China is using an increasing number of paid "internet commentators" in a sophisticated attempt to control public opinion.

These commentators are used by government departments to scour the internet for bad news - and then negate it.

They post comments on websites and forums that spin bad news into good in an attempt to shape public opinion.

Chinese leaders seem aware that the internet - the only public forum where views can be freely expressed - needs close attention.

China's Communist Party leaders have long sought to sway public opinion by controlling what the media can report.

That policy was extended to the internet, and many websites are blocked by a system sometimes dubbed the "great firewall of China".

Rumours and opinions

But cyberspace - where views can be expressed instantly and anonymously - is not as easy to control as traditional news outlets.


[They] need to possess relatively good political and professional qualities, and have a pioneering and enterprising spirit
Extract from internal document produced by Nanning city authority, Guangxi province
Comments, rumours and opinions can be quickly spread between internet groups in a way that makes it hard for the government to censor.

So instead of just trying to prevent people from having their say, the government is also attempting to change they way they think.

Spin machine

A document released by the public security bureau in the city of Jiaozuo in Henan province boasts of the success of this approach.

It retells the story of one disgruntled citizen who posted an unfavourable comment about the police on a website after being punished for a traffic offence.

One of the bureau's internet commentators reported this posting to the authorities within 10 minutes of it going up.

The bureau then began to spin, using more than 120 people to post their own comments that neatly shifted the debate.

"Twenty minutes later, most postings supported the police - in fact many internet users began to condemn the original commentator," said the report.

I remenber when the tibet riots where happening in a forum of military pictures and photos I go sometimes,there was a surge of chinese menbers posting tons of pro china posts and such

I remenber there was one who posted about the freedom the people in china have
and them some asked that if chinese people is so free them why they get jailed if they made a negative coment about the comunist party
the chinese poster didnt answered the questiong but went posting things like "I dont understand your questiong/why would someone say that of the party blabla"
 
Excellent piece for my dissertation :D
 
This isnt anything bad guys. Every country does it, its no big deal. China doesnt want to control your mind, they just want everyone to see every point of view. For several long years China has striven to be a government that promotes equal representation of every point of view, and remain an unbiased and upright organization.










pssst China, please remember to send my check to my new address, thanks

Herro krynn,
I work with the Chinese Communist Party, I will need your sociral security card number to deposit your money.
 
China has done stuff like this forever.
 
why do people think the chinese pronounce L's as R's? Don't they have words with L's in it? What about Lee? Lau? Lung? lol where did this assumption that they can't pronounce L's come from?
 
Its not that they can't pronounce Ls, its just they cant pronounce anything at all. They are inferior, refer back to OP for proof.

That picture would be 10x better if the face on the ID card was shopped as well.

It comes from Japanese, which has an interesting R/L relation, wiki it if you will.

And by the the power of internet logic:

Japanese have funny R
Japanese are asian

--> All asians have funny R

Doesn't make it any ress amusing, though.
 
I always wondered why every time China did something ****tastically stupid, a swarm of ****ing zergling drones would swarm over my monitor screeching at me and every other person on that thread.




I mean, what really gets my goat is these foreign ethnic Chinese, here you are, your living in a free prosperous western nation, there is absolutely no law, no intimidation, nothing to force you to be a moron, and then you go and do it by protecting a regime you have no link or beholden loyalty to just because its Chinese, and defend it even as evidence stares you in the face that the regime is a horrid putrid piece of shit that insults the human race with its contemptuous existence.


At least Mainland Chinese PRC citizens have good reason to tow the party line and be all smiles and big love for the party, but foreign born and raised Chinese........*shakes head*.


As for these China corp. trolls, probably no worse then the legion of 13 year old American kiddies who descend upon anyone who implies that America likes a bit of cock on the side.
 
Them doing this certainly gives me a good image of China.

You must be dyslexic.

and I wouldn't call it an "interesting R/L relation", that just sounds like youre trying to bone some japanese girls.
 
They do not have Ls in their alphabets so they are pronounced as Rs.

As a result they are not used to making the L sound and have difficulty with it.

Though what's interesting is that they don't really even pronounce their Rs like we do, it's sort of a mix between L and R. It's not as drawn out, it's a short little sound, like a hard consonant.

Nuri if you say dayo again I will cut your face.
 
Dayyyyyyo.

Daayyyyo.

Daylight come and me wanna go HOooooomMMMmmmeee..

Right, I haven't got a clue what you're going with that so I'll leave it out...

I know my explanation was a gross simplification, but Japanese pronunciation wasn't really the point I was after. If you're that touchy about the language this thread must cause you agonizing pain. You have my sympathy.

...that just sounds like youre trying to bone some japanese girls.

I wouldn't mind some, to be honest...

With what, your buster blade?. :rolleyes:
 
Do you realize the irony of what you just said?
 
He tried to make fun of me for being a weeaboo (which he failed at, I do not play Final Fantasy nor am I into cosplay) after I yelled at him for doing one of the most annoying weeaboo activities one can engage in, throwing in bastardized Japanese into his post (dayo).
 
I'd like to clarify, I'm not into cosplay unless it's a Japanese girl. And preferably sexual in nature.

/thankful he didn't get his posts hacked apart by someone who knows much more about the Japanese language

I think I have the right to use a language I know some of, seeing as I have actually stayed there a while and most waps can only dream.

When you've lived some time in Japan, talked to people and generally had to rely on Japanese, then you can can dictate to me over the net when and if I may be so honoured as to be allowed to utter Nihongo. Oh wait, you still wouldn't be able to because there is currently no such position as nazi boss of who gets to speak a language.


Thats the most annoying weeaboo habit to me TBH, weeaboo's who look down on their fellow weebs and then tell them (and others) off for doing something "too weeaboo" as if Japan and by extension, its language has never existed outside and detached from nerdishness.

White people speak Japanese for more then being a virgin nerd you know, some people actually use it because they need to, want to or you know...just enjoy learning a language.

:cheers:
 
You mean I can get paid for posting bullshit!?

GOD DAMMIT.

Explain to me how visiting Japan gives you the ability to add Japanese to your English sentence and not be open to ridicule? To my admittedly limited knowledge 'dayo' doesn't even make sense in the context that you used it in.

You're completely missing the point of what I was saying anyway. Most of all, you're turning everything into a fight. I said I would cut your face because what you did made me think of all the annoying people (read: people who annoy me) who needlessly add Japanese words to their speech because it's SUPER KAWAII ^_^ and I had thought you were actually mocking those kinds of people when you said it. Which is why I said something as ridiculous as saying I'd cut your face, because it was also in mock formality.

You turned things ugly by attempting to attack me with a completely aimless blow, just making some random guess that I like Final Fantasy or that I collect model swords from a video game franchise.

So I pointed out that your post was ironic in that you were trying to attack weeaboo traits in response to me attacking weeaboo traits. It seemed kind of silly to me. While I was having a little fun and "japan-fapping", you apparently are taking actual offense from me.

"White people speak Japanese for more then being a virgin nerd you know, some people actually use it because they need to, want to or you know...just enjoy learning a language."

Well, no shit. If I'm not the kind of person who randomly uses Japanese in his English sentences, obviously I don't fit into that category and thus actually have an interest in learning a new language. I've never come across anyone who took learning Japanese seriously and yet would pointlessly do what you did. Which is why I assumed you were mocking those kinds of people, because I really didn't think that's who you were.

I find it funny that you feel like flexing your muscles in effort to 'show me up' like I'm going to get scared and 'back off' from this imaginary conflict you're experiencing.

There's one thing you need to understand about me and that is I'm generally not the kind of person who makes fun of what other people do and is serious about it. I make fun of people or things people do all the time, I hold just as many opinions good and bad as the next guy, but I for the most part do not actually try to put down those people for what I think is stupid. Judge not lest ye be judged is sort of what I follow.

So whatever mayne.

/drama post

Edit: Also if you make me post shit like this again I will cut your face twice as deep.
 
Dayo... dayo... daylight come and me want to go home.

EDIT: I've been informed that my buddy and nemesis Cyberpitz has already made this joke. Great minds think alike.

I find it funny you think I have taken offence or want an E-fight lol.

If I did find you offensive, you'd be on my ignore list, I have absolutely no problem with you.


I apologize if I conveyed any impression I find you and my dealings with you anything more then a five second late night post out of boredom that's quickly forgotten dayo.
 
So fake, China rocks. China is the best i mean come on.

*receives money
