[Still Thinking]

Not the nicest people in the world (speaking of PLAN not Chinese in general) but they don’t suffer fools lightly.

Kinda goes together, doesn't it? Don't you have to be "nice" to suffer fools? (I realize they go somewhat beyond "not nice")

[TigersEye]

I respectfully disagree. I don't think it is necessary to be mean or malicious to firmly repudiate nonsense. I also believe it is true compassion to refuse, in no-uncertain terms, to participate in foolishness.

As for the ChiComs; yeah, they go just a tad beyond 'not nice.' 'Murdering thugs' would not be overstating it.
