I mean, Jimmy Carter wrote about Palestine and apartheid, but I totally missed it. Anna Beltzer's videos shocked me, and I am so ashamed! Who knows why this sort of thing occurs. We need to speak up about it though. You know, I don't know why we don't see it. I mean, Jimmy Carter wrote about Palestine and apartheid, but I totally missed it.

Maybe this whole thing will make us all turn a corner of some sort. Some censorship is good (kiddie porn, for example, should always be illegal). Oppression is never good. People seem to find their way through it. It may take thousands of years, but people seem to catch on eventually, no matter what. Let's hope things in China go toward a peaceful solution that doesn't involve oppression. Liu Mang, thanks for this insight. Maybe this whole thing will make us all turn a corner of some sort.

I'm not being imperialist. In fact, I'm not even making judgments. I'm just wondering what information will do to a culture.The down sides of the Western world are apparent to anyone who looks for them. I can understand the Chinese government's logic, I'm just wondering what the open google searches will do to it. James, it has crossed my mind. I'm not being imperialist.

(Speaking about the Palestinian article) But I wonder about our media here a lot overall. We get a lot of coverage on Lindsay Lohan, and the Leno-Conan wars. But they skip over this type of info. I think it makes people skeptical of anything they see in the media. I wonder why the media here doesn't show us this.

The Party has stifled their people for too long. Now they're trying to censor the rest of the world too. I laud Google for their decision, but it's not enough to combat this VERY SERIOUS THREAT TO THE INTERNET WORLD-WIDE. It is in the best interest of Google's stockholders to fight back and floodping, phish and worm the Chinese military back to the stone age.

You have to bribe the cops to protect you from muggers (they're too busy beating the s*it out of same-sex couples and mentally handicapped folks). The city infrastructures are a total mess.

The time for action is NOW. The “Chinese” (particularly ethnic minorities, but even many Han) are sick and tired of being treated this way. They are tired of being held back in the conceptual kindergarten of “guided opinion”.

Google, you made the right choice! Now back it up. It's not evil to show some teeth!

That perhaps they love to protect their society from the vices of the degenerate West? Do you ever stop to think that perhaps democracy, as the West preaches it, might not be relevant to a country like China with a very unique past? A little opening up of the mind would help a lot....some people need to realize that their form of democracy aint a panacea to the world's governance issues.
