Twitter launched a community watch program yesterday that is straight from Mao Zedong's deadly "people have sharp eyes" program - encouraging neighbors to report on neighbors that think differently.
Millions died in China from this program.

@sinbach I appreciate that you tie this back to something that already occurred in China and show us the implications! I'd never heard of that Chinese program before.. very sad.

@icecream thnx. i am a history buff and after living in china for more than 20 years - have written more on the history and persecution of the underground house church than almost any other author. The censoring of speech that I am seeing in the US and targeting of Christians on social media is not new, but can be found in every single communist society. The tools are different, but the mindset and implementation are almost exactly the same.
