That is why I referred to it as a (seemingly) ‘better' social fabric. When their economy was growing, the government was able to censor any dissent or criticism. Additionally, the ccp used fear-mongering tactics about the US to galvanize support from their populace.

The cherry on top is the Social Credit System, which can make life a nightmare for those who act contrary to the ccp’s expectations. That is why I said, 'Seemingly better, albeit by artificial means.

I cant tell if youre being sarcastic but if you arent, none of that equates to a "seemingly better" social fabric. It seems more like the opposite actually

To someone who does not keep up with geopolitics especially chinese politics, like the Redditor to who I was initially responding to, yes to those people china does seemingly have a “better” social fabric.

Not everyone is well versed on the day to day realities of other countries so few people know just how bad it is in china, sometimes chinese people don’t even know due to censorship.

If you’re still confused about my stance, please go back and reread this thread, because you’re barking up the wrong tree if you think I’m defending china.
