    very oppressive and paranoid, bit definitely not fascist.

    That is … an interesting take, especially taking the Uyghur genocide into account.

      Fascism is far-right. China is sort-of Communist, which is far-left.

      Thus China is not fascist. Still a brutal, oppressive borderline-genocidal regime, but not fascist.

        China is authoritarian, and that’s sort of the problem. That’s why the US is bad, bozo. But, sure, why don’t we point out all the definitely not capitalism that China is doing so you can pretend that all those Uyghurs aren’t being genocided, nor that the AI surveillance state they’ve got going on to censor and disappear people. Damn, dude, I’m glad I can pick between these two shitty governments.
