这位看来是明白人
但是为什么就不能明白在跟她同一战线上的很多人没有她那么明白呢?




I think she mostly got pissed off by many flatulent people that claimed she didn't know anything about what's going on and was brainwashed by western media blahblahblah

I think actually many tibet surpporters really did some thorough research, and many of them are actually criticizing the hypocrisy of Chinese media, which is true I think. yeah some western media is shit to make things up. At least they bring up problems. What they claimed was there must be something happening that CCP doesn't want people to know, and most Chinese are just narrow-minded all siding with the Chinese media and the government saying everything is FINE without even questioning a thing, not even one. They said they are Tibetans, they have the right to know what's going on inside. Reasonale, I guess.

Sigh...I kinda understand them

这个姑娘看起来还是蛮有想法的。偶们一腔热血的同时,也得有个openmind听一听这些声音。毕竟不能这么永远剑拔弩张下去,最终还是要talk,才能解决问题。

做的真赞。mike你说这些能转给NY的游行组织者,看他们要不要做poster吗?

好吧,我做了talk的牺牲品, 完全贡献给大家^^
其中“mien"讲的是她的种族,在中国被归为瑶族,她是从越南到美国的, 被称为mien American

我们就像是中共和达赖的对话,互相听不懂-.-
希望大家吸取经验教训...

Me:

Hi

Despite all your name calls of other people..I
still understand your care about China.There is an ooold idiom in
Chinese saying “the ugliness of a family should not be exposed" I think
it's something like "a skeleton in the cupboard" in English. I think
that mentality has grown into many Chinese including me--too
presumptuous to comment for all maybe. It does hurt feelings to think
about all the things at first, and actually we folks have been
talking/criticizing no less of what's happening domestically.

Like
what I said, P.R.C is a country just too young, and there are so many
challenges it needs to face and solve instead of blocking--I'm the one
that always says "fuck CCTV" all the time

People always have egos, you, me and everybody, right? Most time I just laugh off others' comments

It
does take time to improve and change things, but you gotta believe that
things are being changed by many Chinese. But definitely this year
would be a very good chance to alarm China and Chinese on a lot of
things really.

A country is a country, it's got everything
defined from the beginning. it's the place that most people grew up in
and familiar with. I really think it's more important to focus on what
we have got and what we can do to improve things rather than going
backwards to make up for the historical mistakes or something. It just
costs way too much that nobody-- the government, the people--wouldn't
bear emotionally/ materialistically.

To me, I would take my
camera if I go to Tibet next time, maybe calling up a couple of my
friends doing different angles. That's what I can do for next I think.
For now, I've always been very right-winged among my folks and I think
it's good to have different voice heard just like what they are doing
to have their voice heard by people around the world. As long as there
is different voice from both sides, I think it's good.

I've been reading different articles about Tibet recently, and it really takes time and many nights
I really need give myself a break on this, and I promise I'll come back to you later.







Her:

thank you your opinion. but i didnt call those people names for their
opinion on the tibet issue. they were of irelevent things and most
relating to me. esp. the mien one which you just found out when i
mentioned it. the yao in china do not call themselves yao. because all
of them are culturally different. the "yao" who are mien call
themselves mien. it was only after a group of them left china that they
made it known they are MIEN not YAO but the chinese govt were adament
about calling them and other groups yao to "simplified things" which
further confused people.

the issue concerning tibet -- the
tibetans have their own writing system, their own language, their own
culture, and most importantly had their own government -- all these
things make up a country is that not true?
so what makes you think that tibet was never an independent country?

youve
never been to tibet and i doubt you have any friends in tibet who are
tibetans. if you can shoot a documentary about tibetans in tibet and
not edit it i will reimburse you.

you acknowledge that there
are injustice everywhere but said you havent considered the possibility
of injustice in tibet? why is that? did you not see the riot video? and
why do people protest? because they want to be heard. how can we
respect eachother if you are't even listening to the tibetans cry and
are excusing it as an attempt to split china.

if china had
taken good care of the tibetan people there would be no protest. and
yes the chinese govt gives money to the minority and gives them "good
education" but it's not worth losing ones culture. the tibetan culture
cannot be maintained if there are more hans moving into tibet -- the
capital of lhasa the most holly place has become one of the biggest
tourist attraction -- children begging for change and prostitutes
roaming the streets. and since china is being compared to the us so
often -- look each state has a flag of it's own but we all call
ourselves americans. you can't force people to respect you by giving
them money to quiet them.

i dont love china for what it's doing to my people.
because
my language is no longer spoken in china with it comes to the youth.
only the older people can speak it and still they have already
incorporated mandarin into our language.

that's my stand. you
are the blind one here. all i asked is that you consider the
possibility of some injustice in tibet to the tibetan people and yet
you refused. and i still dont know why. because i have aknowledge that
there is also injustice here in america. and i acknowledge that i
understand why china hasnt allowed western media into tibet. and i have
been talking to you for 3 days now. it's been awbile since you been to
tibet so maybe things have changed. but you're still stubborn about any
wrong doing in tibet. that's a shame.

even my chinese friends
who love their country and support the olympics have acknowledge that
yes there are more hans moving into tibet and that may be an issue. but
you refused to believe anything i say. how can i believe anything you
say?

though it is nice to know people who have strong opinions
and do not always agree with you. i cannot continue this conversation
with you anymore. i would rather much talk to my other chinese friends
and figure out a solution instead of fighting back and forth like this.




大家冷静点
看看我们的行动有没有reflectivity

这人后面说话不是很nice呀。。 虽说她说的那个瑶族的事儿我还真是没听说过。。

还有几个观点
不公布名字了

美国人,中国人,西藏人,缅甸人,越南人,波兰人,外籍华人
呵呵,好多人的讨论。。


i am a tibetan and i got many people that i know who are still in tibet...i always hear stories frm them that they are not happy at all and that the govt dont give them basic human rights like the han chinese get in tibet...how come u guys say the chinese govt treat them equally....they even say that they have to say it in front of cameras or else they go to prison...i am saying these things coz i know people who have experienced such stuff..i am not just babbling about or saying stuffs like most of u do here...someone mentioned..5%slaves are outside...95% freedom...freedom my ass mate...they cant even voice their own opinion in tibet...they get beaten and put to prison when they protest..and u call that freedom...huh..u make me laugh..

and jamie wang..u said "Does people know that Tibet only stopped the practice of slavery after it became part of the republic of China?"...so before that tibet was not a part of china rite.....so u agree to that as u ureself told it earlier...and also if u contradict saying tibet was practicing salvery then i can contradict u by saying that u shouldnt have indulged in another country's matter...its internal i would say...just as one of ure ignorant fren sugested earlier in the discussion saying that the world should not follow the tibet-china problem coz its internal matter...boo hooo..


后一观点与我问过的不少美国人观点相似
"just like you saved the kid beaten up by your neighbor and then claimed that to be yours"
有支持一个中国的美国人说: "make sense, but it's good for the kid."

有人提到了美国奴隶制

--xxx,i get you - and i know that the tibetans are being well educated in china and speak very good mandarin. and china has some respect for other peoples culture. i wont argue with you about that because i believe you. but i do sense ethnocentrism here . please dont bring up the slavery argument again. almost every if not all countries had slaves.

again china also had slaves! get over it! the world is not going to allow a free tibet to have slaves! and xx let's not google our information now, k?

她一直在索要的:

oh xxx, i need some footage of the tibetans in china for my documentary project. things like what theyre doing, what they do in their free time, what they like, hobbies, interests, how life is like in china etc.
since i am not able to travel there this year. can you please film a bit for me since you live with tibetans. i will reimburse you.

有一个典型美国人的观点:
And I mean seriously, what does Thomas Jefferson owning slaves 200 years ago have to do with the current issue in Tibet? Despite the fact that you conviently left out huge pieces of information about Jefferson's stance on the issue, the U.S. had a CIVIL WAR, partly over slavery, and ended up abolishing it... So how about we talk about the present instead of the past. Like I have told countless people here, if you want to talk about the injustices taking place, past or present, in the U.S. and ways of dealing with those issues, then I would more than happily form a group with you to discuss those things, but we are here, in this group, to discuss what is going on between China and Tibet. I can tell by some of your remarks that you think I should mind my own business or whatever, but I live by this quote: "Injustice anywhere, is a threat to justice everywhere"...and not to seem like an ass, but whether you like it or not, I actually have the right to voice my opinion...and I intend to.


一个波兰人的发言(我还在和他个别交流中):

Firstly- To all supporters of the China's Gov line: why if it's so good with everything in mighty communist China, most of you, speaking here, is actually abroad? Do you plan to return to PRC?
Could someone explain to me why there are so freaking huge diffrences between Chinese cities and interior- in development and earnings? If everything is ok with HR- why cannot you use f.e. google in PRC as we can use here in Western Countries (try type human rights in google.cn and results would be diffrent than here)? If it's so good with human rights why chinese media didn't show the protesters in all cities where the olympic flame where? Maybe someone in PRC would like to know smth about it? Why do you believe only in this what ur media tell? there are no truly objective media take it for consideration. And on thing more- since now f.e. neither UN secretary general, prime minster of UK, cancellor of Germany,nor any member of Polish and Czech government is attending ceremony of opening.

To all Tibet supporters: have u ever heard Dalailama calling for Tibet independence? I got impression that for u Tibet’s case it's a ‘let’s make a revolution’ case. If u are so good in understanding, knowing Tibetans (what I respect) cannot u understand the point of view of Chinese people? They treated Tibet as their area of influence always, they invested a lot over there and there are a lot of natural resources over there which China needs. And Chinese will always treat any protest about Tibet as something threatening to their independence and sovereignty (f. e. Canadians- how would u feel if someone from abroad would call for independent Quebec or Inuit’s Territories?)

And to be honest- I do not like zealots on both sides.
But destroying slowly a nation, it's culture, history and heritage is certainly something bad. And it reminds me something what may have occurred in Poland with Polish smth like around 70 years ago.
Lamas (as a part of heritage and local intellectuals) are oppressed, children aren't taught Tibetan language, there are Han settlers (given better payments and conditions to settle in Tibet) etc. chinazation (sinisation? )
and in Poland: professors, priests were send to concentration/ work camps, there were nearly no education given to Polish and German settlers (given better payments and conditions to settle in previous Poland- germanization, during the 2nd WW.

To all Tibet supporters again: Why you cannot understand that living under the communism regime is huge different than in liberal- democracy? My nation suffered from communists for nearly 50 years. A lot of propaganda delivered to your brain since u're a child is so huge that you cannot have wider horizons than these what u've been told/ tought. And protesting would only strengthen the nationalism of PRC, poor victim of bad West. Finally do you think that protesting without support of our govs making billions of $ with PRC would change anything?

她对自己的race非常了解和尊重,包括从姓名到风俗,语言也会一点
包括谈到了56个民族的划分,为此也对P.R.C非常不满


nice不nice的关键就是我们的态度截然不同
牛头不对马嘴,她只想关心unjust的现实

“the chinese govt are a lot more strict on tibetans than they are with
other groups -- i mean im allowed to travel to china coz im a us
citizen and I can say yes im mien and you chased my people up the
mountain and classified them as yao -- a name btw, we have not accepted
and you dare to call us "savage tribal people" when you understand
nothing about our culture.

im sure the chinese govt will still
allow me to travel to china and visit my people and bring along an
interpreter coz my people in china only speak mandarin now.
yup some
appreciation for other peoples culture. why dont you work on that and
then come argue with me about genocide and human rights.“

她回我有关于种族的问题
还说自己老家在湖南,想做少数民族的记录片, 非常想去看瑶族
但是不能在西藏拍摄,所以才一直呼吁有人去拍摄她愿意付钱

也有满族的中国同胞说我是满族, 我没收到歧视, 我们都是一家人
下面有人问,你还会说自己语言,写自己文字么
呵呵

chao哥
其实都是明白人
只是我们没有对他们想要听到的做出回应
而一直在喊one china,no seperation.
在他们看来,中国人已经变得和中国政府一样beating around the bush
哈哈


还有一个好玩的,red scares
在很多国人谴责美国的human rights, civil rights时

一个berkeley的看到满街的五星红旗的照片的回应:
Just think, in the red scares during the end of the 1910's and the 40's
and 50's, all of these people would have been arrested and deported
from the country. I think is a very good indicator of the civil rights
progress now that people are allowed to do this! Thank God it's not the
50's!

这个真倒是不知道...

包括前两天有人对非政治奥运的评论
因为中国1980就抵制过奥运会,
奥运如果非政治,台湾也就不会一直以中国台北的名字参加了


不是我一直说不好听的, 很多人心里都明白着呢

理解基础上的沙文主义, 对吧, 呵呵
