    “so rare” that no one bothered to get an overview show of this supposedly “rare” protest, yknow? I’m of the opinion that these protests might have a kernel of legitimate complaint, but are highly likely astroturfed as we know many movements like the milk tea alliance were.

    How does it make sense for the CPC to step down??? I’m sure the party is more than able to take in criticism from nonparty members and be responsive (I’m talking about people in China here, because some of the videos I’m seeing on reddit literally have some white people in them lol… Foreign students I take it). This is the same CPC that had something like a 80%+ approval rating, why would they step down???

      It’s more like 95% : “The survey team found that compared to public opinion patterns in the U.S., in China there was very high satisfaction with the central government. In 2016, the last year the survey was conducted, 95.5 percent of respondents were either “relatively satisfied” or “highly satisfied” with Beijing. In contrast to these findings, Gallup reported in January of this year that their latest polling on U.S. citizen satisfaction with the American federal government revealed only 38 percent of respondents were satisfied with the federal government.”
