So all you guys know that China is hosting the 2008 Olympics. What you don't know is how many Chinese peeps, especially in the U.S are supporting the Olympics. My mom is one of them...

Here is her direct quote on what she said about China's Olympics( well not a direct quote but pretty damm near on what she said.)
" I am so happy that China is hosting the Olympics, now no one will make fun of the Chinese anymore".

No, she is Chinese.
 
many older chinese people are nationalistic and just so happy to see china gain strength that they basically turn a blind eye to everything else.
getting anti tibet aka official commie government propaganda about the wests lies and misrepresentation youtube video links emailed to you during the recent protests by relatives is always annoying.

Well I mean China is one of the most corrupted countries in the world. But I mean we live in the U.S and she still not willing to cut her mind off that nationalist crap.
 
a lot of chinese people that I know are way too proud of being Chinese that they don't care about all that crap happening in China. All they think about are the great things of China - not the tons of bad things
 
My mom: "I wouldn't be there. There's going to be a terrorist attack. It's 8,8, 08."
My dad: "What?! What does that mean? Friday is going to 7, 4, 08. You better be careful. :roll:"
 
a friend of mine living in Oregon was born in Tibet and he could give a rats ass about whats happening there with China.

Yes, I'm sure the US government officials don't take bribes. Oh wait, they don't, they have a special term for that, it's called contribution. :roll:

Dumb ass people, you know I with people like this would just leave the USA!!!
I dont care what country they are from.
 
I think the Olympics have a lot of people looking at China who were not before. They're gonna see the pollution, the protesters, etc. I think there will be a lot of people who never gave China much thought who will now have a negative opinion of it.

its a side effect of having a circle of friends that is mostly from the old country for the older folks. plus modern ease of travel....the chinese government brain wash reaches past its borders now. despite the shiny buildings...its like america if americans had their searches for things like guantonamo bay blocked, and the media was heavily censored and state education was government approved "history". imagine how patriotic americans would be if that were the case. frankly its rather a dangerous situation.
