The Olympics should teach us something: it is a competitive world. Teams that do not accept discipline from their coaches are at a disadvantage. Teams that will allow you to play regardless of how many practices you miss will fail. Teams on which the members do not really care if they win or not will not prosper. Human rights activists are globalists and multiculturalists tell us that we have no core culture - both undermine our sense of team. We do not gain by decrying China for knowing it is a sovereign nation with a different culture. Culturists say we should enjoy the Olympics and learn from China. We should rally for our team, instead of decrying theirs.
中国奥运让很多美国人苦恼。他们担心中国的影响力、军事、经济和人权纪录。我们应该担心我们在奥运和经济上无法有效地与中国竞争。在与他们打交道时我们应该是亲西方的、竞争的,就像他们在和我们打交道时是亲中国的、竞争的。但我们不应该坚持认为中国将变成自由民主体。我们要认识到,所谓的“人权”真的是一个西方概念。
在奥运开始时,那些坚信普世人权的人就开始抗议中国。他们基本上是在说全世界都必须接受西方的对与错标准。我们似乎认为我们的方式无可否认适用于全世界,但别忘了中国在1978年至1992年间GDP翻两番。它后来增长得更快。我们贸易赤字庞大,却告诉中国要怎样生活。他们可能有理由怀疑罪犯权利、高中生权利以及自由媒体能否带来胜利。
