Makes one think: if I’m going to deal with the same level (or worse) of authoritarianism as China, I might as well at least get the lower cost of living and better ability to be car-free that China has.
/this is rhetorical, not actually considering a relocation to China

You’d be surprised how many of these “bad things in China” are US propaganda. I guess those millions spent on misinformation are paying off.

I think the limit for me was the articles about forced repatriation, where China had snatch squads sent into other countries to force people to return, even when they had broken no laws recognized by that country. Oh, and the Uyghur genocides, which multiple global newspapers have reported on.
I will accept “US Bad”. These days, any claim of a large empire being perfect should be treated with massive suspicion.
