South Park creators issue statement to China - see also the current episode

Document Number Nine (London Review of Books, Oct 10): "Facebook has never been allowed into China, despite Mark Zuckerberg’s increasingly tragic attempts to suck up to the CCP: by prominently announcing that he was learning Mandarin, being photographed jogging in Beijing’s reeking, toxic smog, asking Xi Jinping to name his daughter (Xi declined) and – my favourite – making sure he has a copy of Xi’s arse-numbingly tedious 'The Governance of China' on his desk when Chinese journalists visit Facebook."

The NBA Chooses China’s Money Over Hong Kong’s Human Rights (Rolling Stone, Oct 7): "Daryl Morey is now being forced to apologize because he… supports Democracy?"

That was an amazing time because there was no clue that the iron curtain was about to fall down. We basically thought it was going to last forever.

IIRC, some borders got more liberalized in Poland and people started stream out as fast as they could. The Osties got it in their heads that enough was enough.

@Henry:First it was Czechoslavakia then Hungary stopped patrolling the border w/ Austria So East Germans went to Czechoslavakia to Austria to West Germany. Poland had one anti-solidarity crackdown right before then, and the rest of the Eastern block all sort of gave up.

@6:10china_defender ... Just because one opposes Hitler doesn't mean you have to support Stalin. This was a mistake made last century, it's disappointing to see people making it again.
  6:27pm
china defender:

nazis woulda won if not for Stalin. 27 million soviets died, which vastly outnumbers any other state's war dead.
  6:31pm
Sean from Iowa:

I'm not talking about Russians. I'm talking about international communists who realized too late what a monster Stalin was. Russians didn't really have a choice.

I worked with a woman from China who was convinced that because the population there is so enormous and unequal, if they allowed true freedom it would lead to total anarchy. She had a point. China only barely stays stable because the massive state control keeps tensions in check.

I’ve thought it would be neat to have ancestors or parents from the Isle of Man and Iran, then you could claim both Manx and Persian heritage.

I like how a dictatorship ruling over a billion people had its feelings hurt by a tweet and then a multi billion dollar sports industry apologized and gave it a hug. While protestors are being shot in a financial capital very similar to Manhattan.
