There is a difference between standing for your core values and defending them vs crushing civil liberties and fucking up minorities. I would be very much china-friendly if they weren't so heavy on the censorship - both wiping out a lot of local cultures and suppressing critics, at home and especially abroad - and less biased towards the Han-Chinese population, and to be honest, I don't think the CCP actually needs those points to keep their power., these are self-serving actions to make sure that only themselves and noone else gets a say, like another communistic party that might do things different. Those points are a no-go for me, so i cannot be pro China.
Russia is not communist, not in the slightest. It's the embodiment of feudalistic hypercapitalism - no worker has had any power in Russia for a long time. Wars of Aggression aren't in the interest of the populace either - and it's not their first - especially when it involves staggering losses that are only second to WW2.
I also didn't say anything about GETTING power. I do not like the thought of violent uprisings, but i acknowledge that it might be needed for a change like that.
