Where @Draegur@lemmy.zip gets harassed for this comment:

wow, a lot of the propaganda I’ve had shoveled down my gullet all along has just been straight up false, hasn’t it. China was never the ‘bad guy’…

@starik@lemmy.zip replies

Better in every metric? Try being Chinese and criticizing the government online, and see what happens to you. That’s a pretty scary metric. The US is fucked right now, but at least there is hope in a democracy, while it lasts. If we ever become a full on totalitarian dystopia like China, it’s over. It makes me sad to think that, with modern surveillance technology, there is probably no way for them to dig themselves out of it at this point.

Of course, the most meaningful metric of determining whether a country is democratic is if you can call the head of state a doodoo head (which I'm sure people in China are doing regardless)

it must be the best we have otherwise why would we still be quoting the same reagan speech
