I was brownsing CNN today, and its quick survey of the day is: "If you had the chance, would you want to go to the Olympics in Beijing?" To my big surprise, a whopping 69 percent of people voted No.
So let me get this straight America, despite the fact that this coming Olympic games is set in the biggest country in asia, home to one fifth of worlds population. A country that has a history 25 times of the US. You also wouldn't check out - the fastest growing economy in the world, the up and coming, biggest competitor in EVERY SINGLE aspect to United States. A big economic power thats making its best effort to collaborate with US and downplaying the "competitor" role by buying massive amounts of boeing airplanes and pushing the crappiest GM cars to its citizens. No, all you can think about is how the monks are treated in Tibet, people, get over it, I've been to tibet, Monks were never mistreated, what happened in the 50s and 80s were monks trying to make Tibet independent, they were rioting with fucking rifles and grenades, violent riot will meet with swift law enforcement, that happens every where. Tibet's BEEN Chinas for close to 300 freaking years, if you think Tibet is independent, you might as well give back Alaska, California, Nevada, New Mexico at least! I can not believe how many ignorant people are out there claiming they're liberals and act unbelievably sheltered.
Travel abroad, visit the place before you can cast some opinion. Otherwise, you're just dumb.
