line-height: 1.75; margin-top: 18px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;">中国政府营造的恐惧感绝不仅仅笼罩在那些所谓不听话的异议人士头顶。就我的观察,普通百姓、一般的政府工作人员和共产党干部所感觉、所体认的恐惧感要远远高于异议人士。我有的朋友经常告诉我说自己的电话又被监听了,因为电话里有回声啥啥,或者自己这两天说了啥话,议论了啥政治题目。多数情况下,我遇到这种情况会告诉他,你郝老师混到今天还没混上有人全天候监听我的电话呢。我曾经找内部人打听过,实际情况是,电信部门会把我们的手机通讯信息储存一段时间,需要时可以调出来。像德国电影窃听风暴那样的戴着耳机监听已经不需要了。</p><p style="border: 0px;

line-height: 1.75; margin-top: 18px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;">当然,成功营造恐惧,中国政府感首先还得靠实在的、强有力的政治手段。我总跟我的朋友黎学文开玩笑,说不会有人监听他电话,但是,只因为他去年在广东江门海边参加了祭奠刘晓波的活动就被抓捕。根据当时情况,朋友们怀疑他是被比监听电话更高级的技术人脸识别系统所捕获。</p><p style="border: 0px;

line-height: 1.75; margin-top: 18px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;">刘霞终于得到了一个公民应该有的一项基本权利,获准离开中国了。但是与我们所有中国人一样,现实的政治威胁,长期在高压的、毒化的政治氛围中生活已经在我们大脑里打造成坚实的精神枷锁,这无形枷锁还会紧紧禁锢着我们的言行。柏林,客西马尼Gethsemane church教堂,1989年10月9日那一天,那里走出的手持蜡烛的人们为柏林墙的倒塌起到重要作用。2018年7月13日星期五,刘晓波逝世周年追忆将在这里举行,他的遗孀刘霞近在咫尺却不能出席。对此,廖天琪说&#8220;刘霞不是身体虚弱而不能出席,而是她的弟弟刘晖仍在中国,她不愿意见到一些事情会发生。&#8221;对于刘霞和刘晖姐弟的选择,我完全理解,在过去和现在的中国现实中,几乎任何人都没法比他们做得更好。</p><p style="border: 0px;
