I understand perfectly *WhoFlungDung*, freedom of the press is your greatest
fear.
It will eventually erode the communist's hold on the Chinese people.
It can't happen soon enough.

You are too ideological, as long as the Communists do a reasonable
good job, its hold on power, Chinese people, whatever, will be just

pro-government and anti-West after he/she is exposed to freedom of
expression.
