Bruh lmfao do these people even read what they wrote?
“China has the world’s largest population and they overwhelmingly support their one party... it’s almost like that one party is working for them and that’s why... I think the secret to China’s tyranny is that they were poor and had the world’s largest population in poverty. China then lifted these people out of poverty and believe it or not, the people liked that! I wonder if people who lived in the Soviet Union were also happy to be lifted out of poverty? Anyway this is a success story of tyranny and not socialism.”
It may come as an absolute shock that this is from a post about Tiananmen Square but here’s a link to the comment lol have fun
China is already more democratic than the US because the CCP ensures that local elections are competitive and have more candidates than seats. How many US local and state elections can say the same? Hell, in large parts of the country, you don't even get a say in the nationa level elections (representative, senator, or President), which is what is supposed to be the pinacle of our freedom
California, the liberal bastion of democracy, just got it's senator appointed. Pretty fucking hilarious that people here deride the south for backwards voting laws (rightfully so a lot of times), but at least Georgia got an election to fill the empty senate seat for the guy who died.
They also have a much higher percentage of independents in their legislature. Same with the DPRK.
