    Idk I still believe real Socialism doesn’t automatically lead to authoritarianism.

    I believe it'll get called authoritarianism, regardless of how it manifests. Guys at his level are just allowed to rob you. If you complain about it, that's fine. But you're not allowed to actually do anything.

    like if they vote to send the bourgeoisie to labor camps that’s democracy baby

    That's a Kangaroo Court and a Lynch Mob. Are you with Atticus Finch or are you with the Terrorists?

    If China was really serious about this communism thing they would welcome in the proletariat Tibetans and Uyghurs .

    What makes you think they haven't? They're attempting to integrate these communities with Mandarian language based education, they're extending infrastructure westward to allow for more expedient travel and trade, and they're expanding anti-poverty initiatives to improve quality of life.

    Quite a bit of this reactionary "China is throwing everyone in prisons!" shit is a direct response to a new cultural crusade out of Beijing intended to more firmly unify the nation.
