FAK China

Bloggers Beware!

Isn’t this lovely? According to a University of Washington report, every year more and more bloggers are being arrested and prosecuted for committing the felonious ‘crime’ of freedom of speech. More than half the arrests since 2003 occurred in some of our favorite countries like China, Iran, and Egypt where you could be sentenced to jail time for daring to say: WHAT THE FAK especially regarding the naughty topics like human rights abuses and government corruption. Gee, if these governments aren’t guilty of such things, then why are they punishing those who expose them? I think we’re seeing a great exhibit of the old saying: The more they deny it, the more you know it to be true. Just think Bush administration folks. Every time W or his boys assure us something is more definitely not true, what do we find to be absolutely wholeheartedly true? That which he denied the most vehemently of course!

When the Easter bunny and Cadbury eggs simply aren't enough.....

Beware this Easter: Crucifixion could be hazardous to your health

I’m all for the Easter bunny and Easter egg hunt for the kids but some seem to feel it more festive to hang from the cross just like their hero Jesus allegedly did many eons ago. Firstly, the whole Jesus story is questionable in itself. Personally I find the story hard to buy and if you watch films like The God Who Wasn’t There, there is a long list of things that don’t add up and poke enough holes in what I deem the best fictional story of all time, the Jesus fable, to make it look like Swiss cheese or Boris Yeltsin's liver.

Could you please stop bending over backwards for China?

So unless you live in isolation or just returned from an expedition to the Amazon, you must know what is currently going on in Tibet. To put in mildly, Tibetans had enough of their Chinese oppressors and demand independent. Apparently, China invaded Tibet 50 years ago and claim it as part of China.

It seems that Chinese always thought that Tibet is part of their country. However, Tibetans for some bizarre and unexplained reason never quite agreed with that claim. They must be bonkers. I mean why wouldn't somebody want to be part of the great People's Republic of China? After all, China is such a democratic place where human rights take uppermost priority, NOT.
