Chinese toddlers being put on a rope like little animals while their parents slave away in factories and work for more than 10 hours a day.

I'm sorry, Iseul -- these pictures cannot be from China, as that country is a prospering socialist beacon for all serious revolutionaries all over the world. You must obviously be a liberal cheering for a colour revolution.


PS: In all seriousness, the fact that we live in a world where these things happen is more than depressing. It's terrifying.

Twenty years from now, when those children grow up to make the second socialist revolution in China, that is how they will tie up the capitalist pigs.

Who said that China was a Maoist paradise,China is not socialist nor Maoist.
And yes,fuck the imperialist leaders of the US.

@Iseul:these images are truly shocking,and i hope someday these children will face a better future.They have to.

China is not Maoist anymore. Maoist groups are being put into prison. Not just revolutionary Maoists, but reformist Maoists too.

And what does "fuck the USA" have to do with anything? :confused: Just because one does not support China today doesn't mean one should support the US at all. It's not "either-or". The US is just as bad as China today, only in different ways. Despite being a rich country (unlike China which is overall quite poor), there is a huge income inequality in the US, millions of American families have trouble feeding themselves, millions of American children grow up in sheer poverty. Not to mention the disgusting imperialist policies the US pursues abroad: Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, Libya...

Did China have these conditions even during Mao's time? Or did conditions for these workers drop?

Reminds me of that brick factory they found where workers where chained to their machines and not allowed to leave.

I do not recall how they where found but i think it was as a checkup to see if the owner was paying his taxes or something stupid like that.

No, children were not tied to bars and machines during Mao's time.

For what it's worth...I think Hoxha was right:

"In the future, along with the transformation of China into an imperialist superpower, the role and the power of the army in the life of the country will steadily increase. It will be strengthened as a praetorian guard, armed to the teeth, for the defence of a capitalist regime and economy. It will be the tool of a bourgeois capitalist dictatorship, a dictatorship which, if the people's resistance is strong, may even assume open fascist forms." - Imperialism and The Revolution

At the hospital my sister in law works at in Iowa, it's a standard part of every pediatric visit to warn parents not to chain their kids to the crib while they cook meth.
