Hey there it is!! “Brutal regime” describes things like the ongoing cultural genocide of indigenous peoples, which itself is a continuation of the brutal mass murder and subjugation of those peoples. A BR (brutal regime) does things like enforce debt against Haiti for having the audacity to free itself from slavery and using the debt to ensure the white financiers who bought those slaves don’t lose any money while simultaneously refusing to engage in any form of reparations. A BR separates children from their parents for an an unbroken multi-century program of violent oppression against non-whites. If you rank every country in the world by the most bombs dropped on it, there’s only one BR that is responsible for the top 3 most bombed countries in the history of the world.

But do go on about how those ebil Chinese are so compliant in approving their government for 15 years at a rate of 95% (just ask Harvard) despite that government being a “brutal regime”. Must be something in their culture, right?

LOL, nothing could be easier to grasp. It is absolutely logically possible for both China and the USA to be brutal regimes. However, it is not empirically true. Try educating yourself instead of screaming nonsense into the void.

Right because the 300 million exploited migrant workers in China are definitely not facing abuse, and minority populations like the Uyghurs have definitely not been called terrorists and put in camps, and LGBT face equal rights, and ultranationalist xenophobic rhetoric totally isn’t commonplace among the CCP, and separatists totally aren’t met with threats of force…
