回復 121# rockypath

What you has posted on #112 is the same old CCP  propaganda you keep repeating
every week.
"the “open door” policy allows the Chinese people to understand and learn what the modern democracy is; the increasing military strength protects China from the thread of foreign invasion and allows the Chinese to focus on its internal building both economically and politically; "
The CCP's worst nightmare is allowing the citizen to find out what actually happening
outside China,  do you really believe they are going to change automatically?
at least most people in HK would not. That is exactly the reason thousands of elite HK professionals decided to move oversea before 1997.
You keep reminding us that the western democracy took hundred years to mature,
and   implying that we need to wait for another 100 years? no,  we just demand the return of our right, which was stripped by the communist 61 years ago. There are hundreds of successful constitutional system  models  out there to learn from. Only you would believe that
the current political system in China is flawless and cannot be replaced

It is going to be the the 91 anniversary of the great May 4th Movement

The CCP will not give in easily therefore we need to remind them
not all Chinese are simple and naive

"On the afternoon of May 4th over 3,000 students of Peking University and other schools gathered together in front of Tiananmen and held a demonstration. The general opinion was that the Chinese government was "spineless"[1]. They voiced their anger at the Allied betrayal of China and the government's inability to secure Chinese interests in the conference. A boycott of Japanese products during this period was advocated, which boosted the domestic Chinese industry slightly.[citation needed] Throughout the streets of China, students packed the streets to protest China’s concession to Japanese demands. During these demonstrations, students also insisted on the resignation of three Chinese officials involved in these proceedings. After burning the residence of one of the three despised officials, student protesters were arrested and severely assaulted.[2]
They shouted out such slogans as "Struggle for the sovereignty externally, get rid of the national traitors at home",
The next day, students in Beijing as a whole went on strike, and students in other parts of the country responded one after another. From early June, in order to support the students' struggle, workers and businessmen in Shanghai also went on strike. The center of the movement moved from Beijing to Shanghai. In addition to students, a wide array of different groups also publicly displayed disagreement with the Chinese government. The lower class was also very angry at the current state of affairs, such as mistreatment of workers and perpetual poverty of small peasants. Chancellors from thirteen of China's tertiary institutions initiated the rescue of student prisoners. Congregations such as media outlets, citizen societies, and chambers of commerce offered their support for these students. Merchants further illustrated support for the students by resisting tax payments if China's government remained obstinate.[3] In Shanghai, these May Fourth events culminated into general strikes by merchants and workers that nearly devastated the entire Chinese economy.[2] Under intense public outcry, the Beiyang government had to release the arrested students and dismiss Cao Rulin, Zhang Zongxiang and Lu Zongyu from their posts."From wikipedia
We can always learn from the history, patriot students protested at Tiananmen  square on May 4, 1919 and June 4, 1989,
內除國賊，外爭國權，7o years after the May 4, the new breed of university students protested to end the corruption and got slaughtered.
