    Your comment can be wholly ignored by explaining to you that the surveys I refer to are done by western institutions like Pew Research, the University of California or the Ash Center for Democratic Governance (source).

    You, as a westerner, believe your western propaganda that China is an antidemocratic autocracy where people can’t give their political opinions freely. Chinese people simply don’t feel that way as per any serious study, and your opinion can be safely ignored because it’s based on your misunderstandings as a misled westerner.

    What’s the awful everything else? China has consistently some of the highest government satisfaction rates in the world

    As a Spaniard, it’s hard to conceive 90+% of the population being satisfied with the central government, everyone here hates our government and politicians.

    Are you sure you’re speaking for Chinese people when you criticize whatever “everything else” you refer to?

    Why is your model for nuclear Japan? China is the world’s forefront of nuclear energy research and development, keeps expanding its capabilities, and has a clean record with no accidents.

    Regardless, you’re overestimating the damage that nuclear has done in comparison with other energy sources. You could have one Chernobyl per year and you wouldn’t come close to the death toll coal or oil have worldwide. Regarding Fukushima for example, since you brought up Japan: some recent studies suggest that more people have died as a consequence of the upending of their lived by the evacuation of the whole region, than would have died according to realistic statistical models of radiation damage to humans. The main problem is that fossil fuel lobbies have successfully made people completely intolerant of radiation damage while they happily live in cities breathing in NO2 and particulate matter without one complaint.


  • I see you’ve already been corrected by someone who explained you who Stepan Bandera was. I don’t blame you for not digging deeper than the wikipedia article of the song, but I encourage you not to antagonize people with concerns about Nazism and strong opinions about it on the internet.

    As for why the Wikipedia article of a song to Stepan Bandera doesn’t start with a warning about him being Nazi (or have a “Criticism” section at the very least), I hope that also makes you reflect on the bias in Wikipedia when discussing topics with geopolitical implications.

    Stepan Bandera is a well known figure that has been discussed heavily since the beginning of the war, and his rehabilitation as a “Ukrainian patriot” completely whitewashing Nazism is extremely concerning to socialists like me, and even to non-socialists in neighboring countries like Poland.
