Please keep the historical information bits of your comments to HN and drop the political battle bits (e.g. "fascist totalitarians"). You don't have to change your politics to post here, but they should not be the high-order element—because when that happens, curiosity is vaporized, and this place exists for curiosity.

Also, definitional flamewars about the word "fascism", which we're getting below, are useless, boring, and always escalate to worse.

My point is that you should ignore advise from people that shrug of millions of dead.

Of course you can finally come to the conclusion that the cause is worth the price. But considering the cost it should be carefully weighted.

I hate being the devil's advocate, but you know the word "fascist" has an actual meaning, don't you? I'm not trying to defend the Chinese government, but calling them "fascist" is just wrong

In what way do you think China is not fascist? To me China seems to fit the definition of facism to a T.

in which way US is not fascist?

In the way that they're communist? Extreme communism and extreme fascism have an awful lot in common.

The Chinese govt's oppression of Christians, Falun Gong and Muslims is ABSOLUTELY fascist.
