Yo, kindergarten kids. It's okay that you don't know shit about China. Maybe you'll learn more about it when you go to school.

But in the meantime, maybe stop making yourself look like complete idiots with your sweeping generalizations about the Chinese government (basically fascists!), the Chinese people (obedient worker ants! only good at copying our stuff!) (not said in this thread, but the wall observer thread) and Chinese media (propaganda! nothing but propaganda!).

To give you a feel for what you guys sometimes sound like when you discuss China, go watch a propaganda flick like "Zeitgeist", and consider how it relates to your mental representation of the United States:

If it kind of matches what you think of the US and the world, in all its glorious, paranoid naivete, then carry on. Your understanding of China is good enough.

If however you cringe about simplistic bullshit like Zeitgeist, be aware that your mental image of China seems to have about the same complexity.
