      I think it would be way better to prevent abuse of power in the first place

      I’m almost positive they work hard at doing that too. I personally don’t support the death penalty either, but I find it very hard to sympathize with this person.

        I think they’re saying that by supposedly decentralizing power, you can prevent abuse of power entirely in the first place.

          This is a good example what i dislike about china and why i consider it to be authoritarian.

          That’s a common liberal talking point, if you’re not aware, comrade.

            Yes, but the PRC is authoritarian and we like this fact because it’s often wielded in favour of proletarian interests. It is a left idealist disagreement if anything and it’s not even anything close to the venom you’ll find in places like r/completeanarchy.

              Yes. The fact that this liberal dislikes it shows they’re not in favor of proletarian interests. Besides, it’s not the first time this user has spread some shitty liberal views on China.
