I’m tired of being surrounded by propaganda. Do better.
Everything you consume is propaganda and has an agenda, you just see this as propaganda because it counters the propaganda that's already internalized and invisible to you

Lotta comments from accounts a few days old, or with less than 50 comments in several years. Interesting.

Waiting for Liberals to actually have a thought out response to the excellent resources the MLs of this community provide.

I'm so tired
Ngl, the fact that the US lied about masks and had such a clusterfuck response while China listened to the science was a major step in me becoming China-pilled.
They can both be bad.
They aren't, though. China is a rising socialist state, and the US is a dying, brutal empire run be pedophiles and fascists.

Democracy is only as good as the voters. The average Chinese is better educated and a better citizen overall than the average USAmerican. Thus the difference in results.
Also bourgeois/liberal democracy is the quintessence of adopting democratic aesthetics, forms, and language without any actual democratic function. No one can vote according to their interests, and no one's votes actually influence policy.
The reason most modern imperialist states have evolved their own form of liberal democracy is because of how effective it is at mediating domestic capitalist contradictions so they can be externalized.
If the US were somehow a true functional democracy it would have evolved beyond capitalism decades ago.
