These people are PURE EVIL.
They want Americans that disagree with them first silenced, then tracked, and then rounded up, and then, apparantly, lined up and shot--if they are true to their heroes and role models. I truly believe this now.
Fee says it must be a Chinese thing.
I think it’s more a human thing, some thing that
happens when you give power to some people and they
find they can use it for personal gratification.
Also, reading this thread reminded me of my younger
days as an itinerant musician, I was living in Seattle
as an apprentice to a musical instrument maker.
I lived in a boarding house and one of the other tenants
was a Maoist, yet he worked in a bank. I used to rag him
about it but he always came back that he was working
on the inside of capitalism to tear it down.
Thinking about this today I realized this man today
would have been my age and could have been a influential
bank president by now.
Fee’s mention of the relatives of the KMT making loans
to the peasants they couldn’t repay creating anger at
the ruling class is so reminiscent of the real estate
collapse of today, I have to wonder if it was not planned
that way from the very beginning?
Also thank you for your very insightful posts,
one of the things I like about FR is talking
with conservative people who live in other countries.
Your FRiend Tet.
Yes, yes, yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
