If you actually want to have a discussion of those differences then you're going to need to point them out yourself instead of dumping a homework assignment in everyone's lap since: 1) I don't read Chinese, and I doubt I'm alone here when it comes to that 2) Google translate is far from perfect, and unless the differences are clear to someone who merely gets the gist of the Chinese article they probably won't come across

It's amazing how easily one can translate something these days instead of complain about having to read Chinese (http://translate.google.com/ http://translate.google.com/): People [edit] The People's Republic of China since the founding of the ruling Communist Party of China, early through art, propaganda's "no new China without the Communist Party," "stability overrides everything" and other slogans, considered by some to be "brainwashed" behavior. Chinese Communist Party controls the media, civil society without freedom of opinion, but also through education, partial rendering methods such as modern history "positive ideological propaganda" has also been considered to be brainwashed behavior. Some have commented that the PRC during the Cultural Revolution massive and continuous education communist propaganda campaign, obviously brainwashing behavior; when opponents of the CPC will be treated as people designated as "class enemies," these people forcibly impose "Labour transformation "(labor camps)," thought reform ", power and violence, so that the whole community lost almost everyone free will to think independently. [12] People's Republic of China Central Television, the official television media, is accused of playing the part of the existence of "brainwashing" refers to a Chinese young scholars CCTV braids play through indoctrination autocracy, to create personality I was poisoned the atmosphere of freedom and democracy to China, there brainwashing significance, and CCTV "News Network" selective "glossy", such as "propaganda network." [13] [14] However, the Chinese Communist Party and its supporters do not agree with these criticisms. English "brainwash" means "brainwashed" by the Chinese "brainwashing" translated from the word; in the late 1950s along the Korean War, American soldiers were captured after the People's Liberation Army, day and night to accept the idea of transformation of the Chinese Communist Party, were rescued after back to the U.S., even speak good words to help the Chinese Communist Party, then the U.S. correspondent Edward Hunter to use the term to describe the matter brainwash.

  Automated translation of East Asian languages into English is typically a source of much unintended hilarity. People therefore don't trust it. Aside from that, Google Translate can be downright odd sometimes. Like what it did to Lorem Ipsum: http://www.theatlanticwire.com/technology/2010/10/google-translate-vs-latin-dummy-text/18749/ http://www.theatlanticwire.com/technology/2010/10/google-tra... http://www.zagg.com/community/blog/lorem-ipsum-text-translation-funny/ http://www.zagg.com/community/blog/lorem-ipsum-text-translat...

  I notice the original comment was amended to say Google Translate needs work (obviously), but I think it adds value, so here's a full comparison: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainwashing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainwashing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thought_reform_in_the_People%27s_Republic_of_China http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thought_reform_in_the_People%27... Chinese translated to English: http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fzh.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F%25E6%25B4%2597%25E8%2585%25A6&act=url http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=n&pre...

  All this does for me is raise the question: why, if it's so easy, wasn't the translation posted to begin with? Keep in mind that the user who dropped that untranslated brick on us has massive karma so that low-effort post is now parked at the top of the thread.

    Getting a little too meta here but your original comment was only: "If you actually want to have a discussion of those differences then you're going to need to point them out yourself instead of dumping a homework assignment in everyone's lap" but then you changed it to indicate you didn't think a Google translation was good enough. He probably didn't post a translation because he knows most of us can either use Google translate or can read Chinese. That doesn't bother me and it shouldn't bother you. I posted the translation because I think some people (including myself) need help reading Chinese and because I don't see value in bitching about someone copying and pasting Chinese. It's not homework. It's just Chinese.
