    Liberals looking at the darkest period in the history of the PRC where people were working in dangerous conditions for a meagre wage for foreign capitalists : free and democratic 🥰

    Liberals looking at the PRC with brand new infrastructure, no extreme poverty, increased wages and consumption, record breaking higher education : Ebil authoritarian 🤬
