It is not such a great distance from Li’s seemingly urbane championing of endless one-party authoritarian rule to the xenophobic angry-youth and fifty-cent party’s conspiracy theorists.

He was brainwashed by the western media to believe that there were indeed such things such as universal values.

Democracy, freedom and human rights are nothing but a tool for the Westen elites to indoctrinate the masses both home and abroad so that they can steal and suck the blood out of others.

What the western elites and journalists (who are financed by big money/big bankers/big corporations) are doing to the Chinese people nowadays by forcing such hollow slogans down the throat of the Chinese people is no different from their pouring opium down the throat of the Chinese more than a century ago.

Don’t point your fingers at the Chinese for its ‘worst human rights record” without first examining yourself in the mirror. It sickens the Chinese to the stomach when hypocrites come to the Chinese land and shamelessly accuse the Chinese of violating this and that.
