  1. Nobody believes Russia is a Utopia.

  2. Nobody believes the PRC is perfect, but on the right track, and especially nice in Tier 1 and 2 cities.

  3. The CPC has over 90% support, the fact that China has a government does not mean that is "evil."

90% support makes the whole thing more suspicious to me than anything.

I'm sure a lot of the policy that the CCP has put forward are great, especially if compared to the US counterparts, but that doesn't justify violence and oppression.

True democracy is when a president has a 37% approval rating.

Alright I'm just joshing with you, but since you're an anarchist you do agree with me on the following, right?

  • The Western hegemony is dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. It suppresses voices that dissent from neoliberal dogmas and the military brinkmanship of NATO. It often violently clamps down grassroots movements like BLM or the Free Palestine protests. The Western parliaments consist of different flavours of neoliberalism, neoconservatism and fascism, and not a real representation of an actual "marketplace of ideas", just a theatre of so-called politics.

unironically funny lmao.

Yes I do agree with you.
