I wouldn't describe China as Communist. They are Fascist. When economic power is rolled into the State, you get fascism.

China's game is global hegemony - the Chinese 'Communist' Party are like petulant children. They hold grudges, retaliate at the most minor things and spew absolute non-truths about anything. They also haven't gotten over the 'Century of Humiliation' and they want to punish the West.

I've seen Chinese people become fanatical over the HK protests - they're ideologues who think so critically about Western governments, but are so blinded when it comes to their own.

This regime is dangerous, and Xi's leadership has shown this to be true. This is not a stain on the Chinese people or their history; it's the regime that is to blame.

The CCP is the enemy.

That applies to every communist and fascist regime.

And not just the US. The EU, Britain, Canada, NZ, Japan, India also stand with Australia in the face of Chinese thuggery.

Nobody is actually taking China's side. At best they have cowered silence.

I think the example of Taiwan shows that democracy is possible in a Chinese society, however the population of the mainland makes it more difficult.

China transformed into a fascist state when they adopted State Capitalism as their economic mantra. Of course, they'd never admit since fascism is the ideological opposite of Communism.

Already explain to you, Soren, if you'd read it.  It is to make money.

dunno where you get these weird ideas from.. certainly not reading my posts....if anyone has been down on AMERIKA   its me....and it goes for all side.. I am not a rusted on like you.. and can only see fault in one side..


which countries did you have in mind that the Yanks have run roughshod all over???????????......I know not everything has worked out the way they thought it would  but that doesnt mean the intentions were wrong......would you rather they which includes us sit back and watch our Communist chums take over smaller inferior countries that stand no chance without outside help of withstanding these vile countries...China - Hong Kong...
.Russia - Afghanistan..... who think nothing of riding roughshod over everything they want...

Yes, it is.

Nobody wants to be like China. They are what everyone wants to resist. There is no future in being an emotionally incontinent, psycho bully. You cant go from forelock tucking, inscrutible, grinning opium smokers to respected power.  China is not an example or inspiration to anyone but dictators.
China failed every time it encountered the world and it will fail now. They are too ... whats the word?... oh yes.....Chinese. weird, they are too weird.

Actually, I get them from reading your posts, Cods.  Only in the last few months have you apparently recognised the futility of backing el Presidente' Trump.

Well, there is a long history of America riding roughshod over other countries.  It deposed Mohammad Mosaddegh, the Prime Minister of Iran.  A democratically elected Government.  He tried to nationalise the oil industry.  Seems the Americans preferred the Shah.  Then there was Jacobo Árbenz, the democratically elected Prime Minister of Guatemala, overthrown by the CIA because he sought to undertake land reform.  Then we have Salvador Allende, the democratically elected Prime Minister of Chile, overthrown by a CIA backed coup.  There are numerous others, if you knew anything about the history of the Cold War, Cods.
