China: Door “Closed” on the International Adoption of Chinese Children! (6.9.2024)

After China’s Reform and Opening Up of the early 1980s, Americans adopted thousands of Chinese orphans, which on the surface became a good story in the history of Sino-US exchanges, but which was used by the US to cast all kinds of negative allegations onto the the Chinese Socialist System. Even before this – from the second half of the 19th century to the 1930s – there was also a social trend of large-scale adoption of Chinese orphans in the US, known as the “Orphan Train Movement”. This is odd – as the “Chinese Exclusion Act” was passed by the US government in 1882 – designed to keep all Chinese people “OUT” of the US! This was the first Act in history to exclude a group of people entirely premised on their “race” – and is an Act that has been subsequently used across the Western world as a template for all xenophobic legislation.

Paris Para-Olympics: BBC Celebrates “Non-Chinese” Victory! (6.9.2024)

The BBC “celebrates” that the “Chinese” Para-Olympic Athlete – Gao Gang (高芳) – was defeated, not as an opposing sportsperson, but simply because she happens to be “Chinese”! The reality is that the capitalist West does not value people with disability – as their minds and bodies are considered “unexploitable” from a typical commercial perspective – or if exploitable, to a far lesser degree then a person considered “able”, and so on. This is why the capitalists have referred to disabled people as being “Invalids” – that is a “person without validity”. Nothing has changed in essence – despite much appearing to change on the surface. I fully support all people with disabilities – including Sammi Kinghorn (what an achievement) – but I do not accept BBC racism disguised as sporting commentary. Furthermore, people with disabilities are stronger joining together in an “Internationalist” collective – rather than separating into competing camps of Bourgeois spite, pettiness, and reaction. Socialist China values people with disabilities – the capitalist West does not – and this is demonstrated through the PRC’s total domination of the Medal Table at the Paris Para-Olympics!

Internal Refugees in China!

China: Socialist Plan Focuses on Care of “Migrant Children”! (5.9.2024)

The government has adopted a “zero tolerance” policy toward any behavior that infringes on the rights of migrant children, especially violence, sexual assault, school bullying and cybercrime.

Li Feng, an official from the Supreme People’s Procuratorate, emphasized the need for interagency cooperation to protect children’s rights.

“We will urge parents or guardians to fulfill their duties and provide family education guidance whenever we find any behavior that harms children’s rights,” Li said. “We will also work closely with civil affairs bureaus to support migrant children who live alone without proper guardianship.”

Li added that procuratorates will offer judicial aid to migrant children involved in criminal cases and provide financial allowances as needed. For children who have been victims of assault, they will provide living support and psychological assistance.

China: List Unveiled of WWII US Anti-Japanese Aviator Casualties! (4.9.2024)

Margaret Kincannon, the daughter of a Flying Tigers veteran, believes that the example of cooperation with the Flying Tigers can be used today, “because if they could do it at that time with the differences in culture and language, then we can do it now.”

The Nanjing Anti-Japanese Aviation Martyrs Memorial Hall is China’s first international anti-Japanese aviation martyrs memorial hall. Its collection contains rich historical materials about the air forces of China, the Soviet Union, the United States and other countries that were jointly fighting against the Japanese invaders in China during the Second World War. The names of nearly 4,300 Chinese and foreign anti-Japanese aviation martyrs are engraved on the monument in the memorial hall.

Far-Right Win Election in Germany!

East Germany: Far-Right “Alternative für Deutschland” Wins Thuringia State Election! (2.8.2024)

The misrepresentation of East Germany was nothing but an attack on the process of Anti-Fascist activity – a policy which still exists today (“Anti-Fascism” is the enemy of humanity). Furthermore, as the East German population benefitted from their Socialist System – the US perpetuated the myth of “mass rape” against German women carried-out by the Soviet Red Army – an atrocity no one in Germany (the supposed effective areas) new anything about. Anthony Beevor in the UK – whose work is banned in Russia – inserted this false narrative into his 1992 book regarding the “Fall of Belin”! Since 1992, the US has pumped anarchy, hedonism, far-right ideology and extremist religion into East Germany – the same policy that was followed in Russia and the former Soviet Union to the rise of Putin (who put an end to it). This is why the “far-right” has finally won a liberal, democratic election in East Germany.
