<<<<The term refers to the government, not the people.   Throughout
their communist history they have always been referred to as "Red
Chinese", a term derived from the so-called "Red Army" because of the
military banner they salute. It is also a term that has been accepted
and used not only by the U.S. government and military but also by many
governments around the world. It is not a vulgar slang so much as a
political reference toward communism. For decades prior to the fall of
communism the Russians were also referred to as "Reds".
