-Some ideas:
+The key dilemma is is:
 
-* This embargo is a bit different than other in the following sense:
-* Programmers are more likely to develop better Firewall climbing tools if SO is blocked
-* If we don't take any action to show our dissatisfaction, the dictatorship never ends.
+* if we keep contact with the Dictatorship, maybe its people will see that democracy is better and start a liberating revolution
+* if we keep giving technology to the Dictatorship and it does not become a democracy, we are making a Dictatorship more technologically advanced, and therefore <<war,dangerous>>
+
+Some interesting aspects of the keyword attack embargo:
+
+* it is immediately self enforcing: we don't need politicians to decide and enforce the complex "if you do this, we punish you like that" question.
 +
-The commies exist like any other organization for a sole purpose: maintain their own power.
-+
-If nothing is done to show dissatisfaction, they will never give up on that power.
-+
-There are two extremes of action (both which _I don't_ support):
-+
-* everyone become a willing mindless slave of the leader: perfect stability
-* everyone take up arms and do terrorism: perfect instability
-+
-But between those two extremes, what is the right measure? I think that saying nothing is too close to stability.
-+
-I do see that one alternative scenario is that if we do nothing, maybe there will be more and more contact with Western countries, and the Chinese will see for themselves that we are not that bad, and eventually request democracy.
-* Even if programmers get very powerful, it is not very likely that they will succeed to undo the dictatorship, they simply don't have enough power.
-+
-I'd rather have a less strong dictatorship, than one with good programmers.
+By political and technological information is together, and this immediately puts the dictatorship in a bad spot, without us having to decide anything.
+* by affecting programmers in particular through Stack Overflow and GitHub, we make them more likely to develop better Firewall climbing tools themselves
+
+One point in favor of the embargo is that China has opened up since the 80's 90's, but did freedom improve at all? Under Xi Jinping, it may be argued that it did not, and maybe that we should just stop feeding them technology and accept that they won't become free.

 The commies do this because most foreign countries are telling the Chinese to get rid of the dictatorship.
