and of course China is lowly rated on the democracy scale



In undergrad I took a course on the USSR and simply didn't attend the lectures I knew would be cringe covering the 30s. The rest of it was really good, no lib stuff. The prof even said the CIA was on the ground during the hungarian revolution. The tests were all essay questions and my passive knowledge as a communist was enough to get an A+ lol
China as an AES state will never get this treatment in the west sadly
it will once we complete the revolution tho
