Who doesn't have stock markets? Ok, there's a list [1], and Cuba and North Korea are there, but China has several exchanges.
Who doesn't have political yard signs? I'd be surprised if China doesn't have them; they just might not be so varied.

- tightbookkeeper 2y agoYes, the western liberal project led by the US is a worldwide phenomenon, especially after the Cold War, world bank. Etc, But what we’ve seen over the past decades is other countries reexamine what parts are actually good for them. For example Japan has a stock market, and it was a lot like the US in the 80s. But now it looks and operates with nationalist priorities which are very different, > Who doesn't have political yard signs? Anybody really excited about democracy in the US also has to reconcile with marketing. People will literally vote because of a tv commercial. This is not a normal system you will find anywhere else. And it’s pretty obvious to outsiders that US media plays a weird state function in it as well.
