        I’ll bite, compared to Russia or China, the U.S. is not an authoritarian state.

        Do you think it is?

                yeah, ik and I hate both the us and china, I just can’t stand it when people claim that the us is the worse than china, which isn’t true since in the us you at least get free speach and the right to own a gun
