for me its not a open society. Chinese citizen’s don’t live in what Karl popper calls a open society. and although he was a Libertarian he has a good point. a open society is a society where you have freedom of speech meaning you can criticize the government a society where you have the right to assemble and march for political goals. this is important as it allows for minority’s to stand for better treatment by there neighbors. it also allows for society to develop based on a output by the minority resulting in a society where less people suffer.

    I mean yeah it sucks ass they have billionares too but at least they execute one or two occasionally to keep them in line.

    edit: not pro death penalty, just saying there are consequences for billionares in China. not something that can be said for the US.
