I found this rant online and thought it quite interesting...

Quote:

When We were called Sick man of Asia, We were called The Peril.

When We are billed to be the next Superpower, We are called The threat.

When We closed our doors, You smuggled Drugs to Open Markets.

When We Embrace Freed Trade, You blamed us for Taking away your jobs.

When We were falling apart, You marched in your troops and wanted your fair share.

When We were putting the broken pieces together again, Free Tibet you screamed, it was an invasion!

So, We Tried Communism, You hated us for being Communists.

When We embrace Capitalism, You hate us for being Capitalist.

When We have a Billion People, you said we were destroying the planet.

When We tried to limit our numbers, you said It was human rights abuse.

When We were Poor, You think we are dogs.

When We Loan you cash, You blame us for your debts.

When We build our industries, You called us Polluters.

When we sell you goods, You blame us for global warming.

When We buy oil, You called that exploitation and Genocide.

When You fight for oil, You called that Liberation.

When We were lost in Chaos and rampage, You wanted Rules of Law for us.

When We uphold law and order against Violence, You called that Violating Human Rights.

When We were silent, You said you want us to have Free Speech.

When We were silent no more, You say we were Brainwashed Xenophobics.

Why do you hate us so much? We asked.

No, You Answered, We dont hate You.

We dont Hate You either, But Do you understand us?

Of course We do, You said, We have AFP, CNN and BBC

What do you really want from us?

[Zipperfish]

Quit whining?

What does the West want with China?

Hot mail order brides, less toxic cheesey products, unlimited ginseng and the destruction of Communism.

If you can't deliver those few things....... STFU.

Don't you want the ginseng before the hot mail order bride?

And the Chinese are Communists in name only. China these days is about one thing and one thing only...money.

Quit putting toxins into the pet food and lead paint all over the kids toys that you ship to us and maybe we can get this all worked out. Heard the latest doozy? People in new homes/condos in the US are getting all sorts of sick from the turns-out-to-be-contaminated drywall that was used during construction. Take one guess as to where said toxic drywall originally came from.

Until the Chinese stop doing this sort of shit to their end-use customers then we should boycott them and all the garbage they ship to us. They aren't our buddies until they quit trying to kill the consumers of their products with their negligence and with what are wilfully malicious business practices. 'Nuff said.

Okay, I'll change it to Ginseng, then mail order brides.

Money notwithstanding, I still stand by my destruction of communism statment. Granted they're making a start, half capitalist mostly communist but the one party elections and no freedom of speech still smacks of a socialist utopia.

Without the Russians as primary enemies, and makin terrorists foolhardy at best, it is collective human nature to begin hating on the next guys who don't agree with us.

In this case, with china undercutting all the western workers, poisoning our kids with their cheap products, spying revelations, massive industrial espionage, disregard for patents, etc. They are showing themselves to eb the next Enemy, and I hope that we continue to warm our relations with India in the future, especially if Russia and China take sides.

We fall all over ourselves to save another penny at WalMart, gut our own ideals, turn consumer protection into a joke closing inspection agencies and it's China's fault for making lead painted toys.
WalMart is completely blameless for buying them, shipping them across the planet and selling them to us....

[ridenrain]

I'm guessing that wasn't freely written by someone in China but from some communist media think tank. I'd like to talk with the people of China without their criminal government taking notes.

[DerbyX]

You should worry about talking to your own party without Harper dictating whats said before you go off on yet another rant about China thinly disguised as criticism for the government (a govt who didn't make a pop video).

Better yet tell us how successful you would be governing 1.4 billion people when your own party can't even manage to agree about a former PM

Worry about your own life, your own party and our own country before you whine about another.

[Lemmy]

I'll have an almond guy-ding, wanton soup, lemon chicken, mushroom-fried rice and a couple of egg rolls.

[DerbyX]

With six you get egg roll.

[Lemmy]

then lay the General's 5-star chicken and some sweet'n'sour spare ribs on the order too.
