殘症人士奧運會:中共真的傷健同樂,社會共融?
套用中共為自己開創的「局部勝全局」思維,中共說奧運是綠色,(在北京城以內)自然就是綠色奧運,因此,如今中共再辨殘症人士奧運會,顧名思義,自然代表中共國在(在北京城中舉辦殘症人士奧運會時),中共國(在北京城中)真的傷健同樂的和諧社會了。明報在報導時,當然可以忽略括號中的時間(舉辦殘症人士奧運會)、地點(北京城)、人物(參與殘症人士奧運會的中外健兒),讓香港人以為中共對待傷健人士一向都是一流的;而以在北京奧運拍中共馬屁聞名的無線,自然是「血脈沸騰、身為中國人很嬌傲、中(共)國真的是傷健同樂的和諧社會」,兩者只差未把余秋雨大師的「在中共國,仲做傷健人仕,也幸福」宣之於口而已。
話說回來,在以最低標準來看,環保最低程度亦真是中共的國策,最勉強可以說成中共的專制官僚不懂如何去真正的環保,想而有心無力;但是利用殘症人士奧運會把中共說成中(共)國真的傷健同樂,社會共融;這個謊也未免撤得太離譜了嗎?正常人用常識去想一想,是不是全中國的城市都是達到無障城市的標準,我已經不談中共國全國了,及不及得上香港;另外,你看深圳滿街都是愛滋病人,傷健人仕的基本生活保障又如何呢?中共國有沒有像香港一樣的平等機會組織保護傷健人仕的各種權益,還是隨隨便便一份工作都可以在招聘廣告上聲明只要俊男美女?另外,如果中共真的是尊重傷健人仕的話,北京奧運時在北京為什麼一個傷健人仕都不見,反是個個都貌美如花,身體健全呢?而中共的各級政府/黨組織中,有沒有一定比例的傷健人仕作成員呢?而中共的各級政府/黨組織中,有沒有代表傷健人仕的組織、委員會呢?
依此邏緝,香港的馬屁精無線電視,反智的明報大慨會以為觀衆真的會相信,中共只要再辦國際文化比賽,則中共國是世界文化之首;中共只要再辦國際棋藝比賽,則中共的民智是世界前列;中共只要再辦世界華人發明比賽,則中共國是世界上最有創意的國家;中共只要再辦窮人奧運,則中共國是窮人天堂;中共只要再辦同性戀奧運,則中共國是不同性向者的天堂。大凡是社會問題,中共只要搞個「運動」會就可以消失,則中共國頓成人間樂士!

香港的環保奧運馬術賽?
無錯,奧運馬術比賽的過程好像十分環保,但是把馬匹由世界各地運產生的大量二氧化碳算不算環保呢?最環保的方法莫過於把所有奧運比賽集中在一處,減低運動 員及觀衆來來回回產生的廢氣,絕不是為了政治需要而把馬術比賽生硬拆出來在香港舉辦?另外,奧運馬術場地為了令馬匹保持在最佳狀態,要把冷氣常開,消秏大 量能量,就算不會產生大量廢氣,亦會產生大量廢熱,加劇溫室效應。另外,為辦奧運馬術比賽大事宣傳,宣傳的方法及過程是否合乎環保原則,沒有浪費?另外, 既然是辦比賽,當然希望有最多的觀衆到場,而不是他們都分別在家中透過互聯網觀看,但是哪一種方法會產生更少的溫室氣體和空氣污染?相反,如果奧馬宣傳收 效不大,是不是浪費了大量的能量?此外,因為奧運馬術比賽,而把不少附近的公共設施關閉,市民不能使用用公帑支持的公共設施,算不算浪費天然資源?而汽車 /巴士因此被逼改道,又會不會產生更多廢氣?最後,如果奧運馬術比賽最終的目的是支持中共繼續用最低效率的政治體制生存,以對自然更大的壓搾來換取社會 「穩定」,而不是嘗試反省其制度上的問題,則綠色奧運,不外乎是廢話一句!
Green Olympic?
Beijing win the bid for 2008 Olympic by label it as Green Olympic, and I think label is the best description of the level of understanding of the concept of Environmentalism by Communist China, much akin to its level of understanding of Chinese culture, if any other than the custom and ritual, otherwise why the necessity of Cultural Revolution?
Environmentalism has its roots in beginning which man is separated from Nature as a whole when s/he gain consciousness, then religion is born to compensate this lost. By the advent of industrialization, the relationship between humanity and nature is further deteriorate to the role of exploiter. Capitalism, which is the embodiment of industrialization, has extend the idea of making profit through exploitation instead of cooperation to its fullest extend. Environmentalism grow as a movement to reshape the connection between humanity and nature from that of exploitation to harmony, from competition to cooperation. Therefore the idea Green Capitalism is something close to oxymoron, so do the idea of Green Olympic.
The most Environmental friendly way of doing Olympic is NOT doing it at all. Consider how many carbon dioxide and Green house gas is emitted by sportspersons and tourists when they are traveling to Beijing by airplane or other means of transportation? How would it add to the Green House effect? Is that a requirement of Beijing Olympic committee for all the travel to be carbon neutral? To be less demanding, since Internet is not advance to a level that the sportsperson could compete through the Internet, but at least we can reduce the amount of expenditure of energy by all watching the events from the Internet. Would the holder of Green Olympic welcome this idea if it is sincerely believe in the goods of environment?
Definitely not, since what beneath the surface of Green Olympic is a dog-eat-dog ultra-capitalistic society. The goal of this ‘Green Olympic’ is to maximize the amount of tourist and the amount of consumption to fill the expanding appetite of citizen who substitute the political freedom to that of freedom of buy-and-sell-anything-they-wanted from dog to endangered species to personal airplane to sex salve. How would hundreds and thousands of tourist and sportsperson do to the already fragile and overloaded ecosystem in China? Is that also a requirement from Beijing Olympic Committee for all tourists and sportspersons to behave in ecologically sensitive way throughout the Olympic Game? Does Beijing Olympic Committee constructed the Beijing in such a way that whatever the tourist and sportsperson do, it would always be carbon neutral and not causing any pollution and damage to environment? It certainly contradict the real goal of Beijing Olympic. Do we expect Beijing Olympic Committee to ensure capitalist who just made huge profit during the Olympic Game to be environmental considerate when spending their money? Does Beijing Olympic Committee ever concern of the effect on the environment after this artificial booming of economy?
Moreover, how would it do to the environments other than the city of Beijing when most of resource and attention is devoted to Beijing for the sake of window dressing? Since ecosystem is inherently a connected whole, by overfocusing on one place to be detriment of other would not do much good to environment of China as a whole, let alone the Earth as a whole. How sincere is its goal of benefit the environment of China as a whole when Communist China shut down the website of Green activist, and place them under house arrest, knowing that would increase the level of corruption in other cities?
If Beijing Olympic could be consider as a Green Olympic by solely focus on the process of Olympic Games but not the context under which it is happening, then why don’t we nominate Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Polpot for Nobel Peace Prize because they reduce the load on environment by massacring million of their own citizens?

環保的北京奧運?
北京奧運稱自己為環保奧運會,因為它的場所建成時合乎環境保護的標準,而能源亦是來自太陽 能,但是有沒有人從整體的角度去看北京奧運如何合乎環保呢?說環保不單是目標環保,過程、方法和結果同樣要環保。而環保思維,並不單單是指物質層面上的環 保,亦指精神/社會/政治/經濟上的環保;環保指的是人重建被工業文明的演進而破壞的和大自然的關係,而最後的目標不單是人和環境的和諧,亦指人和人之間 的和諧,亦指前者和後者的和諧,而最終的目的是重新把人放到自然的一部份去生活。因為工業文明最大的破壞不單是自然環境,亦是把人和自然的關係由平等改成 人類征服自然,同時人本身亦被資本主義的經濟模式異化人和其他人之間都成了互相利用的關係。現在中共國的「超級資本主義」經濟模式,不單是國家把人當成經 濟生產的工具,凡事只考慮人的經濟價值,因為國家和人之間的關係是剝削,人所以和人之間的關係亦是剝削;因為人和人之間的關係亦是剝削,所以人和自然環境 的關係亦是剝削。例如中共硬性規定汽車依車牌的單雙數隔日行車,表面上是一時減低了空氣污染,卻沒有考慮當日不可以開車的車主的生活需要,以環保之名去腐 蝕他們的行動自由,環保因此成了不少人的公敵,如此的環保政策,以人和環境為名向人和人的和諧宣戰,忽略了人本身亦是大自然的一部份,人的需要亦是環保的 考慮,環保是要有機的手段去解決整個生活模式帶來的問題,考慮現在亦考慮將來。依此思路想到:會不會因為減少了北京現在的空氣污染,卻增加了其他地區的空 氣污染?會不會因為減少了北京現在的空氣污染,卻將來北京的空氣污染?會不會因為減少了北京現在的空氣污染,卻增加將來行管制空氣污染政策的難度?
最環保的奧林匹克運會,應該是各國的觀衆留在自己國家,透過人造衛星轉播觀看北京奧運會,因為大量的觀衆搭各種交通工具前往北京,會排出大量的溫室氣體, 加速地球暖化,當然北京不會應承。而北京奧運會更會豉勵遊客盡情消費,如何的消費才合乎環保原則?就算生產過程如何環保,但消費一些本來不會消費的物品即 是浪費,如何合乎環保的原則?另外,如何保證遊客在北京奧運會其間的一舉一動都合乎環保原則?如何確保生產遊客消費品的過程及結果都合乎環保原則?如何確 保中共國人不會因為收入增加,奧運會完成後更大量的消費,間接破壞環境?如何確保中共不會因為北京奧運會得來的大量收入用在最破壞環境,不理人民死活的土 木工程上呢?另外,因為北京奧運會,而被漠視了其他的環境問題,如沙膜化、水土流失、水源及空氣污染惡化,又如何合乎環保原則?因為北京奧運會,北京拒絕 各地民衆因涉及環境的問題上訪北京,做成地方政府可以膜視各地的環境問題,又如何合乎環保原則?因為北京奧運會,北京拒絕各地民衆上訪北京,做成地方政府 更明目張膽侵吞原本用來改善環境的款項,又如何合乎環保原則?因為北京奧運會,中共補捉環保份子,關閉他們的網站,阻礙他們用民間的力量去監察地方政府在 環境問題上胡作非為,又如何合乎環保原則?
如果北京奧運會可以算環保,為什麼希特拉、毛澤東、赤柬的波爾布特不可以因大量減低人口,降低地球生態系統負擔而獲提名為諾具爾和平獎得主?
