    Chinese infrastructure developing is truly impressive. I guess that’s one benefit of being in an imperial dictatorship.

        Not just this one. But I think you are overestimating such improvements over strategic ones that the US is still doing more. Say, Starlink really turning into some sort of planetary cell network.

      They are ostensibly a one party state, not a dictatorship. While Xi is the paramount leader, he claims he isn’t a dictator and I definitely believe him. Also it seems like he doesn’t have absolute control, but what do I know.

        This sentence feels so Soviet.

          Yeah, hate that the world views him as not a dictator, at least formally, but I don’t make the rules.

        What do you think would happen if he started doing things the people able to recall him didn’t like?
