Generally speaking I think I view china negatively but that's probably because I live in America and honestly don't know much about it. Sinophobia etc etc. But honestly until recently the only other socialist country I even knew existed was Vietnam.

I think more authoritarian governments just make me a bit nervous.

Comrade, you need to get on board with the Cuba pill. Listen to Blowback Season 2 and embrace the fidel-cool

I'll just say that Blowback, in general, is great for the Imperialist brainworms. While season 1 is Iraq, which most people "know", the following seasons are really incredible in developing some of the insanity that amerikkka has engaged in over the 20th c.

Seconding Blowback, I'm six episodes in and went from "Hmm I feel icky about Cuba" to "Holy fucking shit I can't believe we would do that to them, I unequivocally support Cuba"

The news from Cuba is even better since the season aired. Their constitution is now more progressive to LGBTQ people than amerikkka
