China Ready to Crack Down on Freedom

Posted by Douglas V. Gibbs

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union was always labeled the "bad communists," and China was the "good communists."  Richard Nixon traveled to China in hopes of working out treaties with them.

China reminded us how communism actually works, even when being applied by the "good communists," during the Tiananmen Square confrontation in 1989.  Now, the Chinese communists are ready to pull those silly capitalists in Hong Kong and Taiwan back into the controlling arms of mainland Communist China.
