I'm more worried about supporting the communists in Hollywood than the Commies in Beijing.
Now I'll feel even less bad about only getting $6 tickets and never buying food.
China isn't communist anymore. They're very capitalist...

Yea, they too are Cuddlecakes just like yourself [ROFL1]

My thought as well and before they went capitalistic I am fairly sure they were a dictatorship with one of the little "hello my name is" stickers on their shirt that say "hi I am communist".

The majority of movies aren't worth it anymore.
Computer generated graphics suck.

I'm pretty sure they're still commies, their government has just set up Specail Economic Zones where they allow economic policies to be more free-market oriented.

This was my first thought too.
The problem isn't so much with China OWNING the theater but using it for their "soft propaganda" machine, this is what the story is about more than anything else.

Actually the Fed owns most of our shit (debt) to the tune of 1.88 Trillion dollars. China owns a mear 1.16 Trillion and isn't really loaning anymore.
And as one of my good clients who frequents China a lot said, don't fool yourself, they are very much Capitalists.
China owns all our shit already, and will own more soon...

And of course whoever work there is chinese, right?
And the Sales Tax you pay on your ticket, will finance a chinese school....
I have no problem with the foreign ownership of companies/corporation as long as the jobs stay here and benefit the local economy.

Stupid comment. Because someone is foreign born doesn't mean they don't care about the country they live in...

No screw yourself!
"you allways comment on the stories about europe like you long to be there"
Heck no. I just trying to clarify some misconception: It's called debating, but you are obviously not smart enough to understand the meaning of this word.
"never served in the military in the US."
So you are saying that only former military deserve citizenship? Wow, you realize that there is 300 millions citizen in this country, and a lot of them did not serve. So are they second class citizen? What about children and young adult under 18? They don't have any right under HBARLeatherneck new order?
"ever did anything to earn it?"
There is have to say: Fuck Yeah! Compare to some worthless POS like you, I had to prove I was worthy of my citizenship! I spend the last 20 years in this country, where day after day I have raised myself to be a model citizen. You, obviously were not raised, just barely fed! In addition this is a decision I made as an adult, and I am proud I made it.

Yes. Quit. Because you hatred is the only thing that keep you going, and the more you hate me the more I will be in your face.
Ok, so 1) I didn't know Ruthabagah was a naturalized citizen (thank you for not coming here illegally, I applaud your hard work to do so) - now the mask makes more sense to me and 2) This is about the Chinese using their newly purchased mass media distribution system to send propaganda to Americans.
Step away from the keyboard and chill out.

This thread went downhill FAST. It's now done.
Everyone step back, take a deep breath and remember we do share a common interest here - anything else is gravy.
