I'll wait for some proof. Until then we can keep celebrating the victories of the world's largest democracy.
But US supreme leaders have never been ones to tell the truth nor back it up.

I mean, yeah, he is a dictator. How is this news?
I understand it to be geopolitically significant. Biden, head of state for a big country. Xi, head of state for another big country. China's made it known they don't want Xi called a dictator. Biden's done it anyway.
It's the scale of the thing that matters here. It's a political statement of gravity. He's calling any bluff they've got going, and demonstrating that the USA doesn't respect China enough to use their preferred nomenclature. It's a calculated insult and a challenge.
A challenge yes, but hard to see as an insult by the audience as while the term isn't flattering in a modern context it's closer to how Xi has aligned himself.

I mean, yeah, the US is a fascist regime which literally inspired Nazi Germany, the only difference is that Germany fell and the US remained to stay alive.
Nazi Germany was inspired by a lot of things, but absolutely the most came from Faschism, invented by Italian leader Benito Mussolini.
The USA couldn't have been fachist at that time even if they wanted to.

Hey! I just started to notice your messages around, with comments very critical of the USA with no argumentation whatsoever, that makes you my very first Lemmy troll, congrats :)
Same here. So ; argue, downvote, report or "don't feed the troll"?
I agree

Yeah both China and USA bad. What of it?
So Xi didn't make himself leader for life? And he doesn't exert significant control over China's government?

90% of your comments and posts are pro-CCP and anti-US. Do you get paid to do this? Or are you that brainwashed?
I think that is not nice way to communicate with people.
They have their opinion and they shared it, it is not rare to be person in current era angry at US and The Global West.
For some people being pro-China or pro-Russia actually means being against US or against NATO, which can be understandable for some parts of the world that were under attack from them in last few decades.
Ask them what happened to them and why they think like they do, maybe we can learn something new.
And why is THAT news?
Like are you people just learning this?
China is a dictatorship. USA is a corrupt pseudofascist empire. Russia is a criminal gang masquerading as a country.
And you're all...surprised? By this info?
Looks like we have a Winnie the Pooh (and CCP) supporter

Yep, a dictator in all but name. Glad Biden called it out... quite a contrast to the sucking up the previous president was infamous for.
Can't wait till China has had enough shit from US and starts cutting US off economically.
It's really an interesting move to insult the leader of a country that you just had a meeting with in order to reverse deteriorating relations. 🤔
The fact that US is run by utter imbeciles has been pretty evident for a while now.
