Authoritarian capitalistic state?
For all the tankies disagreeing simply ask yourself two questions:
Who owns the means of production in a socialist society?
Who owns the means of production in China?
Everything else follows from there
Good luck trying to state the obvious here, lots of tankies on lemmy.ml (as you can see from the other replies)
QinShiHuangsShlongA tankie is when people point out you don’t understand what you’re talking about and are just regurgitating talking points and it makes you feel bad.
Come to China I can give you a tour I can translate so you can talk to the locals and you can see we’re humans too not just some brainwashed peasant “untermensch”. You chauvinist loser.
When did I say chinese people arent people? Are you replying to the wrong comment? You sound like you are 14 with your reading skills and going straight to insults.
You are a loser. You don’t view us as independent people who have our own views on our country. You ignore the fact that even western outlets report over 80% of us support the government. But none of that matters to you because we’re just peasants brainwashed by the evil “authoritarians”.
Does lemmy.ml include entirety of China? Because I was only talking about lemmy.ml. Again, you sure you replied to the right comment?
You are defending and agreeing with someone calling China evil and authoritarian capitalist. He is wrong and so are you. No amount of dodging or hiding behind semantics will change the position you chose to defend and that you clearly chose to defend it for chauvinist reasons.
You said I didnt see Chinese people as people, which I never said ever. Are you gonna retract that? Cause you are still wrong.
No because even if you don’t state it openly it’s clearly apparent. You clearly hate China, and we’re all just brainwashed serfs of the ebil gubberment.
Ah okay, so the fabrications of your mind and you prejudice against me are relevant and valid point for you to criticize me. The irony of your comment isnt lost on me
The “fabrications” of you siding with someone calling China evil. China is directed by the people. Reconcile how you don’t hate Chinese people for me.
The government does not represent the people, a country can be evil without its people being evil. Example: the US
Over 80% of us support the government. Are we all brainwashed or are we all evil?
Cowbee [he/they]Harvard, among many others. Read what’s been linked.
It wasnt linked. Okay, lets see how the research was conducted “and together with a leading private research and polling company in China” so the questioning wasnt done by havard but this private company that isnt named. It is also only 3000 interviewees, which isnt statistically relevant in a country of over 1 billion people. Even the study found discrepancies between people in the major cities and the country side.
The goal of this research brief, and of the longitudinal survey that informs it, is to address the question of gov- ernment legitimacy in China using the most objective and quantitative methods currently available. Our sur- vey1 contains data from eight separate waves between 2003 and 2016, and records face-to-face interview responses from more than 31,000 individuals in both urban and rural settings. As such, it represents the lon- gest-running independent effort to track citizen ap- proval with all four levels of the Chinese government across time (ranging from the township, to the county, to the provincial, and finally to the central government).
The sample size was over 10 times what you claimed, and it was absolutely statistically relevant. Here’s a neat link on sample sizes, 31,000 is more than plenty. There indeed were discrepancies between the urban and rural, that’s because historically rural areas have been slower to develop than urban areas, and now rural areas are made a priority to close the gap.
The study itself says 31,000. Go to the study itself if you want firm understanding. You also lied about not having any information on how it was gathered, it was also linked. Here’s the full PDF.

Oof, my bad, thought I saw 300 pages and didn’t check before I sent. I’m riled up a bit. Thank you!
