    Its called self preservation. Success isn’t “not garunteed”, its almost garunteed to not happen. Its a practically insurmountable task.

    That’s how you justify benefiting from the regime and your implicit support for it.

    I didn’t even consider overthrowing them as an option because of how ridiculous of an idea that is.

    Claiming that mass movements are a ridiculous idea is a historically illiterate position to take. The only reason you take this position is because you’re not personally affected by all the suffering caused both domestically and abroad by what your regime does. One day you may find yourself affected as well as you country continues to implode politically and economically, and by then it will be too late to take any meaningful action. You deserve what’s coming to you.

    I am aware its not literally impossible, maybe I should have made that more clear. But information is far more controlled there than it is here. Why would I guzzle propaganda from something I openly admit is an authoritarian regime? I think China sucks because China sucks, I don’t need propaganda to tell me that.

    You think China sucks because of the information you consume that tells you that China sucks. Again, have you been to China, do you speak the language, do you talk to people who live in China. If the answer to these questions is no, then what precisely is your claim that China sucks based on, the garbage you read in western media about China?

    I do not care what the literal translation is, that’s not how you translate things.

    Yeah, actually that’s exactly how you translate things. You take the official translation made by the government of China instead of making one up yourself. The fact that you would even argue this point is frankly surreal. You very much are exposing yourself as a chauvinist both by using the made up name that your regime gave the party and claiming that China sucks without any actual knowledge of China. You’re a chauvinist.
