Its definitely not perfect but that does not mean that one body making decisions for everybody while nobody is allowed to criticise the said hallowed body is not the way of free people.
Everyone has a say, and everyone decides the direction together?
Dear CCP representative, Welcome to Democracy 101.
No, Democracy doesn't mean that "everyone decides the direction together". Representative Democracy means that everyone gets to choose their representative. It is also not just about the election procedure but also about having a free press and giving people the right to criticize those who govern them. I understand the concept is alien to you.
No, there will never be a consensus, there will always be stupid people who cast their stupid votes.
"Stupid people who cast their stupid votes". So typical of the CCP apologists. Equal rights to everyone means that everyone's vote counts. You may find it stupid because you have been accustomed to a communist system of hierarchy where speaking truth to power to akin to suicide.
So my dear, “free-thinking puppet”, can you still live under your caste system??
LOL. So you went into my post history to come up with a retort quoting "caste system". If there was any doubt in my mind that the forum is being specifically targeted by Chinese handlers, this removes that doubt. I have seen the likes of you a lot on Twitter. You guys crawl out of your Weibo holes to global twitter whenever there is an image management issue for the CCP.
Wonder though, what are your masters finding so interesting about the forum as to direct attention here.
It is really ridiculous to see that many people still judge the present China based on the backward history of the old China. The people of their own country worry about being shot and women being raped every day, but now they are worried that the Chinese will eat too much and live too happily. Guys, China is no longer the China you imagined. If you have travel expenses, go to China. China will let you sit up and take notice.
Go out and see the reality of China with your own eyes, instead of hearing hearsay on the Internet.
Why do you guys think that people judge China based on their history?? The rest of the world knows that the Chinese control the flow of information inside their country. They judge people based on their posting habits. Prominent businessmen are jailed and go missing on the pretext of "picking quarrels" if they dare criticize.
Amid all this, people in the free world also notice that the Chinese economy has gone full steam ahead (which is appreciable) but on an unfair advantage of exploiting cheap labor and stealing/ copying others IP. Huawei cannibalizing Canada's Nortel is a prime example. All of this happened because the West was too busy getting cheap manufacturing. Now, the Chinese are trying to portray themselves as some sort of governance example to follow. They are trying to present a picture of success. The ideological funding for communist thought in Australian institutions has been well established.
The people see all this and call out the bullshit by criticizing the Chinese on their slave society. This doesn't mean that we envy the people having a good life. Its good that fellow humans are not dying in famines anymore and enjoying prosperity. Yet, don't expect the rest of the world to suddenly start worshipping communist crap like the CCP or your supreme leader.
