I always loved the name Johnny.
hey Commies!
The man in black has a song for you.

"The white paper represent everything we want to say but cannot say."
Is this Reuters racism on display? Did "Johnny" really speak in such a stereotype? Did he even speak English at all?
What was the reason for not printing represents?
A cargo cult in an authoritarian society... deja vu.
