- peoplefromibiza 5y agoor that's how people of China like their country. Some of them are opposing to the regime, but it is possible that the majority of them is pleased for how things are going, also because things have improved a lot for the average Chinese folk over the past couple of decades. For many aspects China is not more totalitarian or violent than many other countries, it can in fact be considered an average country in that regards, where 1.2 billion people live. that's more than US + Europe combined (almost two times that) It is very possible that that's one of the few ways to run such a large country efficiently. Smaller countries like North Korea for example could probably benefit from a liberal democracy and could be run in such a system, but could China? And would Chinese people want it? I think it's an open question.
