Thomas asked: How is this SO different than sacrificing your life for the good of the party? Neither the Dictatorship of the Proleteriat (with a lot of help from the Transcendent Party), nor capital cares about life.

---well...I guess we'd have to talk about context, i.e. which party, when, where, under what conditions....the way you ask the question here is kind of abstract, while the report the friend of mine sent from his stay in China is addressed to a rather specific context and time frame...

Steve, whose newborn has a head of hair that rocks..........
