      The opposite is true, actually.

      According to the most recent report (2024), people in China have overwhelmingly positive views of their political system. 92% of people say that democracy is important to them, 79% say that their country is democratic, 91% say that the government serves the interests of most people (rather than a small group), and 85% say all people have equal rights before the law. Furthermore, China outperforms the US and most European countries on these indicators – in fact, it has some of the strongest results in the world. The figure below compares China’s results to those from the US, France and Britain. These results may help explain the high levels of satisfaction with government reported by the Ash Center.

      The irony of having my comment on democracy and free speech removed is hillarious.

        Should all misinformation be allowed to stay? Should right-wing, western narratives be unchallenged? No investigation, no right to speak.

          Can’t have an honest discussion when you silence critics. (Which was the point all along)

            Do you often start discussions by loudly proclaiming that you haven’t done any research but fully agree with the right-wing?

              Welcome to my ban list! It’s small and very exclusive, but disingenuous comments putting words in my mouth like “but fully agree with the right wing” are a surefire way to get you on it.

                You came in here repeating right-wing talking points. I didn’t put any words in your mouth, you said them yourself.

      Yes, the PRC is the leader in electrification of production and renewable expansion. It’s at the pinnacle of nuclear and solar energy, as well as production of these.
