    The method of voting isn’t what makes it real democracy it’s the class content of the state and the fact that voting is a ritual for representatives that will only ever serve capital as opposed to voting being a single part of a daily system of feedback and interaction with deputies embedded in the grassroots situation who need accomplishments (to solve our problems) to go for higher offices. There’s a reason the number of billionaires in China is shrinking while public services and social safety nets are constantly seeing investment while in Europe and America austerity for the masses and tax cuts for the rich is law.

    End to end encrypted

    Nice vibes based analysis sort of redundant when they have backdoors on every piece of technology deployed there or the fact that most end to end encrypted messages are some mix of lying and insecure like WhatsApp.

      I use signal and I’m free to. I’m confident it’s secure. Confident enough that my wife can send me a titty pic without someone looking at it. I would not do that with WeChat.

      You call out a straw man about it being back doored when you’ve no idea that’s the case but we’re certain it is in China.

      You go ahead and try to create an end to end encrypted messaging platform there and see what happens.

      Hell… use pgp in your WeChat. See what happens.

        I hate to break it to you but if the government want to see that titty pic if it’s on either of your phones or any other device they can and likely have.

        Again remember snowden? If you live in the western hemisphere the US and Israeli intelligence apparatus owns all of your tech that’s the unfortunate truth you need to reckon with.

          If we work off the assumption that signal is secure then not without a court order where I live.

          Not quite the same in China.

          Edit: Awwww. The mods are removing my posts now. Bless their fragile hearts.

          Since that’s happening I’m out now. It’s been an interesting discussion though I fundamentally disagree that surveillance there is the same as everywhere else. I’ve made my points. Catch you again o/

                It’s clearly true you are just stating things that are untrue but you feel must be because you are a chauvinist. And you are an idiot as you look past the very clearly documented history of the EuroAmerikan surveillance apparatus and pretend it’s not real and if it is real it’s bound by your laws etc etc. Hence you are a chauvinist and an idiot.

                    Fallacy fallacy. So epic owned. Fucking loser Reddit debate bro. Genuinely impressively arrogant while being so uninformed and apparently genuinely unintelligent.

            Yes the EuroAmerican intelligence apparatus famous for obeying court orders and never being outed by whistleblowers for running massive illegal spying and data harvesting operations. Are you trolling?
