Patriotic education for masseursPosted by Joel Martinsen, April 17, 2008 1:49 AM
![]() A group education in patriotism? Or a clever marketing strategy? For its eighth anniversary, a large massage company in Nanning, Guangxi Province, took more than 200 employees to the local monument to the people's martyrs, where they all swore to oppose the independence of Tibet and Taiwan. China News spoke to a company representative:

Comments on Patriotic education for masseursactually, patriotism education is really not necessary for chinese people. i mean, patriotism lies within our blood. not to mention CCP's textbooks, we have 说岳,说唐,杨家将,薛家将,龙图公案,东汉演义,三国 and these stories are told by all chinese parents. we also have a shameful history of 170 years and that is not forgettable. that is why young chinese generation is among the most patriotic groups of people in the world. 同意霄汉居士,我为我们过去辉煌的历史而自豪.但是,我希望这种感情不要随便被扭曲,利用. All of the above are 'patriotic education', Jushi. So it may be in your blood, but we can't know because 'patriotic education' (with nary a dissenting view allowed) has been shoveled to you since birth. And yes China does have quite a history (rumor has it being 5,000 years), and the Chinese youth of today are among the most patriotic in the world. But I suggest you tell Hu Jintao that the country doesn't need it because he has been having 'patriotic education' campaigns quite often. 170 years of shameful Chinese selling out their own for a quick buck or a few cases of silver and a history of exiling or executing any great leader that shows any initiative... uhh...三国 is chinese patriotic education about as much as the lord of the rings is western patriotic education. 回一楼居室的,你还忘了木兰从军,昭君出塞,文成公主,苏武牧羊,荆轲刺秦王,屈原投江。。。 回guan yu同学,那红枣脸的家伙称“帝”,坐庙,是汉传佛教和玉皇大帝平起平坐的护法神,这些可不是凭空从天上掉下来的。 |

+ Some like them uncut (2007.06): Hu Tong (胡同) of Booyee Bookshop (布衣书局) writes about the popularity of uncut editions. + The 'national' in National Day (2006.10): Xiao Feng writes about China's national flavor, national curse, national bird, national car, and so forth, Dongfang Yu writes on the true meaning of China's National Day in the age of angry youth. + The Three Stooges in China (2004.09): "Can you do the laugh?" I ask him. "You know, that laugh?" He nods. He knows what I'm talking about. "Nyuk nyuk nyuk!" he suddenly erupts, in an imitation of Curly so compelling that I'm suddenly transported from Beijing to my family's living room floor in Eureka, Kansas, circa 1959...
