    This sounds like western chauvinism. Hoe can you be sure?

    And how can you be sure? Given nontransparent smokescreen of all red imperialist countries like USSR, China and North Korea?

    The other was democratically elected

      You call them imperialist without having an understanding of imperialism.

      For example, explain China increasing in manufacturing output as a percent of their economy as they enter and push into the middle income bracket?

      Also, how the hell is the DPRK imperialist? The only place they’ve invaded was a US military dictatorship in the same country that they’re in, while the US dictatorship was slaughtering 10s of thousands of protestors.

      Oh yes, USSR, the famous standard of democracy /s

      Yes. If you can’t explain how the soviet councils were layered and how elections were carried out then don’t pretend like you can argue about this in an informed way.

      China uses a similar system and has a 95 percent approval rate, according to Harvard Surveys.

      *replace it with the gulag system

      This is holocaust trivialization. The gulags were not meant to kill people, and the mortality rate in them reflects this.
