The US doesn't care about the Chinese people. There's no malice, there's no ill intention, they just don't care beyond the vague 'hope they find democracy someday' schtick. This whole geopolitical shadow war you worry about only exists in your adolescent head and the heads of your equally juvenile comrades.

Go outside and try to be a contributing member of society. Maybe even meet a girl. Or a guy, if that's your thing.

I didn't dignify the juvenile barb with a response. Take it how you like.

The same reason 99.999% (there's a 0.001% margin of error) of North Koreans love the Kims.

A combination of patriotism, indoctrination and fear. Talk to Chinese people sometime. In person, not on WeChat.

The only people that praise communism are those that never lived through it.

If that's your takeaway, you haven't.

I know it because my mother lived through it. But go off, I guess, comrade.

No. They do not.

Yeah, it was a real cultural revolution for China. A great leap forward even.

I'm not reading a pop politics book for you. Go read The Gulag Archipelago.

Corrupt politicians purging enemies is not the win you think it is there, chief.
