Despite the fact that China is one of the world’s most effective democracies – this label from Biden is bad for international relations and peace. The Cold War is in full effect, and it heating up to armed conflict is seeming more likely over the next decade.
Despite the fact that China is one of the world’s most effective democracies –
What. The. Fuck?!?!?!
How is a 1 party regime where the current ruler has already broken his term limit to illegally keep power indefinitely, and the party in power decides who is allowed to run, a democracy?
Oh wait, this is just changing words so war is peace, freedom is slavery again.
I mean, yeah, the US is a fascist regime which literally inspired Nazi Germany, the only difference is that Germany fell and the US remained to stay alive.
No… Xi was a member of the CPC in his village since young, elections are taken place at different levels, from towns to municipalities and so on, until you get to the National People’s Congress where there members elect a president.
For the first level, the NPC elects the head of State and the heads of the judicial organs, i.e., the President of the State, the President of the Supreme People’s Court, the Procurator-General of the Supreme People’s Procuratorate and the Director of the National Supervisory Commission, and, upon nomination by the President, decide on the leaders of the central administrative organs, namely, the Premier of the State Council. (Article 62 of the Constitution)
For the second level, the people’s congresses of provinces shall elect the heads of the administrative and judicial organs at the provincial level, namely, the governors of the provinces or municipalities directly under the Central Government, presidents of high people’s courts, chief procurators of the procuratorates at the provincial level and directors of the supervision committees at the same level. (Articles 8 and 44 of Local Organization Law)
For the third level, the municipal people’s congress shall elect the leaders of the municipal organs, institutions, and judicial organs, namely the mayor, presidents of intermediate people’s courts, chief procurators of the municipal procuratorate, and directors of the supervisory committee at the same level.
For the fourth level, the people’s congresses of districts and counties shall elect the responsible persons of administrative organs and judicial organs at the district/county level, namely, the heads of the district/county, presidents of primary people’s courts, chief procurators of procuratorates at the district/county level, and directors of supervisory committees at the same level.
For the fifth level, the people’s congress of townships and towns shall elect the heads of the administrative organs and institution at the same levels, namely, the heads of townships/towns. There are no judicial organs in towns and townships, only agencies dispatched by judicial organs at the district/county level.
Just because you don’t know what terms mean doesn’t mean the person you’re interacting with is a troll. Socialist, especially in this context, has a lot more to do with the economic order. That’s why socialist democracy is not an oxymoron, nor is capitalist-autocracy for example. Dictator-democracy is not even similar, because you’re abutting two governmental structure systems, not one governmental structure system with one economic system. Dictator-democracy and Capitalist-Communism both don’t make sense as terms. Socialist democracy absolutely does.
If you want to argue the veracity of the claim that they were a socialist democracy or not, go for it. But as it is, you are the one trolling here, either purposefully or just inadvertently due to not understanding what you’re responding to and thus assuming the person you’re responding to is speaking nonsense.

So you start your “rebuttal” with a slight insult, well well, you are right of course, if I do not know something doesn’t mean you are a troll (or the person I responded to) but check out his posts and come back and say you see no trolling.
Hey! I just started to notice your messages around, with comments very critical of the USA with no argumentation whatsoever, that makes you my very first Lemmy troll, congrats :)
I guess you don’t read, because when people engage in discussion I respond with facts. Generally it ends with people like you insulting me, with some racist/classist argument which ends up being banned, or with people not responding or responding fallacies. I could write a wiki about being critical of the US. I am an Argentinian so I know from first hand what it feels to have a fascists installed by the US, and to have a history of debt trap enslavement at the hands of the very same people.
I mean, yeah, he is a dictator. How is this news?

That’s just fear mongering.
Also when did china become a democracy, yesterday ? China has never been a democracy.
Well, the people get what they want and consider it democratic. So it’s better than most countries at being democratic lol.
People who actually live in China disagree with your there champ
I mean, yeah, the US is a fascist regime which literally inspired Nazi Germany, the only difference is that Germany fell and the US remained to stay alive.
So Xi didn’t make himself leader for life? And he doesn’t exert significant control over China’s government?
No… Xi was a member of the CPC in his village since young, elections are taken place at different levels, from towns to municipalities and so on, until you get to the National People’s Congress where there members elect a president.
He exerts as much power as any other president, or less, he can’t do whatever he wants, there are democratic processes involved to take decisions…
Democracy isn’t just elections. The URSS had elections and they were not democratic.
They weren’t a liberal democracy, which is different, they very much were a socialist democracy.
Okay so you really are a troll then lol.
A socialist democracy, what’s next, a dictator-democracy?
Wait, that’s your definition of China!
Looooool
