US seen as bigger threat to democracy than Russia or China, 71% Chinese believe China a democracy, global poll finds

And yet both have flourishing democracies, but not China. So it is not just a culture thing.

I m talking about immigration, not social system, be reasonable please.

Ballot is a piece of paper, not democracy itself.

Democracy is accountability, responsibility, good governance, credibility.

Democracy is Of the people, By the people, For the people.

In Covid-19 crisis, we can clearly see India/US government and political system is not accountable at all. Not a single India/US governor was hold accountable.

Modi should be put behind the bar, while Trump deserve the same. Not happening.

If India/US is democracy, that's not Chinese want.

No democracy is perfect and being a democracy doesn’t mean your country becomes Jannat, it is just a form of government, and CCPee should not talk about accountability, we all saw CCPee’s accountability during Wuhan Virus pandemic.

This thread is about Chinese self perceptions about democracy in their country, right?

I m also very impressed that China wiped out Wuhan virus in less than 2 months, it is mind blowing. massive hospitals being finished in days, millions of tons and medical workers from all over China flew in Wuan in hours...

But I try to explain the immigration issue which you raised, it's a culture thing in this region, not only in China.

Of course the USA is a bigger threat to democracy than anyone else. Without the USA being a beacon of democacy and "free will independent me" most democracy and such "independence" will once again disappear.

I raised that point that despite claims to be "democratic" and a rising economy, people still do not believe those claims and try to go elsewhere other than China. A closed country of xenophobes ruled by a communist party is not a very pleasant place, obviously.

Actually more and more foreigner come to China to work , study and live with China improved economic environment, they can't be naturalized cause China largely doesn't accept foregin immigrants, which is also true in Japan and Korea, it's a culture thing which has nothing to do with social or governance systems.

They are not a threat to their own or anybody else's democracy, to stay on topic in this thread. What do you want the question to them to be in the context of this thread?

You mean USA is not threat to democracy? How naive are you?

But China is not even a democracy. Communism is the bigger threat to democracy. That is the point.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but US is the world biggest threat to peace is the opinon most people hold in this world, the polls were not done by China.

Stop shifting goalpost. You slap yourself with the word democracy and you think you will automatically turn real democracy? Lol

Can't believe your logic! The world do not revolve around USA.

US is more of a tyrant than real democracy.

Yes, and more people like Mickey Mouse too.

Let's do this poll in Taiwan and see what the people think about how peaceful China really is.

Well, you are correct that USA is not an ideal democracy, but it is still better than communism.

How many Taiwanese participated in that poll?

Democracy does not means its a society of justice.

For example, in some of the populous states of United States, such as California, Illinois, New York, etc there are more tenants than owners who rent their properties. Currently the tenant want no evictions even if they don't pay for years and therefore it's a law.

So unfortunately, United States is fast becoming a country where the injustice is evident just because majority wants that.
