    Well, he has a point. Have you been to China lately? Their system is really more a Nationalistic Capitalist system than communist these days.

    ...and to add, I agree that punishment for waving a finger has little to do with China. He would get punished in the NBA too.

    Fine then - China's a semi-capitalist totalitarian state that routinely censors its media - we all agree on this, right?

    As for the finger incident, the league has a right to bust him on that.

    No, it's not joke. If you guys can spend a couple of months in China, you will know that USA now is 10 time more communismic than China today.

    This shows you're a brainwashed little dumbass with no capability of independent thinking.
    Does the name "communist part" necessarily mean China is a communist country now?
    I know this is way beyond your tiny brain cells can handle. So what waste time?

    agree.

    It is amazing that how deeply people are brainwashed, consider you have so much freedom of speech.

    I agree with you on the facts.
    China's brainwashing has been too blatant and obvious so that Chinese would tend to disbelieve what the Chinese government has to say.
    On the other hand, the US brainwashing is a lot more advanced and more sophisticated. Idiots such as some on this BBS couldn't even tell it's a brainwash.

    So, technically speaking, China is not ruled by a communist regime? Sorry, China is TECHNICALLY one of five communist countries remaining in the world.

    No, I haven't been there, and no, I'm not disputing that, theoretically, some aspects of the governing entity could be less communistic that our own U.S. government.

    I'm done with you and spooky-tree-hugger. This isn't the debate forum.

    Do some research before you start calling people names.

    Politically, China is as Communist as ever.

    For example, just about every Chinese bank is state-owned, so the government decides which businesses and individuals will get the most favorable loans. The media are entirely state-owned as well. Also, every square inch of land in the country still belongs to the government (People and businesses can own houses and other property.).

    And my favorite part;

    Government workers must be Communist Party members.
