色”基于族群观念的价值，“不同于”西方/美国的基于个体的普世永恒的人的价值 – 真实、正义、自由、尊严。由此他们都认为秦始皇、毛泽东的遗产与形象是一定要褒扬与保护的，是不能没贬辍与销毁的。 “没有秦、毛，中国就会大乱的。” 他们对真实个体价值的恐惧与对未来未知的逃避是他们自身奴役感、无奈感与绝望感的真实来源。我实想象不出如果今天意大利的人们仍旧将凯撒作为楷模去效仿，或德国的人们仍旧将希特勒作为偶像去崇拜，或俄国的人们仍旧将斯大林作为榜样去追求，世界会是个什么样子。

“崇魔拜权”所导致的一时稳定与强权只能带来噩梦一般的灾难性后果：纳粹德国、军国日本、共产苏俄都是这种“崇魔文化”所造成的噩梦。中国的“共奴儒粹”的党朝将毛泽东的魔像顶礼膜拜作为它的强权合法的基点，其必然的噩梦般结局也是可以预见的。 “崇魔”的人们是“无灵毁灵”的人们。 “中国人”今天的不识真假，不辨是非，不论正邪，不讲对错就是这些无灵自阉的“宦奴娼”的真实写照。在电影“魔戒”(Lord of the Ring) 中，西方/美国的价值文化是要销毁那个象征强权的魔戒，并杜绝它在人们中的邪恶影响与作用。而“中国人”却一味迷恋、追求去拥有那个象征强权的魔戒，并将曾经拥有那魔戒的魔鬼们如秦始皇与毛泽东作为偶像、伪神去崇拜。中国专制文化（腐儒毛共）的反价值就此暴露无遗。

毛像林立、毛钞泛滥、毛语横行、毛尸咒人的今日中国是一个噩梦末日即将到来的垂死党朝。这犹如一个胭脂遍体的染着艾滋病与梅毒的妓女妄图要用与她上床的人们的众多来证实自身的价值，或一个金粉遍体的泥菩萨试图用跪拜人们的众多来证实它的泥身是真金一样。真假、是非、正邪、好坏是绝不能用人数多少、强权财富、武力威吓、谎言欺骗而确定的。有毛像处定无人灵。有共产处定无正义。有腐儒处定无尊严。有强权处定无是非。有专制处定无自由。有“中国人”处定无进步与真实。

毛像不除，人灵焉复！

China's Wukan Seige:
中国广东乌坎村的不寻常抗争
Could Beijing Resort to Force with Escalating Social Unrest?

Wukan villagers with protest banners demanding justice from Beijing for the land cheated out of them (Source: The Telegraph)

陈凯博客： www.kaichenblog.blogspot.com

http://www.econmatters.com/2011/12/chinas-wukan-protest-could-beijing.html

China Director Jennifer Richmond discusses the recent protests in Wukan, Guangdong province, and the characteristics that set them apart from previous incidents of social unrest in China. (Watch CNN news video below covering Wukan protests added by EconMatters)

After months of protests in the village of Wukan in Guangdong province, which started on Sept. 21, the situation escalated this weekend when one of the protest leaders died in custody. Authorities have blockaded the village in an attempt to control the situation while a solution is worked out. As China’s economy slows dissatisfaction grows proportionately and we expect even more incidents in the future.

Reports on Dec. 14 indicate the village cadres — many of whom left Wukan in November as the protests continued and are now suspected of violating discipline —are being held by the Lufeng City Commission.

A common tactic in these protests is to seek provincial or central government intervention. The slow reaction to the protests only lead to an escalation, which is now trying to be redressed with both a show of force and some sort of conciliation to villager demands.

The protests in Wukan began months ago when the Fengtian Livestock company and Country Garden collaborated to use disputed land for development. The villagers claimed the land for their agricultural uses.

This is just one of many protests involving land grabs that have been heightened over the past few years as a result of China’s real estate boom and urbanization, which local governments rely on to boost their incomes.

So why is this one any different? There are several things about this protest that have caught our attention.

First, the duration. The villagers have maintained these protests for over several months. Usually these protests die down when local officials are able to buy off a handful of people or strike some sort of negotiation.

Second, the numbers. Although the protesters themselves only amount to a thousand or so citizens, the entire village of approximately 20,000 appears united in its stance against the local government.

And third, the response. The protests lead to the retreat of village officials and the cordoning off of the entire village from any ingoing or outgoing traffic. Although we’ve seen this tactic employed at least once before in Zhejiang province, it is not common and therefore notable.

As we’ve always stated before, many of these protests are local and can be contained locally. Ultimately they pose little threat to the central government. However, we’ve noted several incidents, including the recent protests over a factory in Dalian, where the local government has capitulated to citizen demands.

People look to Beijing to intervene against corrupt local officials, and Beijing is often able to shield itself from criticism by setting itself apart from local governments that are most often the targets of social unrest.

As China’s economy slows — and we are witnessing a rapidly slowing economy as Europe’s economic turmoil affects China’s exports — protests increase and put increasing pressure on Beijing to manage local uprisings with dwindling economic resources.

As similar protests occur throughout the country, and if they demonstrate the same level of solidarity as in Wukan, Beijing will be forced to respond and will do so through a mixture of force and incentives.

If Beijing mishandles these protests — and the margin for error increases as the protests expand and become more united — the focus could turn to the central government. Further, if protest tactics are able to increasingly force a favorable response for the citizens, they become emboldened. In the end, Beijing will not hesitate to resort to force, especially if the mandate of the Chinese Communist Party comes into question.

EconMatters Note: Wukan Village reportedly has become self-governed and completely outside of the central government's control after the villagers kicked out the last government official on 12 Dec. This is totally unprecedented since Mao took over the Mainland in 1949.

Wukan is a fishing village of approximately 20,000, and has now been cut off food, electricity, and half of the water supplies. British paper the Telegraph so far was the only foreign media managed to send a reporter into the village and described the Party has lost all control in a situation of open revolt. Any news about Wukan is heavily censored by China's Great Firewall.

The Perversion of China's Sports

2011年又是大陆男女足国奥队惨败的一年，双双没有进入伦敦奥运会，而大陆男足更是早早的告别了巴西世界杯，目前世界排名72位。如何提高大陆足球水准？中共体育总局副局长蔡振华认为，中国足球落后是因为"举国体制以及中华体育精神没有延续"。专家指出，恰恰是举国体制和社会制度造成中国的体育落后。

蔡振华日前对于中国足球的落后谈了自己的看法。他表示，"现在中国的足球水准和亚洲还是有差距，根本的原因还是我们没有彻底职业化。比如原来我们的举国体制以及中华体育精神没有延续，所以才会造成中国足球全面落后。"

一位不愿透露姓名的前中国青少年足球教练认为，中国足球落后是因为"普及不够"。他认为，要想提高足球水准，必须真正普及，让足球走进学校，尽管时间长，但会有好结果。日本和韩国就是因为学校有足球课程。在普及基础之上再特殊培养，从而大幅度提高了水准。

前中国青少年足球教练（要求变声）："没有高度的普及，乃至于中小学没有足球的课程，中国的足球再奥运战略、再投资多少钱，派人到西方国家我看都不足取，都改变不了中国足球落后的面貌。"

原中国国家篮球队队员陈凯认为，中国实行的"举国体制"违反体育自由竞技精神，是对竞技精神的损害。中共是把选手当作为党宣传、拿奖的工具和奴隶，他认为这是不人道的。

陈凯："如果把体育看成是为你们国家、为政治、为制度的合法性而服务的话，这个体育就变成病态体育了。就是说当你提出培养青少年的时候，你的前提是为我服务的，这是不可以的。"

加拿大《国家邮报》的一篇报导说，中国是极权主义"金牌制造工厂"、"运动员的血汗工厂"，一些退役体育明星的悲惨生活也证实了这种说法。

陈凯指出，中国要想整体提高运动竞技水准，必须有自由的社会制度。

陈凯："共产党一定要走开，这个社会一定要成为自由人的社会，也就是说，每个人的自由意志受到尊重，我喜欢在这个队里打，我可以和这个队里管理签合同。我在这里不行的话，我可以离开这个队。当你形成一个队打球的时候，这个队是非常有战斗力的一个队，因为所有人是愿意一块打球的。"

另外，蔡振华还对中国足坛出现的假球、赌球现象，发表了看法。

而获得04年"中超先生"荣誉的阿尔贝茨在采访中坦言，俱乐部中有人存在打假球的嫌疑，这也是他最终离开中国足球队的原因。

陈凯："裁判处在一种非常专制的等级文化心态的时候，他脑子里想的并不是如何很公正的对待自己的职业，他想的是如何讨好上边。当你这样思考的时候，其实没有公平竞争的吹哨了，不可能公平的裁判了。"

而李承鹏的《中国足球内幕》一书，揭示了中国假球、赌球、黑球以及足坛的重重黑幕！书评指出，这不仅局限在中国足球行业，也是当今中国大陆社会的缩影。

许多中国人常常将“民族”与“民族性”（People Race--一个极为病态与怪诞的伪概念）挂在嘴边，使人觉得他们是在用一个根本不能定义的伪词汇为某个他们每一个人都想逃脱而又无法逃脱的东西喷雾水。说到底，“中国人”似乎永远都在渴望着用群体来逃避个体，用“民族性”来逃避“人性”（Human Nature）中的原弊（Sin）与人性中的，在上苍的道德指引下的，发掘的潜力与人的伟大的可能（Possibilities and Potentials）。

人（Human）不可能成为神（God）。人不可能摆脱自身的原弊（Sin）与“不完美”（Fallibility）。因此人也绝不应该去寻找/试图建立什么完美社会，或仰望/期待什么完美的人间“救星”（Human Agencies）去解决人间的问题。基督精神对人性的真实解义与西方的自由理念基此而产生的社会科学造成了今天我们所见的自由社会（绝不完美但永远向前并挑战未知的“创造性”社会）。道德的绝对（好与坏、真与假，是与非，对与错，正义与邪恶的区分）是指引这些自由社会的基点与指南。 “分权”，“司法独立”，“新闻、言论、宗教信仰、结社集会等等自由/权利”就逻辑地与自然地成为自由社会的，抑制人性中的“原弊”的必要手段与安排。人性中的对“真实、正义、自由、尊严”的渴望与追求也就因此得到褒扬与扩展。一个不断向前、不断创新、不断摈弃人的“鬼性与奴性”的、不断接近人的“伟大的潜力”的、充满活力的但“绝不可能完美的”道德/自由社会就此形成。爱、希望与进步便由于这种有真实信仰的“自由人”对人性中原弊的承认与对人性的真实面对成为现实（Reality）。

“人性”中有基于人的原弊（Sin）的“鬼性”与“奴性”，也有基于“尊崇上苍”的“神性”与“人的伟大（Greatness）”。不承认人的“原弊”而产生的“人可以成为神”的病态幻觉导致了中国的人们对“完美的专制”的憧憬与对“人间上帝/救星”的渴望与期待。每一个杀人无数的中国的王朝就是这种对“完美的专制/人间天堂”的病态向往而产生的。 “跪人”而“不跪神”就是这些拒绝人性的“不完美”与拒绝真实的信仰的中国的人们外在的行为规范。基督精神中的“只跪神”而“绝不跪人”的道德准则是与中国的人们的病态言行相反的道德/自由社会的基点。

只有承认人的“原弊”才有可能承认人有“进步”与“实现自身伟大”的可能。（幻觉能成神的人也逻辑地表明他们可以消灭“原弊”的方式去拒绝个体自由与选择。因此否认与消灭人的“原弊”也就必然否认与消灭了“人可以自由与不断进步”的可能。 “能成神”的“中国人”就此造成了一个又一个的“僵死不前”的“自命为人间天堂”的专制王朝。窒息人性的“尿盆、粪坑、酱缸文化”就此成为“中国人”最习惯的常态。中国的人们在“温暖发酵”的儒家“中庸”的粪坑中成为了“他人粪便中”的蛆虫，成为了“既吃不好/吃不饱也饿不死”的奴才。说到底“屎虼螂文化”就是否认“人的原弊”与“人的伟大”的“人能成神”（通过“枪杆子/暴力与修身养性/向善”）的畸形心态的鲜明写照。

为了逃避每一个个体的原弊、每一个个体伟大的可能与每一个个体选择的责任与必须承担的后果，“中国人”就不遗余力地寻找/制造逃避真实“人性”的各种理念与语言词汇。从儒学孔教到马列主义，从秦始皇到毛泽东，从传统专制奴役到社会主义/共产主义的暴政，从“拥共崇毛”的狂热到迷恋“繁荣富强“的当代民族主义，“中国人”在“尿盆”，“粪坑”与让人绝望的“朝代泥潭”中滚动杀戮了几千年。蛔虫、蛆虫、屎虼螂就是这“永恒杀戮”所必然衍生的产物与怪胎。 “人性”中的原弊与人的伟大的可能被“中国人”抛到九霄云外。 “民族”与“民族性”（蛔虫性、蛆虫性、屎虼螂性）成了人们的口头禅。个体的生命、自由与尊严一次又一次地被泯灭。 “人”再一次在伟大的“民族复兴”中成为了专制奴役牺牲品与工具。人的“鬼性与奴性”再一次得到了认同，扩大与褒扬。又一个崇尚杀戮的“新王朝”正在即将到来的“共后”时代被中国的人们孕育着。只要看一看今天的埃及或伊朗的“革命”（伊斯兰王朝的复兴）与世界上举不胜举的“杀人王朝循环”的例子，你就会懂得今天的中国正在走向何处。

“民族性”、“民族情感”、“民族利益”、“民族大业”、“民族精神”、“民族崛起”等等大量的伪词汇是今天中国的人们逃避“真实人性”的遁词，是“善走捷径”的“中国人”逃避个体自由与选择的病态人的畸形心态写照。请记住：那些高谈“民族”、“民族性”、“民族情结”的人们说轻了是在卖狗皮膏药，说重了是在贩毒与吃人。他们与孔儒，秦皇与毛共一样，都是寄生在他人身上的“吸血鬼”（Vampires）与吃人肉的“活死人”（Zombies）罢了。

我的忠告：离那些常将“民族”与“中华”挂在嘴头上的人远一点。

China was going to save the global economy? Guess again
中国经济濒临崩盘

http://www.worldnewstribune.com/2011/12/05/and-china-was-going-to-save-the-global-economy-guess-again/

Sol W. Sanders

Creeping up on the outer edges of Wall Street soothsayers’ economic crystal ball, until now dominated by American and Euro crises, is growing concern about China.

The inane idea China [and India, which is also in trouble] would somehow rescue the world economy is now, finally, dismissed by the pundits — without apologies. How a largely export-led, mercantilist economy was to save the world with its principle markets in the U.S. and the EU winnowing down was never explained. Continued wishful references to Chinese leadership’s equally improbable promises to boost domestic consumption are also falling away.

There is, in fact, a growing consensus the Chinese economy is spiraling down. One respected Hong Kong economist, Ms. Wang Tao of UBS, is predicting a gross domestic growth [GDP] rate toward 7 percent before year’s end. That’s below the red line 8 percent long considered by the double-domes as the minimum to satisfy jobs for China’s growing population.

Soon we can hope to hear an end to those straight-line projections — so wrong two decades ago in Japan predictions — which take China’s current world No. 2 GDP to soaring heights. Indeed, China is the classic example of inadequacies of GDP as an economic barometer. Even assuming official figures are reliable — which is a far stretch — China’s GDP has inflated with vast over expansion of infrastructure and massive corruption indicating enormous activity but not necessarily a basis for continued stability and growth. [Remember Euroland’s GDP/consumption figures before the fall!] Nor do we have more than a notional figure for huge military outlays.

Granted, some of us who have been predicting a China crash for years, arguing its miraculous transformation was jerrybuilt. But we have always said what would trip the fall, when, and how the Chinese would cope with it, is unpredictable — as so many things in life. Some full-time observers are now turning to the banking structure as chief concern. Whether you look at inadequacies of Communist Party decision makers in their see-saw battle to maintain maximum growth but head off any hint of inflation, a traditional Chinese destroyer of dynasties, the outlook is grim.

Larry Lang, a Hong Kong TV personality and Chinese University professor of finance, recently labeled provincial finances as “China’s many Greeces”. Beijing’s writ — as an old proverb goes — ends no longer at the village gate but increasingly at the provincial capital where regional authorities defy the center, desperate to meet growing resources demands.

Local politicos have wheedled, persuaded, bribed and threatened local government banks into credit far beyond their capacity to repay. Add that to the huge stock of non-performing loans banks give their Party buddies in the huge inefficient government companies and you have what could be the mother of all financial fiascos.

Just as politics does not end at the banks’ doors, the Communist Party is moving into a generational leadership succession year. In theory, the new president and prime minister have been anointed. But there is a lot of shin-kicking with the usual Communist turn to so-called ideological arguments masking personality, regional and purely economic interests.

A kind of neo-Maoism has surfaced. And it could take on new life as economic problems deepen because there has always been a strong Party constituency for preserving Soviet controls, planning and government ownership. Never mind that the fabled Chinese entrepreneurial spirit has taken hold with the partial liberalization of the past two decades. But much of this private sector with its disproportionately higher productivity was exports now hit hard with the downturn in the U.S. and Europe.

This has collapsed thousands of private businesses, particularly in South China’s clothing and gizmo assembly operations, leading to dramatic literal disappearances of owners and managers and growing unemployment. This, in turn, has fed already escalating unrest; Beijing has stopped reporting even the very suspect official figures.

It’s early on, of course, to predict this would develop into the kind of provincial disintegration bringing down virtually every China ruling dynasty through its long history. Still….

Meanwhile, China’s drop in demand for raw materials is already hitting world commodity markets — iron ore, for example, and soon to be coal and soya. That will have its effects on the overseas suppliers from Angola to Brazil to Australia [which has already seen a 10 percent drop in its high-flying dollar of a few weeks ago.]

Children of the Revolution 中共的太子党

陈凯一语： Kai Chen's Words:
“太子党”现象只说明了一个真实：中共就是中国。如果说现在还有人否认中共与中国专制文化/王朝的必然联系，那他不是一个白痴就是一个骗子。

"The Princelings" phenomenon only demonstrates an undeniable truth: China's Communist Party-Dynasty has deep roots in Chinese despotic mindset/tradition. Chinese Party-Dynasty is no question founded on the traditional Chinese despotism. Chinese communist party is China indeed. If now someone still has doubts on this point, then he/she is either a moron or a man-eating monster.

Children of the Revolution
中共党朝的老子与太子

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111904491704576572552793150470.html

China's 'princelings,' the offspring of the communist party elite, are embracing the trappings of wealth and privilege—raising uncomfortable questions for their elders..

By JEREMY PAGE -- Wall Street Journal

One evening early this year, a red Ferrari pulled up at the U.S. ambassador's residence in Beijing, and the son of one of China's top leaders stepped out, dressed in a tuxedo.

(Grandfather, Bo Yibo — Helped lead Mao's forces to victory, only to be purged in the 1966-76 Cultural Revolution. Subsequently rehabilitated.

Son, Bo Guagua — Graduate student at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.

Father, Bo Xilai — Party secretary of Chongqing and Politburo member, likely to rise to the Politburo standing committee in 2012.)

Bo Guagua, 23, was expected. He had a dinner appointment with a daughter of the then-ambassador, Jon Huntsman.

The car, though, was a surprise. The driver's father, Bo Xilai, was in the midst of a controversial campaign to revive the spirit of Mao Zedong through mass renditions of old revolutionary anthems, known as "red singing." He had ordered students and officials to work stints on farms to reconnect with the countryside. His son, meanwhile, was driving a car worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and as red as the Chinese flag, in a country where the average household income last year was about $3,300.

The episode, related by several people familiar with it, is symptomatic of a challenge facing the Chinese Communist Party as it tries to maintain its legitimacy in an increasingly diverse, well-informed and demanding society. The offspring of party leaders, often called "princelings," are becoming more conspicuous, through both their expanding business interests and their evident appetite for luxury, at a time when public anger is rising over reports of official corruption and abuse of power.

A Family Affair

A look at China's leaders, past and present, and their offspring, often known as 'princelings.'

State-controlled media portray China's leaders as living by the austere Communist values they publicly espouse. But as scions of the political aristocracy carve out lucrative roles in business and embrace the trappings of wealth, their increasingly high profile is raising uncomfortable questions for a party that justifies its monopoly on power by pointing to its origins as a movement of workers and peasants.

Their visibility has particular resonance as the country approaches a once-a-decade leadership change next year, when several older princelings are expected to take the Communist Party's top positions. That prospect has led some in Chinese business and political circles to wonder whether the party will be dominated for the next decade by a group of elite families who already control large chunks of the world's second-biggest economy and wield considerable influence in the military.

"There's no ambiguity—the trend has become so clear," said Cheng Li, an expert on Chinese elite politics at the Brookings Institution in Washington. "Princelings were never popular, but now they've become so politically powerful, there's some serious concern about the legitimacy of the 'Red Nobility.' The Chinese public is particularly resentful about the princelings' control of both political power and economic wealth."

The current leadership includes some princelings, but they are counterbalanced by a rival nonhereditary group that includes President Hu Jintao, also the party chief, and Premier Wen Jiabao. Mr. Hu's successor, however, is expected to be Xi Jinping, the current vice president, who is the son of a revolutionary hero and would be the first princeling to take the country's top jobs. Many experts on Chinese politics believe that he has forged an informal alliance with several other princelings who are candidates for promotion.
Among them is the senior Mr. Bo, who is also the son of a revolutionary leader. He often speaks of his close ties to the Xi family, according to two people who regularly meet him. Mr. Xi's daughter is currently an undergraduate at Harvard, where Mr. Bo's son is a graduate student at the Kennedy School of Government.

“Princelings were never popular, but now ... there's some serious concern about the legitimacy of the 'Red Nobility.' ”

Already in the 25-member Politburo, Bo Xilai is a front-runner for promotion to its top decision-making body, the Standing Committee. He didn't respond to a request for comment through his office, and his son didn't respond to requests via email and friends.

The antics of some officials' children have become a hot topic on the Internet in China, especially among users of Twitter-like micro-blogs, which are harder for Web censors to monitor and block because they move so fast. In September, Internet users revealed that the 15-year-old son of a general was one of two young men who crashed a BMW into another car in Beijing and then beat up its occupants, warning onlookers not to call police.

An uproar ensued, and the general's son has now been sent to a police correctional facility for a year, state media report.

Top Chinese leaders aren't supposed to have either inherited wealth or business careers to supplement their modest salaries, thought to be around 140,000 yuan ($22,000) a year for a minister. Their relatives are allowed to conduct business as long as they don't profit from their political connections. In practice, the origins of the families' riches are often impossible to trace.

Last year, Chinese learned via the Internet that the son of a former vice president of the country—and the grandson of a former Red Army commander—had purchased a $32.4 million harbor-front mansion in Australia. He applied for a permit to tear down the century-old mansion and to build a new villa, featuring two swimming pools connected by a waterfall.

Many princelings engage in legitimate business, but there is a widespread perception in China that they have an unfair advantage in an economic system that, despite the country's embrace of capitalism, is still dominated by the state and allows no meaningful public scrutiny of decision making.
The state owns all urban land and strategic industries, as well as banks, which dole out loans overwhelmingly to state-run companies. The big spoils thus go to political insiders who can leverage personal connections and family prestige to secure resources, and then mobilize the same networks to protect them.

The People's Daily, the party mouthpiece, acknowledged the issue last year, with a poll showing that 91% of respondents believed all rich families in China had political backgrounds. A former Chinese auditor general, Li Jinhua, wrote in an online forum that the wealth of officials' family members "is what the public is most dissatisfied about."

One princeling disputes the notion that she and her peers benefit from their "red" backgrounds. "Being from a famous government family doesn't get me cheaper rent or special bank financing or any government contracts," Ye Mingzi, a 32-year-old fashion designer and granddaughter of a Red Army founder, said in an email. "In reality," she said, "the children of major government families get very high scrutiny. Most are very careful to avoid even the appearance of improper favoritism."

For the first few decades after Mao's 1949 revolution, the children of Communist chieftains were largely out of sight, growing up in walled compounds and attending elite schools such as the Beijing No. 4 Boys' High School, where the elder Mr. Bo and several other current leaders studied.

In the 1980s and '90s, many princelings went abroad for postgraduate studies, then often joined Chinese state companies, government bodies or foreign investment banks. But they mostly maintained a very low profile.

Now, families of China's leaders send their offspring overseas ever younger, often to top private schools in the U.S., Britain and Switzerland, to make sure they can later enter the best Western universities. Princelings in their 20s, 30s and 40s increasingly take prominent positions in commerce, especially in private equity, which allows them to maximize their profits and also brings them into regular contact with the Chinese and international business elite.

Younger princelings are often seen among the models, actors and sports stars who gather at a strip of nightclubs by the Workers' Stadium in Beijing to show off Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Maseratis. Others have been spotted talking business over cigars and vintage Chinese liquor in exclusive venues such as the Maotai Club, in a historic house near the Forbidden City.
On a recent afternoon at a new polo club on Beijing's outskirts, opened by a grandson of a former vice premier, Argentine players on imported ponies put on an exhibition match for prospective members.
"We're bringing polo to the public. Well, not exactly the public," said one staff member. "That man over there is the son of an army general. That one's grandfather was mayor of Beijing."
Princelings also are becoming increasingly visible abroad. Ms. Ye, the fashion designer, was featured in a recent edition of Vogue magazine alongside Wan Baobao, a jewelry designer who is the granddaughter of a former vice premier.

But it is Bo Guagua who stands out among the younger princelings. No other child of a serving Politburo member has ever had such a high profile, both at home and abroad.

His family's status dates back to Bo Yibo, who helped lead Mao's forces to victory, only to be purged in the 1966-76 Cultural Revolution. Bo Yibo was eventually rehabilitated, and his son, Bo Xilai, was a rising star in the party by 1987, when Bo Guagua was born.

The boy grew up in a rarefied environment—closeted in guarded compounds, ferried around in chauffeur-driven cars, schooled partly by tutors and partly at the prestigious Jingshan school in Beijing, according to friends.

In 2000, his father, by then mayor of the northeastern city of Dalian, sent his 12-year-old son to a British prep school called Papplewick, which according to its website currently charges £22,425 (about $35,000) a year.

About a year later, the boy became the first person from mainland China to attend Harrow, one of Britain's most exclusive private schools, which according to its website currently charges £30,930 annually.

In 2006, by which time his father was China's commerce minister, Mr. Bo went to Oxford University to study philosophy, politics and economics. The current cost of that is about £26,000 a year. His current studies at Harvard's Kennedy School cost about $70,000 a year.

“'The children of major government families get very high scrutiny,' says the granddaughter of a Red Army founder.”

A question raised by this prestigious overseas education, worth a total of almost $600,000 at today's prices, is how it was paid for. Friends said that they didn't know, though one suggested that Mr. Bo's mother paid with the earnings of her legal career. Her law firm declined to comment.

Bo Guagua has been quoted in the Chinese media as saying that he won full scholarships from age 16 onward. Harrow, Oxford and the Kennedy School said that they couldn't comment on an individual student.
The cost of education is a particularly hot topic among members of China's middle class, many of whom are unhappy with the quality of schooling in China. But only the relatively rich can send their children abroad to study.

For others, it is Bo Guagua's freewheeling lifestyle that is controversial. Photos of him at Oxford social events—in one case bare-chested, other times in a tuxedo or fancy dress—have been widely circulated online.

In 2008, Mr. Bo helped to organize something called the Silk Road Ball, which included a performance by martial-arts monks from China's Shaolin temple, according to friends. He also invited Jackie Chan, the Chinese kung fu movie star, to lecture at Oxford, singing with him on stage at one point.

The following year, Mr. Bo was honored in London by a group called the British Chinese Youth Federation as one of "Ten Outstanding Young Chinese Persons." He was also an adviser to Oxford Emerging Markets, a firm set up by Oxford undergraduates to explore "investment and career prospects in emerging markets," according to its website.
This year, photos circulated online of Mr. Bo on a holiday in Tibet with another princeling, Chen Xiaodan, a young woman whose father heads the China Development Bank and whose grandfather was a renowned revolutionary. The result was a flurry of gossip, as well as criticism on the Internet of the two for evidently traveling with a police escort. Ms. Chen didn't respond to requests for comment via email and Facebook.

A Home Fit for a Princeling : A $32.4 million harborside mansion in Sydney.

Asked about his son's apparent romance at a news conference during this year's parliament meeting, Bo Xilai replied, enigmatically, "I think the business of the third generation—aren't we talking about democracy now?"

Friends say that the younger Mr. Bo recently considered, but finally decided against, leaving Harvard to work on an Internet start-up called guagua.com. The domain is registered to an address in Beijing. Staff members there declined to reveal anything about the business. "It's a secret," said a young man who answered the door.

It is unclear what Mr. Bo will do after graduating and whether he will be able to maintain such a high profile if his father is promoted, according to friends. He said during a speech at Peking University in 2009 that he wanted to "serve the people" in culture and education, according to a Chinese newspaper, Southern Weekend.

He ruled out a political career but showed some of his father's charisma and contradictions in answering students' questions, according to the newspaper. Asked about the pictures of him partying at Oxford, he quoted Chairman Mao as saying "you should have a serious side and a lively side," and went on to discuss what it meant to be one of China's new nobility.
"Things like driving a sports car, I know British aristocrats are not that arrogant," he said. "Real aristocrats absolutely don't do that, but are relatively low-key."

陈凯一语 Kai Chen's Words：

在专制文化中寻找幸福犹如在尿盆中撒满尿冒充大海去游泳、捕鱼、取乐，是一种极度害人害己的自欺欺人。中国的专制就像这样一个充满尿液的尿盆，传统专制的毒素、病菌、病毒与寄生虫充斥着中国专制祖先的排泄物。人们自欺地说着这液体也是咸的，只是有着“中国特色的黄色”，只是与外部大海的蓝色不同而已。殊不知在这黄色的毒液病液废液之中是永远孕育产生不出健康的生命与有希望的未来。在这黄色排泄液体中只能产生畸形的怪物、幻觉的高潮与污染毒害世界的虚无文化。

To seek happiness in a culture of despotism is like to create an ocean in a chamber pot with human urine, wishing to extract pleasure in swimming/living in it. It is an extreme form of self-deception.

China's despotic culture from ancient to modern is just like such a chamber pot full of human waste with all kinds of poisons, viruses, germs and parasites.... The self-deceiving Chinese boast that to swim in such a chamber pot is just like to swim in the real ocean, for the liquid tastes the same - all salty. The yellow color is only a distinctive "Chinese characteristic", only different from the ocean's blue. But what they haven't told you is that in such a "chamber pot lake", there can never be any healthy form of life, nor can there be any hope and future. The truth? In this filthy liquid of human waste there have already been countless deaths, pain, suffering and misery. There can only be perverted creatures, orgasmic illusions and endless nihilistic pollutant to poison the world.

“自由人” 对抗“中国人”序列
“Free Beings” vs. “Chinese” Series

By Kai Chen 陈凯 11/22/2011 www.kaichenblog.blogspot.com

许多“海外反共人士们”常常哀叹、诧异中共的“迟迟不倒”。他们也常撰写文章分析其中的原因。殊不知他们自身的“用中国的传统专制倒共”的逻辑使他们自己成为了“中共不倒”的主要原因。他们自身的逻辑与道德的虚无与混乱正是问题的症结，而绝非解决问题的“对症下药”。

当人们高喊“民主”、“人权”的时候，他们从不意识到中共在反国民党取得政权之前喊得是同样的口号。被长期欺骗的中国的人们自然地会做出一个无奈的但逻辑的结论 – “有什么用？”（言外之意：谁也不是什么好东西。）迷恋于“追求完美的专制”而从不相信有普世终极的“人的价值”导致了中国的人们对一个“不可能完美但永远向前的‘自由社会’”无动于衷。甚至有人常常撰文抨击美国的自由宪政文化，指责其“太自由了”。 “太自由社会就会大乱”，“有了枪那还得了”，“我们中国就是要有中国的特色”，“中国人就是要有人管”、、，如此论调比比皆是。

中共当局也乘机、乘乱、乘糊涂而入，不断用什么“新文化”洗脑运动告诉人们：世界上没有什么“好与坏”、“真与假”、“对与错”、“进步与落后”，“正义与邪恶”，更没有什么普世终极的“人的价值”。既然世界上一切都是“黑”的，都是以“强弱”、“内外”、“你我”、“上下”的利益而定的，那一个人的选择就是在“你的黑”与“我的黑”之间，在中国的“邪恶”与西方/美国的“邪恶”之间，在我们的“枪杆子/强权”与他们的“枪杆子/强权”之间。当然了，在“龙的传人”的道德虚无的心态中，选择中国的与祖宗的“黑”与“邪恶”是理所当然的了。

我常说：在西方/美国不是没有邪恶，但西方的基督文化告诉人们邪恶绝不是良德。在一个自由社会中，人们认知自身的“原弊/不完美”也懂得“人是绝成不了神”的。由此人们从不期待“有原弊的人”会建立一个“完美”的社会与制度。人们只基于普世终极的价值去着力建立与维护人的“生命、自由、尊严”与“对个体幸福追求的权利”。基于对普世终极的价值的存在的信仰，西方/美国的人们不断地用“基督精神”的指南走入未知、创造求新、走向未来与希望。这是一个“方向性的（向前行的）文化心态”。

在中国，人们的文化心态则是与西方/美国相反。在几千年的“驴拉磨”、“抽陀螺”的“专制朝代文化”的心态中，人们用“道德虚无/道德相对”的心态建立与维护了一个“好就是坏”、“真就是假”、“黑就是白”的“强权/杀人决定一切”的“人鬼文化”。 “繁荣富强”、“为国为民族”、“和谐小康”等“用群压个”“用权压值”“用多压少”“用枪/强欺弱”成了“中国人”的“普世终极”的“具有中国特色”的反价值的病态迷恋。在中国，邪恶被认为是良德，精明的欺骗被认为是智慧， “偷抢骗”被认为是“赚钱”，“愤青报国”被认为是勇敢，抄袭、剽窃、模仿被认为是创造，“送红包、拍马屁、受贿行贿”被认为是有“中国特色”的“关系学”，“强奸、诱奸、卖淫”被认为是“爱情”的同义语，没有尊严的“混日子”被认为是“生活”。

对照一下这两种文化心态，你还能说希望与绝望、存在与虚无是一回事儿吗？你还能说在尿盆里扑腾的“黄色文化”与在自然界的大海中畅游的“蓝色文化”是一回事儿吗？你也可能会说： “有什么不一样？都是液体，都是咸的，尿盆里的尿撒多了（GDP）人就可以浮起来。只不过我们是中国特色 – 黄的。” 你也可能会说： “有什么不一样？在西方/美国也一样：有时左、有时右、有时快、有时慢。驴拉磨/抽陀螺与‘向前行’的感觉不都是一样的吗？” 最终你也可以说： “反正人总得死。死与生没有什么本质区别。下辈子又是一个人。” 无怪乎“中国人”活着的时候好像他们永远都死不了，死的时候又好像他们一分钟都没有活过。

中共党朝不倒，事情只能越来越坏。中共党朝倒了，事情也不一定就会变好。伊朗与埃及就是例子。共产党曾高叫： “只要打到了蒋家王朝，中国就会有希望/民主”。真的吗？！

中国的共产王朝就如同中国的历代王朝一样，都逃不过衰败、腐朽、灭亡的朝代规律与命运。它的末日就在眼前。一个被蛀虫蛀空的，腐烂的树是没有生机的，必然倒塌的死木头。像中国专制的许多王朝一样，中共党朝的倒台很有可能并不是由于外部力量的推挤，而是在于内部的腐败与分赃不均而引起的。这就说明共后社会的心态与价值的准备（“用什么来取代中共党朝？”这一命题）比“倒共”本身重要一百倍。

“中共必倒”这一事实绝不等于说“共后的社会”就自然是一个自由的道德社会。人们今天更需要将注意力放到“共后社会”的建立上：但至今我还没有看到一点迹象表明人们在对未来有设想、准备与行动。我曾在“共后时代的标像符号及语言/一些构想”一文中表达了我的观点。我也希望更多的人们将注意力集中到“共后自由社会”的建立上。什么样的文化心态、政治构架、宗教信仰、宪法法律、语言艺术、标像符号等等是人们要从头开始建立的？什么样的文化心态、政治构架、宗教信仰、宪法法律、语言艺术、标像符号等等是要被彻底摈弃的？人们是否还想用“追求完美专制”的心态去“自上而下”地“走捷径”而再误入“驴拉磨”“抽陀螺”的“专制朝代的无奈循环”的歧途？ “中国人”对邪恶的无限容忍与对良知真理漠视的能力总是能让我膛目结舌。

共产王朝比国民党邪恶一百倍。谁又能保证“返祖复古”的“共后王朝”不比共产王朝再邪恶一百倍呢？为什么人们总是在“坏与更坏”之间无奈徘徊而拒绝建立“方向性”的，基普世终极价值而在“好与更好”之间做出个体的选择并承担后果与责任呢？ “婊子牌坊”的中间道路是没有的。你必须选择。

共后时代的标像符号及语言/一些构想
Symbolism after Communism/Some Thoughts

真实，正义，自由，尊严
Truth, Justice, Liberty, Dignity

陈凯一语： Kai Chen's Words:

中共政权的末日即将来到。一个重大的、急切的任务是在后共时代建立新的崇尚真理，正义，自由与尊严的文化和政体。反映这些新的价值的标像符号及语言词汇是绝对必要的与迫切的。这需要人的正向的清晰的道德标准和人的广博的想象力。反映负向价值的标像符号及语言词汇一定要尽快消亡。反映正向价值的标像符号及语言词汇一定要尽快建立。

The beginning of the downfall of the China's communist regime has already arrived. An urgent task of an utmost importance in the post-communist era will face us very soon. We must establish an entirely new form of government based on an entirely new culture that values Truth, Justice, Liberty and Human Dignity. To do so means first to establish a set of new symbols and a set of new vocabulary, possibly based on a new language. It is not easy but it must be done.

To establish this new culture and a new form of government, one must have moral clarity and abundant imaginations. Nonetheless, old symbolism, vocabulary and language that reflect the values of despotism and tyranny must be replaced by a new set of symbols and vocabulary, by a new language that reflects human yearning for freedom and happiness. And this must be done as soon as possible.

***********************************************

By Kai Chen 陈凯 (Reprint 7/20/2011)

We can all sense the coming demise of the Chinese communist regime. And they, the communists themselves, know as well that their reign of tyranny is coming to an end soon. We must now ask ourselves that whether or not we are ready for a new society, a new set of human values, an entirely new kind of culture and an entirely new form of government. We must ask ourselves whether or not our own mind is still controlled by the old symbols, old vocabulary, old language, old habits and old patterns of behavior. [b]If we are not aware of the fact that the poisons in us by our slave masters from the past still effect the way we think and behave, we are doomed to repeat the history.

I now want to establish a survey here to arouse your own imagination, to challenge your own old habits, to question your own mindset and to cleanse your own cultural poisons by generations and dynasties of despotism. By doing so, you may start a new culture yourself here. You may live in a new state of consciousness. You may finally embark on your own journey, away from the vicious Chinese dynastic cycles, toward human dignity, human freedom and human happiness.

Best. Kai Chen 陈凯

8. 各独立联邦体自立称号，自立标像符号：
Each Political Entities Establish Their Own Symbolism:

My View: Each political entity under the constitution within the Federation must be independent to establish their own set of symbols such as anthems, songs, flowers, animal, flags, etc..

各入联体将独立建立代表自己的标像符号，包括歌曲，旗帜，花，动物等等。
9. 禁毛像与共产标像符号：
Ban Mao's Image and Communist Symbols:

立法宣布在公共场合展示毛像及共产标志（如镰刀斧头，中共国旗等等）为非法，如同今日德国立法宣布在公共场合展示希特勒像与纳粹符为非法一样。
The new nation's legislature should legislate to ban public display of Mao's image and symbols of communism such as sickle and hammer/communist regime's flag.

My View: The new nation's citizens will be fined or sentenced to public services for displaying Mao's image and communist symbols.

新国度的个体如在公共场合展示毛像与共产标志应按法律受到罚款、劳役服务等处罚。

James Clapper on China Threat 美国情报局-中共成为美国最大的威胁

China deemed biggest threat to U.S.
美国情报局/中共已成为对美最大的威胁

Russia second, DNI chief says

By Eli Lake The Washington Times

Thursday, March 10, 2011

China’s nuclear arsenal poses the most serious “mortal threat” to the United States among nation states, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told the Senate on Thursday.

Director of US National Intelligence James Clapper

In candid testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Mr. Clapper said he considered China the most significant threat among nation states, with Russia posing the second-greatest threat. He later clarified the comments by saying he did not assess that China or Russia had the intention to launch an attack on the United States.

The testimony contrasts with statements by Obama administration officials who have sought to highlight the dangers of Iran and North Korea while paying less attention to China and Russia.

Mr. Clapper said he does not assess that North Korea and Iran pose greater strategic threats because they lack the forces that Russia and China have that could deliver a nuclear attack on the United States.

North Korea has tested at least twice a multistaged long-range missile capable of hitting the United States. On Tuesday, Sen. James M. Inhofe, Oklahoma Republican, told a conference in Washington that analysts estimate that Iran would be able to deliver a payload by missile to the U.S. East Coast by 2015.

Asked by Sen. Joe Manchin III, West Virginia Democrat, what country he viewed as the greatest adversary of the United States, Mr. Clapper said: “Probably China, if the question is pick one nation state.”

He added, “We have a treaty, the New START treaty, with the Russians. I guess I would rank them a little lower because we don’t have such a treaty with the Chinese.”

China, according to successive Pentagon reports to Congress, is building up its strategic nuclear forces and has spurned offers from the administration to begin talks on nuclear arms, missile defenses, space and cyberweapons, as well as an international agreement to limit the production of fissile material.

On Libya, Mr. Clapper said besieged leader Col. Moammar Gadhafi likely will prevail in his regime’s battle against rebel forces. He also said the North African state may break into three republics or, in a worst-case scenario, descend into a lawless state like Somalia.

That view appears at odds with the position of the White House. President Obama has said Col. Gadhafi should resign from power. This week, senior U.S. officials also suggested that a U.N. Security Council resolution on Libya would not prohibit the transfer of arms to the rebels.

Mr. Clapper’s Libya remarks along with his assessment of the China threat earned him rebukes from some senators. In an interview with Fox News, Sen. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Republican, said Mr. Clapper should step down or be fired for saying in a public forum that Col. Gadhafi would prevail over the rebels.

During the hearing, Sen. Carl Levin, Michigan Democrat and committee chairman, said he was “surprised” by Mr. Clapper’s statement on China.

After Mr. Clapper clarified that he was speaking about capabilities and not intentions, Mr. Levin said, “I was just as surprised by that answer as your first answer. You’re saying that China now has the intent to be a mortal adversary of the United States?”

Mr. Clapper responded, “Well the question is who, from my vantage, from among the nation states who would pose potentially the greatest [threat] if I had to pick one country, which I am loathe to do because I am more of the mind to consider their capabilities, both Russia and China potentially represent a broad threat to the United States. I don’t think either country today has the intent to mortally attack us.”

Defense officials have acknowledged that U.S. intelligence agencies have underestimated China's military capabilities. But the intelligence community is beginning to express more concerns about China's military buildup, which has been carried out largely in secret.

Army Lt. Gen. Ronald L. Burgess Jr., the Defense Intelligence Agency director, appeared with Mr. Clapper and agreed that China’s power projection is growing.

“While remaining focused on Taiwan as a primary mission, China will, by 2020, lay the foundation for a force able to accomplish broader and regional global objectives,” he said.

Gen. Burgess said China's military “continues to face deficiencies in interservice cooperation and actual experience in joint exercises and combat operations.”

“China’s leaders continue to stress asymmetric strategies to leverage China’s advantage while exploiting potential opponents’ perceived vulnerabilities,” the general said.

One asymmetric strategy China is pursuing is the use of computer-based cyberprobes into U.S. classified computer networks. Mr. Clapper said the cyber-activity is a “formidable concern.”

“The Chinese have made a substantial investment in this area, they have a very large organization devoted to it and they’re pretty aggressive,” Mr. Clapper said. “This is just another way in which they glean information about us and collect on us for technology purposes, so it’s a very formidable concern.”

In the hearing, Mr. Clapper stressed that Iran’s supreme leader had not given the order to produce nuclear weapons in Iran.

The comments on Iran’s nuclear program appeared to support a 2007 National Intelligence Estimate that said Iran halted work on nuclear weapons in 2003.

Last month, a CIA report to Congress dropped language from two previous reports that said Iran was keeping open its option to build nuclear weapons, as the National Intelligence Council recently notified Congress that it had altered the 2007 estimate. Officials declined to specify what was changed because the revision was classified.

Gen. Burgess said Iran is helping terrorists train and obtain weapons.

“At Iran’s behest, Lebanese Hezbollah provides Iraqi insurgents with weapons and training to attack U.S. forces. Iran also provides weapons, explosives and munitions to insurgents in Afghanistan.”

从活熊取胆汁到活人取器官-吃人奴役文化的必然 From Bear Farm to Organ Harvesting

China's cruel bear farms 中国的活熊取胆汁

陈凯博客： www.kaichenblog.blogspot.com

从活熊取胆汁到活人取器官-吃人奴役文化的必然
From Bear Farm to Organ Harvesting

陈凯一语： Kai Chen's Words:

从活熊取胆汁，到活兽剥皮，到猴头大宴，到笼鸟取乐、、、吃人奴役的文化一直被中国人不以为耻，反以为荣地认为那是中国文化不同于西方文化的特殊性。他们不知道这种认识正是他们一直受辱做奴的根源，正是他们永远脱离不了“人吃人”的文化的基点原因。吃人，受辱，忠国，做奴的伪道德早已成为中国人们自我认同的主要成分。

From bear farms to skinning wild animals alive, from monkey brain banquet to caged birds as entertainment..., man-eating slave culture has long become a source of not a shame, but a pride for the Chinese. They often brag that this is the Chinese cultural difference from that of the West. They have yet to realize that it is indeed this fake pride that dooms the Chinese into the abyss of despotism and slavery, that indeed it is this fake pride that dooms the Chinese into an eternal "man-eating" dynastic cycle. A zombie-like, blood-sucking slave loyal only to the institution of state-slavery has long been the essential identity for most Chinese.

--------------------------------------------------------

Dear Visitors:

Have you thought about the roots of the Chinese despotism and why it has lasted so long?

For those who refuse to admit the Chinese culture is essentially evil, I want to ask you this question: "Why does a good culture, as you claim Chinese culture is, always eliminate good people and retain bad people via a vicious cultural selection process??" If the Chinese culture is as good as you claim, why are you unable to return to your homeland? Why do those who remain on the mainland of China lack essential moral fibers a normal human being should have? Why do the Chinese dynasties, including the current communist dynasty, decline one after another, year after year? Why does the Chinese society keep deteriorating to today's state composed of only zombies? Why are the Chinese unable to escape from the traps set up by their own ancestors?

Unless you honestly answer those questions, you will not truly understand yourself, and you will not understand the necessary connection between the first Qin Emperor and Mao, between the old-man dominated Chinese family and despotic tyranny in China, between monkey brain banquet and man-eating-man in society, between bear bile farming and human organ harvesting.... Only truth shall set you free. Unless you search honestly for the truth, you will never lift yourself above an evil culture of slavery. Unless you honestly face your own demon in your own heart and mind, you will never progress out of the seemingly interminable Chinese dynasties.

My best wishes to you all. Kai Chen 陈凯

陈凯一语：Kai Chen's Words:

"Only the good and the real can be great. It takes a great man to recognize greatness; it takes a small man to deny greatness. To recognize greatness around you is to allow yourself to be great; to deny greatness around you is to deny and destroy your own greatness. True greatness, like goodness, will manifest itself no matter what. Be brave and prepared to be great yourself, if you don't see any greatness around you."

只有真实的和道德的才可能是伟大的。只有人的伟大才能去承认伟大本身；一个小人往往去否认伟大。承认你存在周围的伟大其实是允许你自身伟大的可能；否认你存在周围的伟大其实是否认与毁灭你自身伟大的可能。真正的伟大就像真正的天良一样，不论如何都会闪亮发光。如果你的周围充满了渺小，拿出勇气，做好准备去表现你自身的伟大。

价值一语： Words of Value:

Being strong does not mean being strong in a physical sense. It means in a spiritual, mental sense and in terms of a person's character. One who is indomitable in facing life's obstacles is our hero, for he or she is the truly strong. --- Kai Chen

强者并不意味着生理上的强壮。强者意味着人在精神，头脑，与品质上的强。一个绝不被生活中的挫折所压倒的不屈不挠的人是真正的强者和英雄。 --- 陈凯

Good nature is worth more than knowledge, more than money, more than honor, to the persons who possess it. --- Henry Ward Beecher

优秀的品质对一个人比知识，金钱，荣誉更重要。 --- Henry Ward Beecher

By Kai Chen 陈凯（Reprint 11/16/2011)

China has never been a great country. Mao has never been a great man. They have never been such because they have never been real and never been good.

I have never believed that small, evil and despicable men can create a great country. I have always beieved that only great individuals can create a great country. If you ever expect China to be great, be great yourself. If you ever expect China to be free, be free yourself. If you ever expect China to have a hope, be hopeful yourself... You are the one who creates your own tomorrow. You are the one who creates your own fate and destiny. Don't be afraid to be great, and don't be afraid of the responsibilities that come with your greatness. Shed your "small man" mentality, manifest your greatness. It is in you, it is in everyone of us. It is always there. Only you are too timid to admit it, or too reluctant to recognize it. But without you showing your greatness, how can the world be great?!

“自由的代价是相当大的，但自由的可贵是无价的。”
"The price of freedom is huge; but freedom itself is priceless."

你真想自由吗？你就一定要有自由人必有的勇气。你就一定要战胜你心中的恐惧感去面对真实。 “只有追求真实才能使你得到自由。”

你真想自由吗？你就一定要在灵魂中建立真实的信仰 – 相信世界上有真实、有爱、有尊严，相信正义一定会战胜邪恶，真实一定会暴露虚假，自由一定会击垮奴役，爱一定会超越仇恨。

你真想自由吗？你的上苍就就一定是解放人的，有宽容与爱的，勇敢探索挑战未知的，引导人走向幸福、欢乐、创造与希望的；你的上苍就绝不会是恐吓人的、威胁人的、惩罚人的、扭曲人的与奴役人的。

你真想自由吗？你就一定要认知自身的原弊而决不能将自己视为神，或视为他人的依附与主宰。你的自知与不断的自我发掘是你永远追求自由的先决。

你真想自由吗？你就一定不要灭绝与贬低你自身的伟大、价值与美德，也绝不要允许任何人灭绝与贬低你自身来自上苍的独特的品质与特质。

你真想自由吗？你就一定不要停止对未知的探求，对未来的憧憬，对自身的认知。你就一定不能在知识上设置任何禁区。

你真想自由吗？你就一定不要说谎，特别是不要对自己说谎。你就一定不要造假并为自己的方便与走捷径而制造幻觉。你就一定要永远追求真实，不管真实使你痛苦或快乐，不管真实把你带向何处。

你真想自由吗？你就一定不要相信“和谐”、“繁荣”、“统一”、“民族”、“大家”、“族群”、“国家”等虚无的伪价值并为此保持沉默，空喊口号，为群害人，为强权与争权而行为说话。

你真想自由吗？你就一定要用对自身的发掘与努力去创造价值与他人交流/交换，而决不能用精明去讨好多数，献媚强权，取益他人而不择手段地去偷、抢、骗取价值。

你真想自由吗？你就一定不能期待个体财产与成就的平等；你就一定不能指望一个绝对平安/安定的生活；你就绝对不能幻想有什么“世界和平”，“世界大同”，“人间天堂”。

你真想自由吗？你就一定要建立真实的个体认同而绝不允许他人与群体/家庭将你的个体价值放置在它们的框框盒子里。那些想要用虚假的“确定感”消灭/否认真实的独特的个体认同的人既不会有“确定感”也不会得到自由与真实的幸福。

你真想自由吗？你就一定要勇于承担风险与犯错的代价：人生最大的危险是不去承担风险；人生最大的错误是因为害怕犯错误而无所作为。

你真想自由吗？你就一定要“是人”而绝不要去“做人”。 “是人”（Human Being）是因为你是上苍所创而具有你自身特殊的意义与实质。 “做人/奴”（Human/Slave Molding）则是要你遵循人造的伦理/礼去消灭/否认你的上苍赋予的特质与实质。

你真想自由吗？你就一定要有自尊（self-esteem）并给予你的家人与他人“是人”(Human Being)的尊严。你自身的自由与尊严是你尊重家人与他人的自由与尊严的必要前提。

你真想自由吗？你就一定要选择使用你自由的工具与武器。竹篮子是打不起水来的。客观的语言与词汇是认知真实一个必须。英文是最好的工具选择。中文只能作为你的艺术爱好。

BOWING TO BEIJING: HOW BARACK OBAMA IS HASTENING AMERICA’S DECLINE AND USHERING A CENTURY OF CHINESE DOMINATION
向北京缴械 - 奥巴马当局如何导致美国的衰落与中共党朝的猖獗

By Brett M. Decker and William C. Triplett II
Regnery, $27.95, 231 pages

Book Link: 书籍连锁：

http://www.amazon.com/Bowing-Beijing-Hastening-Americas-Domination/dp/1596982896/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1321385474&sr=1-1

President Obama is creating a post-American world — one that is ushering in the dominance of China. Mr. Obama is fostering U.S. economic and military decline while simultaneously empowering Beijing’s rise to superpower status. China’s communists are on the march. Unless Americans wake up to the growing threat, both internal and external, our victory in the Cold War will have been useless.

This is the disturbing theme of “Bowing to Beijing: How Barack Obama Is Hastening America’s Decline and Ushering a Century of Chinese Domination,” by Brett M. Decker, editorial page editor of The Washington Times, and William C. Triplett II, a best-selling author and renowned China analyst. Lucid, concise and comprehensively researched, the book is a fire bell in the night. It is a dire warning that China has become what America once was to Great Britain: the ambitious upstart determined to eclipse the global colossus. The result will be not only the end of the American moment, but the triumph of a belligerent authoritarian communism hostile to democracy and the West.

“China’s leaders are engaged in a war against America. They view us as a threat to their regime and way of life. Hence, they have embarked on a systematic, long-term program to surpass us militarily, economically and politically,” Mr. Decker said in an interview. “They are willing to do anything — purchase our national debt, steal our intellectual property, spend obscene amounts to buy influence in Washington, engage in extensive espionage in our government and large corporations, and sell sensitive missile and nuclear technology to our mortal enemies — to defeat us. And the Obama administration is turning a blind eye.”

The authors reveal that Beijing believes it is in a life-and-death struggle against America. For years, China’s ruthless communist regime has been committing hostile, aggressive acts — stealing valuable military technology, blatantly violating patent and intellectual property laws, manipulating its currency to artificially boost exports to the United States, lying about the nature and extent of its massive military buildup, sending spies into the highest echelons of our government and private sector, hacking into our computer networks, waging cyberwarfare, purchasing stakes in major banks, and cultivating our economic dependence on Chinese business.

In response, Mr. Obama has embraced the Chinese dragon. In January 2011, he acceded to Chinese demands and gave a state dinner honoring President Hu Jintao. Mr. Obama praised Mr. Hu as a statesman and welcomed China’s prominent role in world affairs. It was a craven surrender. The authors point out that while he was communist party chief in Tibet, Mr. Hu oversaw the slaughter of hundreds of Tibetan Buddhist monks. Moreover, he has ruled China with an iron fist. Thousands of dissidents have been murdered or rot in jail.

The media is heavily censored. Free speech is nonexistent. Basic human rights are abrogated routinely.

The country’s Christians, Falun Gong and Muslims face state-sanctioned persecution. Tens of millions are in gulags, being used as slave labor to drive China’s booming economy. Mr. Hu staunchly supports Beijing’s genocidal one-child policy, which has led to millions of forced abortions and has coerced countless women to be sterilized against their will. He is not a progressive visionary; rather, he is a butcher. This is the man Mr. Obama toasts — and to whom he bows.

At a major nuclear summit in 2010, Mr. Obama bent over and bowed fully to Mr. Hu. The Chinese leader did not reciprocate. In fact, his face and body language conveyed the opposite: contempt. The protocol breech is nuts, and frequent. As president, Mr. Obama is constantly abnegating himself to foreign leaders. The emperor of Japan, the king of Saudi Arabia, the queen of England — there is almost no one to whom he will not bow. Domestically, he has bowed to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and even to the Democratic mayor of Tampa. It is odd. The authors say Mr. Obama even has bowed repeatedly to midlevel Chinese functionaries.

His submissive behavior does more than demean and degrade the presidency. For the authors, it rightly signifies Washington’s growing subservience to Beijing. Under Mr. Obama, America’s national debt has soared to nearly $15 trillion. Obamacare, the massive stimulus, crippling regulations and the reckless borrowing and public spending have brought us to the brink of bankruptcy. The private sector has been shackled. Economic sclerosis has set in. Our military lacks the dynamic economy necessary to sustain our global standing. Mr. Obama has significantly weakened American power.

China is filling the vacuum. Beijing now owns more than $1.3 trillion of U.S. debt. It annually runs huge trade surpluses, flooding our market with everything from toys to computers to manufacturing products. America’s industrial base is being wiped out. As we become the world’s greatest debtor nation, China is amassing more than $3 trillion in hard-currency reserves. Its economy is exploding, fueling annual growth rates averaging 10 percent for nearly two decades.

The authors show, however, that the red dragon’s rise is anything but peaceful. Beijing is embarking on a huge, almost unprecedented military buildup. It possesses the largest armed force on the planet. It has 2.3 million men in uniform, compared to 1.4 million in the United States. If one includes reservists and paramilitary forces, the total number is close to 5 million. China is expanding its nuclear arsenal. It is constructing a world-class navy to dominate the western Pacific. It menaces its democratic neighbors, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea. Along with its client state of North Korea, China has sold missiles and vital nuclear technology to Iran, Syria and Venezuela – aiding and abetting our archadversaries. It is spearheading a global anti-American axis.

When confronted with the overwhelming evidence of Chinese expansionism and nefarious duplicity, the Obama administration has refused to take action. The reason is simple: America is turning into an economic vassal of China. We can no longer afford to upset — never mind challenge — our new imperial master. Instead, we must bow. This is Mr. Obama’s real, enduring and shameful legacy. We didn’t win the Cold War. Communist China did.

宁愿自己有朝一日战死，也不让自己的孩子被自己的懦弱所放过的独裁政权奴役

--- 追悼小悦悦

By BZ

小悦悦死了，一个两岁的小女孩被车两次碾压倒血泊中，18个路人冷漠地从她身边走过，一如对待一只被碾死的野狗。这就是我们今天生活的社会，一个人性泯灭良知备失的社会，中国----今天无疑已经成为事实上的人间地狱。

这件事对于绝大部分中国人的价值无非只是多了一个茶余饭后谈论的话题，回头可以什么事情都没有发生过一样继续他们貌似正常的生活。然而究竟还要发生多少这样的悲剧，才能唤醒这些麻木不仁残忍冷酷的国人。这些悲剧离我们是近是远，我们可以做这样的假设，倘若今天我们的小孩在一个陌生的环境被车碾压，我们可否相信看到的人一定会挺身相救？我想我们应该很清楚问题的答案，那就是这样的几率小得让我们胆寒。但我们已经习惯自我安慰：这样的事情发生在我和我的家人身上的几率太小了，我们会默默的祈祷我们的家人千万别遭遇这样的事情，如果实在遭遇了只能自认倒霉。我们还会欺骗自己，其实自己过得还不错，至少没有遭遇这样的不幸，我们只是无能为力，我们相信我们只要循规蹈矩老老实实的待着，祸患就会远离我们，我们至少可以保守自己一方安宁。

但是，假如我们的孩子真的遭遇了此事，我们会不会渴望我们躺在血泊中处于死亡边缘的孩子，有人第一时间上前救助，我们会不会对此庆幸和万分感激。一个有人性的社会，一个有人性的人，是不会眼睁睁看着小孩被碾死不管的。这个社会一再发生泯灭人性和良知的事情，我们就应该停下匆忙的脚步，认认真真地检视我们的内心，我们的社会，我们的道德，我们必须意识到，我们正生活在一个怎样可怕的时代。

其实我们很清楚，这个社会的整个道德体系已经崩溃，人性已经丧失，每个人都生活在危险之中，今天这样的事情发生在别人那里，我们却没有办法保证同样的事情不发生在自己身上。我们老去的时候如果摔倒了，肯定没有多少人敢过来搀扶，我们的小孩发生危险，肯定不会有毫不犹疑的热心人过来救助，我们如果遭遇了不公和不幸，同样也指望不了他人的关怀。我们只是卑微而绝望地活着，我们自我安慰，今天我还活着，我他妈的就是幸福，我又没有去害人，别人的事与我何干。明天我要是遭遇危难和不幸，我又会痛斥那些坐视不理的人，甚至因没有得到他人的帮助而加深对所有人不幸的冷漠。面对不公不义不幸，我们总是为自己寻找开脱的理由，他是不是骗子，会不会栽赃陷害，他的血会脏了我的衣服，我还有比这更重要事情要处理，我甚至会遭到黑恶势力的迫害。我们只要稍加犹疑，我们就可以轻易回到“鸵鸟埋头”事不关己的状态。而在以后漫长泯灭良知的生活中，我们的灵魂必会感到悔恨和耻辱。

今天发生在小悦悦身上的事如果不能引起全社会的反省和忏悔，那明天这样的事情就一定会发生在我们自己身上。我们有必要现在就保持清醒和痛苦，不断追问问题的本质，反复拷问自己的良心，为什么为什么为什么……

答案其实就在我们每个人的心中，我们很清楚导致社会道德溃败的根源在哪里，我们只是没有胆量大声说出来，因为这很可能会招徕麻烦甚至以生命为代价。但是今天这个社会至此，对邪恶的纵容对不幸的漠视，我们每个人都是罪人！谁也别想在道德的至高点独善其身。

很多人劝我不要对现实和社会太过抱怨，人总要往好的方面看，不能总盯着社会的阴暗面沉陷其中。其实我不是总盯着他们，而是他们不断地出现我没有选择漠视和遗忘，社会的诸多不公和悲惨事件，我只是尽我所能发出我自己的一点声音，多少给予些改变和扭转。我只是想尽量保守我不多的人性，不至于沦为僵尸一样的国人，如果说关注和援助他们的不幸和不公是多管闲事瞎操心，那么那些对每天发生在我们身边的悲惨事件选择漠视的人，实际上就等同于漠然从小悦悦身边走过的18个人。这样的人是我们所痛恨的，我们也应该痛恨我们自己。

有人曾对我说，你拖家带口的，你去掺和什么呢，你难道就不怕你的家庭受到牵连，如果有一天你遭遇不幸，你的小孩谁来养，你的老婆如何生活，你的父母谁来照顾。

我想说，这真的是一个很艰难的选择。但我想我知道自己要做什么，我的小孩长大后，如果他像芸芸众生一样平庸，被奴役终其一生，那她一定会为她的父辈没有为她的时代做过一点抗争而心生鄙夷和恨意，如果她不幸成为我这样了解社会运行构架权利统治黑幕以及人性罪恶的人，那她就一定会拼命抗争，甚至为此丧命。一个是做一个痛苦的苟活于世的奴隶，一个是做一个为真理拼命的亡命徒，我相信任何一个做父母的人都不希望自己的子女有这样的人生。我们今天的不作为不是真正为家庭和后代的考虑，而是借故为自己撇开担当正义的逃遁。如果你今天只想保全性命苟活，那你的子女也就必然会如此，你今天过得痛苦，你的子女就必然延续你的痛苦。

所以今天我在此立下誓言，我宁愿自己有朝一日与独裁政权战死，也不让自己的孩子被自己的懦弱所放过的独裁政权奴役，我希望她所处的年代不会像今天一样一再发生泯灭人性的事情，我希望她不会因为自己想表达思想和有所作为而遭到迫害，我希望她拥有属于她自己的幸福人生。仅此而已。

The Dragon's Propaganda Threat
红色恶龙的政宣攻势及其对世界良知的污染

By: William R. Hawkins
FrontPageMagazine.com | Monday, May 11, 2009

A recent expert hearing proved a needed reminder that homeland security is about more than guarding against covert terrorist cells. A graver long-range enemy is funding larger operations and has penetrated deep into major American institutions, acquired U.S. technological secrets, and influences U.S. opinion-makers, as well as a large contingent of its own countrymen living overseas.

On April 30, the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission held a hearing on Chinese propaganda and influence campaigns around the world. As scholars testified, Beijing’s ambitions dwarf those of madmen hiding in caves, and the one party state is mounting a full court press to achieve its aims. The Chinese Communists are promoting Chinese nationalism both at home and among the Overseas Chinese, while playing on the self-interest of foreign business leaders and the anti-nationalism of liberal intellectuals to further their rise at the expense of the United States and its allies.

The Commission was created by Congress and its twelve members are appointed on an equal, bipartisan basis by the Republican and Democratic leaders of the House and Senate.

The Commission invited six experts to testify on the propaganda issue, but I found the work of Dr. Anne-Marie Brady the most compelling. She is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. She has run an international research team since 2005 studying Chinese influence operations and last year published Marketing Dictatorship: Propaganda and Thought Work in Contemporary China (Rowman & Littlefield).

The Chinese government puts a high value on propaganda work, describing it as the life blood (shengmingxian) of the Party-State. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) divides propaganda into two categories: internal directed toward the Chinese people, and external directed toward foreigners in China, Overseas Chinese, and the outside world Internal propaganda is defensive, meant to support the status quo of one-party rule and to combat Western criticism of the dictatorship. External propaganda is both defensive and offensive. Defensively, it seeks to protect Beijing’s rise from foreign actions that might curb its growth in wealth and power. Offensively, it pushes “reunification” with Taiwan and the attainment of equal status among the leading world powers in a “multilateral” international system. This means undermining the “hegemonic” influence of the United States at every turn.

1989 Tiananmen Square massacre. The Chinese authorities needed to turn this sentiment around. They have used two methods. One has been the lure of profits to tap into the considerable economic resources of the Overseas Chinese for investment and technological transfer. China has drawn in large sums of foreign The CCP was shocked by the support the Overseas Chinese gave the pro-democracy protests that led to the direct investment, with more than half of the money coming from the Chinese diaspora.

Hand in hand with the economic appeal is the appeal to ethnic-patriotic sentiment towards the Chinese Motherland. As Brady told the commission, the goal was to “encourage a constructive attitude towards Overseas Chinese helping to make China ‘rich and strong’ (fu qiang). These efforts have been remarkably successful.”

Beijing’s local Chinese language newspapers, radio and television stations; the Internet, and a China Central Television channel (CCTV 4) beamed into foreign markets. Beijing also supports overseas cultural activities; including the teaching of the Chinese language, cultural conferences, and ‘root seeking’ tours back ‘home.’ Confucius Institutes are being opened around the world to better coordinate the cultural campaign. Beijing wants the Overseas Chinese to reject assimilation into the foreign lands to which they fled Maoist China and return to a common allegiance to the ancient Motherland. In 2005, CCTV-9 was revamped into the Chinese version of CNN and BBC, a 24-hour news channel with a global audience. “The station has been granted substantial resources in terms of equipment; but has no editorial independence. CCTV-9 journalists are under constant pressure to present a positive account of China,” according to Brady.

The state-run Xinhua News Service currently provides free content to the Chinese language news media outside China. As Brady reported, “Formerly Hong Kong and Taiwan-based news groups were the main source of news for Overseas Chinese, but in the last ten years they have basically been driven out of the market by a plethora of free Chinese newspapers which derive virtually all their content from the Mainland media.” Few Chinese language newspapers outside China have the financial resources to resist the offer of free content. The same goes for Chinese language radio and television stations abroad. Chinese embassy officials work closely with the Overseas Chinese media in order to ensure their continued compliance with the party line.

In the West it is often argued that the Internet will open China to liberal ideas, but Beijing has been successful in using the Internet to rally patriotic bloggers and hackers. This outpouring of support for the Motherland was most evident in the reaction among Chinese both at home and overseas to Western coverage of unrest in Tibet in March 2008 and, a month later, in the battle between pro-Tibet and pro-China demonstrations during the global Olympic torch relay. Brady noted that “These protests and the later demonstrations were genuine and popular, which shows the effectiveness of China’s efforts to rebuild positive public opinion within the Chinese diaspora, but it should be noted that they received official support, both symbolic and practical. This development matches the rise of popular nationalism within China since 1989, which has been fostered from the top down, but has a genuine resonance with the Chinese population.” One of the evocative slogans promoted by Beijing and picked up online was simple: “Love China.”

During the question period following Brady’s presentation, there was discussion concerning whether the growth of “professionalism” within the Chinese media would work against nationalist sentiment. If professionalism is deemed to be the Western model which pits writers against government policy and national interests as the way of proving independence, Brady had her doubts. Feelings of national pride are alive and well in China. “The Party has high legitimacy” Brady noted, “the patriotic public flocks to CCTV.”

The Chinese people want their country to be come rich and strong, and to take its “rightful” place among the leading world powers, if, indeed, not become the new hegemon as it combines its massive population with advanced technology to create the planet’s largest industrial economy. Only in the decadent West can it be thought that as China modernizes and increases its capabilities, its people will become weaker in spirit and less ambitious.

Beijing wants to ensnare influential foreigners into the romance of a rising China. As Brady testified, “promoting the Chinese economy and encouraging further foreign investment and trade has become the primary task of foreign propaganda work, particularly after 1992. Throughout the 1990s China was certainly successful in promoting awareness of its economic growth and enthusiasm for the opportunities which the Chinese market offered international investors.”

Other witnesses before the Commission picked up on this theme. “China’s efforts to influence U.S. academics, journalists, think tank personnel and other shapers of public opinion are part of its overall aims in the world,” testified Ross Terrill, a historian and Research Associate with Harvard University’s Fairbank Center for Asian Studies. Dr. Terrill has written widely about China since the 1970s. One of his examples demonstrated how easily liberal institutions can fall for the blandishments of very non-liberal regimes. Terrill told the commissioners how, “Prior to the 2008 Olympic Games, the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard went far down the path to offering a workshop for public security officials from Beijing on how to handle the foreign press descending on Beijing for the Olympics. Not a workshop for Chinese journalists, but one for police on how to handle journalists. The workshop was cancelled at the last moment after Nieman alumnae raised questions. Sometimes American intellectuals are more trustful of a foreign government that puts on a good show than of our own government that operates within a cacophony of debate.”

Scholars friendly to China are granted access to officials and research materials, along with other benefits, to build their careers, whereas academics and journalists who are skeptical or questioning of the regime are denied visas and discredited in intellectual circles. But universities are not the only Chinese target. “Money may appear from a businessman with excellent connections in China and it is hard for a think tank, needing funds for its research on China, to decline it. But the money may bring with it major Chinese ideological input into the program of the U.S. think tank,” said Terrill, adding, “In the last year or two, Chinese companies have started making healthy donations to think tanks in Western societies.”

Larry Wortzel, the vice-chair of the Commission who had run the Army War College’s Strategic Studies Institute before becoming Vice President for foreign policy and defense studies at the Heritage Foundation, mentioned that the Center for International Trade and Security at the University of Georgia is working with the China Foreign Affairs University. Yet, as the CITS knows, the CFAU is not a real university, but an arm of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. One CITS-CFAU project is on the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, a major issue of contention in U.S.-China relations. Why the Beijing regime would want to influence how this issue is developed should be obvious. But greed can blind people in academe as well as in business. And to further raise concern, CITS projects in China are funded by the Ford and MacArthur Foundations, two left-wing organizations hostile to U.S. national security policies.

Terrill also noted the large number of Chinese students on U.S. campuses. He noted “the Soviet Union possessed no such human bridge into our society; no authoritarian country has ever had so many of its citizens living in the USA as China does today.” Most of these students are working in science and engineering, including on major technology projects in the private sector, some with military applications. As a sign of the deep problems in the U.S. education system, research centers, universities and corporations strongly oppose any restrictions on Chinese students because there are not enough American students or graduates in the technical fields. It is said that without Chinese students, who currently number around 100,000, many research projects would collapse. Of course, any breakthroughs gained from these American programs will find their way to Chinese industry.

Dr. Jacqueline Newmyer is President and CEO of the Long Term Strategy Group, a Cambridge, Mass.-based defense consultancy. She is also a Senior Fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute. Her main concerns have been the military expansion of China and Iran, but campaigns to undermine a robust U.S. response to these foreign developments are part of the problem. She noted that at Harvard there is much talk among American students and faculty about national decline, with many expressing the liberal view that it would be a good thing for the United States to give up its global leadership role and withdraw inward. In contrast, Chinese students at Harvard are encouraged by such talk, making them even prouder of their country’s rise and optimistic that China will replace America as world leader.

Newmyer noted that China is not the first foreign power to invest in cultural propaganda operations meant to mobilize opinion in sub-sectors of a target country’s population. She pointed out that Beijing is in many ways copying the model used by Saudi Arabia in funding mosques, Islamic schools, Middle East think tanks and academic studies programs in Western countries.

Brady was still the most explicit in the information she provided the commission, explaining, “The CCP has had a longstanding policy of utilising foreigners in its propaganda work. This is called ‘using foreign strength to promote China’ Historically, pro-CCP foreigners have been extremely useful in producing a wide range of propaganda materials, ranging from books, films and poetry, to public and private lobbying.”

The Communist Chinese lack the Islamist hijackers' faith, but both groups take the long view of history. They believe Beijing has a rightful role in world history and must displace the United States in order to fulfill it. As the experts proved, they are well aware of the tremendous foreign assets they possess, which may help them accomplish their goal.

I love it when you exhibit your moral clarity and equate China with Nazi Germany. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. Keep in touch. Kai Chen

Kai:

Its funny I got emails from left wing crazies calling me a "White Supremacist" and emails from a nutty German who was angry that I compared the China to the Nazi's (I guess he thought that reflected badly on the Nazi's) and called me "Zionist". Just can't please anyone. Greg

Thanks Greg for your message. I would wear that title from the left as a badge of honor. Too bad I am not white. That is why I function as a "race and nation traitor" (which I wear it as a badge of honor) to add voice of conscience to this debate. Best. Kai Chen

陈凯一语 Kai Chen's Words:

“不自由，毋宁死”还是“好死不如赖活着”? 你作为一个个体必须从这两个生活状态中做出抉择。选择中间道路只是自欺欺人。

奴隶与奴隶主共同创造、维持了一个奴役制度。当奴役制收到威胁与挑战的时候，往往奴隶们比奴隶主们会更为拼死地保卫这个奴役制度。

“Give me liberty or give me death" or "Enslaved living is better than death"? You as an individual must choose. There is no middle of the road. Not choosing is an ultimate form of self-deception.

Both slaves and masters have created and maintained the evil system of slavery. When such an evil system faces threats and challenges, more than most people expect, the slaves often are more adamant in defending such an evil system than the masters.

难道杨武不对自己的受害为奴负责吗？
Slaves Also are Responsible for Slavery

中共以匪治民岂有男人比杨武更勇敢？

【大纪元2011年11月11日讯】（大纪元记者李平综合报导）

近期，深圳宝安区发生联防队员暴力殴打、强奸居民事件，被侵害人的丈夫杨武目睹全过程，因害怕而未制止暴力行为。事件成为中国民众关注的焦点，不少人在网络上发表评论表示，无论是杨武的儒弱还是杨佳的抗争都是中国畸形制度下的产物；每个中国人都是杨武，因为中共以匪治民。

据德国之声报导，10月22日晚，中国深圳宝安区联防队员杨喜利手持钢管、警棍闯进王娟(化名)家中，一通乱砸，并对她毒打和强奸长达一个小时。而她的丈夫杨武(化名)则躲在几米外，不敢做声，眼睁睁看着妻子遭此横祸，一个小时后才悄悄报警。事后，有媒体记者采访杨武时指责他“太懦弱”，另外一大批中国民众将杨武称之为窝囊废。

杨武、杨佳都是畸形制度下的产物

强奸等恶性案件在中国屡有发生，作案者不仅有一般人，甚至还有警察，就在去年10月15日，浙江温岭就曾出现过警察强奸卖淫女的丑闻。强奸案因为太多，所以一般无法成为公共事件，此次发生在深圳的这起强奸案，之所以能成为国内舆论关注的焦点，不是因为强奸案本身，而是因为此案中被强奸者丈夫的表现。

报导称，大多数人都会认为杨武懦弱，不配为男子汉。但在媒体的报导中，杨喜利手持钢管、警棍的细节，只要设身处地想一想，就会觉得杨武的表现情有可原。因为中国大陆制度的作用，中国社会已经日显畸形，在这里，很多人并不具备独立思维和基本的明辨是非能力，所以，在很多案件发生后会出现正反双方水火不容的景象。

事发后，民间有言：“同一个中国，不同的杨武和杨佳”。大家知道，在2008年7月1日，28岁的北京青年杨佳闯入上海市闸北区政法办公大楼，持刀袭击9名警察和1名保安，导致6名警察死亡。3个月后，杨佳被判故意杀人罪，在上海执行死刑。中共当局为了封嘴，把最重要的证人、杨佳的母亲王静梅送到公安部治下的安康精神病院，还改名为刘亚玲。

杨佳袭警案由于司法过程缺少透明性和公正性，当时受到来自各界，包括西方社会的质疑和指责。而“壮士杨佳”的名言：“你不给我一个说法，我就给你一个说法”流传至今。

虽然杨佳事件的背后，有太多的复杂背景，以及公权力对普通公民权利的侵害，但民间对杨佳和杨武的态度并非一个正常社会所应有的理性态度。应该思索的是在一个极权社会，人们的价值观和性格为什么会扭曲，为什么会产生杨佳和杨武？

百姓评论：中共以匪治民每个人都是杨武

杨武案持续发酵，成为网络上的热门话题，从大陆媒体对陈光诚、艾未未事件等公共事件的态度以及小悦悦事件中司机的狠毒和路人的冷漠来看，比杨武坚强的男人并不多，在基本人权都无法保障的今天，除了那些敢于跟黑恶势力抗争的人之外，其他人都是“窝囊废”。

中国民众肖勇表示：“我认为有85%以上的中国人是杨武，杨武面对的是妻子被奸不敢吭声，而我们又何尝不是一样？我们面对三聚氰胺、汶川地震、动车事故、强拆强征、计划生育迫害、疫苗受害儿童、陈光诚一家自由被剥夺时，又有几个人站出来对强权说不了呢？别说事不关己的话，这些事都和我们每一个人息息相关！”

民众@ranyunfei：“懦弱不可耻，爱上懦弱比较可耻，爱上懦弱将其合理化是耻上加耻，爱上懦弱并鄙视那些要保住做人底线的反抗者很可耻。做人质被绑架不可耻，爱上绑架者比较可耻，爱上绑架者并为自己的懦弱开脱耻上加耻，爱上绑架者且视那些不屈的反抗者为怪物很可耻。这与制度有关，但决定者还是人。”

民众@qiumazha：“勇敢是杨佳的墓志铭；懦弱是杨武的准活证。无论你选择哪一个，都逃不脱被镇压的命——不是被恶法枪毙，就是被口水溺死。这就是中国的现实。”

民众Suyutong：“同样的天朝，不一样的杨佳和杨武，杨佳牺牲三周年纪念日，11月26日，你不给我一个说法，我就给你一个说法。”

民众@kunlunfeng：“‘上帝亦救不了不自救之人。’仅以此语送给既同情杨武，又理解杨大侠的人们。中庸与矜持是你们的美德，但美德之人少有不装逼的，因为死亡本身就不是一件矜持的事情。”

民众@shenzhen_litie：“看看杨武的事情，看看小悦悦事件，就应该知道几年前附图文字中那段话‘这说明人们不敢站出来，已不是道德问题，这已是一种特定牢笼下形成的文化。不要再对其他人发难，觉得正确就自己站出来！’”

民众@staciezy：“官方回应称施暴的联防队员为临时工，你们敢不敢有点新藉口啊？干脆把中国那7千万全认证为临时工得了，免得每次都要说一次费事！”

民众@MyDF：“深圳联防队员打砸强奸一案衍生新鲜词汇：以匪治民。”

http://www.ntdtv.com/xtr/gb/2011/11/10/atext615478.html.-【禁闻】法院代官方拒绝六四难属索赔申诉.html

【新唐人2011年11月10日讯】

四川省高级人民法院，正式回复六四死难者家属唐德英，表示不会对唐德英儿子周国聪死于六四事件一事，进行任何国家赔偿。外界指出，这是中共当局首次以官方名义，拒绝六四死难者家属的赔偿申请。因发布周国聪狱中照片，在2000年被捕入狱的《六四天网》负责人黄琦表示，他们目前正联系一些人权律师，义务为唐德英进行法律的诉讼，向当局提出起诉。

唐德英女士是在今年早些时候向法院提交赔偿申请，当局拖延了四个多月才予以答复。四川省高级人民法院11月8号明确拒绝唐德英，不会对六四死难者进行任何国家赔偿。

当年的六四学生表示，因为六四不是一个个人的问题，它是属于中共在政治上，牵扯追究历史方面相当大的一个事件，中共不会轻易的让步。

六四学生：“中共为什么不会轻易的在六四上让步呢？因为六四被平反的话，很可能跟着法轮功啊！反右啊！这些都牵扯要平反，共产党执政合法性就不存在了。所以，它（共产党）为了维护它的统治，不会轻易的平反。”

《六四天网》负责人黄琦曾报导过，周国聪是1989年政治风波的众多死难者之一。 1989年6月6号，周国聪在成都天府广场被抓到成都市宁夏街派出所内，年仅15岁。据可靠的消息和图片证明，他是在看守所内被打死。之后，当局并没有通知他的母亲唐德英，就把孩子火化了。

为了查清周国聪的死因，追究有关人员的刑事责任，赔偿经济损失。唐德英进行了持续20多年的上访维权。但是，从成都市到四川省，乃至于公安部，国务院信访办，全国人大等部门，都没有对周国聪事件作出正面和积极回答。直到2006年，政府给她7万元钱困难补助的书面报告，但唐德英没有接受。

〝六四〞赔偿案同时也引起美国政府的高度关注。前中国男篮国家队队员、现反共自由活动家陈凯认为，这位母亲坚持20年上诉，是一个非常重要的行为标志，是在光天化日之下暴露中共当时的罪行。

陈凯：“如果所有在天安们的受害者的家属们，能够同时出来，起诉当时的中共政府非法开枪，你在中国的法院，就不得不承认这件事情真实发生。虽然它们政府拒绝了这件事情，拒绝赔偿，或者拒绝怎么样，但是拒绝的前提使他们承认这件事情发生了，这个本身对中共就是最大的揭露。”

陈凯表示，自从六四以后，中共政府就有步骤的、有计划的在人们的记忆中抹杀人们对六四的记忆，所以中共拒绝追究事实真相，给予赔偿；拒绝作出一个交待，这就是它一贯的专制。

今年〝六四〞前夕，〝天安门母亲〞发表《不容亵渎〝六四〞亡灵、不容损害〝六四〞难属的人格尊严》公开信。公开信中首度披露公安人员在今年先后3次找到一名〝六四死难家属〞私下沟通，不谈真相和责任，只谈金钱赔偿问题，表示只针对个人，不涉及群体，不要让〝天安门母亲〞丁子霖知道等，当局的做法遭到〝天安门母亲〞们的抵制。她们表示，不要以为钱可以解决一切问题。

〝天安门母亲〞运动，是前中国人民大学哲学系副教授丁子霖等人发起，由一群〝六四事件〞中遇害者的母亲组成，从2000年年初开始，目前共有127名成员。这个组织及成员经常受到当局骚挠，公开悼念〝六四〞遇害亲人的活动也常遭禁止。

民族主义的丑陋与邪恶
The Evil of Nationalism (China's "People Racism")

************************************

By Kai Chen 陈凯 (Reprint 9/30/2011)

I have been thinking about this topic for a long time and I think it is time for me to say something about "Nationalism" - "民族主义"(People Racism as it is called in China)。

民族主义(People Racism): There is no such term in English. The closest to it is "Nationalism", based on the term Nation. But Nation means 国家。 Nationalism should mean "国家主义”。民族 is a Chinese invention which means "People Race", aimed at legitimizing the Chinese regime which governs a country composed of many racial/ethnic groups.

“种族主义” (Racism), has been rejected world-wide and therefore has a bad name. So the Chinese decide to put a term "people' in it so it sounds better, just as everything in a Communist nation has a title "people" in it, ie. People's Republic, People's Daily, People's Congress, etc.

"民" (people), has long become a value laden term in China's communist regime. No matter what, everything that has a "people" above it must be good and right. So by this logic, putting a "people" before "racism" makes "Racism" sound legitimate. Using "民”to suppress "人“ (Using people to suppress humans), "以民压人", has long been a Chinese tradition. And using "people" combined with "race" is even more effective to suppress humanity in China.

All the Chinese morals and ethics stops at the border of China, all the righteousness of Chinese people somehow starts with their skin color (race) and their culture (people). I have never seen a passionate Chinese with individual dignity and integrity. I have forever seen paranoid and pathelogical Chinese when they see their National Flag and hear their National Anthem.

Many of my so called anti-communist friends and colleagues somehow all sided with the Communist regime when the matters such as the Hainai "airplane collision incident", the US mistakenly bombing the Chinese embassy, the matter of Japan joining the UN security council, demanding Japanese apology... etc. arise. Somehow they are all too willing to act as "义和团“，Boxers in the 19th century, though they hate the regime, they are willing to support it when facing a foreign country and foreigners in general. I have broken off with quite a few of my so called "friends" for I have failed to see that there is a common ground of humanity and decency between us.

The pathology extends to the degree that the Chinese are willing to tolerate Mao and the Communist regime when they have killed 80 million Chinese. Because of fear and a twisted moral code, the Chinese are invariably turn a blind eye to the atrocities and murderous mayhem committed by the Chinese government and regimes. They just bury their heads in the sand when the atrocity happens, playing their Majiang, exercising with their "Taichi", drinking their tea and hiding in their huts... But when there is some done by a foreigner to a Chinese, such as a mistreatment of a border patrol officer in Canada over a misunderstanding by a Chinese tourist, or some Japanese schools omit the Japanese war crimes.., the Chinese turn berserc, and they somehow are outraged to see a neighbor's kid pissing on their fence but keep their silence when their parents are raping their children, or committed family incest, or murdering their own for nothing.

The pathology of the Chinese "民族主义”, Chinese Nationalism, is now the main reason why the Communist regime stays in power. Communism itself has become somehow irrelevent even in a Communist society. It is this pathological "Nationalism" and a mysterious "Socialism" now that sustain China and the Chinese Communist Party. Putting nationalism and socialism together, you get "National Socialism" - "Nazism". This is exactly what is happening now, much as what was happening during WWII in Germany. A Nationalist ferver combined with Socialism doctrine gave rise to Hitler and Racist Nazi Regime.

This is exactly what is happening now in the Chinese Psyche and mindset. Chinese Nationalism has long become the shield and foundation for the post Mao communist regime. Dominating Asians and Asia, conquering Taiwan, challenging America and Western democracies and institutions, enslaving their own population's mind and heart, prolonging the life of a repressive regime, propagating a Chinese style Nazism based on the despotic Chinese tradition and culture, corrupting the souls and minds of millions of Chinese and making them nothing but the tools, soldiers, slaves and sacrifices on the Communist "Big Family's Altar"..., have all become the National agenda for the Chinese regime.

Ironically, the Chinese, due to their language, culture, social and political up-bringings, are blind to where they are heading. In their own mind, they are building a "Great Chinese Nation". They equate "China rising" with "Evil rising", for they have no moral absolute. Everything is relative to them, relative to Power, no matter if it is morality, value, culture, nation, human beings, life, truth, liberty, justice... The Chinese see it all in a relative term. Only "power" is absolute and they believe so: "Whoever wins is the King. Whoever loses are the bandits." The Chinese believe the world is revolving around only one thing "Absolute Power of the Collective over the Individuals" and "Absolute Power of the Strong over the Weak". This is their moral foundation. In this world, only "Them vs. Us", "Strong vs. Weak", "China vs. Foreigners" exist as their moral doctrine.

Trampling on individuals, on individual freedom and rights, on individual interests and happiness is considered legitimate all in the name of perserving the "Chinese Nation", the Chinese culture, the Chinese "people race" "民族“. Everyone of the Chinese is nothing and in jeopody of being sacrificed against his or her will, for "民族” is the only dictator to judge their worth and decide their fate. And the Chinese culture has been established to educate and propagate this "民族主义“so everyone should be willing to sacrifice their lives for this Nation, this Culture, this Tradition, this Authority, this Collective. The narcotics of Chinese "民族主义”has been purified for thousands of years, and its potency is unprecedented.

Even in this forum, I have witnessed and sensed tremondous effect of "Nationalist Narcotics" and its poisonous effect. People are unwilling and unable to judge what is right and wrong, good and evil, truth or falsehood by themselves, by their own individual conscience, by their own individual values. They tie themselves on the war-machine of Chinese Nation hijacked perpetually by Chinese despotism, so they can feel a little sense of moral certainty. As individuals, their lives somehow have no meaning, but as Chinese, they will always be proud. Pity.

千万不要走入中国式教育的歧途 Lessons From China And Singapore

China's Elementary School Pressure 中国教育制度中的非人化

Singapore and China are terrible models of education for any nation that aspires to remain a pluralistic democracy.

陈凯一语 Kai Chen's Words：

中国式“记忆填鸭灌尿盆”的教育是孔儒的为专制制造奴隶工具的基点组成环节。奥巴马及美左对这种教育模式的青睐是不足为怪的。 “人与个体只是政府与强权的工具”是中共党奴朝与美左共通的邪恶病态的哲学基点。削弱中式教育与中文的病态影响是所有热爱自由的人们应努力而为的，不是相反。 “孔学院”与“孔学堂”正是中共党奴朝散布其奴役哲学的理想场所。

The perverse educational system in China and Singapore is based upon the very premise of Oriental Despotism - individual human beings are nothing but the tools and slaves of those in power and the government. Obama and people like him in America admire such an educational system as China's, for they think like the Chinese despots. The truth is a perverse educational system (including the influence of the Chinese character-based syllabic language) like China's or Singapore's is what we as freedom-loving people should do everything we can to avoid and to diminish, not the opposite. Confucius Institutes and Classrooms by the Chinese communist regime are exactly the ideal evil instruments to enlave human mind.

Lessons From China And Singapore
千万不要走入中国式教育的歧途

by Martha C. Nussbaum

Singapore and China are terrible models of education for any nation that aspires to remain a pluralistic democracy.

July 1, 2010 Martha C. Nussbaum is professor of law and philosophy at the University of Chicago. She is the author, most recently, of From Disgust to Humanity: Sexual Orientation and the Constitution.

American leaders, impressed by the economic success of Singapore and China, frequently sound envious when talking about those countries' educational systems. President Obama, for example, invoked Singapore in a March 2009 speech, saying that educators there "are spending less time teaching things that don't matter, and more time teaching things that do. They are preparing their students not only for high school or college, but for a career. We are not." New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof regularly praises China, writing (on the eve of the Beijing Olympics) that "today, it's the athletic surge that dazzles us, but China will leave a similar outsize footprint in the arts, in business, in science, in education" — implying his strong approval of China's educational practices, even in an article in which he decries the Chinese government's ferocious opposition to political dissent. But Obama and Kristof and all the other U.S. proponents of Singapore and China's educational systems apparently aren't thinking very hard about the relationship of those policies to democratic debate and democratic autonomy. Indeed, they are glorifying that which does not deserve praise.

What do educators in Singapore and China do? By their own internal accounts, they do a great deal of rote learning and "teaching to the test." Even if our sole goal was to produce students who would contribute maximally to national economic growth — the primary, avowed goal of education in Singapore and China — we should reject their strategies, just as they themselves have rejected them. In recent years, both nations have conducted major educational reforms, concluding that a successful economy requires nourishing analytical abilities, active problem-solving, and the imagination required for innovation. In other words, neither country has adopted a broader conception of education's goal, but both have realized that even that narrow goal of economic enrichment is not well served by a system focused on rote learning. In 2001, the Chinese Ministry of Education proposed a "New Curriculum" that is supposed to "[c]hange the overemphasis on … rote memorization and mechanical drill. Promote instead students' active participation, their desire to investigate, and eagerness … to analyze and solve problems."

Singapore, similarly, reformed its education policy in 2003 and 2004, allegedly moving away from rote learning toward a more "child-centered" approach in which children are understood as "proactive agents." Rejecting "repetitious exercises and worksheets," the reformed curriculum conceives of teachers as "co-learners with their students, instead of providers of solutions." It emphasizes both analytical ability and "aesthetics and creative expression, environmental awareness … and self and social awareness." The language used in both of these reforms harks back to the ideas of the great progressive educators John Dewey and Rabindranath Tagore, both of whom visited China, and both of whom once had considerable influence throughout East Asia. Singapore and China are trying to move toward open-ended progressive education that cultivates student creativity — just as we seem to be moving away, with the increasing emphasis on teaching to the test that has been the result of No Child Left Behind.

Observers of current practices in both Singapore and China conclude that the reforms have not really been implemented. Teacher pay is still linked to test scores, and thus the incentive structure to effectuate real change is lacking. In general, it's a lot easier to move toward rote learning than to move away from it, since teaching of the sort Dewey and Tagore recommended requires resourcefulness and perception, and it is always easier to follow a formula.

Moreover, the reforms are cabined by these authoritarian nations' fear of true critical freedom. In Singapore, nobody even attempts to use the new techniques when teaching about politics and contemporary problems. "Citizenship education" typically takes the form of analyzing a problem, proposing several possible solutions, and then demonstrating how the one chosen by government is the right one for Singapore. In universities, some instructors attempt a more genuinely open approach, but the government has a way of suing professors for libel if they criticize the government in class, and even a small number of high-profile cases chills debate. One professor of communications (who has since left Singapore) reported on a recent attempt to lead a discussion of the libel suits in her class: "I can feel the fear in the room. …You can cut it with a knife." Nor are foreign visitors immune: NYU's film school has been encouraged to set up a Singapore branch, but informed that films made in the program may not be shown outside the campus. China, needless to say, does not foster creative thinking or critical analysis when it comes to the political system.

It is time to take off the rose-colored glasses. Singapore and China are terrible models of education for any nation that aspires to remain a pluralistic democracy. They have not succeeded on their own business-oriented terms, and they have energetically suppressed imagination and analysis when it comes to the future of the nation and the tough choices that lie before it. If we want to turn to Asia for models, there are better ones to be found: Korea's humanistic liberal arts tradition, and the vision of Tagore and like-minded Indian educators. I'll take up their more enlightened approaches in my next column.

陈凯博客： www.kaichenblog.blogspot.com

陈凯一语：Kai Chen's Words:

最可悲与最可憎的事实是：中国“人”的灵魂与智慧从他们一生下来的时候就已经在极度黑暗与腐朽的祖坟中默默的死去, 因为他们就出生在那充满毒素与败坏的祖坟里。那些行尸走肉之人甚至并不察觉他们其实从生下来时就已经是一个灵智死亡的虚无。 ... 祖坟不扒，人无新生；祖坟不扒，“人”何自由？

The saddest and the most despicable fact is: In China when a person is born, his soul and mind start to die right away silently, for he is born into his ancestors' coffin, buried deep in the dark and decaying recess of a grave. Yet these zombies never realize that thoughout all their nihilistic lives, they have never had any soul and any mind.... Unless the rotten coffin has been smashed, the Chinese will never have a new birth and new life; unless the light of truth cuts through the darkness of the grave, the Chinese will never be set free.

中国人的灵智在祖坟中早夭
Dying Before Birth in Ancestors' Graves

“自由人”对抗“中国人”序列
"Free Beings" vs. "Chinese Series

By Kai Chen 陈凯 (Written 12/9/2006, Reprint 9/25/2011)

When I write to devastate the Chinese character-based syllabic language, the Chinese nihilistic culture and the Chinese despotic institutions, I know for sure most Chinese accuse me of digging my, and their ancestors' grave. And in China that is an unforgivable crime punishable by the worst torture imaginable. Yet I am not much concerned about the accusation or the hatred I have brought upon myself. I don't feel any guilt. I am only concerned about telling the truth as I see it. And the worst torture to me is never from others, but from my own conscience. And thus far, my conscience is clean.

As Christ's saying "only truth shall set you free", I am more concerned about being truthful and being free than being unpopular or being cursed to hell by some cultural drug addicts. Someone has to tell the Chinese that the emperor has never had any clothes on, never, no matter how many Chinese adore, in their drug-inflicted mind, all things Chinese. Someone has to let the Chinese know that they are only living in an illusion and fantasy, indulging themselves in dose after stronger dose of cultural and spiritual narcotics, not knowing their addiction is killing them and their children for the last two thousand years. They, the Chinese, have not waken up to this truth. But thank God I have waken up to it. And the awakening in my soul and mind is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I feel free. I am free, free at last.

I am free from my tortured past. I am free from my despotic and nihilistic culture. I am free from the chains and shackles of the Chinese character-based syllabic language. I am free from the insidious addiction of the spiritual narcotics my ancestors and the Chinese government forced upon me. I am free to explore a new life, a new world full of light, full of passion, full of love, full of creativity, full of joy and happiness, full of possibilities.

I want to share with those who still have a remnant of conscience left: Walk bravely forward, away from your ancestors' shackles, away from your false sense of security, away from your stupor, away from your addiction, away from all that oppress you from the day you were born. There is a whole new future, whole new world full of hope waiting for you ahead. Yet unless and until you free yourself from your ancestors' coffins and graves, unless and until you dig yourself out of the abyss, you will never reach it.

China's Morally Hollow Economy
中国-没有灵魂的成长

By Samuel Gregg on 10.28.11 @ 6:07AM

http://spectator.org/archives/2011/10/28/chinas-morally-hollow-economy

It's setting off open discussion and concern about Chinese realities that Communism and blind commitment to economic growth are powerless to address.

In recent weeks, China has been consumed by an unprecedented internal debate concerning a subject bound to make its Communist rulers nervous. At issue is the moral health of Chinese society.

Widespread Chinese discussion of this most un-politically correct subject was triggered by the October 21 death of a two-year old girl in the city of Foshan in Guangdong province. She died of internal injuries sustained after being run-over not once, but twice in a local market.

Accidents happen. But what made little Wang Yue's death a matter for intense public discussion was the fact that nearly 20 people simply walked by and ignored her plight as she lay bleeding in the gutter.

What, hundreds of Chinese websites, newspapers and even state media outlets are asking, does this say about Chinese society? Have Chinese people lost all sense of concern for others in the midst of the scramble for wealth unleashed by China's long march away from economic collectivism? One local official summarized the collective angst by stating: "We should look into the ugliness in ourselves with a dagger of conscience and bite the soul-searching bullet."

The problem, from the perspective of China's party-government-military elites, is such soul-searching may lead increasing numbers of Chinese to conclude that the circumstances surrounding Wang Yue's death are symptomatic of deeper public morality problems confronting China, some of which could significantly impede its economic development.

One such challenge is widespread corruption. By definition, corruption doesn't easily lend itself to close study. Its perpetrators are rarely interested in anyone studying their activities. Few question, however, that there's a high correlation between corruption and widespread and direct government involvement in the economy. The more regulations and "state-business" partnerships you have (and China has millions of the former and thousands of the latter), the greater the opportunities for government cadres to extract their personal pound of flesh as the price of doing business.

Back in 2007, for example, a Carnegie Foundation study of China reported that approximately "10 percent of government spending, contracts, and transactions is estimated to be used as kickbacks and bribes, or simply stolen." The situation has since become even worse. In late 2009, for example, China's state anti-corruption watchdog admitted that 106,000 officials had already been found guilty of corruption that year -- an increase of 2.5 percent from 2008.

From an economic standpoint, high corruption levels are a powerful disincentive for foreign investment. And if corruption grows to sufficient levels in China, there's a strong possibility it may start cancelling-out the attraction of the lower labor costs that are one of the biggest magnets for foreign investment in China.

The ethical predicaments corroding China's economy, however, go beyond everyday corruption. They also touch on China's willingness to tell the truth about what's really going on in the Chinese economy.

While hardly anyone questions China's economy is growing, doubts are continually expressed concerning the veracity of its growth figures -- including by some members of China's elite. In 2010, for instance, Wikileaks revealed that China's present Vice Premier Li Keqiang had expressed little confidence in his own country's GDP numbers during a 2007 conversation with the American ambassador.

The causes for such uncertainty are several. But one that has consistently plagued China since the 1980s has been outright fudging and lying on production and growth numbers by local officials eager for political advancement.

Why does this matter? It's important because domestic and foreign businesses need reliable data if they're going to be able to make prudent investments. Conversely, misleading GDP data helps generate a cycle of expectations, risk-assessment, investments, production and exports that is built on lies. And if the falsehoods are big and systematic enough, they will severely undermine business confidence and leave a legacy of distrust of China among foreign investors and international markets.

Many members of China's Communist party elite -- but especially its younger set -- are very conscious of these problems. Their concerns were vented in an unprecedented fashion at an informal October 6 meeting held at the China World Trade Centre which gathered together the children of those party leaders who ended the anarchical insanity associated with the "Gang of Four" 35 years ago.

Instead of being a gathering during which preparations were supposed to be made for next year's Party Congress, young apparatchik after young apparatchik stood up and slammed the state of Chinese society. Some spoke of the "rapid decline of moral standards." Others referred to "rampant corruption." Still more expressed their disgust at the perks enjoyed by party and government officials. One well-connected cadre even insisted: "The Communist Party is like a surgeon who has cancer.… It can't remove the tumor by itself, it needs help from others, but without help it can't survive for long."

And herein lies the dilemma for those members of China's elites who are aware of the threat that widespread corruption, nepotism, and all the usual phenomena associated with one-party states represent to China's economic and political future. The ideology that still (at least theoretically) justifies their leading place in society and politics -- i.e., Communism -- has literally nothing to offer by way of serious moral counsel.

Communism is, after all, based on a materialist conception of life, and materialism can't generate any coherent ethic, beyond recourse to appeals to speeding up the so-called "dialectics of history" or the mailed fist of raw power. That's why Marxists typically dismiss concerns for objective morality as "bourgeois false consciousness."

Nor does the other force that increasingly serves to legitimize the rule of China's elites -- old-fashioned nationalism -- have much to offer by way of moral guidance. Indeed, nationalist regimes are invariably associated with widespread corruption because of their propensity to meddle widely and deeply in every aspect of economic life.

Either way, if China's rulers are going to confront some of the looming moral problems threatening to compromise China's economic progress (not to mention the present elite's power-monopoly), then they need to find some alternatives -- and quickly. Revolutions have, after all, started on far less.

从没有人知道是谁把一只鹰卵放到了鸡巢里的。

当雏鹰被孵化出来的时候，她在蹦蹦跳跳的雏鸡群中艰难地移动中，勉强获取她生命的必需。与其他雏鸡不同，她的眼睛总是常常看着天：她的眼前总是晃动着一个盘旋翱翔的影子。她自己也不确定那是幻觉想象还是真实存在，是一个幽灵还是一个真神的造物。

“你看什么呢？” 短视的小白鸡嘲弄着她。 “天上除了云、雨、风、闪电、雷鸣，什么都没有。我们必需的东西都在地上呀。你看：这儿有草籽、小虫、蚯蚓，还有农夫在食槽里给我们的谷物。你的眼睛应该往地上看。一切你想要的就在你的身边。”

雏鹰没说话。她的锐利的鹰的目光盯在天上那个盘旋翱翔的影子。

“是呀。” 勤劳的小黄鸡用爪子飞快地扒着身下的土，并用嘴轻快地在土中挑出草籽，谷粒和小虫，津津有味地品尝着各种食品的滋味。 “你看，地上的食物真多。在这些食物中我能体验到幸福与快乐。”

雏鹰没说话。她的敏感的耳朵正听着那风的呼叫与海的咆哮。

“你怎么不说话？你聋了还是哑了？” 勇敢的小黑鸡挺着自己红红的冠子，一边与另一只小雄鸡搏斗打架，一边扭着他的脖子嘲弄着雏鹰。 “看你就不顺眼：你的嘴是那么丑，像个钩子。你的羽毛是那么硬，那么粗，碰到谁谁都会疼。你的眼睛是那么尖利，一下就看到其他鸡的心底。谁见你谁都躲着走。你不会有朋友与知音的。你真可怜。你会永远寂寞孤独的。”

雏鹰没说话。她的心在激烈地跳荡着。她的血在脉中奔涌。她对天空的激情逐渐将鸡群们所绝不可能察觉的力量汇集到她的翅膀中、、、。

农夫来了。他将谷物倒在鸡槽中。鸡群一拥而上，厮打着，争抢着，吼叫着，踩踏着其他的鸡，吞咽着那槽中的食物。

雏鹰没有动。她静静地站在地上。她的头高傲地仰视着天空。她的尖锐的视觉与不倦的搜寻终于使她清晰地看到了那天边翱翔的影子：他盘旋在蓝天上，出没在云朵中，随着气流的波动而起伏翱翔，吸允着太阳的能量，俯视着地面上的一切。他的嘴和她的一样锋利。他的羽毛和她的一样坚硬。他的眼睛和她的一样清纯而不妥协。她看到了他的灵魂。她看到了她自己。

突然间，那云朵中的精灵发出了一声撕裂长空的尖叫。地上的鸡群被那声尖利的嘶喊震惊，吓得四下奔逃，躲入鸡棚灌木丛中。只有雏鹰没有恐慌。她的心被那声撕裂长空的尖叫震撼了。她终于懂得了她自己的真实存在。她终于懂得了她是一只雌鹰，她根本就从不属于这充满污秽肮脏的鸡棚与那低下的，虚无的，被农夫喂养与被农夫宰割的鸡的生活。她终于懂得了那撕裂奴性灵魂的，来自天空宇宙的自由的呐喊是只为她而发出的，呼唤着她张开她强有力的双翅飞向长空，飞向自由，飞向上苍，飞向他的怀抱。

雏鹰挺起她那高傲的头，展开她那矫健的双翅，张开她那尖利的嘴，发出了她自己也难以相信的震撼长宇的呐喊。她拼力扑打着她的双翅，冲向天空，冲向风暴，冲向闪电，冲向太阳，冲向上苍，冲向她的本质，冲向她的爱、、。

一瞬间，地上的鸡群被雏鹰的起飞惊呆了。但他们马上就又恢复了原状 – 扒地，寻虫，啄米，争食，夺雌，排便，被屠、、、。毕竟，他们只是些在污秽中与同伴夺食与在农夫的喂养、取蛋、屠宰中寻找安逸与满足的鸡。他们永远不会懂得鹰的追求与爱。

、、、长空中，在金色的阳光下，那两个自由的精灵在彼此的爱慕中，在自然的拥抱中，在欢乐的激情中，在向未知的进军与挑战中翱翔着、拼搏着、嘶叫着、召唤着那些在仍旧鸡群中的雏鹰们、、、。

Translation by Kai Chen 10/29/2011

------------------------------------------

No one knows who placed an eagle egg in a chicken's nest.

When the young eagle was first hatched, she was weak and had very hard time surviving among the fast moving baby chickens. Yet her eyes often stared at the sky, for no apparent reason: There was something in the sky - a soaring shadow in the winds under the sun, that attracted her attention. However, she was not quite sure whether it was real or just an illusion, whether it was just a specter or a true existence created by God.

"What are you looking for up there?" The near-sighted white chick derided her. "There is nothing up there besides clouds, rain, winds, lighting, thunders.... All we need is on the ground. You see: There is grass. There are seeds to eat. There are delicacies such as earthworms and bugs. There is also the guaranteed daily portions from our master - the farmer. Our eyes should be focused on the ground. Everything we need for happiness is on the ground."

The young eagle didn't speak. Her vision was getting sharper. The shape of that soaring shadow in the sky was getting clearer.

"That is so right." The very agile yellow chick agreed, using her feet in fast motion to dig out seeds, worms and bugs, savoring the delicious snacks. "You see: There are all kinds of food here in the dirt. They are so tasty. I am so satisfied and contented. Why don't you come and dig with us."

The young eagle didn't speak. Her ears started to hear the whistling winds, the thundering storms and the violently screaming seas.

"Why don't you talk at all, like all of us? Are you deaf or mute?" The brave little black chick, with his red crown standing straight up on his head, asked, fighting with another male chick over a morsel of food. "You are so weird and odd. You look ugly as well. Your beak is not straight like all of us. It is like a hook sticking out in front. Your feather is so thick and hard. Everyone avoids contacting you for fear of getting hurt. Your eyes, yes, especially your eyes, are so sharp and uncompromising. They poke deep into others' hearts. No one can hide from you. You will never have friends. You will be forever alone. I pity you."

The young eagle didn't speak. Her heart was pounding violently. Her blood was surging fast in her veins. Undetectably, she was gathering strength in her wings.

The farmer came. He poured chicken food into the feeding container. All the chickens went crazy, fighting for the space to get a bite of the free food. They screamed, beat upon each other, trampled onto each other, extending their necks to swallow whatever the farmer fed them, being afraid of getting less than others.

The young eagle didn't move. She stood quietly by the commotion. Her head was held high and mighty with an utmost dignity. She finally saw clearly the soaring shadow in the clouds: He was real. He was extending his giant wings, gliding with the winds, penetrating the clouds with confidence and ease. He absorbed the endless energy from the sun, watching and examining all occurrences on the ground.... His beak was as sharp as hers. His feather was as firm as hers. His eyes, yes, especially his eyes, was as pure and uncompromising as hers. She actually saw the image of herself. She was looking at her own soul.

All of a sudden, that proud specter in the lofty sky uttered an incredibly heart-shuttering, ear-piercing cry. The crowd of chicken was scattering from their feasts, panicked by the horrifying sound from the sky. They ran fast toward the nearest shelter, toward the bushes and chicken houses. Only the young eagle remained calm and composed. It was as though she had always expected the battle cry, like a soldier expecting the sound of the bugle. She finally realized her true identity, her true existence. She finally realized she was an eagle. She had never belonged to the chicken houses, to the dirt and filth on the ground, to the warmth, the comfort and meaninglessness of a chicken's life, to the misery, pain, indignity and unavoidable slaughter from the master... She finally understood the powerful calling from the sky: The soul-piercing scream from the universe was uttered only for her sake, yelling at her, tearing down all the doubts and fears from her heart, injecting immense energy into her wings, prompting her to extend her wings naturally to fly toward the sky, toward freedom, toward God, toward the embrace of his passionate love.

The young eagle raised her head, extended her wings, opened her mouth to cry out the passion for life. For the first time in her life, she heard her own incredibly gut-shuttering scream. She gathered her strength, awkwardly in the beginning, to flutter her immense wings to fly toward the sky, toward the clouds, toward the rain, the lighting and the thunder, toward the sun, toward her own soul, toward her own love.....

The chickens on the ground were stupefied by the young eagle's flight and her cry of freedom. They only glanced from the corner of their eyes at the soaring eagle with fear and trepidation. Yet soon they returned to their normal routine, digging, eating, gossiping, fighting, laying eggs, being slaughtered by their master.... After all, they were only chickens settling for a chicken's life. They could never understand an eagle's yearning and love.

..... Under the sun's golden rays, the two free souls were soaring above the sky, immersed in each other's joy and passion. In the firm embrace of their own nature, in joy and love, in the endless challenge of the unknown they had to face in the future, in the passionate anticipation of coming battles in life, the two eagles kept flying higher and farther, screaming to call all the young eagles among chickens to discover the true nature of their being. They would fly around the world, screaming, wakening up all the free souls, till the end of time.

中文的“个群不分”，“公私不分”的弊病我以在众多的文章中阐明过。但我仍常常在与被“中文心态”支配的人们交往时被他们的由于专制群体语言的污染而产生的种种表达而惊叹震惊不已。

最近我曾邀请一位有共同价值的好友到我在海边的寓所游览。加州中部海岸的美景使我们沉浸在对自然与生活美感的品味欣赏之中。像我在洛杉矶家街区散步时一样，我弯腰将一片地上的废纸片捡起来放到垃圾桶里。我的好友很为赞赏地感叹道：“你这举动真是‘公民意识’的体现”。我听后马上纠正了他的说法：“我捡起垃圾绝不是因为我有什么‘公民意识”。我只是出于我的“私人冲动”。我只是为了我自己的利益、我自己的享受、我自己视觉的更美好而去做这些。我从没有想到任何其他人的利益，尽管我的这个举动使所有的人受益。” 我可以感到他被我的这番话所震动。我们默默地继续散步，思考、、、。我能觉察到有一个极为重要的理念正由于这一件生活中的小插曲而进入我们的意识层中。我很久以来就确信这个关键的价值理念就是人们击垮中国古今专制心态，走向未来自由心态与价值文化的钥匙。

“公民”- Public People, 是基中文病态语言而产生的典型专制词汇。像我在‘公丑私美’，公恶私德’一文中指出的：在中国人的病态文化思维中，凡是“公”的与“民”的（政府的，皇帝的，国家的，上级的，多数的、、）就一定是正统的，道德的（伦理）与好的，凡是“私”的与“人”的（个体的，自我的，情感的，理性的、、）就一定是邪恶的，不道德的与坏的。今天在反共人士们的言论与争辩中，也都只有“国”与“党”的区分与争辩。 “人”与“个体”仍旧还没有进入人们的意识层与语言系统中来。人们仍在“爱国”与“爱党”的虚无命题中争论不休，将一个虚假的命题作为一个实质的命题而为此打得头破血流。但从没有人提过“爱人”、“爱自己”、“爱价值”（真实、正义、自由与尊严）。似乎“人”与“个体”是不值得一提的国家、民族与群体的附庸物，是一个可有可无的，瞬息即逝的虚无。无怪乎“杀人”与“吃人”一直是“中国人”迷恋的，由追求“宏大的虚无”而产生并传扬的“活死人”Zombies的惯态与自我认同。为了群体而压抑，残害与消灭个体是被所有中国的人们所接受的，理解的和期待的。逻辑的结论是：为了“国”、“党”、“群”、“家”、“族/祖”而否认、贬低、诋毁“人”的与“个体”的价值与利益成为了所有“中国人”共同追求与认同的“宏大虚无”的伪存在。

“公民”- Public People一词本应是一个多数概念。但在病态的中文语言里被应用在个体的表述上。 “个群不分”也就应运而生地被所有的中国人所接受并运用在自己的语言系统中，危害着人们的良知与理性的清晰。

“私人”- Private Person, 被中国的人们病态地认为是万恶之源。殊不知在中国的历史中从未出现过“私人”的概念。 “个体”也就此成为虚无。所以在中国“人”是不被当人看的。压抑、迫害，消灭一个个体，在中国是被人们认为是当然的，正常的，必然的与必要的。只要对大多数人有利，对“公家”有利，对“国家/党”有利，对“大家”有利，个体的被侵害又算得了什么呢？既然“天下是为公”的，那每一个人的个体利益与尊严就不足挂齿。从古至今，在中文文化的政体与心态中，“土地权”从来都是“公有”的，是属于皇帝的，政府的，人民的，国家的，民族的、、。今天在中国有“卖地权”的人们也都只能是政府的官员。当然今天在中国最容易与方便的赚钱途径就是“走官途”去搞一纸“卖地”的批文。上亿的钱财就会流到这些“公家”官员的口袋里。如果这种病态的所有权（土地/天下为公）被所有的“中国人”所接受，当国/党/政府为了“公家/国家”的利益来拆你的房子的时候，你又会大哭大叫着去“上访诉冤”，这不是精神紊乱/精神分裂又是什么呢？但至今我还没有看到一个人对公有的“土地权”（“天下为公”的謬谈）提出质疑与抗议。这难道不是一个自欺欺人的，只有无灵无智的人们才能进入的“自虐”“自残”的心态文化吗？

你究竟是一个“公民”（国人）- 一个属于国家、祖宗与民族的财产与工具，还是一个“私人” – 一个对自身的灵、智、体的健康与幸福承担全部责任的，主动的独立体与自由体？这是每一个想要摆脱中文专制文化心态的人首要发出的，对自我认同的必要先决的命题。我只希望每一个在中文系统中生活的个体用自身在每一刻所作出的选择与抉择不断地削弱、战胜专制“公民”Public People的心态，走入“私人”Private Person的，勇于承担道德责任的，自由与尊严的存在状态中去。只有“私人”、“私产”、“私有”、“隐私”的真实道德存在逐渐在人们中建立起来的时候，专制集权的“公”的暴虐才会在人们强大的“私”的冲击下崩溃与消亡。将你的手放在你的胸口上扪心问一问：你真是一个“私人”吗？！

继湖北省仙桃市六位八十高龄的老人倡议将天安门城楼的毛泽东像取下，换上孙中山的头像后，10月15号，云南昭通又有一批老干部公开发声支持，呼吁中南海撤换毛像。

云南昭通这7位老党员过去多是中共的负责人，有的曾经担任县委书记、纪委书记、县长。他们都经历了毛泽东执政时期的灾难。

他们在公开信中说，"毛泽东在建国后主政的二十七年间、倒行逆施、疯狂推进极左路线，通过整风反右运动，把3,178,400名正直的知识份子打成右派份子、许多人因不堪折磨死在狱中；制造三年粮荒，活活饿死城乡老百姓31,558,000多人；又背着党中央发动"文化大革命"动乱、整死了包括国家主席刘少奇等，一大批党和国家领导人在内的2千多万个鲜活生命......"。

公开信联名者吴之伯："毛泽东在我们建国前三十年执政的当中，独断专行，追求个人的名誉地位。他没有对我们中国做多少好事，反而做了很多错事。"

公开信联名者李德强："毛泽东是个品质相当恶劣的人，他在领导中国的年代里，中国人死了六千多万。把这样一个人物的像挂在这，是我们中国人民的耻辱，他没有这个资格。"

今年是辛亥革命百年纪念，中共官方高调"庆祝"，在天安门广场摆上了孙中山画像，意外引发了"孙中山热"，民众争相与"孙中山"合影拍照；湖北六位年近八十岁的老人向中共国务院及全国人大的上书，呼吁当局尊重全球华人心声，将在天安门城楼上的毛泽东像取下换上孙中山像。

原河北广播电台编辑朱欣欣指出，毛泽东的偶像对目前的中共来说有双重性质。

原河北广播电台编辑朱欣欣："如果中共不否定毛泽东，它就一直背负着历史的包袱，给中国人带来巨大的历史的灾难，它不彻底的清算，无法对历史对人民交代。一方面，中共打着毛泽东这个偶像的旗号，为它的现在的统治作为合法性来源，它不敢彻底否定他（毛泽东）。"

前国家篮球运动员、民主人权人士陈凯认为，尽管已经认识到毛的非法性，中共高层试图反毛的可能性却很小。

陈凯："所有中国的官员，是根据毛泽东的那个枪杆子里面出政权，杀人而合法上台的。现在中共高层人大部分是杀人犯。你从江泽民来说，不管对法轮功的迫害，杀人也好，这个胡锦涛，以前在西藏的时候杀人，那个时候也是非常非常厉害的。所以在中国，为什么它这个罪犯政权很难从毛泽东的阴影下走出来，因为他们整个的社会，是建立在毛这个枪杆子里面出政权这个概念上面的。"

大陆学者指出，孙中山的革命与毛泽东的共产革命南辕北辙，大陆的"孙中山热"，说明人们正在抛弃共产极权，向往民主，中共本来想作秀，却将自己陷于尴尬境地。

如果一个杀了8，000万无辜人们的屠夫魔鬼能被中国的人们瞻仰崇拜，他的魔像被印在所有的“人民币”票面上，如果上千的人们能在光天化日之下被政府的机枪射杀而无人承担与追究责任，一个两岁的小女孩儿被碾成肉饼又算得了什么？！像她这样在中国无声死亡的孩童与人们每天都有成千上万（难道你不知道“一胎制”是什么吗？）。有人谴责中国的虚无文化心态与暴虐的社会制度吗？！这就是一个垂死的文化，垂死的社会，垂死的“活死人”般的人群的写照。

If a butcher who killed 80 million innocent people can be worshipped on Tiananmen Square and his evil image printed on every bill of Chinese currency, if hundreds can be gunned down in open day light on Tiananmen Square in 1989 without anyone taking responsibility, what is the fuss that a two year old girl rolled over by a van?! Little children like her die by the thousands every day because of China's "One Child" policy. Do you hear one voice protesting against the Chinese regime?! I rest my case.

The girl's photo before the run-over 小女孩被轧前的照片

A disturbing video caught by surveillance cameras shows a 2-year-old girl in China laying in the street bleeding, a victim of a hit and run. Even more shocking is that the toddler was then ignored by at least 18 people, The Telegraph reports.

Video of the incident, which took place Oct. 13, shows pedestrians and vehicles passing by the toddler, named Yueyue, after she was run over outside her family's shop in the Chinese city of Foshan.
The graphic video shows the van driver slightly hesitate before running the girl over.

Not a single person stopped to help the child as she lay bloody on the narrow street. At least 18 people passed by on bikes, in vehicles, or on foot.

Finally, a female trash collector, Chen Xianmei, 58, lifts the girl up and asks people if anyone knows the girl.

The child's mother eventually arrived to claim her, saying the girl's name is Yueyue, The Telegraph reports.

Yueyue remains in critical condition, a nurse told the paper by phone. Earlier, doctors said she had suffered major head injuries and was breathing only with the assistance of a ventilator.

外电：车辗稚女无人理睬叹中国道德日下

【大纪元2011年10月18日讯】（大纪元记者张东光综合编译）
广东佛山市近日发生两辆车先后辗过一名年仅两岁的女童王悦悦的娇小身躯，但是十多名路人从她身边经过，视若无睹，在7分钟后，58岁的拾荒阿婆陈贤妹发现后，便将倒在血泊中的她移到路边，并四处呼救。这个令人震惊的视频被贴到优酷网上，浏览人次超过150万次，并引发了网友对现今中国人道德丧失的抨击。

美国CNN有线新闻网报导，视频显示，卡车司机发现辗到小女孩时，他将车子停了下来，但随后用后轮缓慢辗过她娇小的身躯。那小女孩一动也不动地躺在血泊中，许多经过的路人与脚踏车骑士却漠不关心。几分钟之后，另一辆卡车又辗过小女孩，一点也不减速。

英国《卫报》引述《上海日报》上周四(13日)报导说，这个小女孩被车撞后受伤，后来死在医院里，但其他的国营媒体则说，她处于重度昏迷状态。彭姓医师向《中国日报》透露，上周日(16日)她已被宣布脑死，随时都会死亡。他还说，她最佳的状态是成为植物人。

周一(17日)下午前，该视频也成为新浪微博浏览最多的视频，超过400万网友对此热烈讨论。许多人说，这太恐怖了，并指责说，善心人士往往会被指控为肇事者，而法官竟然也都支持这样的指控。有人则说，就连手上牵着一名小女孩的女性路人也都视若无睹，现在的道德水准太低下了。

小悦悦的父亲王持昌向CNN表示，周一(17日)下午他的女儿已住进广州市郊的一所军医院中。他说:“我很担心”，“我感到无助和气愤”，“如果有一个路人早一点停下来帮忙，这整件事情不会这么悲惨。”

《中国日报》宣称，那位停下来的女性路人是一个拾荒者，当她试图查看这位小女孩的身份时，但旁边的店家却提醒她不要多管闲事。

某位网民怒不可抑写道:“良心跑哪儿去啦?中国民众到底怎么了?”许多人则指责，只有那位教育与社会阶层最低的拾荒者停下脚步来帮忙，但其他人都视若无睹。

另位网友说，他对于这个“麻木不仁”的现象感到痛心，但他写道“你愿意将你全家的存款无限制地投入车祸赔偿金的漩涡中吗?你曾想过你全家可能失去幸福，只因你想要成为一个伟大的灵魂?”

58岁的拾荒阿婆陈贤妹形容当时情况说:“血从她的鼻子与嘴巴渗出来，我不了解为何没有人将她从街上抬走。”

某位网友写道:“这样的新闻每次都让我毛骨悚然”，“我们一度相信世界充满爱，政府也教导我们保持高水平的道德标准，但这个冰冷的现实只会让信念在我们的面前飞过。”

王持昌也说:“如果我们的社会持续这样，我小孩的惨剧不会是最后一次。”

许多网民将愤怒的矛头指向漠不关心的路人，并对社会道德的消逝感到痛心，有的网民则从拾荒者陈贤妹的举动看到一丝希望。一位网民说:“这位拾荒者可能从未想过，她其实比我们许多人还要‘富有’，”“她跟从了自己的良心，而这却是我们许多人所丧失的。”
最近几年的中国，在车祸紧急情况中协助伤患很具争议性。由于个人疏忽在车祸中受伤，许多老人为了支付昂贵的医疗费用，反而会指控那些好心在车祸现场帮助他们的路人，还要求他们赔偿。有人怀疑拾荒者陈贤妹是贪图美名来帮忙的，但她说:“当时我并没有想到什么，我只想要救救这个女孩。”

【看中国特约记者施萍采访报导】

美国洛杉矶华人，中国前篮球国家队员陈凯、郭树人通过网络发起销毁毛像行动。陈凯呼吁把今年十月一日订为"全球逐毛日"，号召各界响应撤除毛像、唤醒良知。8月13日记者采访了陈凯先生，他畅谈了本次行动的起因与意义。

自由与专制不能等同

在庆祝2007年（猪年）中国新年的时候，一些中国的所谓的艺术家们，在我们这个地方阿汉布拉市政厅举办了一个画展。我的一个朋友看了这个画展后很气愤，（你到我的网站上可以看到这幅画），他们把华盛顿的像和毛泽东的像挂在一起，一边挂两幅华盛顿像，一边挂两幅毛泽东像。似乎毛泽东是中国的起始人，毛泽东是中国的华盛顿一样，我马上给市政厅的主管打了个电话说，你们懂不懂你们在做什么，我要求你们把它拿下来！

我说你要不拿下来我就要做出举动。第二天我和我的朋友去的时候带了照相机和录像设备，我想把他的东西整个录下来做为一个记录，没想到在我到达之前这个市政府的主管已经把这个像拿下来了，也就是说他们自己已经感觉到这个事情是不对的，我只不过提醒了他们。通过我的抗议，我提醒他们：你们这样做在道德上是没有合法基点的，也就是在道德上是不合适的，你不能把华盛顿--这个为自由而战的伟人，跟毛泽东--这个为了专制和奴役，不惜牺牲千千万万无辜的生命--这样一个屠夫、这样一个罪恶累累的魔鬼来等同。
我不知当时这些画家为什么画这个东西，为什么会把华盛顿和毛泽东画在一起，就像张艺谋和李连杰演的所谓的《英雄》，歌颂这些专制的，杀人而立政的一种行为。似乎这样的行为在东方文化中是被接受的，好像不光被接受，还应受褒扬的，所以他们在电影里面都是褒扬这种行为。就是说，为了一个专制制度，为了一个权力，为了一个所谓的民族，为一个国家这样一个大的事业，死人是应该的，甚至为建立这样一个事业，杀人都没有任何道德上的考量。

这是和华盛顿所代表的自由精神在概念上是完全不同的。华盛顿为之奋斗的自由--每一个人的生命都是有价值的，那个价值是上帝所给你的，其他的人是不能碰的。你不能说，我的事业比你的事业更辉煌，我就可以把你杀掉，这种概念就是秦始皇，毛泽东；而且在中国专制文化生活下来的的大多数人，也都认同这种概念。

我到悉尼去参加奥运自由长跑的时候，旁边就有很多到悉尼旅游的中国人去悉尼参观悉尼奥运会的场址，我当时讲毛泽东杀害7千万人，我说中国共产党他们罪行累累，是不可以被饶恕的。我说完这些话，旁边那些中国到澳洲旅游的游客们，就在下面评论说，建立政权哪有不杀人的？建立政权哪有不死人的？他们认为只要不杀到我，杀别人都可以。这样一种专制的心态和文化，对我来说是非常不能容忍的，非常恶心的。

正义与邪恶的理念

后来我知道在市政厅画展画那幅画的那个人，他整个全家在中国的时候，文化大革命时受到迫害。如果一个受过迫害的人居然能够把华盛顿和毛泽东放在一起做为伟人在一块褒扬，我觉得这是典型的斯德哥尔摩症。就是说你成为了一个受虐狂。

也就是说，当你不知道任何其他的价值的时候，不知道其他自由价值的时候，你把专制的价值做为唯一褒扬的价值。因为你没见过其他东西，你也不追求其他东西，你认为这就是所谓东方和西方不同的地方。而不是说，一个是正义的，一个是邪恶的，这样的一种理念。所以大部分在中国，在网上骂我的言论，你都可以看到，他们在道德上是极度的混乱。也就是说，他们绝对不会把什么是不同和什么是邪恶分别开来。原因一个是洗脑，一个是长期的专制制度。

包括秦始皇（他和毛泽东有密切的联系），为什么在今天中国的中共不惜花重金去拍《秦始皇》这个剧，让张艺谋去拍秦始皇这个剧，李连杰去拍什么《英雄》，或者拍奥运会的开幕式，这些都跟专制是息息相关的。也就是说你如果承认秦始皇他的做法是可以的，为了统一可以不惜杀人，不惜焚书坑儒，不惜做这些事情的话，那么你也进入了一种专制的思维。你就不可能真正的反共，也就是说，你在今天说"我是反共的，你们所有这些人，我反共的事业比你们的都重要，那么你们也都可以为我来牺牲，因为我的事业比你重要。"这样就进入一种朝代循环的专制里面去了。

为什么《我的路》这个电视节目做得很好？它把我的人生总结出一点简单的道理告诉所有的中国人：每一个生命有他特殊的意义，是不能允许任何人践踏，杀害，侮辱，欺凌的。为什么这样呢？如果你认为每一个人，由于他是个体，他没有你的人那么多，因为你是皇帝，可以纠集几千万、几百万的军队，用枪杆子来要胁我，来胁迫我，让我去做我自己不情愿的事情，甚至杀害我，如果是这样一种概念的话，这个社会人数再多也是没有意义的。

所以我当时打电话给市政厅主管的时候，就是用这样一种口吻告诉这个主管市政厅事务的人，告诉他你要听从你自己的良知，你要听从你的良心，你的良心告诉你什么是对，什么是错，而不是，哎呀！我最好还是不要得罪这些中国人啊，他们后面有很多人哪，这些人与领事馆都是有关系的。但是这个美国人非常好。噢，这个是不对。不对就把它拿下来了。

领事馆把毛像千方百计地往外拿，百岁诞辰啊，什么毛泽东艺术展览啊，......拼命打出来，他打这个概念就是要给自己的政权立一个合法性。他也深知中国普通的民众是不认同它的合法性的，但是他会用在西方对它的政权的承认来威吓中国普通的民众以维持自己的政权。当中国的民众对他们的政权合法性有疑问时，他说，我为什么不合法，人家美国人都承认了。美国人都和我们搞乒乓外交，都吓得屁颠儿、屁颠儿的。如果在美国的主流政治文化里也进入一种道德混乱的心态，那么它对整个全世界自由事业是一个重大的打击。如果美国进入这样一个状态的话，他就把美国的立国之本忘掉了。

道德混乱之源头

毛泽东和共产党的罪行罄竹难书，你还数得过来吗？从共产党建立政权开始--土改，就是大肆杀人。你家里有两匹骡子，就被定为地主，就把你推出来杀掉了.... 这个斗争并不真是你有罪，而是他们借这个斗争组织所有的人让这些人恐惧它的政权，杀一儆百，杀鸡给猴看。中国共产党就是惯用这种伎俩。后来的朝鲜战争，就是用所谓的志愿军人海战术用人往上堆呀。死人无数，直到今天，中国的历史中没有记录当时中国志愿军在朝鲜战场上死多少？连个数字都没有！

每一个有名有姓的人死了，在中国的专制政权里是不被记载的！...它会把每一个人生命的价值全部抹杀，这是最阴险的，也是最难从中国人专制文化中、头脑里删除出去的东西，今天有这么多人到网上来骂我，都是出于这种心态。说共产党现在强大了，现在西方看得起我了，这就是它的功劳了。究竟多少人死掉，多少人遭受屈辱，都不是中国人在脑子里仔细思考的东西。这是一种非常败坏的文化现象。这就是为什么今天在打击共产党邪恶势力的努力之中，你会经常发现人们在道德领域中发生的一种道德混乱的情况，他们不分清楚什么是不同，什么是邪恶。

很简单。举个例子：不同，你用刀叉，我用筷子。这个是不同。因为目的都是要把饭放到嘴里面。这里面没有邪恶和正义之分。但是你吃的饭是有营养的，共产党给你的却是大烟，是鸦片，是白面儿......。这样就有一个质量的鉴别了。不能说美国给吃白面、大米，肉与共产党给吃的大麻、鸦片是一样的，反正都是吃吗，东方与西方不同吗。这个就是道德的混乱。

对人的伤害，对人的尊严的伤害，被看成是不同。而不把它看成是邪恶，这是中国整个专制文化在道德方面的腐败。直到今天，尤其是在中国最受害的这些人仍旧把共产党看作是能够让中国起飞的动力。什么神七上天、水坝、奥运会，......都认为共产党杀了几千万人，取得今天这样一种POWER--强权是值得的。为什么许多中国人走不出这样一种邪恶的心态？

中国的文化也是这样：她看到别人受害的时候，她不会站出来。她说只要没有害到我就可以。这种文化本身就是邪恶的。在社会中没有建立一个正义感。在西方有一句话：对一个人的不公正，就是对全人类的不公正。.如果你在一个社会里建立了这样一个道德概念的话，共产党就不可能站得住。

美国洛杉矶华人，中国前篮球国家队员陈凯、郭树人通过网络发起销毁毛像行动。陈凯呼吁把今年十月一日订为"全球逐毛日"，号召各界响应撤除毛像、唤醒良知。8月13日记者采访了陈凯先生，他畅谈了本次行动的起因与意义。

正与邪的较量

我再继续把那个（2007年）故事讲完：我到市政厅画展那儿又看到几幅其他邪恶的画：有幅画叫《猪年》，弄些红卫兵的袖章举著刀枪，举着笔、叉等东西，似乎张牙舞爪的在美国土地上宣扬专制文化的精神、暴力、以多压少这样一种邪恶。还有其他的画我都拍照下来了，将来都有记录，中国人的道德败坏到达什么样的程度。当时那个所谓的艺术家看到市政厅把他的画拿下来后说: "噢，这是对我们中国文化的不尊重。我们是中国人，你不能这样对我们。你没有经过我们同意就把画拿下来，我们生气了，我们要把所有的画全部搬走"。结果他们真的把所有的画全都搬走了。这件事情在美国闹的很大，当时《洛山矶时报》专门派了一位记者来跟踪这件事情，采访我。在报纸上都有。在整个美国，甚至在电台的talk show（访谈节目）中也有交流、对话。当时掀起了一个很大的风波。

我觉得这是很重要的一个概念，通过这件事情让人思考：什么是对或错。

当时这些所谓的艺术家们还想利用美国的司法制度去到法庭上告市政厅。也就是说你可以看到，中国所谓的开放并没有学到美国和西方的自由的价值和人类的尊严，他们学到了怎么利用在西方人们对自由、对尊严的尊重来持续地进行专制的渗透，他们学到了这些东西。直到今天在大陆的党校里、大专院校里面教的东西并不是美国的价值，教的是如何对付美国的价值。这个现象是非常邪恶的。

当时这个事情要闹大的时候，我听说，有一个小道消息说，中共的领事馆把这个事情压下去了。如果他们真正把这个事情告到法院去，这个事情真闹大的话，可能在美国就会掀起一个反毛的浪潮。中共的领事馆非常害怕，他知道在美国没有人吃毛泽东这一套，如果你把这个东西交给美国所有有良知的大众、美国人的话，人们会说：毛泽东简直是暴君，杀人狂。

他们把毛潜移黙化用艺术的形式，包括像尼克松纪念馆的毛铜像这样一种形式，悄悄地，好像用吸白面的方式，每天给你碗里加点儿白面儿....。他不是一下给加的，是慢性死亡。慢慢加，慢慢加，到你看到毛像时就麻木不仁了，他们是用这种形式腐蚀著美国的文化。而领事馆把此事压下来，这件事情就过去了。

强权建立的专制文化

这件事情虽然过去了，我从这件事情中意识到，毛像不只是中国的专制文化，不只是对专制心态的形成有这么大的作用，同时它对腐蚀整个全世界人的良知起到一个非常逆向的、非常邪恶、罪恶的作用。所以我只要看到毛像我不可能不反。所以在2008年的时候，Reason TV 与我做了个电视节目（在我的网站上可以看到），有8分钟。就讲古巴的独裁者切.格瓦拉。美国人穿他的T恤衫，不知道他是杀人狂，尤其在美国人们不了解这个东西，反而把他的形像（因为这个人长得好看）放在身上。因为这个人可以杀人，他有力量，有强权，所以把他放在身上，当个护身符一样。他用魔鬼来护身，也就是我把它叫作崇魔的时尚--崇拜魔鬼的时尚（http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPl9Go3hHDI）。那些人认为：我也知道他不是什么好人，但他有力量，他有强权，别人不敢动他。中国人反而不以为耻，反以为荣地认为这就是所谓的（胜者为王的）东方文化。看到这种情况我就开始了一个举动，我在这个节目中主要讲毛泽东的罪恶。

从土改开始就杀人，到后来包括反右，所谓百花齐放、百家争鸣。把人打成右派后下放，家属全都受到重大的牵连、迫害，全家人在众人面前抬不起头来，就业的机会，上学的机会都没有。杀的人，上吊的人，受不了这种污辱的人，在中国都没有记载，有多少人？怎么死的？在中国死人算什么！反右就死了很多。

反右以后毛泽东就肆无忌惮的开始用合作化，用公社化强迫所有的农民成为中共政权的奴隶。从苏联取得原子技术，大量向苏联白给粮食。因为苏联这是一个非常邪恶的政治制度，所以也根本不出粮食。毛泽东就把这些粮食送到斯大林的嘴里面，去讨好，为换取苏联的原子技术。这就是中共如何取得的原子技术的原因。最近有一个电影《是非》，就是拍摄在中国大陆的大饥荒年代致少有3,000万人丧生。不是没有粮食，而是中共强迫把粮食拿去送到苏联，去换取原子技术为中共的强权奠定基础。他要的就是不惜死。所以毛泽东在叫嚣战争的时候声称，我们要跟苏联、美国打仗的时候，我可以死一半的人，我们这还有３亿。那时中国是６亿人，他要牺牲中国的一半人来换取称霸世界。他公开的就这样讲。中国这些民众对他们来说就是他取得那些强权野心的工具，奴隶。这样的一种工具，这样的一种奴隶！

共产党从来没有把人做为一个人。 一个人有他的尊严，有他的自由，有他自己的选择。我在我的博客里面说过，我在中国打球打到最高的程度，所有人都羨慕我。但是我自己从来都没有感到有人把我作为一个人来看，我只不过是一个高级奴工。因为我在中国长到27，28 岁，没过一天陈凯的生日。我所过的生日都是毛泽东的生日，各种官方的生日。在这里面我们所有有尊严的人在他们眼里就是可有可无的奴隶。中国人如果看不到这点，如果今天中国人说现在我们吃的比以前好了，你吃的比以前好并没有改变你跟这个政权之间的关系，你以前是瘦猪现在是胖猪了。你任人宰割被人奴隶的这样一种性质从来没有改变。

大跃进期间3,000万人死亡，中共说是三年自然灾害。根本就是人祸！哪是什么自然灾害。在美国每年都有台风、涝灾、旱灾，从来没有在食物上有任何缺陷。甚至连印度都没出现过饥荒，印度那么穷的社会都没出现过饥荒。中国到最后饥荒到什么程度--家长吃自己的孩子，不忍心吃自己的孩子易子而食。这都是我在打球的时候队友讲的故事，他们在安徽亲眼见，亲耳听过的。这些都是罄竹难书的罪行。

还有很多的运动像三反、四清，有相当一部份无辜的人，他们在心理上、身体上受到伤害，根本就没有记录。然后一直到文化大革命。一直往前推进到出现89天安门事件，再往前迫害法轮功......。每一个阶段都有相当一部分人做牺牲品--为了稳固政权而建立的假想敌人。在每一个阶段都有，这就是专制政权性质所决定的。

所以在中国共产党执政以后，7千万人的死亡，你怎么能说它有所谓的有功有过呢？这个没有什么功过的概念。在中国什么三七开，四六开，这是一种邪恶的，道德混乱的专制文化的心态。它把你都杀了，都阉割掉了，把你的尊严整个都打掉了，你还在那给他讲什么功劳，这是什么功劳啊？！你死了几千万人了，你的家庭，你的父老全都死掉了，你还在这跟他讲什么功劳？！绝对的道德的混乱！如果中国人不在这方面把自己的道德情感调理清楚，什么是不同，什么是邪恶，什么是自由，什么是专制。而不是说什么："哦，你看以前吃窝头，现在吃白面了。" 把这些作为生活的最大需求。把在被专制奴役下多一条毯子，多一口饭，作为他整个生命的意义。这个是专制文化最腐败的地方，这也是专制当权者们尽量地用毛泽东的肖像，尽量地用共产党的强权，用枪杆子压进整个中国民众头脑里的专制文化。

专访特稿：“全球逐毛日”发起人陈凯（下）
Part III, Global Day to Denounce Mao

施萍　看中国　2009年08月16日【看中国特约记者施萍采访报导】

美国洛杉矶华人，中国前篮球国家队员陈凯、郭树人通过网络发起销毁毛像行动。陈凯呼吁把今年十月一日订为"全球逐毛日"，号召各界响应撤除毛像、唤醒良知。8月13日记者采访了陈凯先生，他畅谈了本次行动的起因与意义。

道德的试金石

为什么要把今年的"十•一"定为全球的逐毛日？而且不光今年的"十•一"，每一年的"十•一"，都要定为全球的逐毛日。在中共庆祝他们这个所谓共产党建立政权的日子，我们都要做出这样相应的一种行为告诉全世界：这个政权是不合法的！

它没有任何的道德基点，没有任何的道德合法性。在程序上不合法，没有选举。没有人同意要它（共产党）告诉我怎么做，我没有同意它。它为什么拿着枪杆子告诉我要怎么样？！这就说明它本身是不合法的。就是说我们把毛泽东这个邪恶的肖像打下来的时候，用它来告知全世界，告诉所有在中国没有经历过文化大革命，没有经历过这些共产党大规模杀害的年轻人，告诉他们，你应该在道德上建立一个标准，你怎么看毛泽东，是衡量你这个人有没有正义感的试金石。

这样一种专制的文化，因为它不光是共产党用强权、用枪杆子压住你，同时它也阉割了中国人民对自身自由的想法，对自身尊严的这样一种追求。它完全把人们阉割到这样一种程度。有人说，"是的。中国人是受压迫，但是你在美国......"。 你压迫美国人你试试？！"你有多少枪，有多少钱......"。我虽然一分钱都没有，我也绝对不让你骑在我脑袋上拉屎！

中国人要反省。共产党欺压人，大量杀害人，你是不是做出任何举动了呢？你有没有任何反抗呢？你有没有任何道德上的清醒呢？这也要经常去反省，在将来中国建设一个没有共产党的社会。要建立这样一种清醒的道德概念。

唤醒良知

那么打毛像这件事情，或者号召全世界"十•一"逐毛运动，全世界每年"十• 一"开展大规模的全球逐毛、排毛运动，每一年都要做。在中国现在没有可能，可以在海外搞。 每年去做这样事情的话，也就是说在中国政治文化里面注入一剂道德的清醒剂，使中国人开始苏醒。我挂一个横幅唤醒你沉睡的良知。良知是每个人生下来上帝给我们的，放在我们身体里面的。为什么在我们生活里，看到强权，威吓、利诱，我们就把我们的良知放弃了？我们自己是有责任的。

有很多在中国被强权欺压的那些人，甚至到中南海上访这些民众，他们都承认说，我就是没有这个地位，我要是有这地位，我也做同样的事情。这是大有人在，很多人都这样，我听得太多了！我都不知道该怎么跟他们讲。也就说当你已经把自己的良知整个的都泯灭了，把自己的道德观、正义感、人的尊严整个的泯灭了，你变成一个自己去利用别人或是让别人去利用你，这样一种是奴隶也是主子的心态。我也说过：梦想当主子的人都是甘心做奴隶的人。

在一个自由社会中，人们都是有尊严的。你不能随便地不经过人允许就威胁利诱人，在下面强迫人做这个事情或者利诱人做那个事情去，这都是不道德的。

所以说毛像本身就是中国整个专制政治文化的化身，也是残害所有中国人道德良知的、一个专制的结晶。它这个结晶不光是集中国专制之大成，同时也集全世界专制之大成。

你吸白面 - 它是把白面、鸦片都放在一块儿。每天让你吸这东西。吸完它这个道德鸦片、精神白面以后，它是不能营养你的身体的，但是它给你一种幻觉甚至比你吃饭的感觉还要好。吃饭本身那个营养进入你的身体是一种慢慢的过程，也就是说，在争取自由、争取幸福这样一条道路上是没有捷径好走的。每一个人都要付出他的代价。你去争取自由、争取幸福，你要有个道德标准在心里。我不能这样去欺骗别人，不能压迫别人。去说谎......。不能去搞些不道德事情。不在于你的地位怎样--我即使一分钱也没有，我也不能做这样的事！如果在中国每个人都有这种道德观，共产党末日很快就到了。
承担个体责任

但是这不是一天、两天建立起来的。但作为我个人来讲，把毛像的事件做为一个焦点告诉所有中国人：你如果真的想要有尊严，真的想要得到幸福，真的想要拥有真正的自由，一定要释出自己的良知和正义感。不要把自己物质上的东西看重。就说我比别人多一块手表、冰箱，把这些东西看作比你的生命重要。中国的视野里，繁荣富强、四个现代化成了这个社会的一种标准口号，把物质上的东西做为人们追求的目标，这是绝大的邪恶。

在美国你看："One nation, under God, indivisible , with liberty and justice for all." 也就说我们这个国家，我们这个社会在上帝的眼睛之下是不能分割的，去争取人类与个人的自由跟尊严。在美国的视野里从来没有提到什么繁荣富强，从来没有提到过这个现代化，那个现代化，你有几个大哥大，从来没有过。但是由于你追求这些价值，那些都是应运而来的。你根本不用去追求这些东西，你只要把每个人的自由都保证的话，每个人都有创造的能力，他都会有创造的价值。

当然了，我也在我的博客里面讲了：伟大的社会是个道德的社会。很多中国人说：中国是个伟大的社会、伟大的国家。不是的！因为你们没有道德观。你可以说它是个强大的国家，不能说是个伟大的国家。伟大是个道德的理念！

有人打电话到我家，我问他们：你为什么加入我，你为什么要跟我交谈? 我以为他们是要签名逐毛的。没想到是共产党那些人打电话来骂我的。他们是骂街，你不能跟骂街的讲道理。他们的脑子已经病了。他们在道德上已经做了选择了。每个人都有良知道德，上帝创造你的时候就给你放进去了。动物是没有道德观的，人是有的。动物会有为自己的种族延续的这样一种本能，但是它没有道德，只是保护自己后代的。道德观是完全人类的，在这方面我是很清楚的。

至于今天，打开EMAIL又来几个人骂我。哈哈，哈哈....，没关系，别担心我。 我知道我做这个事情击中了中共最重要的要害，因为我知道毛像从天安门拿走的那天，就是共产党倒台的一天。

在我脑子里是再清楚不过的，兴起全球抗毛逐毛。中国有那么多毛像你可以上去画叉的，拿鸡蛋去砸两下；你在100元钞票的毛脸上画叉，你一样可以花。用你自己的方式在良知里面，把毛这样专治文化的精髓从你生活中驱逐出去，那样我认为是非常有意义的事情。但是很奇怪，没有其他人来做（这件意义重大的事）? 看到毛像竟然不觉得恶心？你看到毛像大摇大摆坐在那儿，你可以走过去，不觉得有种恶心感? 你有没有那个胆量！我说如果这个世界上都是道德混乱的话，那就让我道德清醒点儿；如果这个世界上都是胆小鬼的话，那就让我勇敢点儿；如果这世界都是黑暗的话，那就把我自己变成一个火炬，照亮人们通向自由的旅程。

By Kai Chen 陈凯 (Written 1/28/2010, Reprint 10/13/2011)

陈凯博客： www.kaichenblog.blogspot.com

自古以来，中国的崇尚宏大（博大精深）虚无的人们就精心地炮制着逃避真实价值（真实、正义、自由、尊严）与真实的自知与自省的伪语言词汇： “天下兴亡，匹夫有责”、“修身齐家治国平天下”、“社稷”、“君臣父子”“民族”、“国家”、“大家”、“世界人民”、“中华”、“共和”、“和谐”、“繁荣昌盛”、“荣耻脸皮”、、、。举不胜举的宏大博大的虚无词汇充斥毒害着人的灵魂与头脑。谁越宏大、谁越虚无、谁越博大精深、谁越八股玄妙、谁越不可一世、、、，谁就越被中国的宦奴娼们永世赞颂。谁越“自阉忠君”地去“精忠报国”，谁就越“平凡伟大”而“永垂不朽”。谁越“伟光正”地去“杀人谋统一”，谁就越会被“代代相传”而“万寿无疆”、、、。

表达真实价值、概念的词汇无一不是从西方语言翻译来的。然而这些真实的概念一经中文也大都变成了泛义、反义与无义的表象游戏了。关于中文的弊病我已在“从文字笼罐到文字狱”一文中阐述过了。在此就不多叙。

你能相信一个连自己是谁、连自己都不知道自己在说什么、连自己的家人与自身幸福都不管不顾不关心的人能真的为“国”、为“民”、为“大家”、为真理、为正义、为自由、为尊严吗？ “大河有水小河满，大河无水小河干”的反逻辑专制谬论不是至今始终主宰着亿万灭灵贬智的中文词汇系统中的人吗？

“大禹治水，三过家门而不入”的古话是几乎所有中国的人们熟悉并引为是中国“民族道德精神”的典范的。殊不知这样的虚无宏大的伪道德行为在自由世界（西方）正常心态的人们中是要被讥讽与笑掉大牙的： “也许大禹在外面有二奶了。” 我的一位朋友曾用玩笑评论道。我不禁想起了华盛顿将军在独立战争一结束时所要做的第一件事：回家探望家人、装修房屋、静度庄园的私人生活。美国的人们是绝不会信任一个不顾自己家人、无视自身幸福的“为社稷、民族、国家、天下”的“无私”之人的。在美国的总统竞选中，人们会特别关注竞选人的心态、家庭的健康与个体的品质与真实历史。务实而贬虚、重价值而藐权力、褒真实而辍虚假是每一个自由社会必须建立的思维、行为与心理精神的特质。一个赤足简衣的木匠 -- 基督的精神为这样一个自由社会奠基了健康的灵魂基础：“只有真实才能使你自由。Only truth shall set you free.”

对比一下中国的人们与其专制文化的心态：所有的人都在用“为他人、为民族、为社稷、为国家”的宏大的虚无为自身的卑鄙行为、自身的胆怯与渺小、自身的被动不负责与受难找借口寻遁词。 “诉苦抱怨”成了中国人们习惯与迷恋的求同情、求怜悯、无奈绝望的求助手段与确定的个体行为方式。近代的共产专制又将中国古代专制的宏大虚无的词汇量翻了几番：“人民”、“世界大同”、“共产主义”、“阶级斗争”、“唯物唯心”、“法治人治”、、。数不胜数的博大精深的宏大虚无伪词汇加剧了中国古典专制中本来就充斥的“满嘴仁义道德，一肚子男盗女娼”的丑恶现象。今天中国语系中的人们很少有具有清晰逻辑思维与清晰道德准则的人。引经据典、数典念咒的祖宗奴与文化奴充斥着中文文化的地平线。我所接触的许多海外“反共人士们”也脱不掉这样的病态思维行为方式。他们一面高叫着反共，一面逃避着自由。自知、自省、自我完美、自身幸福、爱情家庭、子女教育、个人财经、、是这些自命高尚的中国（后共）未来新专制的主子们所要全力回避逃脱的。

一个生活的逃避者与旁观者不可能是一个真实的自由人。一个不关心自己心态健康、自己家庭成员幸福、自己生活的满足感的人是所有的人们都要警觉小心的危险的野心人物。毛泽东摈弃家人用宏大虚无的伪价值去满足自身的专制野心造成了七千万无辜生命的灭绝。中国的人们竟将此作为“伟大”为一个世界上最大的罪恶屠夫建庙立堂。（注：毛曾经亲自主持传播了许多宏大虚无的专制词汇如“万岁”等等。）今天中共党朝的专制者们正在沿袭所有中外专制者们的宏大虚无的巫术传统，将“崇族崇国崇民崇大崇统崇祖”而灭个体灭自由的病态毒素用像“孔子学院”式的中华“艾滋病原体”传播到世界上去毒害每一个人的灵智。可悲的是：那些本来就缺少个体认同而只有群体认同的人们由于自身的恐惧感（惧怕在宇宙中找不到自身的定位）在他们反共的思维与行为中自觉与不自觉地沿袭了充满毒素的病态心理：人身攻击、拉帮结伙、消灭异己、分类戴帽、用虚击实、造谣中伤、背后议论、取悦于人、重数而灭理、重名而灭灵、重利而灭尊、重群而灭个、重他而灭己、、就成为普遍的必然。

建立“个体”，“自我”，“自知”，“真实信仰”是中国的人们追求人生的真实价值的先决必须。我希望每一个“反中共党朝”的人士经常地自我反省询问：“我是不是正在用宏大的虚无逃避自由的责任与真实的价值呢？” 确实的，不断地自诲自问“我是谁？我在说什么？我在做什么？我想要什么？我的生命有何意义？我是否自由与幸福？”是个体推动世界向前演进的必经之路。

上当一次是骗子的罪过。再次上当则说明被骗者的病态愚蠢：中国人世世代代地在“找救星”与“被救星杀、抢、骗”中，被专制的鞭子“陀螺”似地抽转了两千年。难道中国的人们还不该反省自身的病态和愚蠢吗？难道中国的人们还要在高速旋转的“僵死不前”、“朝代循环”的幻觉中与“无神政府”的“大公无私”的偶像救星的搜寻中逃避自由与真实的价值、逃避自身的存在与个体道德责任吗？方向性的选择与选择的代价与责任是中国未来（共后）唯一的走向希望的自由之路。我愿以我奔向自由的选择与心历路程与你共勉共行。

中國的自由
The So-called Freedom in China

陈凯一语： Kai Chen's Words:

在中国，“自由”的内涵正与西方自由的内涵成反义：在西方，自由的内涵是“自由于其他人的干预/伤害”。在中国，“自由”则是“自由地去干预/伤害其他人”。中国专制文化心态与中国文字语言是这种病态扭曲的根源。中国的专制政体只是这种病态扭曲的延伸与结果。

在西方，自由是美德/基督精神指导下的自由。在中国，“自由”则是自由于美德/基督精神。

In China, the meaning of "freedom" is exactly the opposite of that in the West: In the West, freedom means "free from others' intrusion and harm". In China, freedom means "freedom to intrude upon and harm others". This perverse conception of "freedom" comes from thousands of years of despotic culture and the Chinese language itself. Today's extreme tyranny in China is only the poisonous fruit of such a sick tree, a wicked roots and the poisonous soil.

In the West, freedom goes hand in hand with virtue/Christianity. In China, freedom is to be free from virtue/Christianity.

● 很多西方人都批判中國沒有自由，但是從生活的方方面面看，我覺得事實並非如此。在中國待了五年後，我發覺中國很多地方遠比西方自由：

中國已變成性愛天堂

一、性自由：這可能是改革開放以來最大的新自由。以前有關部門管私人戀愛、婚姻生活很嚴格的。八十年代我在上海留學的時候，我的中國女友提出分手的原因是她怕當局的看法，怕跟我交往會影響她的前途。那時候中國的大學生不允許結婚，更不用說跟老外搞什麼自由戀愛。當時沒有什麼娛樂的場所；我剛到中國那天正好是國慶日，晚上十點從上海虹橋機場坐大巴到復旦大學，一路上都沒有看到營業中的飯店，更不用說酒吧、ＫＴＶ或水療中心。現在這些娛樂比西方普遍。

英國幾乎沒有ＫＴＶ和水療中心，更不要說當官包二奶、包三奶。西方在法律上老早就有性自由，但是我們受到很多道德的約束。在中國雖然有法律的約束，但是在中國因為從傳統道德約束中「解放」出來，中國就變成了性愛天堂(也叫黃色氾濫—自己選擇)。有個老外在上海待了幾年後，寫了一本書描寫上海年輕人對性生活的態度，說money is sexy and sex is financial（金錢很性感，性交是金融性的。）我的中國朋友又說，現在的性自由應該感謝共產黨：沒有共產黨就沒有性生活！

　二、讚美女性的自由。中國是男人的天下。假如來生可以選擇國籍和性別的話，我會考慮做中國的男人。西方的女人想跟男人競爭，他們的穿著越來越中性化，不穿高跟鞋，不化妝，不穿暴露的衣服，不保持身材。她們認為男女平等，女人沒有必要穿性感的衣服來吸引男人或者說話時笑得很嫵媚。中國人喜歡稱呼年輕的女性為「美女」，而在西方會被認為是對女性的不尊重。

　三、牽手的自由。在中國，街上或隨便一個公共場所，有時候可以見到手牽著手的女性，或勾肩搭背的男性。但是在英國很早以前就不能這樣了。在西方同性戀已經被社會所認可了，但是異性戀者卻不想與同性間表現得親密而被誤解是同性戀。所以同性之間在街上或公共場所都不會挨得很親密。

貪污、吸煙和隨便撒謊的自由
　

四、當官貪污的自由。用海派笑星周立波的話說，中國的官員就如一個餓了三天的人讓他獨自一人在深夜看守一家肉包子鋪，不偷吃都不是人了。在中國缺少監督的體制下，當官最容易的應該就是貪污了，當官不貪污比貪污還難，這樣還不足以說明在中國當官有貪污的自由嗎？

五、亂丟垃圾的自由。去年夏天我去了福建的一個鄉下，那裡的河床兩邊隔一段距離就有一堆垃圾。那裡的人處理生活垃圾的方法是倒在河床上，等雨水沖走。當我對此提出疑問說下游的人怎麼辦時，他們很是疑惑的問到：下游有什麼人。和我隨行的一位中國朋友說她老家在鄉下，處理生活垃圾也是類似的情況。一塊無主的空地或水溝通常會成為垃圾的最後歸宿。因為在鄉下往往都沒有公共垃圾車或垃圾回收站。最近中國政府用一個導彈炸毀一個廢棄的衛星，大幅的增加了地球高空的垃圾密度，可見中國有在天空丟垃圾的自由。

六、吸煙的自由。雖然中國的衛生部在今年頒發了禁止在公共場所吸煙的條例，但是現在公共場所吸煙的人隨處可見，我見到絕大部分的餐廳桌上都擺著煙灰缸，那條例如一紙空文。有次我和幾個朋友一起在一個餐廳的小包間吃飯，其中一個女性朋友是個孕婦，而一個煙癮很重的朋友抽了好幾根煙。在我提出說二手煙對孕婦不好時，朋友還是堅持把點燃的香煙抽完。可見在中國公共場合不能吸煙的意識淡薄到了吸煙成為了一種自由。

　　七、說謊和作假、盜版的自由。在我小的時候，我媽媽就教育我誠實是做人最基本的原則。我爸爸也對我說過，一個男人的話就是他的品行，要從說真話開始。長大了我以為全世界的人應該是大同小異，不應該帶任何偏見去跟他們交流。真沒想到，中國人有這種成語，也不是有特別忌諱撒謊。他們經常跟我說，你為什麼不騙某某人開心等話，還鼓勵我騙錢。我的中國前女友騙了我，她說和她的前男友已經分手了，結果我發現，她所謂的已經分手的前男友還是經常到她家過夜。當我提出分手，她提出做我的情人，鼓勵我欺騙我的新女友，還說，要騙就騙到底。還有在中國到處都可以買得到相對來說便宜的盜版書、光碟和盜版名牌。很多老外在中國很喜歡這點，他們可以花很少的錢買到他們喜歡看的電影光碟，因為自己國家沒有盜版自由。

不必客套、不被尿憋死的自由
　

八、無信仰的自由。在中國沒有信仰是很普遍的一件事，沒有人會因為自己沒有信仰在社交中而感到不自在。在我的國家雖然不像幾百年以前那麼極端，可能因為沒有信仰而被殺害或受排斥，但是像我這個無神論者還是不能坦然的承認自己沒有信仰，不然有時候會很尬尷。尤其是禮拜天，我常常有一種壓抑感，因為商店不開門，我常常無事可做。在那裡我感覺自己是少數分子，而在中國我是屬於主流，感覺更舒服、自在。

　九、不用客套的自由。在英國每天說的最多的可能就是「謝謝」和「對不起」這兩個詞，哪怕是家人之間。如我和我妹妹一起吃飯，我需要用鹽的時候，鹽剛好離她比較近，我讓她幫我遞過來，她馬上不滿的說我怎麼沒有說「請」字。還有一次，我跟一個朋友說我們之間不要這麼客氣，老是說謝謝或對不起，太見外了。他說，謝謝你的提醒，對不起，我不會再這樣了。中國現在的很多教育在向西方靠近，但是這種情況在親人朋友之間還是很少會發生的。在中國熟人之間如果你很客套就顯得很見外了，我們不用擔心因為自己忘記說「謝謝」而讓對方不滿。

十、吃飯時有發出聲音的自由。在中國喝湯或吃麵的時候適當的發出一些聲響是很正常的，和失禮是牽扯不上關係的。但是在英國這是大忌。我在中國生活了五年，很多習慣都已經入鄉隨俗了。

十一、不排隊的自由。中國的一些新聞報紙，經常會讚美一些自覺排隊的現象──在國外這是很難上報的，就像在中國不會報導說這個人每天都要呼吸空氣一樣。因為在中國很多場所不需要排隊，誰比較強壯，誰速度比較快，誰的社會關係比較硬，誰的錢比較多，就能優先享受某種權利和自由。

　十二、不被尿憋死的自由。英國的公用廁所不多，麥當勞這種餐廳也沒有中國多，而在餐廳如果你沒有消費，他們是不樂意讓你使用他們的洗手間的，所以每次出去逛街經常被尿憋得半死。而在中國則再沒有這種壓力，中國到處都有肯德基或麥當勞，就算沒有，很多餐廳你沒消費也不會介意你使用他們的衛生間。

　十三、打人的自由。在上海工作的時候，我被我的老闆打了。我去找我的律師，他說在中國只要沒被打到骨折，公安局不會重視這類事情。

資訊解放，假裝幸福的自由

十四、資訊自由：很多人說在中國沒有資訊自由，但是我到了中國，我感受到資訊的解放。為什麼這樣說呢？因為在國外我經常有一種被資訊轟炸的感覺。資訊太多了。報紙、網路、收音、電影、電視、雜誌整天用資訊來轟炸我。媒體的多元化，什麼樣的報紙，什麼樣的資訊都有。但是這些媒體有一個共同點：負面的資訊比較多，所以說在國外看電視也好，看報紙也好，上網也好，經常感覺很悲傷。

而在中國正好相反，可以看到很多正面的讓人很開心的資訊。另外還有一種解放，時間的解放。因為中國沒有Facebook、Twitter這種網路社交工具，在國外的時候我會在這方面消磨很多時間和朋友聊天、溝通，而來到中國我的時間被解放了。中國有退出互聯網的自由，中國領導有坐井觀天的自由。

十五、沒有義務的自由。沒有義務的生活狀態也是一種自由，而這是中國人最重要的自由，也是中國很多其他自由的根源。中國人沒有權利，所以沒有義務是理所當然的。一個奴隸不需要對他的主人很老實；他再老實主人不會很相信他。就算奴隸服從一輩子，只要他做錯一件事，主人會對奴隸說，你看，你的素質那麼低，不值得擁有自由。假如解放奴隸們，搞民主社會，會多亂。所以大部分的奴隸選擇騙主人，假裝幸福的奴隸，對主人的朋友皮笑肉不笑說主人好，等著有機會偷吃點主人的東西，或者跟主人的女傭偷情，或者偷一點主人的錢，或者偷懶。一黨專制的中國不就這樣嗎？其實中國人有一種義務：爭取應有的權利。

當然，在中國不是什麼樣的自由都有，有得必有失。而老外在中國顯然沒有中國人自由。如果一個老外隨地吐痰，很可能會有中國人「呸」的一聲，吐了濃濃的一口痰在地上說：這老外怎麼這麼不文明，隨地吐痰！

CHINA'S HONOR CODE FROM PAST - ITS CONFUCIAN CONNECTION TO PSEUDO MORALS AND ETHIC OF TODAY
从中国的伪道德经及其儒家起源看今日中国社会的道德虚无

By Kai Chen 陈凯（Written 4/17/2006, Reprint 10/10/2011)

On this Saturday's LA Times' front page, there was an article entitled "China's Honor Code". It entails how nowadays the Chinese children fail to honor the ancient Confucian moral code of filial piety.

Some Chinese authorities even try to revive the ancient practice by erecting laws, enlisting tactics of shame by publishing the names of those who did not support their parents, and even forcing the school children to wash their parents' feet after they get home from school and refort their filial acts back to the school authority.

Those of you who fail to see the connection of Chinese feudal ethics based on Confucian teachings to a despotic authority still in control of Chinese society, should at least have seen it a little more clearly by now. The very concept of Nation is expressed in two characters in Chinese - "Guo Jia" - Nation Family, in congruent with core Confucian ethics based strictly on the order of "Emperor and Subordinates, Father and Sons". Now in a soulless Chinese society, the Communist Party and authorities want to tap into the ancient moral codes to establish some order and control. Forcing children to take care of their elders is only one of the tactics they use to enforce the slave mentality in the society. The implication is unmistakably political - since the offspring have the obligation to serve the elders, the population has the obligation to serve the nation - the communist Party-State, by logical extension of Confucian reasoning.

I say that Confucian ethics is a pseudo-moral code, precisely because its nature of lack of freedom and individuality, for all the Confucian ethics are "Others-Oriented", in contrast to Christian morals which are established on the priciple of Freedom and a self-directed, self-enforced orientation.

Loyalty, Filial Piety, Chastity and Devotion to Friends are all dependent on others to judge one's worth in his pursuit of being moral. One is only to perform for others and the state throughout his life, NOT to live for his own goals and innermost yearnings. And this code of ethics is strictly hierarchical and one-way street. There has never been an element of Emperor being loyal to his subordinates. The very term Loyalty implies bottom-up direction. There has never been an element of parents or elders being dedicated to and caring for their children. Childrens are tools for the elders, and are subjects to their elders no matter how old they are. "When father wants his son to die, his son has to die". There has never been a demand of husband to his wife. Chastity is strictly for women, with their unconditioned submission and bond-feet to please men. There has never been admission and recognition of self-interest and individual dignity. Pleasing others and friends, being used and even abused by them, is viewed as devotion and ultimately ethical. There have no standards on these codes are judged and evaluated, except in others' eyes, in the collective and superiors' feelings.

In Confucian ethics, somehow being used by others and using others are justified as being the very sign of Chinese identity. Using themselves as means to an end, to the collective and others, and using others without consent to justify some lofty goals are viewed not only as normal and Chinese, but as the ultimate morals. Cultural slavery is the necessary outcome of these pseudo-morals and ethics. And the very despotism come Chinese claim to dislike and despise is precisely established on this "Others-Oriented" fake morals. Everyone in this code justifies their own men-using and men-eating, under the lofty Confucian ethics. Everyone is also justifying their victimhood and helplessness by saying they are the products of their own cultural environment and they can never be free from their own Chineseness given by their own ancestors. Everyone is vehemently Nationalistic in defending this pseudo code of honor. The recent return of Wang Zhizhi to China to serve the Party-State's interests is only one examples of such moral degradation and corruption.

In sharp contrast, Freedom is the prerequisit in Christian morals and ethics. All the morals are accepted by individuals, NOT forced upon them. Equality is the necessary outcome of this moral code. Every individual is a beginning and end to himself and the only judge of his moral behavior is God through his own conscience. Thus Christian ethics is Self-Oriented and Self-Directed. Any suggestion of force and involuntary action by individuals are viewed strictly as immoral and corrupt. Individuals are not to be used as animals, as means to an end, no matter how lofty the end might be, no matter how much power and how many people the enforcer possesses. This is real morality, real ethics. They are timeless values encoded in our genes and bones, and embobied in our yearning for liberty, life and happiness. This is HUMAN morals and ethics.

Those who profess to love freedom and also love Confucian ethics should have realized the intrinsic contradiction of their mind-set. One cannot truly love freedom without accepting the very responsibility it entails. One cannot truly understand liberty without understanding choice and open-ended possibilities. Those who want their group identity to supercede their individual identity should have given the very results it always leads to the proper name - Slavery. Those who claim to want freedom yet don't want to cast away the fake security and certainty the slave owners always promise and guaranty their subjects should properly name their actions as "Prostitution with a Chastity Plate hanging in front of their chests". Those who want to plant bitter melon vines in their fields, but refuse to accept the bitter fruits, or deny their original intention by saying "I never meant that the fruits are bitter" should property get their heads examined, for they are bordering on Bipolar and Schizophrenia.

As I have encountered many Chinese and many in the liberal left in America, I have found this border-line Bipolar and Schizophrenia to be prevalent. All of them claim to have good intentions, all of them claim to want to save others and serve others. (Even today forcing and conditioning individuals to Serve the People is still the paramount accepted and promoted ethics in China.) All of them excuse themselves when they see the murder and mayhem in their beloved despotic countries and collective nations around the world with wail such as "I didn't mean that when I first supported their ideologies" or "the ideologies of Communism and Fascism are good, only the practice of Bad people give them bad names".

Where are your individual moral integrity and responsibility? Where is your mental faculty for reason and logic? Where are you as an indivisible individual?

To Kai Chen:

In my humble opinion,

Communist authority does not represent China. It only represents an evil force that stole and trampled China. Whatever it perpetrates in China at current stage can not be taken as an account against Chinese culture.

// The key for sustaining any society is its legal system instead of the cultural custom. Any modern society that depends on cultural custom is doomed to lose the trust by the ordinaries. As the excellent example you provided, the communist just tries to take off the responsibility for caring elders. Any responsible government should provide a certain amount of money to each elder indistinguishably as USA.

// The legitimate comparison should be between two family in the same social system. Taking the example a Chinese family with elders and an American family both in USA receiving the same government support, which parents enjoys more of their lives? I think it'll be Chinese family where the parents receives much more children's visit due to their filial tradition. In contrast, the American elders most likely receive much less, if any, visit from their children. Therefore, Chinese elders will be happier in a healthy social system thanks to their Confucius culture.

// I do admit that Chinese culture including Confucius doctrines have lots of downside that needs to be cleaned up but this, the filial tradition, is good.

Dear Pingli:

The trap the false morals that the Chinese often fall in is what I have already stated: They attach certain concrete appearances with morals.

For example, elders should be respected regardless. As a moral and an ethic, it sounds perfectly OK. But to dwell deeper into it, you can see this is exactly what China's despots' depend on - absolutel obedience and conformity, not to moral absolutes, but to authoritarian power based on old age. The old-age politics in China has doomed generations of Chinese with a stagnant and rigid political culture, void of any new ideas and fresh blood, therefore void of any vitality.

Respect and love has morals in them. They are earned, not given. Should you respect Mao because he was older than others? Should the elders abuse their offsprings at will simply because they are old? Should a dying Aids patient smear his feces onto others simply because he is going to die? Should Rodney King who was beaten by the Police unjustly be viewed as a hero? Is victim always just and good? Is poverty always a virtue and being rich always immoral, or vice versa?

I admire those in America whose parents have neglected them or abused them eventually have the courage to face their past abuses and draw a moral line with their parents, to devote their lives never to abuse and neglect their offsprings. NBA's Spurs' Bruce Bowen is only one example. His parents totally abandoned him when he was young. But he had found a way not just to survive, but to thrive as a great human being. When his birth parents attempt to come back to his life, he refused to let them, for he knows a line has to be drawn so he is not going to repeat the past evil.

I do indeed regularly visit my mother, 86. It is not because I am obligated by tradition that I do it, buy because I love her, for she never abused me. This is more than I can say for my big brother who regularly beat me up for no reason. I never call him or visit him. I meet him only once a year when my mother has a gathering.

Some say that China is like a mother, no matter how ugly she is, she is still your mother. I entirely oppose such a view for it implies a fake moral. What is this mother raped you and abused you and poisoned you? What is this so called mother is not only ugly, but evil? Are you still obligated to love her?

Evil is perpetuated this way: In psychology you often find people who have been abused often abuse others. People who have been abused as a child often repeat the pattern in abusing their own children.

Someone has to have the moral clarity and courage to draw a line, to end this vicious cycle of abuse. Victims and victimizers must be eliminated at the same time, the abusers and the abused, the masters and the slave, the scam artist and the ignorant stupid takers must be disappearing at the same time. A good cycle of human dignity, self-respect and true morality must be established.

With respect and best wishes. Kai Chen

To Kai Chen:

This is my view on China's motherhood.

China has been and will continually to be my dear motherland.
However, she is sick, sickened by tuberculosis and schizophrenia.

As a child, I feel responsible to treat her with all my asset.

However, most people don't feel the sickness of our motherland, due to the heavy impact from propaganda. Some rather ignore the illness of our mother, violating the very concept of filial piety spirit.

Our culture, in current China, is in a non-existence status, destructed by the communist. Anything you describe as vulgar to China or Chinese people can not be attributed to the non-existing thing, our culture.

It'll be, to certain degree, legitimate for you to comment on our culture by describing Taiwan people's behavior since they don't have communist ruining their cultural spirit. If Taiwan is as vulgar as China, I will probably think of China's cultural problem. But I don't think that's the case for Taiwan. From my father's comment, Taiwan people behaves more like our Chinese people before 1949, reflecting our culture more, even not perfectly.

I think we are seeing China from different perspectives.

Dear Pingli:

Thanks for a thoughtful message and I appreciate it.

Yes indeed, Taiwan has made a great progress toward the direction of freedom, human dignity and rights. There is no doubt about it. We are all proud of what Taiwan can achieve with only a few decades' hard work, with the moral compass of liberty, democracy, human rights, truth, justice.

My only contention with you is you think this progress is because of Chinese culture, not inspite of obsticles posted by the Chinese culture, while I think the reason is the opposite. It is because in Taiwan, the Western culture of humanity and individual human rights has, despite the poisons left by our Chinese ancestors, indeed taken roots, due to the transformation of its culture and cultural soil content.

If you study the vocabulary of the Taiwanese people, you will find most of it are translated from English. If you read Taiwanese papers, many terms and vocabulary are new and nonexistenct a few decades ago. Taiwanese economy has been sustained by its trade with America and the West. Taiwanese students have been educated in America and West, and most Taiwanese elite and government officials are proficient in English. Many of them have degrees in American universities. Taiwan's constitution is modeled after America's with its inner checks and balances, with its separate branches of government. Freedom of speech, nonexistence with our Chinese ancestors, is guanrantied now in Taiwan. The news media provides further more check and balances on governmental abuses. Men and women have equal rights in voting and expressions. This phenomenon is nonexistent with our ancestors. Different religions can coexist peacefully in Taiwan and Christianity played a big part in forming this tolerent culture. Sun Yetsun and Li Denhui were Christian believers, humanity, NOT being Chinese, are their first concern.

I can list many of positive changes in Taiwan, not because of their Chineseness, but inspite of it. Nonetheless, Taiwan has provided a positive role model to China. It has proven that transplantation of Western model of democracy and liberty to ensure human dignity is not only feasible, but workable as well. But the prerequsite of such a transplantation has to be a cultural soil content transformation. Otherwise, no matter how good the ideal is and how excellent the seed is, it will rot in a poisonous soil composite. It will never bud and fruit. Taiwan has a long way to go, but its direction is definitely right.

Contrast to what China has now: None of the Chinese current leaders has been educated in the West. Very small percetage of population in China speak English, none in the Politburo does. The fact is that only the Communist Politburo controls China, not the government. Army is loyal only to the Party and the despots. The mainland communist regime did everything to filter out Western infulence even its economy depends on America and West. The internet police have effectively checked and eliminated exchange of ideas with America and West. People in the mainland will not see and read what we are doing on this forum. Religion in China is government controlled for the only purpose of "serving the state". Press is not free to express. There is no private land ownership, much like in our ancestors' time, everything is emperor's. Government is not legitimate in nature by the consent of the governed, by election, their legitimacy is only by the muzzle of a gun, much like our ancestors. Constitution is fake for it espouses Communist's absolute power over people. There is no independent judiciary and separation of power in the government, much like our ancestors. Women's rights are trampled for they are not equal with men, girls are routinely drowned in China's "one child" evil policy, much like the practice by our ancestors. Individuals have no rights to express and they are used and educated to be the tools of the state, much like our ancestors....

If you are honestly taking a look at what is happening in China and in Taiwan, you have to say Taiwan cannot be farther apart from our ancestors and their despotic traditions; and China cannot be more resembled of the despotic values and traditions of our ancestors, with no elections, no rights, no freedom to express, no equality, no democracy and its institutions....

This misperception and misconception of that Taiwan is more Chinese are all products in people's fantasy and illusion. It simply is NOT a reality. Open your eyes in your mind and your soul, you may see the truth. Please stop thinking with your Chinese character-based language, with your skin color or the illusory cultural heritage, or national borders and start thinking with your brain which is designed for thinking, and start cleansing your souls with humanity and decency to rid off the decay.

Best regard. Kai Chen

《被欺骗的中国人》二十五儒教是道德杀手

中国人一提到道德，所指的就是儒教道德，仿佛道德属孔家专卖，此外别无分店。这是个认识上的误区，在这个世界上，有着形形色色的道德，每一种宗教都是一套完整独立的道德价值观。这些价值观并不相同，甚至相互对立，但他们都自称自己是真善美，于是世界上便有了无休止的争吵和战争。

道德包括的内容很广泛，比如真与假，善与恶，美与丑，正义与邪恶，诚实与欺诈等等，其中有些内容以上诸节已经提过，这里，咱们就从诚信、公德、奸淫、残忍四个方面来看看孔家店里出售的“道德”到底是个什麽玩意儿。

儒教是一种无神论宗教，是一种反宗教宗教，是一种“反话”宗教，因为他所标榜的，与它最终所导致的结果正好相反：它标榜忠，结果中国人最不忠；它标榜孝，结果中国人最不孝；它标榜诚信，结果中国人最狡诈。
中国人的狡诈是举世闻名的。

在欧洲人将中国视为乌托邦而大肆鼓吹中国的思想启蒙运动时期，著名思想家孟德斯鸠就不客气地指出：

“在拉希代孟，偷盗是准许的，在中国，欺骗是准许的。”

“（在中国）一切用暴力获得的东西都是禁止的，一切用术数或狡诈取得的东西都是许可的。”

用中国老百姓的话说就是：“打死人偿命，缺死人不偿命”。

“中国人的生活完全以礼为指南，但他们确实地球上最会骗人的民族。这特别表现在他们从事贸易的时候。虽然贸易会很自然地激起人们信实的感情，但他却从未激起中国人的信实。向他们买东西的人要自己带秤，每个商人有三种秤，一种是买进用的重秤，一种是卖出用的轻秤，一种是准确的秤，这是和那些对他有戒备的人们交易时用的。 ” ⑴

今天中国的消费者都熟悉第二种秤，即卖出时的轻秤。

黑格尔为中国人的欺诈找了原因：中国人没有荣誉感，残酷的体罚随时随地都会发生，父亲对儿子，皇帝对大臣，官吏对百姓，甚至官吏对官吏。

“中国人没有荣誉感，自卑，所以导致道德败坏，欺诈成风。”⑵
中国人小的时候尚有荣誉感，但在成长的过程中，这种天生的荣誉感就被家长、警察的打骂训斥和群众的嘲笑一点一点给抹煞了。

英国思想家罗素对中国是友好的，１９２０年他到中国访问，曾称赞了中国的民风、文教与艺术，但私下在给情人的信中他却说：

“中国非常压抑，他正在朽败腐烂，就像晚期的罗马帝国一样。”
“中国人没心肠、懒惰、不诚实。”⑶
到底是思想家，中国人没心肠，也看得出来。

一位英国教授吉德（Ｋｉｄｄ　１７９９－１８４３）曾说：
“倘若选择一种可作为中国人特性的美德，使它不仅在实践中会遭到排拒，而且从理论上讲，与现实的虚伪处世态度形成了最鲜明的对照，那么选择“信用”就是再恰当不过了，中国人的公私道德往往与真正的诚挚守信如此截然对立，以至于任何敌对一方都完全可以选取中国人的言行不一，口是心非作为嘲讽他们的生动材料。

虚伪、欺骗、不守信用、趋炎附势才是中国人最为突出、鲜明的特征。”⑷
一针见血。

在中国生活了近５０年的美国传教士明恩溥（１８４５－１９３２）则说：
“中国人缺乏信用最典型的一方面便是体现在他们对待孩子的行为上。他们不时告诫自己的孩子，不要讲求信用，不过，无论是大人还是孩子，都没有意识到这一事实。”

“ 一位中国教师，被雇请抄写和注释中国的格言，在写下古人一句绝妙的格言后，便为之进行注释道：即使在别人粗鲁地向你求助时，也绝不应拒绝，相反，应在表面上答应下来，虽然内心毫无相助之义，先拖到明天，再拖到后天，他解释说，这样，你就心安了。据我们所知，这一方法，正是有债款要还的中国人在别人讨债时通常所采用的，没有人会奢求他在一提出偿还要求时，便能收回自己的债款，因此没能收回时，他也绝不失望。不过，欠债人一般会最肯定的告诉他，下一次一定还给他，要不就下下次，下下下次再还给他。”

“假分量、假尺码、假钱钞、假货物、这些在中国都是在所难免的。甚至在挂有醒目的大招牌“货真价实”“言不二价”的远近有名的大字号，也是说一套，做一套，明一套，暗一套，里面的东西与他所标榜的，根本就不是一回事。”

“中国社会，只要有信任便会有足够钱财拿出来开发利用丰富的资源，发展他的实业。中国地大物博，资源丰富，这方面有得天独厚的优越条件，可惜一直未加以利用，因为整个社会都缺乏一种相互信任、诚实、守信的作风，人们都将自己积敛起来的财富妥善、秘密地藏了起来。这样就导致了社会资金的分流与不集中。试想，在如此虚伪、欺诈的社会氛围之下，谁又肯将自己辛辛苦苦挣来的一点钱拿出来给公家使用呢？对当前的中国，拥有什麽，缺少什麽，必须要有充分的了解。她完全有足够的知识、学问来满足它的各种需要，在每一方面，也都不缺少人才，但是，彼此间缺乏建立在真挚基础上的相互信任，使所有的这一切均不足以复兴帝国。”

本来还认为，中国人的骗术很高，很有人情味，没想到人家欧美人是火眼金睛，比中国人自己看得更透彻。

清朝、民国、直到今天，中国的社会如此一致，竟如克隆一般，当然，也有“与时俱进”的一面，那就是造价的技术更高了，范围更广了，行骗的手段更多了。

张三造假酒骗李四，李四造假烟骗王五，王五造假药骗赵六，赵刘给猪喂瘦肉精、给猪肉注水再骗张三、李四、王五，如此循环不已……。中国人也知道这种互骗游戏规则的最终结果是大家均成为受害者，但是谁也改变不了他，只能适应它。那些有权力、有责任改变他的执法者，也不能、不想改变它，因为他们是这个互骗游戏规则的最大受益者。人人都遵纪守法，他们除了工资之外就不会有任何油水，人人造假作弊，他们就可处处揩油。这油水最终出在消费者身上，造假行骗者无意间都成了官爷们的“税收员”，官爷们怎么可能动真格的查处他们，自断财路呢？

这个互骗的游戏规则是缺乏诚信、道德败坏的产物，反过来，他又加剧了道德败坏。人人都给猪肉注水了，你也必须给猪肉注水，否则，你将会被淘汰出局。人人都给猪肉注水了，只有注得多的人才会有利润可赚。适者生存，在中国，只有心狠手黑的人才会成为最终的成功者。

那些将美国成功人士作为自己的学习榜样的中国年轻人无疑是天真的、幼稚的。

对此丑陋的规则，难道中国人就不感到恶心，就不想去改变它？中国人也感到恶心，也想去改变它，但从来就没有成功过，因为他是中国传统专制帝国的一个有机组成部分，它的渊源正是中国人崇拜的儒教。

儒教不是教人诚信的吗？相互欺诈怎能归罪于他？还是来让我们来看看儒教是怎样教人的诚信的吧。

子曰：“弟子入则孝，出则弟，谨而信，（处世谨慎而诚实守信）泛爱众，而秦人；行有余力，则以学文”。⑸（《论语•学而》）
子夏曰：“与朋友交，言而有信。虽曰未学，吾必谓之学矣”。⑹《论语•学而》
子曰：“君子不重则不威，学则不固；主忠信，（座仁义忠信诚实为主）无友不如己者，过则勿惮改”。⑺（《论语•学而》）
子曰：“人而无信，不知其可也……。”（一个人不讲信用，不知道他将如何立身处世。）⑻（《论语•为政》）
……

孔丘师徒讲诚信，言之凿凿，如果我们人人都按“圣人”的话去做，岂不是就可以杜绝欺诈了吗？怎能将欺诈归罪于儒教呢？

先不要急于下结论，还是让我们把他们师徒的话听完。

子贡问道：“怎么样才可以算士呢？”孔丘说：“对自己的行为有羞耻心，出使外国不辱君命，就可以算士了。”子贡说：“请问那次一等的呢？”孔丘说：“宗族里称赞他孝顺，乡亲们称赞他敬爱兄长。”子贡说；“请问那再次一等的呢？”孔丘说：“说话一定守信用，行为一定有结果，这是倔强固执的小人那！不过也可以算是那次一等的了。”（原文：言必信，行必果，硁硁然小人哉！抑亦可以为次矣。）（硁硁：认真固执的样子。）⑼（《论语•子路》）
子曰：“君子贞而不谅。”（君子坚守正道而不拘泥于信用）⑽（《论语•卫灵公》）
孟子曰：“大人者，言不必信，行不必果，唯义所在。”（高尚的人，说出的话没必要守信，所办的事没必要有结果，只要符合道义就行了）（11）（《孟子•离娄下》）
孟子曰：“君子不亮（同谅），恶乎执！”（君子不守信用，认真固执是不好的）（12）（《孟子•告子下》）
哦！原来孔孟的诚信是针对百姓、小人说的，君子、大人是没必要遵守的，谁遵守，谁就成了“硁硁”的小人了，就不是君子了。这种针对百姓、小人的诚信，是奴才的诚信。的确，如果百姓、小人们不诚信，不老实，统治起来不就太困难了吗？
子曰：“上好礼，则民莫敢不敬；上好义，则民莫敢不服；上好信，则民莫敢不用情。”（13）（《论语•子路》）
子夏曰：“君子信而后劳其民，未信，则已为厉己也；……”（14）（《论语•子张》）（君子应先确立信誉，然后再去劳役人民，不然的话，人民就会认为君子在伤害欺骗自己。）

孔丘师徒不让君子们讲信用，但为了奴役人民，还必须做做样子。这不是明着在教统治者怎样去欺骗人民的吗？

儒教是一种积极入世的宗教，他认为人们通过学习就可以提高自己的道德修养，就可以成为君子。君子，是褒义的，是指道德高尚的人；小人是贬义的，是指道德败坏的人。人是向善的，都愿意当君子而不愿当小人，人们坚持不懈学习的最终结果就是个个都成了“言不必信，行不必果”的君子。

表面上儒教在教人诚信，实际上他是个地地道道的欺诈教唆犯。

儒教的欺骗性很强，这在“诚信”上表现得最明显。

孔丘和孟轲说君子可以不守信用，是有个冠冕堂皇的条件的，那就是君子行事要符合道义。他们所说的“道义”是个什麽东西呢？就是道教所追求的那个惚兮恍兮，窈兮冥兮的，莫测高深，通融善变的“道”。认真、固执、信用、操守等“硬”的东西都是与这个“虚”的、“软”的“道”所格格不入的。

”是以圣人后其身而身先，外其身而身存，非以其无私邪？故能成其私。“（15）（《老子•七章》）
”将欲歙之，必固张之；将欲弱之，必固强之；将于废之，比固兴之；将欲夺之，必固与之。是谓微明，柔弱胜刚强。鱼不可脱于渊，国之利器不可示于人。“（16）（《老子•三十六章》）

By Kai Chen 陈凯 (Reprint 10/8/2011)

I start this topic with only the typical Chinese in mind, not every Chinese. And I use 精明 "shrewd" to indicate a degree of being calculating, manipulating, self-deceiving, vicious cleverness, faithlessness and short-sightedness.... I use 愚蠢 “stupidity" to indicate a state of mindset that lacks true intelligence, and at the same time treasuring that lack of intelligence as the essential of the Chinese culture.

The reason for such a derogatory description is not without basis, and that basis is the Chinese cultural tradition and its emphasis on the so called wisdom of "man struggling against man" as the first and foremost attibute a Chinese person should learn and master. Mao in his proud self-portrait declares: There is an endless joy in the struggle of man against other men. And you must have had the intimate experience of the first lessons in your life by your parents and teachers in which you are NOT taught how to discover and understand the reality and objective world truth, but how to deal with others, to obey, to manipulate, to take advantage of others without being detected, how to climb the social ladder....

When you observe carefully how the Chinese interact with each other, you will validate my point of view by noticing from the Chinese eyes. They are avoiding truth, but searching to detect the tiniest cracks and weaknesses from other humans, so they can worm into their confidence and manipulate them for their own benefit.

All the Chinese literature is about how to survive despotism, how to become a despot, how to manipulate others' emotions and strategize to seize and usurp power, how to be loyal to the oppressors and how to intimidate and control your subjects.... When　Ｉ mentioned to others that my experience as a Chinese in the mainland is nothing but hell, people had never failed to remind me that there are others who had worse experiences. It is as if one should be satisfied in a cage so long as one is better fed than those around him. "As long as you are a fatter pig than other pigs in the pigsties, you are a happier pig." has long become the Chinese definition of happiness. So hell in this sense is no difference from heaven.

There has never been such thing in the Chinese literature as that one should fight against injustice, slavery, despotism and to establish truth, justice, freedom and better future. To a Chinese, there is no better future. Everything has already been destined to happen by his ancestors and fate. So what's the use to struggle? So it is wise to just wait, be patient, endure and die with others in misery. This is the ultimate Chinese wisdom: Die for the others, for the state and the emperors, die with others suffering with you, with contentment and gratitude to those who oppressed you, for otherwise, you will be lost (since oppression is the only form of one's self-identity). Then and only then, maybe you will have a better after-life, after your corpse is eaten away by the parasites and the elements.

All in all, it seems that the only purpose for a Chinese to exist is to please others and to serve the collective -- the state. It has never remotely occured to the Chinese that a person has a special meaning on this planet earth, and he has a destiny by God to fulfill. Only he himself can find that destiny and purpose in his life and no one else should interfere in this regard. Only by having fulfilled that sacred destiny, true happiness is possible and the world will progress to a better future.

In sharp contrast to the Chinese wisdom of "happier slaves", in the West and America, wisdom is defined as the intelligence to understand the laws of nature and God, and the ability to observe these objective laws and rules set not by man, but by the divine providence -- our creator. All the inventions in the West are associated with the discovery of the objective truth and reality, with the discovery of God's law. So there is always a sense of progress and hope for human beings. Tomorrow is better than today, because humans are free, under God.

Struggle against injustice, depotism, slavery and oppression and struggle for human joy and happiness, for human freedom and progress, for a better future have always been the central theme in the Western literature. From Shakespeare to Tolstoy, from Plato to Adam Smith, from Galileo to Einstein, human intelligence and wisdom is in full display. Truth, justice, freedom are always the goals and purposes of human exploration and discovery. Happiness and self-fulfillment has always been the ultimate achievement for human beings. This indeed, my fellow travellers toward freedom, is the individual human being's greatness. This indeed, my fellow former Chinese compatriots, is what a human being should aim at and strive to achieve. This indeed, my pitiful slave-minded ancestral land, is the God's way.

Small-man politics and slave-minded cultural tradition of the Chinese should long have been placed to rest, forever and ever, never allowed to return. The corrupt wisdom of man-eating-man, man-struggling against-man aught to be turned upside down and a new form of wisdom with true human intelligence based on God's law of freedom, justice and truth should be established from scratch. A new mindset, a new culture, a new type of human beings must be initiated, promoted and sustained on the despotism-ravaged land of Asia and Chinese mainland.

My forum is my way to address these fundamental issues, to expose the evils and ills in the Chinese cultural mindset, to promote the new human culture originated and established in the West and in America, and to start a new mode of thinking and behaving for those willing Chinese.

Chinese Military Modernization - a threat to free world

China or the US? Make your choice
中共党朝与美国-谁来主导世界？

By Gideon Rachman

The defining geopolitical drama of the next century will be the battle for power and influence between China and America. That emerging struggle is already posing awkward choices for Asian countries, caught between the two global giants.

On Monday the US senate pressed forward with a bill allowing for the imposition of tariffs on Chinese goods. Even if the protectionist drive in America now pauses for a while, this confrontational mood in the US poses a dilemma for China’s neighbours. China is now the largest trading partner for Japan, India, Australia, South Korea and most of the nations of south-east Asia. But these countries still have their most important military relationship with the US. How long can their economic and strategic interests point in different directions?

Not for long, if one is to judge by an editorial in the People’s Daily last week. The official newspaper of the Chinese Communist party took aim at “certain countries” who “think as long as they can balance China with the help of US military power, they are free to do whatever they want”.

The article was probably provoked by a statement from Japan and the Philippines, the previous day, in which the two countries promised to boost naval co-operation and implicitly disputed China’s extensive territorial claims in the South China Sea. But China’s warning could equally have been aimed at Vietnam, India, South Korea, Australia or Taiwan – all of whom have moved over the past year to strengthen military ties with America.

The irony, of course, is that it is precisely Chinese sabre-rattling, exemplified by that article in the People’s Daily, that is sending its neighbours running screaming into the arms of Uncle Sam. Until recently China seemed to be playing an intelligent waiting game – relying on its growing economic strength to draw its neighbours inexorably into a Chinese sphere of influence. Now the People’s Republic risks overplaying its hand – and so creating the anti-Chinese alliance that it both fears and denounces.

A more patient policy would make sense for China because it is likely to be the world’s largest economy by 2020. The US remains the world’s dominant military power – and is even the pre-eminent military force in China’s own Pacific backyard. But since political and military power usually track economic power, American hegemony in the Pacific Ocean may ultimately be unsustainable. It is this point that the People’s Daily was alluding to, when it warned – “No country wants to give back their ticket for the high-speed train of China’s economic development.”

With the US government borrowing 40 cents of every dollar that it spends – and China the largest foreign buyer of US debt – the Chinese are indirectly funding American military dominance of the Pacific. Even as America’s allies in the region move to strengthen ties with the US, they worry that America’s money problems will force the country to scale back in the Pacific. At the same time, China is building up its own military. American planners point to the development of a new range of Chinese missiles that directly threaten the airbases and aircraft carriers on which America bases its military dominance in the Pacific.

China’s neighbours are also worried by the country’s growing muscle – and its willingness to flex it. Over the past couple of years, China’s maritime disputes with Vietnam and Japan have taken on a new bitterness – with clashes on the high seas followed by bitter diplomatic exchanges. The Indians say that China is becoming more assertive about its claims to parts of Indian territory. The South Koreans are also jumpy about China’s relationship with the North.

The dark interpretation of China’s actions is that nationalist forces and the country’s military are becoming more influential in Beijing. A younger generation is coming to power, schooled to believe that China has been victimised by the outside world because it has been weak. The current contrast in the economic fortunes of China and America has also increased China’s confidence and assertiveness.

A more benign interpretation of Chinese actions is that the country now has a growing range of economic interests around the world – which makes it all but inevitable that it will spend a lot more on its military and will be tougher in asserting its interests. The hungry Chinese economy is dependent on imported energy – and would be vulnerable to a naval blockade. Building a few aircraft carriers and submarines, and pushing China’s claims to the energy riches of the South China Sea, might seem like a sensible precaution for the Chinese government – rather than the aggressive claim to regional dominance that its neighbours fear.

Yet even this relatively benign interpretation of China’s actions is not entirely reassuring. It suggests that China and the US are increasingly likely to interpret each other’s actions and alliances as threatening – and to respond in ways that then feed the other side’s perception of aggression. This is a pattern of great power behaviour that might ring a bell for students of 20th century history.

Yet amid all these tensions, diplomatic exchanges across the Pacific continue. Next month Barack Obama will host all the major powers of the region, including China, at the Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation summit that will be held in the president’s native Hawaii. Perhaps Mr Obama should arrange a trip to Pearl Harbor to remind everybody of the dangers of strategic miscalculation in the Pacific.

陈凯一语： Kai Chen's Words:

To understand reality and find truth in the world is what the Chinese should do in order to be free. Not as some assume that first the Chinese need to be understood by the world.

去懂得与了解世界上的真知才是中国人应急迫去做的，而不是像许多中国人想象的一样，先让世界来了解中国。

Contrast American & Chinese Students

By Kai Chen 陈凯（Written 5/10/2006, Reprint 9/29/2011)

If you compare native born American students and the first or second generation Chinese American students, you will find that most Chinese American students have better grades and attend better schools. After they graduate, you will find most Chinese American students tend to have good, steady jobs with good incomes.

Yet, very few Chinese Americans have become prominent in community lives, in politics, in the military, in social activities, in becoming corporate executives... Somehow they are not in the American leadership echelon. I have heard some complaints from Chinese American communities. Some blame it on racism and glass ceilings, some blame it on the cultural barriers, some blame it on the language difference and their Chinese accent... But very few Chinese American families see that the defective Chinese family culture plays a big role in this phenomenon.

Most Chinese families, especially those who have just moved from overseas to America, have great work ethics and they taught their children to work hard as well. But they fail to understand that a capitalist society not only rewards hard work, mostly it rewards innovation and risk-taking. The free market rewards not only effort, but mostly talent plus creativity. This is where the Chinese families come short.

Having good grades does not make good citizens. It is only one element. Most Chinese families keep to themselves or just function in the Chinese speaking circles, either due to language difficulties, or a reluctance to merge into American mainstream culture. Many Chinese students have very little social contact outside their own cultural circle; many have very little extra-curriculum activities. Very few play sports which is a very big part in American life. Very few assume school student leadership activities and roles. Very few have things and interests that are special to themselves and to others. They are single-dimension competitors. They only work hard to get good grades.

Confidence is crucial in a person's social life and career. Yet many Chinese students are socially illiterate and are basically social retards. They simply don't know how to effectively communicate with others, others that are not in their cultural circle. They assume somehow people are not connected on individual basis but only on group and cultural basis. They simply fail to understand what America is about. They simply fail to take advantage of the enormously open social structure in America. They simply fail to express themselves as unique individuals.

My brother came many years ago. But he and his wife have never paid attention to their only son when he attended high school. They have never gone to a PTA meeting, never communicated with the teachers and school authorities, never even bothered to enter American mainstream culture. They have never travelled together as a family, never gone to see a movie as a family, never had any habbies to immerse themselves in the community... Of course they have every right not to know others, but just don't blame others for not knowing and understanding them. Their son eventually got in trouble with the law and involved in other unpleasant things, but ultimately they fail to understand that in America, in a free society, you are your own master. There is nobody else to blame. If one has shirked his own responsibility as a parent, what does he expect from his child? The only thing I ever heard from my brother and his wife is " making money" in America and life is so hard and so on. His wife eventually returned to China and retired at age 50, full of complaints about their American failure. She simply returned to the misery and stagnation she had known so well and from which she had some certainty.

It is not just my brother and his family. I see many such examples in Chinese American community. Yes indeed they have never had to speak a word of English in China Town or San Gabriel Vallley where are mostly occupied by ethnic Chinese. Yet, they have thoroughly failed to be active, conscientious individuals responsible not only to their own family and themselves, but to God and mankind. They have simply dropped out of American scene. So how can they blame America for their stagnant social status and a joyless life, for they had never bothered to know anybody else? I can't imagine that Condy Rice only worrys about Black community and still makes the Secretary of the State of America. Can you?

My point is maybe there is something (or lack of something) in the Chinese American community that is to be blamed for the failure. Maybe it is the narrow-mindedness in the Chinese culture, or the defects in the Chinese language itself, or something else we still need to find out. But just to blame America, the most open, most free society in human history for not paying attention to the Chinese is a joke. Attention and respect can only be earned, not asked or demanded.

I welcome everyone's opinion on this subject.

Kai,

Thank you so much for a wonderful article. Your keen observation is to the point and is truly thought-provoking. Mediocrity is indeed the lamentable consequence of all the "good education" provides. Hopeful your writings will give everyone a little nudge out of this comfortable pit of going nowhere.
