    China does something akin to this, too:

    The fact is that these authoritarian states don’t want the possibility of any cultural mingling between societies, each has to be as alien as the other for the bubbles of ideology to sustain themselves. That makes it easy to vilify the other.

    I see that you can’t really prove its false, it just seems strange to you so it must not be true.

      I didn’t say china is better at all. And china cracks down on christmas festivals due to state atheism as i’ve said in another comment, not because it’s “western”.

          America is the only major player that still has an olympus problem. Swearing fealty to the gods should not increase your chance of being elected - but it does in the wild west. We’re all tired of the US being a clown country, no need to point externally when there’s this many problems in the states. This post would go over great on reddit.

          Also, your username is pretty close to just outright being a nazi dogwhistle. Maybe delete your account and try again.
