大家好 欢迎来到《不明白播客》 我是主持人袁立 2023年就要结束了 我们想征集听众朋友们一起来做一期播客 2023年你最不明白的一件事是什么? 请讲一个小故事 而不是发表感想或者评论 形式可以是语音 也可以是文本 期待着大家的分享 谢谢 20大之后 习近平进入第三届任期 政治局常委由清一色的习家军占据 习近平的权力可谓达到了顶峰 然而 2023年这一年 中国的政治、经济、外交都出现了不少怪事 ...

志愿者虽然是个外来概念，但一直根植于中国传统文化中。那些助人为乐、不图回报的仁人志士，自古史不绝书。战国末期齐国人鲁仲连，帮助赵国解除了秦兵的围困，但拒受千金之谢，他一语道出了志愿者的本质：“所贵于天下之士者，为人排患、释难、解纷乱而无取也。即有取者，是商贾之事也。”简单概括就是：助人解困，不取报酬。 ...

终于看完了中华民国总统大选首场辩论，我哭了。 谁说支那人只配当奴隶？谁说国人不配有民主？这是中华民族的荣耀时刻，一雪五千年专制之耻。 我希望看到未来的中国，对内民主，对外强大，人民自由，社会公义，权力受到约束，法治得以实行。国人成为自己的拯救者与解放者，不会再有人在公共场所吸烟。

终于看完了中华民国总统大选首场辩论，我哭了。 谁说支那人只配当奴隶？谁说国人不配有民主？这是中华民族的荣耀时刻，一雪五千年专制之耻。 我希望看到未来的中国，对内民主，对外强大，人民自由，社会公义，权力受到约束，法治得以实行。国人成为自己的拯救者与解放者，不会再有人在公共场所吸烟。 台湾大选，不但给我们展示了美好中国的DEMO版，还为我们展示了什么是美好的国语。例如，竞选人频频用“升斗小民”，这比“老百姓”这类土鳖词汇不知温文尔雅了多少倍。不但中华民国在台湾，中华文化也在台湾。如果把台湾政治语汇同大陆的政治语言做一个比较，那简直就是拿哈姆雷特父亲跟哈姆雷特的叔叔做比较。 ...

Occupy Wall Street protest: NYPD accused of heavy-handed tactics:  > > Force criticised by protesters, who claim they were deliberately led on to road before being penned in and arrested > > The New York police department has come under criticism for heavy-handed tactics during the Occupy Wall Street march over Brooklyn bridge, after more than 700 protesters were held for several hours. > > Activists, as well as commentators following the protest against inequality and corporate excess, claim the response of the city's police force to the peaceful event was vastly out of proportion. Almost 1,000 people have been arrested in two weeks – substantially more than the number of financiers who led the world into the 2008 economic meltdown. > > As Salman Rushdie put it in a tweet: "The world's economy has been wrecked by these rapacious traders. Yet it is the protesters who are jailed." > > The march began on Saturday afternoon in Zuccotti Park, the Manhattan the base of the core of 200 or so OWS demonstrators. By the time it reached Brooklyn bridge it had swollen to several thousand. > > Accounts vary as to how about 500 protesters ended up on one lane of the road across the bridge, where they were all penned in with orange netting and arrested. Some accused the police of leading them on to the road as a sort of trap. > > Video clips [posted on YouTube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz67fULXc-0&feature=player_embedded), showing a small body of officers marching on to the road ahead of the mass of demonstrators, appeared to support this view. > > But the NYPD rejected those claims, saying that many warnings were given by police to protesters to stay on the pedestrian walkway that runs across the bridge at a level above the road. Paul Browne, the deputy commissioner, said protesters were clearly told that if they went on to the road they would be arrested. "Some complied and took the walkway without being arrested. Others proceeded on the Brooklyn-bound vehicular roadway and were," he said. > > The police version of events was supported by some protesters. > > Malcolm Harris, a blogger who took part in the march,[ tweeted](https://twitter.com/#!/destructuremal) that the police were wrong-footed. "The police didn't lead us on to the bridge. They were backing the fuck up." > > Other participants suggested the confluence of so many on the road was a misunderstanding. Robert Cammiso, 48, told the Associated Press: "We were supposed to go up the pedestrian roadway. There was a huge funnel, a bottleneck, and we couldn't fit. People jumped from the walkway on to the roadway. We thought the roadway was open to us." > > The NYPD was accused of over-weening behaviour towards the protesters once they were "kettled" on the bridge. [Video footage](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1tCYAEDl6g) showed police grappling with protesters and strong-arming them away, despite no apparent signs of violence. > > The same footage shows the arrest of a young woman or girl wearing a cloth hat. Her age is not clear – she could be as young as 13 or as old as 20 – but the crowd clearly thought she was a child and chanted: "Shame, shame, shame." > > Others chanted: "You can't arrest an idea" and "Let us out, let us out." > > The Battle of Brooklyn Bridge, as some dubbed it, came as protests begun in Manhattan spread across America. There were smaller but substantial demonstrations over the weekend in [Los Angeles](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1tCYAEDl6g), [Chicago](http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2011/10/01/police-try-to-divert-critical-mass-ride-away-from-occupy-chicago-protest/), [Boston](http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c%5C_id=2&objectid=10756043), [Denver](http://www.9news.com/news/local/article/222412/346/Occupy-Denver-speaks-out-against-Wall-Street-), [Washington](http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/130913088.html) and several other cities. In New York, most of those arrested were released early on Sunday with a citation for disorderly conduct. Brooklyn bridge was reopened by late evening, but the dramatic scenes there and the prevailing feeling that the police action was excessive are only likely to fuel the demonstrations as they carry on this week. > > * [Occupy Wall Street](http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/occupy-wall-street) > * [Protest](http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/protest) > * [New York](http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/new-york) > * [United States](http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/usa) > > [Ed Pilkington](http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/edpilkington) > > guardian.co.uk © 2011 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

The Skeletons in Deng’s Closet - By Christian Caryl | Foreign Policy My favorite quote comes from Deng’s youngest son: “My father thinks Gorbachev is an idiot.” Oddly enough, whenever Vogel brings up the subject, it’s the party that gets to decide what constitutes Chinese values. The critics somehow never do. He tells us that some of the critical texts put up to public view on Beijing’s Democracy Wall, the place where a remarkable spirit of pluralism was allowed to flourish for a few months starting in late 1978, “were posted by other young people who were inspired by their newfound freedom but, having lived in a closed society, lacked the experience and wisdom to inform or temper their judgments.” People’s Daily couldn’t have put it better.

Israel, Palestine and the United Nations Yes to Palestinian statehood Efforts to stop the Palestinians from winning statehood at the UN are misguided and self-defeating Israel, Palestine and the United Nations: Yes to Palestinian statehood | The Economist American and Israelite leaders are so short-sighted and stupid.
