This is why we should tell the truth about China

Awaiting a Democratic Hong Kong.

This is a comment I got on my site regarding "Hong Kong Holds candle light vigil for Tiananmen Victims.

"there is no comments or reports about this thing, why? i feel very hard to understand!

i mean in China. I am a student in Jiang Su provice.I want
to know more about six-four accident! please give me Email!Thank you!"

I deleted the original message to remove the email and IP address. I am asking this person to use proxies and have a separate email address for us to continue this conversation. I want so badly to talk to this person but I am afraid it might get him or her into trouble.

This is what it means to live in a Totaritarian Regime. This is what it means to have history written out. This is what censorship means.

This is why I shall tell the truth in the interview today. This is why I do Glutter.

  1. Some people lives inside the Matrix and not realize it. You and I live in the real world and trying to convince people into the real world. And some people simply prefer to live in the Matrix.
    Sorry I am a big Matrix fans.
