    Honestly I'm going to start googling increasingly more reasonable sounding policies and see if western media ever calls them anything but "authoritarian".

    Edit: behind Beijing's authoritarian green-yellow-red light system used to determine right of away at an intersection.

      "Reasonable" policies in western countries are "authoritarian" policies in non-western countries, sweaty.

      The Chinese government did an awareness campaign about nutrition a while back and they called it an authoritarian power grab.

          Come to think of it, every lib I know who was in school during the Obama pres blames her for their lunches being bad. I try to explain to them that school lunches were shit before 2008 too, but they don't listen.

            Somewhere around 2004, once a week school lunch was a slice of soggy bread with tomato sauce and cheese on top and a cosmic brownie. That was the lunch we all looked forward to.
