'China City' coming to Upstate NY

Post by Techmomof2 »

What do you think of an enclave of Communist China on our soil? or 5 of them, or 10 or 100?

Are they going to import their pollution, or create it on site?

Although I'm not down with the theme park and casino parts of the planned community, I could get behind the super feng shui that will be going on.

Think they could out breed the Mexicans, African Americans, and Mormons. Then America will be China part 2. White people need to start knocking boots.

I have to ask this as a totally serious question....do you really deep down believe the stuff you post on here?

The blog you are linking today has as its most popular stories:

1. A US domestic army being built in secret
2. Birther stuff
3. The Clintons murdering people
4. Osama bin Laden truther
5. Nelson Mandela is a terrorist

Is this the kind of stuff that mainstream conservatives really believe? Can you imagine the (justified) abuse I'd take if I started linking articles about how the CIA created AIDS to kill off Africans and homosexuals?

The story can be found in other <recognized mainstream> news sources, but it's described differently. It's represented as more of a master planned theme park type of project with a 'Forbidden City' attraction, an amusement park, casino, and various other touristy things. That said, it also includes residences, a school, infrastructure, etc. Apparently, it's the brainchild of a developer in the NYC area (of Chinese descent?).

And that's OK. It might be an interesting story about relations with China/assimilation/etc..., but linking to crazy right-wing conspiracy blogs doesn't do anything to help credibility.

You can find the story in other publications if you don't like that one. That's up to you, not me.

True. When I see those links, if it's a post that interests me, I try to go find it from a reputable source (or at least a source without a so blatantly biased agenda).

Is HuffPo OK with you? Mandela was on the US Terrorist Watch list for many years.

And granted that your point of view depends on whether someone is a 'freedom fighter' or 'terrorist', but Mandela's efforts were not all peaceful.

I care that American values are continued. And that's not going to happen with socialist Mexicans hoping the boarder and demanding access without assimilation. Same with communist Chinese or any other nationality. I'm sure some of you will focus on the nationality aspect, but the second word is the one you should. No commies or socialists. They just so happen to be dominated by different nationalities.

let me guess, people from communists nations are born with American values? Of course not, that's why they must be taught and that ain't going to happen with Mexicans jumping the border or a deluge of communists who will skate through assimilation classes and continue one voting for commies.

Awesome Guy - so by "no commies or socialist" you suggest that we reduce the number of visas we grant to highly-educated Chinese nationals?

I believe he means immigrant visas (the 1st step towards becoming a citizen). At least that's what I'm guessing he means.

1. I don't remember TMO2 being a birther, but she was a Patero-er.
2. Mandela kiiiinda was a terrorist. In fact, he kinda co-founded a terrorist organization. They killed something like 130 people, but history is written by the victors...
