进步社会 Cattivi questi...

"AK47 toting panda, who lives in U.S."

Jinbu Shehui ("advance society") is a new website that promotes what passes for leftist thinking in China. Articles on the website criticize anyone who has sympathies to the West or criticizes the Chinese government.

It's masthead includes this amusing picture of a bamboo leaf chewing, AK47 toting panda bear.

Less amusing is its gallery of 'slaves to the West', comprising a range of intellectuals and writers including bad boy novelist Han Han, famous Caixin editor Hu Shuli, rights lawyer Xu Zhiyong, Nobel peace Prize winner Liu Xiaobo, and history teacher Yuan Tengfei. Each photo has been doctored to show the "slave" with a hangman's noose around his or her neck.

Interestingly, the person behind this website who hates the West so much is almost certainly living in the United States. The domain name jinbushe.org was registered with the American domain registrar GoDaddy.com and the website is currently hosted on a server in the U.S.
