China and North Korea both have authoritarian dictators with unlimited terms and no permitted opposition party, and North Korea is functionally a monarchy. I’ll very gladly take even a deeply flawed democracy over none at all.
ok but if you think we’re better than china then you actually need to re-evaluate like oh they have surveillance? ok so do we but it’s more discreet be so for real we’re no better
also North Korea is still in the WHO tho so they’re better than us in that
