China has lashed out at Germany after its foreign minister called Xi Jinping a “dictator” and summoned Berlin’s ambassador for a dressing down, in the latest flaring of tensions with a western democratic power over how the Chinese leader is described overseas.
You got to choose between Hoe Biden and Donald Trump last time. Get back in your box.
Yeah, our elections suck. They should be more open and should be ranked choice. Likewise, the Electoral College is complete bullshit. Even still, Xi is a dictator and China is not a democracy. Multiple things can be true.
Huh? China has elections.
You can choose between voting for wumao Pooh or being kidnapped. Great choice!
Nazi Germany had elections. North Korea has elections. As long as there’s no actual opposition on the ballot, just having elections means nothing.
China is a democracy, the USA isn’t. Xi is the democratically elected leader of his country and enjoys massive popular support. Your past two presidents are hated by the peasantry. You have no understanding of the world because you live in what you think North Korea is like.
Your press is censored, your internet is censored, you have a one party state with no democracy and people die from preventable diseases daily. Homelessness and poverty are rampant. Child slavery and child poverty have skyrocketed under the current regime. America is a shithole, circling the drain and your pathetic racist shit in this thread just exemplifies how little you have to come back with.
How many people voted for him? How many votes did his opponent get?
No idea. I couldn’t even tell you that about my own country or the USA, you know that place that’s totally a democracy where they don’t count all the votes and keep the black people from voting with dirty tricks.
The general population does not vote for the presidency in China, the electors chosen by the CCP do. That is significantly less democratic than the US which is also not a very democratic country when it comes to the presidency.
Neither do americans get to vote for their president nor the germans for their chancellor.
but americans do get to vote for the electoral college, and germans iirc do get to vote for the bundestag
They do and the German chancellor is also not as important as the American president.
Theoretically, the Chinese parliament is also the actual governing body, but with its size and sporadic meetings that’s pretty questionable.
no one tell this guy how bernie got the popular vote but didnt get to run
Okay well then just a simple question: when was the election?
Also no idea. I’m not your Google.
So you claim that China is a democracy based on… having absolutely no knowledge of Chinese politics?
Based on knowing the fact that China is a democracy.
So how can you know they had an actual democratic election?
How does anyone know anywhere had a democratic election? I read it in the news. Who told you China was not a democracy?
Chinese bots are welcome… to burn in a fire
