do you know this for a fact, or is it just something you think because it makes you ‘feel good’ to say it? The Dali Llama has asked for true autonomy, not outright independence. Meanwhile, China is systematically eradicating Tibetan culture, bringing in Han Chinese to overwhelm the population (a form of ethnic cleansing) and raping their land of natural resources. Yeah, just like our black population. If you love the concept of freedom at all (and I am not sure that you do) then you would do well to support the Dali Llama.

Well, I’ve had an Asian roommate for about 3 years and my ex-boss was from a billionaire feudal Chinese family who fled to Taiwan with the gold. He sees the Chinese as cold heartless uncultured mafia type folks who rule as typical communist do. Having had friends from Mainland China, I tend to agree. Moreover, as he stated, the reason China lost the war was China’s indifference to Japanese atrocities (the Chinese elite viewed them as just numbers in an on-going war) but as many Vietnamese later discovered, being under communist is far worst than being ruled by the elite. In short, I’m pro Taiwan and definitely against all forms of communism based of seeing it’s destruction first hand.

Having had the “pleasure” of growing-up black in inner city New Orleans and continuing with that identity until my late 20s, I think the civil rights movement and shift to the empowerment of black Reverends (including MLK) did what slavery and Jim Crow couldn’t do, it destroyed black America (black America should have gone the Thurgood Marshal route to become mainstream Americans).

Having said way too much already, I tend to think that for humans to select a chosen “God on earth” at 2 years old and to have this “God” implement his will by unseen, unchecked men, to have this “God” live a disconnected life from reality, to watch this “God’s” followers kill with CIA furnished weapons and to have the people being supported (by China) as welfare recipients (because they haven’t developed under this “God”) is a bit too much and reminds me of black America. Furthermore, to have it’s people’s life expectancy increase from 35 to 65, to open the culture via a train from China and to bring education and individual hope to it’s people is a good thing, albeit from communist China and against “Gods little helpers” (“God” said he’s half Buddhist half Marxist)
