Chinese Peasant Rebellion
Ogged of Unfogged notes a Washington Post story about a successful peasant rebellion against Microsoft. Woops! I mean the PRC police.
"Most of the violent grass-roots eruptions have been put down, hard and fast. This report examines the origin and unfolding of one revolt that went the other way. "We won a big victory," declared a farmer who described the protest on condition that his name be withheld, lest police arrest him as a ringleader. "We protected our land. And anyway, the government should not have sent so many people to suppress us."
WTG, Peasants!
