Chinese are no more lunatic than anyone else.

Thanks for the politically correct correction.

By the way, my unsubtle friend, I said "lunatic communists." I did not say lunatic Chinese. Not all people in China actually approve of the communist regime and not all are communists. Since China has 1.3 billion people, I made plenty of room for the sane minority.

As for the idea that authoritarian government does not affect a population's sanity, esp. that of its most ardent supporters, history refutes that claim. There isn't a single authoritarian regime in history that hasn't harmed the sanity of its people. I will stand by what I said.

Your tacit accusation of racism is callow and tiresome.
