Japan showed how to keep economy afloat by burning money. China now shows how to stifle the freedom of speech using gargantuan cyber surveillance networks. U.S. ruling elites have already adopted the former and are eager to adopt the latter.

This is not receiving the coverage it deserves. It is probably not new, meaning, it did not just start happening within the last few days (although this “president for life” thing *IS* new) but China is taking a very serious and abrupt turn towards a much more repressive dictatorship. We have become very conditioned in the US to thinking of China as kind of a big panda bear ready to sell us cheap goods and with generally non-belligerent intentions. This illusion is or should be over.

“China’s war on words: Anything — be it a phrase or picture — that can be used to insult Xi has been banned”

Why does this sound so familiar?

And in 4 years, they'll be hosting another Olympics.

Shades of Adolph Hitler?

I saw his "welcome" message during the Closing Ceremonies of this Olympics. First thing I thought was , "This is not someone you want to cross". Guy gave me a case of the screamin' willies.

Yes just think about Comey and Meuller having that much power. (Well, Comey thought he had some, but he got canned.)

This has been going on for decades. It is nothing new.

McFly, In China you can't criticize the government.

And never, ever refer to the nearly glorified great leader as Panda Face. No don’t do it. Stop! Think it through! I beg you!

Oh and keep in mind when you are tempted to call Xi Jumpingjack Panda Face, that the previous Emperor, Mao, murdered 76 million of your former population ... Panda Face already has his book of sayings so he will have his murder record at some point - go ahead, call him Panda Face, make his day.
