    To keep it short, I agree, I just dont like to see people trying to trick teenagers on here that China isnt worse than the west is right now.

      I’m not trying to trick anyone into anything. I’m just following the facts, and the fact is that the western civilization is not too far from becoming China.

      I guess we’re of the same mind. China, barring China, Russia and any other openly authoritarian country, are the worst right now. Now, the ‘democratic’ countries some (most?) of us live in right now are quickly approaching the same levels of constraint and subjection of those same countries we so regularly call out for the exact same behavior of their governments.
