奧運教育

奧運還未開始,各方人等早已興奮不已。大量宣傳說這是大國崛起的象徵。問題是,當有示威或杯葛之聲時,卻又高呼運動與政治應該分家。修辭學早已不在大學之道,但明顯現代人有必要重新學起這門先賢的技藝。

火炬到達倫敦(直至六點半新聞播完之前),已經先後遇到兩次騷擾。

胡佳因言論被捕。搶奪聖火的行為,只是作為他的言論的延伸。在胡佳的網頁PROFILE裏,寫的是「生而自由」。讀壞書了,在那條看不見的邊界裏。搶奪聖火,本來大家都知道不會成功,但行為卻是表達態度的方法。尤其是,你以為與政府溝通是理性的行為,但結果最「合適」的表達是沉默,打哈哈,或者顧左右而言他的時候。胡先生,你要說的,別人代你說。

胡佳去年七一,行文「慶回歸」,說中港經濟政治大融合之餘,香港的言論自由卻不曾回歸祖國。他羨慕,當然羨慕。他所說的,黃毓民二十年已經說過:一國為甚麼要兩制呢?那不過是當年驚青的香港人死命要訂下的條款;或者是鄧老一廂情願,認為台灣人會一見鍾情的手段。而至於胡佳這篇《一國無需兩制》的文章,裏面對香港的言論自由的讚許和比較,你用「曾蔭權」加「言論自由」GOOGLE一下,你會找到差不多的言論;就算是那些對中國貪腐的指控,在最開放的內地雜誌的縫間,我以為我窺看到開放的異象。

當然,黃毓民沒有以言被拘捕,而KURSK兄也可以高呼我杯葛北京奧運,曾蔭權更升其官發其財,在那條我們自作的邊界之外。但,讓我覺得尷尬的是,異見者畢竟還是被捕。或者,我可以安慰自己說,那是保守勢力回應改革勢頭的逆流。

五月聖火來到香港。大部份香港人還是引頸以待。不過,等的態度,迎接的心情,和回應的行動,肯定比誰都複雜。我說不出杯葛甚麼的,但那個火炬最好別在我眼前出現。奧運教育,國民教育,教甚麼?

(註:胡佳在MSN SPACE的網頁昨晚還可以登入的,但今天已似乎不可以了。)

It is exactly because we are the ones who can tell people where to draw the lines that we have much greater responsibility to our advocacy. Otherwise, how can we be the fighters of democracy or the defenders of human rights? Are there anyone really trying to do something to the society of China and opening the mind of Mainland Chinese so that they are ready to the international standard instead of only messing up every substandard activities of Chinese Government with the Olympic Games? I understand the confusion here but at the same time I am really hurt to see someone rejecting everything by observing something substandard, especially when these someone are supposed to be Chinese.

The problem is that Olympics not only let them see the world, but also beautify the disgrace of the government.

My conscience doesn't let me just sit and see everything. If our government did something wrong and we do nothing, that's just like telling it that "just go on, we are indifferent about your sin".

看了文章。

看來胡佳的「罪」就跟程翔的一樣﹕都是說得太「白」,把所有中共忌諱的事實都抖了出來,所以才招致囹圄之災。
