    Also, China is spiraling increasingly towards a fascist regime as well. Their “communist” party is communist in nothing but name.

    You can* be communist alongside being authoritarian without necessarily being fascist. What makes you say they’re spiralling towards that?

      Increasing nationalism, ethnic cleansing. Also privately owned corporations.

        Yeah fair, the privately-owned corporations is definitely counter to communist ideology. I think the ethnic cleansing has always been around in a sense. Religion has been suppressed, as has languages other than mandarin, like cantonese.
