Hi kisscookin, idk what to call you is it alright to call you that? I'm the one who ask you about totalitarian socialism thing btw... so you don't approve it? How abt China right now? They're also kinda.. have the same thing don't you think?

And btw.. I'm not Chinese so don't worry to answer my question if you don't approve it, or if you approve it.. I just want to know what people think abt them..

You can reply in private if you want...

Sorry if I seem to be too obtrusive.. I just.. want someone to talk about deeper things.. like.. my friends are kinda don't really know or don't care abt looking things behind the veil of what usually are known by general masses.. so.. I really want to discuss smt with like minded people..

And also.. I want to be your friend and talk about things.. if you don't mind cause I think you seem to be a nice and well informed person.. hmm. Thankyou.., I hope I hear from you soon! Take care! 💕💕 🍀

hi lovely ♡ actually I'm very happy that you asked me those questions! politics, history and international issues are my cup of tea! I love talking about it and giving everyone random lectures like I'm professor lol (one day I will hehe)

yes, I don't approve totalitarian systems. with authoritative systems.... I don't know, I would argue. but nevertheless I'm big "fan" of democracy.

don't worry, most of my friends also are not interested in such topics. if you want to chat with me more about issues that bother you or interest you, hit me up in DMs!

I've read bunch of books about China, Asian history in XX century, communists, totalitarian systems, especially USSR and Third Reich. also I passed my uni exams with the best grades so I think I possess enough knowledge to answer your question haha 😊

First of all, China is specific and unique in every meaning of this word. even communism there is... not really communism. to discuss China political system, we have to turn back time to overthrowing Qing dynasty, if I'm not wrong. that overthrowing happened in approx. 1920's — at the peak of the bolshevic revolution. bolshevic wanted to take world so badly and expand their sick ideology to every country. they didn't make it on the West side, because Poland stopped them in 1920 — that even is called The Warsaw Battle or The Miracle over the Vistula River in rough translation. the bolshevic started to mix and stir things up on the East side. they started to introduce their ideology step by step in China. that intensified when Joseph Stalin came to power. let's end the thread regarding USSR.

years later, in Chinese revolution (that lasted till 1945), there were two opposing sides. Kuo MinTang (called shortly KMT) and Mao Zedong's partisan army. Mao knew very well that China is indeed super unique country. he deducted that in order to take over China and introduce communism, he has to modify 'original' ideology that was based on Marx and Engels ideas. (btw Marx never worked as worker in factory! Engels was giving money to him and his family lol but Marx still managed to write 1000 pages book about working class. apparently very boring). because at that time China was rather poor, agricultural country, it was impossible to conduct revolution of the prolet. almost no factories as that time. he gained support and power through farmers, peasants, ex soldiers, killers, bandits. the most frustrated and furious group of Chinese people at that time. in big mental shortcut that's how he and his 'staff' came into power. of course KMT lost the battle of China, but its different story.

generally there were some similarities and differences between China People's Republic and rest of communist world back in the day. but differences started appearing more after Mao Zedong's death.

nowadays I would say that China is more authoritative country rather that totalitarian. I know they label themselves as communist country, and there's still only one ruling party, but look at the market — capitalism! stock markets, private property, private businesses, international trade, international investments, etc. everything that I've mentioned defines capitalism! but with the mix of communist party, propaganda, censorship it creates new political system — Chinese system lol but seriously that specific and differential country have to produce specific system, in order to make it work.

even though I 'admire its own uniqueness through diplomat's eyes, its still inhuman political system. free speech right is not followed, Uygur death camps, censorship, inhuman work conditions, air pollution, random rockets in space and more and more.....

I will never approve inhuman, oppressive system, but regarding of Chinese political situation, I don't think it will change in like 50 years. what should happen in order to overthrow ruling party? kinda impossible I guess.....

let me know what you think. feel free to comment I'm curious.
