Mao more than ever!

The main slogan of the demonstration in Zhengzhou was:

Absolutely support the American people's great 'Occupy Wall Street revolution!'

More photos and a report can be found on the China Hush site

From that article are some great quotes by the participants:

A young man who also took part in the rally analyzed the reason of the Occupy Wall Street movement that the capitalism had reached its end and the people in capitalist countries were woken up. Another middle-aged person from Shandong province gave his opinions that the socialism can save China, but also the world.

From the photos of the Zhengzhou rally it was obvious that veteran comrades had turned out to support Occupy Wall Street. It is also from these ranks that the "Red song" movement has spread throughout the country bringing people together to sing revolutionary anthems in public spaces. When this phenomenon began the bourgeois press here dismissed it as "Maoist nostalgia." The current Chinese regime obviously doesn't think so as evidenced by the recent arrests and police harrassment to break up these gatherings.

Occupy Hong Kong has already started. My contact in HK has already participated in the event. Right now its only a few hundred people.

This is amazing. The people of the world are rising up. The Chinese people are finally standing up against their corrupt, capitalist government. It's time for the East to return to being Red. Indeed, "Mao more than ever." All of this news is bringing me great hope. I'm standing in international solidarity with all of the oppressed and revolutionary people in Nepal, China, the Philippines, America, Britain, Libya, Egypt, and more. I'm studying at college in a small town in America right now and people are talking about all of this news and I am showing support for all of these movements in my conversing with them. We may organize something here, too. The people need revolution. Organize, organize, organize.

American Leftist Redical:

Finally rising up? The Chinese proletariat is one of the most active proletariat in the world, with tens of thousands of strike actions a year, including defenestrations of corrupt managers, a tradition that has a referent in the Red Guards defenestration of Deng Pufang, Deng Xiaoping's son.

All am saying is, it is the Americans who finally, timidly, are rising up. The rest of the world's oppressed have never let up.

Ocotber 15th is Occupy Asia. I saw it on Facebook.
A good time to take out It's Right to Rebel Against Reactionaries.

Sorry SKS, but I think you need to lighten up on American Leftist Radical.

Meanwhile, from the other side of the coin—literally and figuratively—here is something the U.S. congress is <i>trying </i>to focus on (and scramble about) just this week—“the undervalued Chinese currency”:

From the <i>Atlantic </i>mag.:

<blockquote>“There are two divergent, and competitive, strains of thought on the U.S.-China economic relationship. They can be essentially summarized as "carrot" or "stick" approaches to managing Chinese competition during a time of high unemployment in the U.S. One is the China currency legislation, revived this week with notable support in the Senate -- the stick. The other is attracting Chinese money to create new jobs and investment, especially in cash-strapped states -- the carrot.” </blockquote>

SKS, I stand corrected. But you get my point. I'm excited, that's all.
