China leads the world forward!

An ancient proverb of China says: above a few sunken ships, thousands of sails will come and go. Now, beside the trashes littered in space, a superb ship guided by true players in space ¨C those from China ¨C has appeared in space.
At a critical moment, China pulls it off, re-gaining the initiative of the human adventure, and enabling the sons and daughters of the Great Yellow River to re-assume the chief responsibility of human progress. Now the proto- space age has ended, and the true space age has begun.
We cannot forget that for about a century, barbarians all around the world staged a bizarre rebellion. They wielded the weapons of opium and gun-boats, and bullied the centerland and fringes of civilizations.
For about a century, they made it appear more glorious to be a barbarian than a person of civilization. What a nightmare! Now it has ended.
Today, together, we wish you the best, China. The world is yours. Lead us forward in this new millennium, just like you did, all along!
Bye, the century of rebellion and barbarianism. Welcome to the new millennium of civilization.
The Ronald Reagan Debacle

In the 1980s, the Soviet Union was not much closer to socialism than, say, Israel. The golden hue of the Lenin and Stalin era had long faded, and tides of revolutionary progress receded. State management of the society and the economy had been imitated all around the world, especially in US and UK; social welfare had been matched in Norway and Sweden; employment security had seen duplicates in Japan and Korea.
In the old socialist world, China has since arguably replaced the Soviet Union as the new big brother. The first Cultural Revolution in China finished off the bits and pieces of the old regime without bloodshed, whose success was followed by a rapid economic boom to match the previous boom in social and political affairs.
Things did not go well for the old big brother. However, at least as it took on the world, the Soviet Union was getting more and more aggressive, and occasionally explosive.
As US and other vandalists and imperialists were being driven out of the Far East, the Middle East and Mesoamerica, the Soviet Union lost most of its spiritual and material grounds in the row with US and Europe. All that remained was some sort of hollow inertia, dressed up in borrowed slogans.
It was at this time that Ronald Reagan came to the stage. He was probably not smart. But he was a bull dog, more ready to take on the Soviet Union than most of Americans and Europeans. And it appeared he won some scores during his presidency.
However, given him all the deserved and undeserved credits as far as the Soviet Union goes, he was the one who helped to launch a reactionary movement in US and Europe, which is still rampant. Together, the reactionaries reversed the course of history, and plunged US and Europe into a new permanent phase of decline.
The growth of US economy slowed down from an average of about 3% to about 1%, if you average out the rates since the mid-1970s. Franklin Roosevelt¡¯s New Deal set on a track to debacle. Availability of higher education was chunk by chunk sliced smaller, until it costs all that a family can squeeze out of their diet for 20 years. As the baby boomers came to their ripe ages, they found themselves without prescription drugs, and within long lines waiting for prescribed surgery. All the breakthroughs in science and technology disappeared. One after another, capitalist economies deflated in the Far East and Eastern Europe. Japan and Germany and the whole Europe have been in trouble for about a decade, already. We can trace all these trends to Ronald Reagan, to say the least.
It was in his years that US industries were finally thrashed after leading the world for about 100 years. Motor vehicles like cars and trucks made in Germany and Japan replaced those made in US as the most popular models of the world. International Business Machines and Hewlett-Packard lost out to K-mart and Walmart. A long string of US bubbles jumped out of their nests: the iron and steel industry; the textile industry; chemicals; drugs; television; home and office electronics; ¡­ and recently telecommunication; machinery; ¡­ so on and so forth. We can trace all these trends to Ronald Duck, to say the least.
Nowadays the bust started to engulf such critical industries as finance; aircraft; spacecraft and genetics. The list can go on and on. We can trace all these trends to Donald Duck, to say the least.
In his inaugural address, Ronald Reagan told Americans that they had mortgaged theirs and their children's future for their short-term convenience. He was probably right. But he did not tell he was the one who foreclosed those mortgages, leaving US in long-term fear, doubt and incompetence.
History, therefore, will not judge him favorably. However, maybe he did not have to care. He was an actor, and played his role as assigned, with heartless and mindless loyalty to the script.
ChinesevAnglo-Saxons: who look better1?

As you may already know, the Chinese generally look younger. For example many Chinese 30 something are asked for their driver licenses when they buy cigarettes or wine in US, because the sellers want to make sure their customers are older than 18 or 21 years old. Save their younger appearance, they also live longer, and generally have more features that are regarded as beautiful.
For example, the shape of their eyes. They actually have all the best shapes of the world, those of the sun, the moon, the diamond, the vertical and lateral, the slanted and unslanted, so on and so forth. In contrast, other peoples often have one or two meager shapes, although they often make some fanfares about how good their eyes look.
Further, Chinese noses also look better. They are of moderate size in terms of width and length and height. While prominent, their noses do not disturb other facial features like the eyebrows, the lips and the cheek. In contrast, other peoples' noses are often squeezed to fit extreme functional requirements. For example, many Europeans have sharp and long noses made to warm up or moisture air, and many Africans' noses are made to dissipate heat. Only Chinese noses are meant for both beauty and functions.
Nothing more than the smooth contour of their faces makes them look so attractive, both as men and women. The Arabians call it the shape of a full moon. And the Chinese didn¡¯t realize how beautiful that feature is until all the movie stars of today¡¯s world start crystallizing toward their direction.
You can see many other features that make the Chinese distinctive and beautiful. The above are just some examples. Of course, these features do not make the Chinese automatically superior to other peoples. But they do make the Chinese look better than Anglo-Saxons.

You might argue why Japanese, Vietnamese and even a few Koreans accept surgery to widen their eyes. Well, first, wide eyes are presently considered a good feature among the Chinese and 20% of the Chinese population consists of people with wide eyes, which means there are more wide-eyed people in China than in anywhere else in the world. However, the proportion is much smaller among peoples at China's fringes such as Japan, Korea and Vietnam. It is natural for them to raise that proportion to match the Chinese. And second, even if some of them do want to imitate foreign looking, many of these fringe peoples have generally been less confident, and sometimes easily misled. They may get addicted to foreign taste from now and then, although they always swing back to the arms of China after a while of trial and error.
You may argue why some Chinese women marry foreign men. Well, 99.5% of those women are not considered good-looking by the Chinese. It's easy to understand why they turn to foreigners for some adventure. And Chinese men generally do not take foreign women as their wives.
You may argue that with the help of Hollywood, Anglo-Saxons could turn the world to their side. Well, what is happening is to the contrary. You are advised to notice that the standard of beauty in Hollywood is moving toward Chinese taste.
Therefore, take my word for it. There is no need for further argument. The Chinese look better than Anglos-Saxons

Discussion 1 is about shapes; discussion 2 is about tastes; now let¡¯s have some discussion about emotions, as represented by colors.
You may ask why Chinese skin looks yellow. Well, that¡¯s the legendary golden complexion admired by folks both to the east and to the west of China. Take a good look at all the best paintings of the last 10 centuries either in China or anywhere else in the world and you find that the skin color of the fair men and fair women is yellow ¨C not white, not black, not red, not blue ¨C it is yellow. Deep in their heart and soul, all peoples somehow have approached the one and same ideal, either in reality as in the case of the Chinese, or in imagination as in the case of other peoples.
Some may brag that their eyes look blue. Well, to tell you the truth, blue is the color of the east according to the Chinese tradition. And the Chinese think of their hair as blue. In the west, such as ancient Greece and Rome, blue was the color of slaves. It was because of China¡¯s promotion that blue rose to respect. However, don¡¯t get me wrong, blue is merely one of the good colors in China. The most revered color, as you may guess, is yellow.
In conclusion, the Chinese have gold-colored skin, blue-colored hair ¨C the two fairy colors that make them glitter with light. They have correctly sized, shaped and positioned eyes and noses and properly delineated facial curves and a great variety within and without the boundary of these features, ¡­ and trust me, these features and more make them the most beautiful in the world.
Chinese v. Anglo-Saxons: who're taller?

Western scholars created a bunch of hoaxes to prove that "western" races are superior to "eastern" races. But if you take a serious look at what they claim, you find they are telling lies so wild that even their Jewish (i.e., eastern) gods would blush at the "western" races' shamelessness. One of their hoaxes is about the height of human bodies. Let¡¯s analyze it.
First, we must know that taller is not necessarily better.
Second, let's see what western scholars have to say: they say they are taller than "eastern" races!
However, as late as 1850 to 1900, the average height of adult male Londoners was 1.65m, while you can assume that Londoners had the highest average among the English. Non-native Americans were even shorter. At that time, the average height of northern Chinese was 1.70m.
Today, the average height of 20-year-old males in several major northern cities (such as Beijing, Tianjin, Qingdao and Dalian) of China is about 1.72 to 1.73m, the same for 20-year-old Americans is about 1.75 to 1.76m. However, the Chinese average is increasing, while the American average has stopped appreciable increase since 25 years ago.
Based on the above two facts, we know that:
1). The height human body is highly correlated with styles and standards of living;
2). If genetics is a factor, then, northern Chinese are probably genetically taller than the English and the Americans.
But, who is superior to whom? Well, you know better than I do, now.
