To people who thought I were a spy

I am sorry if you feel frightened.
Sometimes we have debate about political issues, but we agree to disagree...I think we have too much difference and it won’t be easy for us to understand each other. China changes so quickly and I am sorry but many Americans still live in the past, of course, and because the American government used to so scared about the communism, the mass media have described China as a monster... we do have problems, but we are improving...for example, we can file a law suit against the government or the department irresponsible even in the central government, you can find the related news in Chinese, and the lawsuit is reported in different newspapers and the chances of winning is become bigger and bigger...

and it’s not easy for you guys to change your mind if you have not experienced the reality in China. Personally, I was so surprised about the ignorance of some of my foreign friends, they know so little about the real Chinese history (maybe it’s too long a history, maybe they just don’t care) , and what they say is all about human rights, about liberty, freedom that many of us are not so interested(actually those information are availabe on the internet like wiki, it’s said to be neutral) into this kind of topics since most of us are quite satisfied with the current situation.

We don’t have to prove anything, we have our advantages and disadvantages. Nobody’s superior. We should be proud of ourselves, proud of our own country, although we have our different problems to solve. The only thing is that we should respect others. Nobody likes those who don’t respect others.

Few here think that the recent Chinese posters are probably agents of the Chinese state, although it would hardly be surprising if one or more actually were. All of us humans are under the same sky. As the brave Russian Solzhenitsyn wrote:

“If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being.”

Thanks for posting.

It is signs like this that give us great hope for China. For a government to be fair it must be accountable to the people. Of all the nations that were communist only China has shown it can adapt with the changing times. That is why the others have mostly fallen. Hopefully your government will continue to improve in this way. Please understand that the mistrust Americans have for China is a mistrust of its government and not it's people or culture. We have many Chinese people here in America.
