Which is why you should support China, as a recent Harvard Kennedy School survey found that over 93% of the Chinese people are satisfied with their central government.

Facts don't care about your feelings
ok so the material conditions are: massive wage growth and severe poverty has almost been eliminated while being the only country with extensive high speed rail.
considering the fact that 100 years ago china was being pillaged by warlords, civil war, the japanese, global imperialism, and had a similar development index to africa, they're doing quite good for themselves.
Then why not support them base off of that rather than one statistic that by itself tells us absolutely nothing.
This isn't an effort post where I'm trying to compile every possible reason for why you should support China. It's just an easy counter to the prevailing perception of China within the West (and among many western leftists) that China is a hellstate where everybody lives in daily fear of their repressive government.
I'm mostly making fun of the tendency of liberals to respond to any solidarity of Communists in the Global North with the Global South by saying "Oh, only privileged white leftists could possibly support the evil Maduoro/Xi/Morales/etc. regime, the real people of those countries YEARN to be free".
And it's wrong to say that public approval in their government tells us nothing, propaganda exists, but it can't make people not recognize if their lives are shit, and staying shit. After all the U.S has the most sophisticated propaganda structure, and yet public faith in Government is consistently low, and most Americans surveyed have little hope in the future.

its why i support them, idk about op. my opinion is that china had the best possible outcome they could get due to all the fucked shit that got forced upon them. all the other options are very bad for who else could be ruling china.
Great point, the literacy acquisition and retention is amazing as well as the afforeststion of the Loess Plateau. Many great achievements!
