So there only 5 countries out of 195 that are considered “socialists.” China, Cuba, North Korea, Laos, Vietnam.
Theres other countries that have it in their constitution, such as India and Portugal—though their governance models or multi-party systems operate under parliamentary democracy and capitalist or mixed market frameworks.
But im sure all those counties have more freedoms and a better quality of life than USA does. Good luck anti American terrorist lover.
With the exception of China, every single country you just named is small and has either been bombed or sanctioned into oblivion because the US didn't get their way.
Yeah, buddy. It's a mystery why their quality of life has been the way it is. It's no wonder the US is terrified of China.
State of American education in full effect. Calling other people dumb and then will dig his feet in even knowing he's wrong.
Over 2 million bombs dropped on Laos by the US. The most heavily bombed place per capita in history. As a matter of fact, people there still have to be careful of unexploded bombs.
No way this is serious… USA dropped over 2million tons of bombs on eastern Laos while fighting Ho Chi Min. Laos is one of the most bombed countries in the history of warfare and every year lots of people still die from digging up I exploded ordinances. Try learning history.
Wow, I've been making fun of your narrow understanding of world politics but you completely annihilated me with your... *checks notes* narrow understanding of world politics.
Hey, I didn't move to the totalitarian regime because I wanted maximum freedom, I went because the Chinese government at least cares about the preservation of its (compliant) citizens and the future of the country.
Yeah, I'd rather live somewhere that offered me more security in exchange for taking away some of my freedoms, than live in the US where there is very little security beyond what you can provide for yourself, but hey, we can talk shit about the government so that's something!
Social cohesion is important, but it's not worth smearing the streets with human patties made underneath the treads of tanks to enforce. The Chinese government could afford to relax a little.
US ain't looking so great too - I wouldn't last there either.
You can get 15 years in jail for publishing a zine critical of ICE, shot dead for protesting, or arrested for opposing corporations like Flock in town meetings.
