Re: authoritarianism— your opinion. Some of us aren't in favour of oppressive regimes that aren't transparent, surveil, and censor.

I am a Chinese minority living in China. You really don't know what you're talking about when it comes to China. You very clearly have done 0 research beyond maybe reading RFA. You should be quiet until you have done some proper research.

Ad hominem, ad hominem, and mmm, ad hominem. Yeah, nothing to see here.

It isn't an ad hominem fallacy to point out that doing little research on a topic and repeating easily disproven talking points isn't a sound basis of argument.

And I have, and my responses were given little in return from them.

You have not, considering everything you've said has been easily debunked, and when encountering hard numbers you reflect to dogmatism.

Dogmatism? And what about you?

Dialectical materialism. I look at material reality, analyze it within context and as it changes over time, where it came from and where it's headed. I am certainly confident in my research, as I've done extensive reading on the subject. Your rejection of facts is what points at dogmatism.
