Alright, so I did it. I finally left a comment on Time's China blog.
This rather pathetic attempt at propaganda finally tipped me over the edge. Sure, it's only a blog, but the people who write it are supposed to be journalists, and journalists are supposed to at least pretend to make an effort at objectivity, and he's not blathering on like some fool of a tourist about the wonderful vege market down the road, he's commenting on two real issues of real importance in the world today.
I know, it's only Time, and we all know the quality of their blog. I mean, Bill Powell's last three posts to the Time China blog were little more than plagiarisations of other people's articles without even the decency of a link to the original article. I'm sorry. I have a bad cold and it seems to be clouding my judgement.
