    Really? So Chinese citizens can go out and publish an article about why they believe Xi Jinping is actually betraying socialist ideals?

      We have a few Chinese folks in the revolupedia discord so they definitely exist. We’re pretty aggressively against modern China.

      From what I’ve seen on Chinese social media, you have two kinda minds. The folks who want a return to maoism, and the folks that are more liberal minded. That’s extremely reductive but that seems to be a sentiment repeated frequently by Chinese people so it’s likely got some truth to it.

      I don’t uphold China, but I do think ~95% of what people have said in defense of China on this post is true. There’s lot of propaganda that paints China as monstrously worse than it is.

      Some have. They’d be wrong, so it’s not super common, but it’s possible, assuming they aren’t a wealthy capitalist or something.
