About the author

“I’m equally ashamed that I have been an unwitting dupe to fall for this blatant, state-corporate brainwashing most of my life. Not anymore. Like Neo in The Matrix, since returning to China four years ago, I am renouncing the blue pill and opting for the red one. Thanks to my experiences here, I can now forgo the Matrix’s fabricated reality and stop living in its illusion of ignorance. Living and working here in Sinoland, inside the belly of the 21st Century Beast, has taught me to escape from the Matrix, to be fully sentient in the real world, embracing Morpheus’ truth of reality.”

Much obliged for this personal tale of awakening. I suppose there’s never a “too late” when it comes to discovering truth and justice, and redeeming our own participation in these great crimes. The sheer hypocrisy of the American government, the Brits, and now the French, is really appalling. Not a scintilla of decency left in this game of massive deception.
Will be reading your columns with great anticipation.
