    China is an authoritarian dictatorship, so if it does anything right that really doesn’t matter.

    Not that the US are better but what a wild stance to just decide to take unprompted

      So all of this about is morality right Every nation is authoritarian by definition, and china is more democratic than USA if you look at the policy the enact.

      China having a different kind of political system than bourgeosie liberal dictatorship doesnt mean the good they do doesnt matter. Thats wholy first world perspective by whites. Fuck liberalism and liberal democracy. Long live DOTP

          China is quite possibly less authoritarian than Western governments. All states have and use authority. Better it’s used for the citizens’ housing, health, food, transportation needs than Elon and Bezos.

          Edit: also while discussing authoritarianism, perhaps check the thread title and read the article. This is what Western authoritianism is for and spends.

            Authoritarianism is when people are allowed to petition the government with their grievances

              Way to deliberately miss the point. The point is ethnonationalism and genocide and apologia/encouragement.
