      A disfunctional system isn't the same as a totalitarian one. Both are bad, yes, but they're not one and the same.

        It's funny how when the US does something wrong, it's never a reflection on its essential character, and yet the fucking Four Pests Campaign or whatever is a fundamental reflection of the ideology of Chinese Communism.
