The US has 4% of the world population, but >20% of the worlds prisoners. The US has admitted to torturing and detaining people indefinitely without charges, and admitted it runs secret CIA black sites where people are kidnapped and tortured abroad…
But le epic bacon marvel movies always show the USA saving the world, so they must be good right?
Are we the baddies?
You should ask Chinese citizens how they feel about their own government and how they are treated… Oh wait, Harvard University did that and found 93% of people were satisfied with their government
It is literally official US policy that Taiwan is an island that is a part of China.
I found a really great reading list for more in depth perspectives on Tianamen Square Like everything, wikipedia comes with its own bias and is generally not comprehensive when it comes to understanding a subject.
So in China the CPC forces companies to have CPC members in their leadership, but in the USA companies bribe and coerce our leaders to do whatever they want. The US government allows companies in the US surveil everyone and everything with great intensity, and in return all of them will turn over that information to the government anyway… So companies in both countries partake in surveillance on people, but the CPC imposes oversight onto the company while US companies impose oversight onto the government. (or more accurately, businesses and the government work together to the benefit of business)
idk, if we had a state run by a communist party, it would be pretty cool if they forced workers on to the board of Exon, Norfolk Southern, or Raytheon etc
