Free speech! Democracy! Freedom to not listen to those with free speech!
GOD bless America!!!
Now that I have said all that, I'm prepared to write horrible things about the evil nation of China. I can safely say anything, without fear of someone in China seeing this blog.
Google has now launched their search engine in China. To do so, they agreed with the Chinese government to censor search results. People in China going to google and search for Democracy will only see results approved by the government. If a Chinese person does a Google search for Taiwanese independence, they will only see what their government wants them to see.
Some wacko groups have complained that Google should not have done that. My complaint is not against Google. They are a business, they are FREE to run that business however they see fit. The problem is obviously with CHINA.
China is the Evil Empire. They are the head of the axis of evil (and a cheaply made one at that). We will have another cold war in the future. That war will be with the monster that is known as China. Population over one billion people and building their military might. They are the ones to watch.
They control everything. E*V*E*R*Y*T*H*I*N*G! The newspaper is government run. The television is government run.
If there was a case of bird flu in the country, they would not report it. They said it may cause a panic. Now they showed that they will have control over the internet. Do you think people in China can have a blog? Can they write whatever they want, like we do?
Go to Google and search for Tiananmen Square. See what you come up with. Nobody in China will ever see what you see. They have been blinded by the government.
At least in America, when our government is corrupt and doing bad things, we all know about it. In China, it goes on without anyone knowing the difference. I feel bad for the people of Hong Kong. They lived for so long as a British colony and had their freedoms. They had Democracy. It was sad when that lease ended and the EVIL Empire absorbed Hong Kong.
So don't be mad at Google for making a business decision. They are trying to get people all the information they can.
If you ignore everything I have written, I don't care. Just be sure you appreciate your freedom. Appreciate everyone who wears a uniform. . .for you.

Yeah . . . that's just a tough one. It's up to the Chinese, though, to free themselves (remembering fondly the falling of the Berlin Wall).
