    Yes China is authoritarian. People actually respect authority figures and trust them. Innovation is based on merit and benefit to society rather than accumulating private capital. The future must be authoritarian.

    In the West there is no authoritarianism. It is the jungle where the strong eat the weak and authority is replaced with cheap goods and fear.

        Which in other words is like obeying line goes up, full death cult society.

        We “tankies” should just reclaim the word authoritarianism for ourselves and use it to describe anyone who resists capital.
