Wow, you make your point and then run away stating "I'm not going to involve myself in any more of these discussions.", how nice.<p>First of all, China was not communist for 5000 years, so not sure where that is coming from.<p>No one is criticizing China for being different, all countries in the World are different, no two are the same, yet we criticize some and admire others.<p>China is being criticized for:<p>1) Complete and utter disregard of IP of companies in other countries. Ex: Huawei vs Cisco, IP theft against Google and other 30+ companies and numerous others.<p>2) More example of blatant copies of cars: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2005/04/16/chinese-copy-cats/" rel="nofollow">http://www.autoblog.com/2005/04/16/chinese-copy-cats/</a><p>3) Censoring of information to its citizens. Even Iran, from what I can tell, is better than China at the moment.<p>4) Organized, and fairly obviously state sponsored, network intrusion attacks on other countries.<p>5) Human rights violations, whether in Tibet, or any other 
place.<p>6) Complete disregard to environment.<p>7) Hegemony of neighboring, and much smaller, states.<p>8) Australia blocks investment of China in Rio Tinto, within next few days China arrest Rio Tinto's China head in espionage charges.<p>The list goes on and goes, and none of the above is fabricated, it's all public news
