I have something called deductive reasoning. I know it's foreign to you because it's a lot of big words and it sounds like telepathy, but I promise it's a real thing.

China has plenty of freedoms, but what you're advocating for is a lawless anarchist society which often devolves into rule by the capitalist class anyways. More importantly, I think it's really stupid to completely ignore every leftist accomplishment that China has made and the fact that they've gotten closer than any country in history to becoming a real socialist society. But no, they're class traitors for some reason because they arrest people that break laws. How evil it is to have law enforcement.

You had nothing to deduce anything from. Hell you haven't even looked at my post history here.

China lacks most of the freedoms most of the world has.

China has a stock market which is really hard to have if the workers are being paid the full value of their labor. China isn't the closest any nation has come to socialism in its current state because it has moved into a state capitalist economy with billionaires. How is that socialist? It isn't. It's still very authoritarian.

Every one of my friends who's visited Mainland China has been struck by just how hypercapitalist it is
