    Why can’t people just be more fair to an authoritarian regime that’s actively crushing democracy?

    To all the tankies, China is fascist now. They aren’t redistributing wealth from billionaires to the people, they’re welcoming billionaires into their party with open arms. Not exactly the standard bearer for your glorious tankie revolution LOL.

      Well, they have demonstrably increased the quality of a life of over a billion people under Dengism.

      …

      And they’re doing a little genocide. Well, objectively a lot of genocide.

      Like, a lot a lot. Of ethnic and religious minorities. Plus, they come off as a bit nationalistic.

      Maybe we should come up with a new term for them?

      Some kind of social nationalists?
