Summer Olympics 2008. Yes, the one in Beijing.No, I'm not talking about the Tibet thing, even though I was-still am- angry at how they're using an event that promotes international unity to put everyone against China. (Remember the whole thing about cancelling the Olympics, and how certain countries were interferring with the torch run ( Read more... )

I AGREE WITH THIS POST. It's like they got tired of complaining about Tibet so they latched on to something else to bitch about. FAIL, WORLD.

I know right? If only we can all just hold hands around the campfire and sing songs. Or at least, take the Olympics as what it is, and leave the politics/whatever out of it.

Hey this is Becks, I stumbled to your lj from JY's blog.
I have to say:
LOL LOL MEIXCO.
Mexico City has the world's worst air pollution. It's economic status is no where near Beijing is currently.
Pure politics.

Am I a bad friend for not knowing which Rebecca this is?! D: WAIT NO. Rebbeca Zhang?

And woah, your LJ is in French. ::awes:: I need to start writing in French to keep it. XDD FRENCH IS DISAPPEARING. D:

I KNOW. I'm annoyed at how Mexico is saying they're thinking of pulling out when uh. HI, YOU'RE LIKE. ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST POLLUTED COUNTRIES. Gah. >

Linked here by Mei, and IAWTC.

They're not even satisfied with the improvements. Canadian coverage is like, "Beijing is planting flowers everywhere? NO. STOP. WE DISAPPROVE! Show us the real Beijing, don't try to make it better!"

:3 Hi~~ Fun fact, I only learned wat IAWTC meant this week. =/ XD

Ugh, I know. They want the improvements, but they don't want to see the 'changed' Beijing. >.> WHAT DO YOU WANT, PEOPLE? Also, think of their economic sacrifice- they're shutting down many of their plants for this event, just to appease these people scruntinizing them under microscopes. I think it's totally unfair.
