Despite the fact that China is one of the world’s most effective democracies – this label from Biden is bad for international relations and peace. The Cold War is in full effect, and it heating up to armed conflict is seeming more likely over the next decade.

The same imbeciles who think China is a dictatorship think that US is a democracy. 😂

That's just fear mongering.

Also when did china become a democracy, yesterday ? China has never been a democracy.

Well, the people get what they want and consider it democratic. So it's better than most countries at being democratic lol.

It's not an insult it's reality.

Your fear mongering is this:

The Cold War is in full effect, and it heating up to armed conflict is seeming more likely over the next decade.
