This doesn’t stop people from letting Gemini control their political opinion.

But Google making Gemini not able to talk about progressivism definitely makes sure those political opinions won’t be progressive.

Name an internet browser that costs money

Ok live in your fantasy world where the CCP public policy doesn’t say that.

I’m sorry but a dictator for life is a dealbreaker.

I’ll admit that a truly dedicated and benevolent dictator could run a good society, there are a few examples in the past too.

But it’s going to collapse once daddy dies like every dictatorship.

If you talk bad about the dictator they take away your right to buy train and airline tickets to escape the country.

This is real policy.

There are repercussions for saying you want free and fair elections, that is unacceptable

If you can take the Chinese Government for their word. Which I can’t

It’s history at this point

You shouldn’t argue in favor of an ethnostate for any reason, it’s cringe

Nothing is real if you don’t want to engage with it.

Sorry this makes you uncomfortable

Cool, I didn’t even say Han and yet you knew what I meant.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Han_Chinese#:~:text=The Han Chinese%2C alternatively the,75%25 of the country’s population.

The Han Chinese represent 91.11% of the population in China

There are long running documented campaigns of cultural erasure of China’s minority groups. It’s no shocker that a country with billions of people they would use ethnic clensing to maintain social stability.

By that definition there are no socialist countries.

When people talk about socialism in the real world it doesn’t mean owning the means of production

Currently they are protected by unions, that’s why they are trying to force return to office and offer fake buyouts

It’s a way to thin out staff when you can’t legally fire people

For more than just monitary gain?

Maybe the value of things shouldn’t be measured witha dollar sign if we want to evolve past a warhungry feudal society

You’re literally describing how US companies turn a profit.

Cool.

I’m glad their lives aren’t hell under their fascist regime.

Most of the time when a country tries to make an ethnostate the main race get to live pretty good lives.

Doublethink is cringe.

Stop with the mental gymnastics before you pull a muscle

We don’t have to imagine because they do that already.

You’re interacting with the ones who are still allowed internet access.

You’re the one forming an emotional response to every bad news article.

You can be informed and collected. But it does require some compartmentalization

So if you post on social media “I think Dictator Xi should be removed from office and we should have real elections again” nothing will happen?

I feel like something happens if you post that in China that you don’t want to talk about.

China has become a psudo Capitalist country in its quest for world domination.

Capitalism goes hand in hand with right wing extremism

I think China would have to do a lot more for the avg person before they could be considered socialist or communist again
