Okay I misread about the 80% figure. It’s more about 50%.
Be careful next time
It’s their industry that they want to shine in.
That is normal. USA does it too, don’t you think?
“Singapore does it”, my boss worked there and told me this week multiple times that Singaporeans are the most selfish ego centered people he has ever met. My wife grew up in Bintan, and she agrees. They are basically the Americans of south east Asia.
Why are you talking about your boss and your wife? We’re talking about Singapore which also heavily control their population
The subsidies are trickle down economics, heavily criticised by socialists.
Source?
Although income inequality is dropping in china. 0,35 Gini. In USA it’s 0,41. But here in the EU, it’s 0,29.
And you’re allowed to do it because we allow opposition.
That’s democracy.
It’s absolutely crazy how brainwashed westerners are to believe that Democracy is when the people can’t control policy, but they’re allowed to importantly post criticism of it online.
Monday there’s a strike against government policy. I won’t join because I’m pro government policy.
We do somewhat control policy by voting. The greens for example reduced nuclear energy. So they lost many votes. Now we are funding nuclear energy again.
If the greens were authoritarians. Then we would only hear how great it is to be without nuclear energy. Only hear the positive sides of it. Opposition silenced.
Then we wouldn’t be able to impact policy on the next election, as there would be propaganda.
How else do you want to achieve democracy? Mr definitely not brainwashed

Socialism is more than income
And thanks for links
When I say that china is just another capitalist nation, then your whataboutism to other capitalist nations does not defend china.
It proves my point.
China heavily guides public opinion, there’s no opposition allowed.
And you are a mouthpiece for the Chinese government.
And you’re allowed to do it because we allow opposition.
That’s democracy.

Impotently?
Yeah, dang autocorrect

I am not interested in defending China. I want you to know that West is not holy
It is good then. Many oppositions only care about themselves
So the opposition, ml instance, only cares about themselves and thus should be heavily censored?
I thought we were here on Lemmy so that we could choose what content we see and which content we want to upload.
I said “many oppositions only care about themselves” not “all oppositions only care about themselves”
Ah yes, only the opposition that you belong to 😁
How convenient
Yes, it’s convenient. I don’t have to worry about ethno-nationalists, and chauvinists
I find people that silence the opposition disgusting weak-spine fucks.
But that’s just me
You are European. USA will not interfere with your liberal democracy
