    Just because western governments mistreat protesters doesn’t mean executing dissenters is part of democracy.

    Today the people of Taiwan are meeting with representatives from the US government. Chinas response is threatening nuclear war. Perhaps you can explain how deliberation is a part of this process?

      Every government puts limits on dissent. Today, US is violating China’s territorial integrity by sending a top official to Taiwan. US has also spent billions on nurturing a separatist movement in Taiwan. If you think that Taiwan being dominated by US is what democracy looks like what else is there to tell you.

          The most frustrating part of talking to imbeciles such as yourself is that you simply regurgitate nonsense. China has given Taiwan autonomy, and allowed it to have its own government and military. In 2014, China offered Taiwan to have representatives in the mainland government without China having representatives in Taiwanese government.

          At that point US ran a color revolution in Taiwan. Weird that US didn’t want people of Taiwan to deliberate their foreign policy.

            If they’re givin autonomy, why does china insist on controlling who they talk to? That doesn’t sound like autonomy to me!

              Because China cares about its sovereignty. A better question is why US is spending billions of dollars to meddle in politics half way across the world?

                Because China cares about its sovereignty.

                Yup, so much so that it doesn’t allow deliberation, which makes it a fascist dictatorship and not a democracy. The US’s undeniable love for wasting money is sort of irrelevant to the question of democracy in china. Perhaps you can provide an example of deliberation in china?

                  I love how you just keep using the word fascism making it more and more clear that you have no clue what fascism is. Using your definition, lots of western countries are clearly fascist. Spain doesn’t let Catalonia separate. US isn’t letting Puerto Rico and Hawaii separate.

                  I’ve already provided you with an example of deliberation in China when Taiwan was about to choose reunification in 2014. What was US afraid of that it had to run a color revolution to prevent that from happening. Go educate yourself on that instead of spewing nonsense here.
