Know your enemy

前天我想写东西了，结果博客出问题了。有个人跟我抱怨看不到我的博客。老是出问题我也觉得麻烦，到期了我要搬家。

那天坐在火车上读日本二战史，读到冷得发抖。当年大本营错误估计了中国战场，导致最后不得不三线作战，战线拖得太长。另一个错误是明知道不能打败生产力极高的美国还要偷袭珍珠港，虽然成功打击了太平洋舰队。如果日本当年把重点放在中国战场上，或者在东线和苏俄开战，有可能最后和纳粹德国打垮苏联，做好和美国开战的物质准备还有可能赢。裕仁典型一个马基雅维利式君主，表面上没有实权，实际掌握整个内阁，最后还能逃过战犯审判，但是对外扩张的野心远远大于内部自适应的程度，导致日本的战略失误，说白了就是低估了对手的实力，孙子昭和还是比不过爷爷明治。 Read more »

“把这些读完你可以升天了”

刚刚整理了一下春假的计划，要做的阅读厚厚两大叠，读完写PAPER，还有暑假的事情要开始准备了。好像所有的教授都约好了似的，一起布置作业，一起假装别的教授不会布置作业。把这些读完我真的可以升天了。

前天又收到一个OFFER。那么多有什么用？都是废的。从零到一有本质的区别，后面的marginal utility越来越小。 我现在已经宠辱不惊了。

春田花花

坐在图书馆里，心里好像有野草一样呼啦啦往外长。春天果然不是读书的季节。这两天翻来覆去地想着两句话。“桃之夭夭，灼灼其华”，灼灼两字后世无出其右者。还有一句“春田花花同学会”，麦兜故事的系列，花花两字真是撩人哪。最近读不进书的时候泡在YOUTUBE上看樱桃小丸子，爱死小丸子一家了。我真是越活越小了。

前两天不断有人问当天的情况。那天确实上课上得有点不爽，吃饭的时候看到两个废人坐在KLINE门口，还有一张长长的MAILING LIST更加不爽。以前你爱怎么折腾和我没有关系，这次出来歪曲事实就是你的不对。然后和她们辩论，说完了我就回去了。第二天有人告诉我那个西藏MM哭了，我都觉得诧异。后来上FACEBOOK看到了那个NOTE，和下面一连串的人身攻击真的是很怒，于是就爆发了。

大部分美国人其实根本不在乎西藏或者中国的人权。他们做一些人权运动的根本原因是想feel right. 让自己感觉是对的，是道德的。他们根本不在乎这些被压迫和穷困国家人民的真正喜乐和哀愁，做这些事情完全是为了自己的感觉对，这本身是自私的表现。而且美国人洗脑程度大于中国人，西方媒体用事实只讲one-side story的隐形洗脑不容易让人察觉其本质。不过也有很友好的美国人，我老板上星期就问我对西藏问题的看法，我也很委婉地说了一下对达赖的看法，然后给她看了YOUTUBE上的视频和别的背景资料，慢慢地讲道理有理性的人通常都能接受。最后老板也赞成我的观点，还请我吃饼干。哎不过中国人走到哪里都要被人非议的事情还是不要有的比较好。

附我给我老板看的视频，说的还是很中肯的。

春天

昨天去听了歌剧，花腔女高音很好听，绕梁三日犹有余韵。

前几天学校里那几个唧唧歪歪的藏独分子终于没敢再出来挂雪山虱旗子，有本事在kline门口摆桌子颠倒是非，没本事被人家challenge哭鼻子。

GPA3.0都不到的肌肉男嘲笑人家的mental capability，我很想让他明天自己去dean office解释一下他的white rally言论。

尼泊尔人死活要争喜马拉雅山不在中国，我想她的潜台词是想说它在尼泊尔，顺便鄙视一下中国人的无知。

福建偷渡的香蕉人假装we chinese。Don’t fake yourself as a real chinese. 那样好恶心。

阿三嫌自己脑残还残得不够，跑到人家facebook上丢人现眼，动不动拿天安门和台湾来说事，台湾有没有核导弹关他什么事。

韩国MM说不过人家跑去找中文教授，像极了打小报告的小孩。

麻烦我的马甲同学自己把帐号删掉，虽然我知道你的本意是好的。

中国人大多不怎么关心政治，属于闷声发大财的类型。有一天有个中国人吃饭的时候说西藏出事了，口气好像在说陈冠希又出艳照了。dirty job总是要有人来做的。巴德以前只有free tibet的声音,第一次有了anti-free tibet的声音。谢谢大家，让我知道我不是一个人。

期中看这样的帖子非常有娱乐性，有兴趣的去看我的facebook，在我删掉之前。

呼哧呼哧还有一个礼拜，我已经闻到假期的味道了。

It is NOT a peaceful protest

有人上门踢馆来了。不应战怎么可以？I dont have time to do proofreading and fix the typos. But read it please.

Dear Ten

Thank you for your note on the facebook. The conversation yesterday, according to my understanding, is quite informative and friendly. You have the right to say what you believe. And you did it. Now it is my turn to defend what I believe.

What was going on in Tibet was NOT a peaceful protest. It is vandalism, violence and above all terrorism by some Tibetians.

“According to The Economist, “The mobs, ranging from small groups of youths (some armed with traditional Tibetan swords) to crowds of many dozens, including women and children, rampaged through the narrow alleys of the Tibetan quarter. They battered the shutters of shops, broke in and seized whatever they could, from hunks of meat to gas canisters and clothing. Some goods they carried away, while other goods were thrown into large fires lit on the street.[2] “Little children could also be seen looting a toyshop…”[5]

The Guardian reported that according to foreign eyewitness accounts, rioters have been attacking Han, Muslim Hui and other ethnic minorities, with the exception of foreigners.[11] It described that with the exception of Tibetan-owned hotels, many other hotels were vandalized and smashed.[11] The eyewitness also reported seeing three rioters stabbing an unconscious man.[11] After the Monday deadline, Chinese police called on loudspeakers that anyone who took part in the violence and gave themselves up would be treated with leniency. [12]

Western tourists emerging from Tibet described the level of the violence occured within the days of the protest. Some Western tourists described that they saw Chinese people being beaten and stoned to death by groups of Tibetans, with supports of crowd; some also claim to see such violence against elderly people.[18][19]

Canadian tourist John Kenwood after coming back from Tibet told The Times about the experience: “It’s hard to pick a side in what happened, I agree that the Tibetans have their own culture, but I can’t agree with what people did. After a while, it was not about Tibetan freedom any more.”[18]–Wikipedia (or check out The Times, or The Economist, or the Guardian)

The issue of Tibet is not only the interest of the government. It is the national interest of China and its people. The word “Chinese” stands for 56 different peoples in the territory of People’s Republic of China. The people in China are diverse. Personally I have many friends from the miniority. We respect each other on religious belief, customs, life styles, etc. As an international student in US, I read extensively on both sides. So don’t accuse me of being brainwashed by “communist propaganda”. Even if I don’t agree with the governent’s policy sometimes, I am loyal to my country. Go ask any anti-Bush American if he or she will support a free Texas Republic. Of course the answer is negative. Are they brainwashed by the US government or the US media to love their country? Patriotism is not brainwashing.

Here is an analogy: say a native person gets low paid, not happy with his life. He blames the white of making his life miserable. Now, full of fury, he goes out, beats any white people on the streets to death with stone and sets their houses on fire. And this is exactly what was going on in Tibet in the past several days, or even worse. Should he be kept down by the police or by the army if there is a large group of barbarians? Can you justify this violence action by any human law or any existing religion? Or by your religion led by your “peace-loving” spiritual leader Dalai Lama who received US$1.7 million a year in the 1960s from the U.S. Government through the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and trained terrorists to attack China including the territory of Tibet(cite from Wiki)? If so, I am sadly to find out “free tibet” is such a great irony. And Dalai Lama is not a pacifist at all. Isn’t he more like an eastern Bin Laden? I am not going to cite Dalai’s infamous theocratic ruling before 1950 since you don’t bother to read history.

I love my country and won’t never let anyone sunder it apart. I am sure 99.9% of the whole Chinese people hold the same view.An integrated China is my belief. This is my “religion” as you have your own religion. And I am ready to defend it anywhere at any time till the end of my life. I won’t sit in front of Kline dining hall and cry like a coward for some cheap pity, after I left. I am not afraid of someone questioning my belief because there is nothing I could feel shame of. Therefore I strongly doubt whether you can defend your cause or whether your belief is well-grounded. The claim becomes especially suspicious when the person is carrying a US passport, NOT a passport issued by a government still IN EXILE, a self-claimed government that has no territory (I believer the Indian government wouldn’t like to lend their lands to such a government permanently), a government whose legitimacy is not recognized by any independent country on this planet.

Not even a single one.

Are we clear now?

zt为什么“这里没人相信中国的话”？(德国之声)

一名德国读者在关于西藏问题的网上评论中说：无论中国现在怎么说，这里没有一个人会相信。人们只相信西藏人说的。这里指出了一个现实的、非常严重的问题。 他开出了几个“药方”。德国之声记者就此发表如下评论，认为：“祖宗不足法”说得很对，中国必须改变一些传统的观念和做法，有大的举措和大的气度，由刚转柔。因为：情况已经很危急了。 Read more »

撒野

有个人凌晨四点跑到这里来撒野。留言删了。别以为用了学校的IP我就不知道你是谁，下不为例，好自为之。
关于西藏，事情是这样的。现在奴隶主打着保存藏文化的旗子要求回来继续做奴隶主，然后还有一群不明事理或者明事理没安好心的人帮着吆喝。强盗自有一套双重标准和强盗逻辑。这样下去，苏格兰可以从英国独立了，冲绳应该复辟琉球国。如果我们学校哪个美国人印度人孟加拉人韩国人尼泊尔人日本人再来纠缠这个问题，请用中文和我辩论。大家要用中文，外国人要辩论请用中文。西藏是中国的西藏，西藏问题是中国的问题，外国人要和中国人讨论中国问题请用中文。

普鲁斯特问卷

1.你认为最完美的快乐是怎样的？

大大的恭喜

恭喜某人，大大的恭喜。我也很高兴。

那封信发出去了。我想通了，我不难过。物理完全是没有钱的，拿个炸药奖也不过一百多万。我现在深刻地体会到，搞物理尤其是理论物理的人除非遇上战争年代，都是要饿死的。

但是我那么喜欢，有什么办法。如果什么都不用考虑，我想每个夜晚登上荒原的天文台，守着辽阔星空，不睡。

开始写俳句

最近发生了太多的事，心里好乱。我开始写俳句：

（一）无常

昨夜梦见
黑白无常纠结
伸手，床头一本VOGUE

（二）扣子错了

烟的一头你皱眉说爱我
我笑
扣子扣错了
（三）井

爱人眼里
藏着一口井
井藏着
另一个自己
