  34. Laowhy, since you mentioned the USSR, I would like to add that many of the things you said about China and Nazi Germany also apply to the Soviet Union (such as being a one-party state, having no freedom of speech, using sports as a political propaganda tool, among other things). A key difference, however, between the USSR and China is that the USSR had a very closed and protecionist economy, and did very little trade when compared to modern China. In fact, China became so rich due to the vast amount of trade it does that it can now afford to export its censorship standards to the rest of the world. Since China is a very relevant market for many American companies, this means that these companies will often censor themselves so they can sell their products and services inside China. The USSR, on the other hand, wasn't a relevant market for U.S. companies, and this also meant that these companies couldn't care less about what the Soviet goverment thought of them. The Chinese goverment is VERY aware of this, and is using its economical influence to try to shape what people all around the world think of its rule. This is very evident in the movie industry, for example. During the 80's, we had movies like Rambo and Red Dawn, where the protagonists mowed down dozens of soviet soldiers, but nowadays there isn't a single Chinese villain in a major Hollywood production. Let's not forget that the 2011 Red Dawn remake changed its villains from Chinese to North Koreans in order to appease the Chinese government. The CCP is often portrayed in a very positive light in Hollywood (just take a look at the Transformers movies, for instance). The west is selling out the core values of its civilization (such as rule of law and freedom of speech) in exchange for cheap phones made in mainland China.
