   “The standard excuse for China not becoming fully democratic is that ‘it is too big.’ ”

   He obviously heard this from Taiwanese or capitalists. Or he heard this from someone who is ignorant about Communism.

   Half of Communism is about democracy. To say that Communism is not democracy is about as ignorant as saying “Islam is a violent religion”. It doesn’t mean that a country declaring itself to be communist is democracy from day 1. It has to move towards democracy o/w it will not fulfill the socialist revolution. In other words, the journey of a Communist state is not complete until it fully implements Democracy.

   Democracy is one of the pillars of Communism. A Communist who rejects Democracy is not a true communist. A Communist who rejects Democracy must be sent to reeducation camp. Communism without Democracy is not Communism.

   To quote from Albert Einstein:
   http://www.monthlyreview.org/598einst.htm
   “Nevertheless, it is necessary to remember that a planned economy is not yet socialism. A planned economy as such may be accompanied by the complete enslavement of the individual. The achievement of socialism requires the solution of some extremely difficult socio-political problems: how is it possible, in view of the far-reaching centralization of political and economic power, to prevent bureaucracy from becoming all-powerful and overweening? How can the rights of the individual be protected and therewith a DEMOCRATIC COUNTERWEIGHT to the power of bureaucracy be assured?”

   It was Hitler - a man who despises Communism who said it was evil because Communism was democratic:

   “The Jewish doctrine of Marxism rejects the aristocratic principle of Nature and replaces the eternal privilege of power and strength by the mass of numbers and their dead weight. Thus it denies the value of personality in man, contests the significance of nationality and race, and thereby withdraws from humanity the premise of its existence and its culture. As a foundation of the universe, this doctrine would bring about the end of any order intellectually conceivable to man. ”
   Chapter 2 of Mein Kampf, 3rd paragraph from last.

   There you have it. Any Chinese citizens out there who rejects democracy is an anti-communist. Report him to the PSB immedietly so that he can be re-educated.

   “A Communist who rejects Democracy must be sent to reeducation camp.” Mahathir_fan. I assume that your definition of democracy does not include the right to dissent from the Party line. And apparently, its citizens the right to think for themselves. If we cannot differ from the Party line, how can we have a democracy?
