It doesn't take much to send the pro-CCPers into a tizzy. Mention "Republic of China" or "Free Tibet" or "Universal Suffrage," and you might as well have slapped Mao and their granddads in the face. I wonder if the movie's going to be allowed to open in China now. It's been out here in Hong Kong for weeks, but it's opening date for China is June 20th.

I read this just today:

Put forward by late Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping in the early 1980s, the "one country, two systems" policy was aimed to realize the peaceful reunification of the country.

According to Deng, it means there is only but one China and under this premise the mainland adheres to socialist system while Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan may retain their capitalist systems over a long time to come. The policy was first applied to solve the question of Hong Kong.

That's right, China is allowing Taiwan to remain capitalistic for now, but they better not get uppity!

It's just a few cry babies on social media complaining about something that some American actress said. I doubt most people are even aware this happened.

And no one cares what Deng said in 1980

socialism has long since died an undignified death on the mainland.
