The last death throes of institutionalized fascism.

I hope.

Death throes? What are you talking about? We're in the beginning of Fascism 2.0. Everything we're experiencing is mirroring the rise of Nazi Germany, Japan, and Italy. Except this time it's America, Russia, and China.

Its weird to include China in that list, especially when Japan never de-nazified, and Germany is getting ready to re-nazify.

Ask the Tibetans, Uighurs, Hong Kongers, and Taiwanese how they feel.

But maybe don't do the first three, because you're likely putting them in a position between risking their own safety and lying.

Haven't met any Tibetans, but I talk politics with Hong Kongers somewhat regularly, both in and outside China, and Uhigurs both in Xinjiang and Kazakhstan, last time I was there and the time before that. Of course if you think the Chinese government controls Kazakhstan, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Japan, IDK what to tell you.

Last Taiwanese person I met we only talked about green tea, and they seemed really defensive about it so it didn't seem like talking about politics was a good idea.
