At a recent press conference, a reporter asked the chairman of the Chinese Olympic Committee about China’s Olympic slogan, "One world, one dream."

"As recently as ten years ago," said the reporter, "Chinese leaders expressed their plans to spread Communism throughout the world by the use of force. How do you respond to critics who believe the ’one world’ idea in the Olympic slogan sounds like a plan for world conquest?"

"That’s ridiculous," said the Chinese spokesman. " ’One world’ simply refers to the fact that the entire world is gathering together in Beijing for the Olympics. It’s a statement of unity. Any suggestion that China is trying to conquer the world is absurd."

And what about the ’one dream’ part of the slogan?" asked the reporter. "What is the dream?"

"A utopian society founded on Marxist principles, of course."
