I definitely learned a lot from this blog. I am curious about the average age of the viewers, since the "big events" you mentioned are a little bit far from my own life. As a matter of fact, I knew nothing at all about Liu Si until I visited the US in 02. When a history teacher described to me how the students were trampled to death, I was shocked and felt as if he was telling a story about another country. Apparently, some people from the older generation are reluctant to disclose the truth and their personal opinions. Were the students actually trying to sabotage GCD's rule or was it a nonviolent demonstration?
No doubt that Chinese are discriminated in US. The real tragedy is that Chinese are treated worse in China than in US. I support Olympics but do not like GCD.
I wish that majority of Chinese people are the real first class citizen in their motherland.
乡亲啊，爱之深，痛之切！
六四之时，本该说点什么，但又不知如何说起；奥运临近，本应兴奋不已，但如同胃里不适，high不起来。老共对六四的残暴，不堪回首，绝不忘记。对北京奥运的造闹，不忍目睹，就想躲着。
四川赈灾，政府还算得力，和唐山地震相比，政府进步很多，又由衷地热爱祖国，热爱祖国人民。
爱党（政治），爱国，爱人民，爱文化是不同的，但又这样纠缠不清。
生、身两个不同的两度，让我们有这样复杂、矛盾、丰富的高级情感，此生不枉兮。I'm with you on that. One world 不假，one dream 不可能。
Weiguanshenghuo, I just realised that I missed some of your comments. For a guy who studies physics, you seem a bit emotional :-) Much easier to be a bystander as your blog name suggests (If I understood you correctly).
Also, sorry if we have made too much noise in your "house". You are obviously a man's man, have a soft spot for girls but don't worry, I am not afraid of bullies.
What an useful reminder from Yangzijiang and thoughtful suggestion from his follower sanfanshiyuji. Actually, there are various theories about Wangte. Some people say that every time you log on, Wangte get paid, the more you read the more Wangte get paid. Others say Wangtes live in your mind and as long as you breath, they get paid. Wangte are everywhere and get paid so well that they are now the major factor behind the recent inflation. To stop Wangte get paid, actions such as "never log on internet", "log on but cover your eyes with a table cloth", "stop imagining", "stop breathing" or even "try virtual sex if you can't get it in real life" as helpfully suggested by sanfanshiyuji can be taken, depending what theories you believe.

谢谢你的详细补充，我们都知道白澳政策下的澳洲是什么样的.Australia disgrace ourselves, 就是现在土著的average life expectancy is far below third world countries. Isn't basic human right determined by life expectancy?

是啊，我希望我的孩子不要有identity crisis, 所以要从我自己做起 - 我要做一个自豪的海外华人，我总是告诉我的孩子‘I am proud of being Chinese.’如果我们自己都看不起中国，那么我们的孩子们呢？中国是有很多问题，但老话怎么说来着‘子不嫌母丑’。。。

qinning, If being perfect is the qualification one needs to speak up, no one in this world is qualified to criticise anything. Maybe I can help you with your argument - were you really meant to say that China is doing better in the human rights department than Australia?

Weiguanshenghuo, thanks for letting me write on your blog. I look forward to more stories....they really make us laugh.
Banshi, I don't have the software to type Chinese - now, am I forgiven for writing in English? Your party analogy is interesting. The fact is that the olympic is one big political game. Obviously the Tibetans feel that this is a good opportunity for them to be heard by the world, maybe the only chance. A bit like those farmers going to Beijing Shangfang. We probably will never agree with each other. Personally I have a soft spot for the weaker, the disadvantaged and the like, and to me, this is exactly what Tibetans are.
Yangzijiang, the head of Australia is the Queen. When she was asked the question about Australia's future in term of being a republic or part of commonwealth, she said it is up to the Australian. If the Australian aboriginals want to be independant, my view is that they should be allowed to vote. I am not aware of any significant independance movement in Australia. Are you? Maybe you can go back and re-read my posts.
Sanfanshiyuji, I said "this kind of attitude is just plain stupid". You read it as "people with this kind of attitude are just plain stupid". I forgive you for misinterpreting my words. Furthermore, I give you permission to stay and talk. I disagree with what you said but I defend your right to speak up, especially given that you have taken all your time to read my posts, possibly combating severe tiredness along the way. But, if you do it again, my friend who used to be a red guard and now CPP party faithful will most definitely tell you to shut the f***up and P***off. Oh, nasty! We don't want that, do we? Not on this lovely blog.

请收起你言论中的“This kind of attitude is just plain stupid.”之类的辱骂字眼。你有你的观点，别人有别人的观点。即使你支持藏独，这里的人都很客气的跟你就事论事，讨论。倒是你自己骂起别人来。
另外，你把你那篇关于澳洲的言论到那么多讨论的贴子里贴了那么多遍累不累啊？悠着点，别累坏了。不然大家认识不到什么叫“逢中必反”的人怎么办啊？至于你的观点就不反驳了，公道自在人心。
如果你不能约束自己的言行，那就"Go away!" "Shut up your ing mouth!"

你的论点好像有道理，但是不对啊！
Australia = Tibet? 当然不对，相对应的应该是Aborigines = Tibetans. Australia = China.
你说澳洲要脱离女王共和，没错啊，中国也是共和国啊。
问题是你说Tibetans will never be allowed to vote?那么是不是澳洲的Aborigines are allowed to vote to be independant? 英国佬不是占领着澳洲？谁是澳洲的主人？土著还是西方人？独立？谁应该独立？
西方也许比东方民主，但是在国家主权方面我看没人会容忍分裂。魁北克也没有独立啊。

你说的很真实，也代表了我们大部分的心声（当然也有人反对的，他们一心以为自己变成了西方人了）。是的，我们永远也改不了我们的Chinese Identity，（就是那些自认为变成西方人的人，其实在西方人的眼里，还是Chinese.)
知道第四代ABC一露脸鬼佬怎么看？嘿嘿，still classified as Asian, 没办法的，你不认也不行，那个长相改不了。。。
既然我们改不了Chinese Identity，我们就只能爱她了，因为那是生我们养我们的地方，是我们的根。是的，中国还是有很多问题，但是我们希望我们的祖国会越来越好，更加强大！

Isn't it great that we can protest without worrying about what's going to happen to us and our family? That's the main reason why many people choose to leave China and live in the U.S. Our rights and freedom are protected - how I wish this for everyone including Tibetans and Chinese living in China.
Olympic is being used as a huge showcase for the Chinese government, a huge political game. Not that there is anything wrong with promoting China but the fact is it is a political game.
A lot of people here are so defensive. Their attitude seems to be "only we Chinese can criticise China. We will hate anyone who criticises China. All western media are biased against China....." This kind of attitude is just plain stupid.
orange is not equal to pear, blank is blank, white is white, no matter CNN or CCTV, nothing can change the truth.
American wolf can not be changed to asian goat, it may interested to know sheep for the purposes of eat her as his meal.
asian goat may interested to have a close look at american wolf in the zoo!!! Dont dream about romance.

There have been a lot of protests by "Chinese" holding American/Canadian/whatever passports recently. What are they protesting against? Protesting against Tibetans' right to protest against Chinese government? You don't think this is hypocritical?
It would probably be only few years before Australia becomes a repulican country. When Australian prime minister Kevin Rudd raised the issue with the Queen on his visit to English recently, her answer was: it is up to the Australian people. Tibetans will never be allowed to vote. You think this is fair?
WeiGuanShengHuo, first of all, I am a fan :-) You are very funny, and quite an independant thinker. But, like most people here, you are a bit hot headed when it comes to China. Don't tell me you love China so much that you have to give up your Chinese citizenship to be an American, or you have to stay in the u.s.. I am not saying you don't love China. But you did choose the U.S. over China. It is easy to love China from distance. If you live there everyday, you would probably hate it. What made you leave the country in the first place? You probably had a dream like most of us, be it for money, freedom, knowledge...the bottom line is that we all left for better. Have we done better? Obviously or we would all now be back in China. Chinese say "ren wang gao chu zhou, shui wang di chu liu". My point is: I found the title of your article and the conclusion a bit offputting (rouma). Oh, please, my China heart......

实在写的太好了，不会往别处贴，借您的坛子。
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 were closed our doors, You smuggled Drugs to Open Markets. When We Embrace Freed Trade, You blame 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 peices together again, Free Tibet you screamed, it was an invasion! ( When Woodrow Wilson Couldnt give back Birth Place of Confucius back to Us, But He did bought a ticket for the Famine Relief Ball for us.) 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 are tried limited 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-Xenophoics.
Why do you hate us so much? We asked. Why chose a time that every chinese is looking forward to a great event welcome all west people and show the world the progress we made these years, why chose a time like that to insult the chinese, i believe though loads of problems exist, as long as we are progressing in a reasonable pace, we should be encouraged in stead of being put more pressure.

really sorry. I know hearts were hurt deeply.I am sure gov will give the most students fair evaluation in coming future.Maybe it is the right time when most of us really know stable is the most important thing for our country, I think. We have already known that.Some pity in history, but now we have to go forward.My elder bother joined, he told me some,whatever the result that's honour because of the pure heart. Thanks!
I agree with you! support!!! We need evolution, not revolution. Push our government improve themself is the best way for our country.We don't need the west give us freedom and democracy, we will achive it by ourself.I am sure gov will learn from mistakes and go forward better in the future.Actually we have more and more freedom and democracy year by year.
