I do not really know much of the world outside america’s dictating media outlets that only serves to induce manufactured fearmongering and hatred for controling it’s citizens thoughts and emotions like the tyrannical oligarch it is. America is practically a monarch that pretends to be either democratic or republic. China can’t be worse than america right?
I’d say not quite as bad, but it’s still pretty bad. Especially if you like freedom, you won’t have much fun there.
On the other side if you like political games, bootlicking and bribary you will have a very good time, not as a foreigner, but if you’re Han Chinese and from a family which is already established in the party it’s quite nice.
