Chairman Mee-ow
Massey University magazine Chaff has caused some controversy over it's latest issue - it depicts a parody of a Cosmopolitan Magazine cover (calling it 'Commopolitan') complete with Chairman Mao in a dress. Chinese students at Massey University are upset and have protested the publication, likening it as offensive to them as the infamous Danish 'Mohammed' Cartoons.
Of course, Mao Zedong's Great Leap Forward created mass starvation and his Cultural Revolution lead to the torture, imprisonment and execution of many Chinese (along with the destruction of items from Chinese History), plus his 'Ballroom Dancing' with teenage girls make him the perfect target for this sort of lampoon.

I thought it was brilliant - when I used to study at Massey I would always look forward to the day when the weekly Chaff was published.
Also it so funny when the Chinse student who was protesting against racism compared Mao to Jesus.
Opps..I think he just offend Christians.
I think he needs to aplogoise.

It is time to point out how deeply brain-washed the people in China are. They just simply buy everything the party taught them. They have double standards on many things if you know them.
Pity those students...
