4 paragraphs of response... Is this a bot response? Or did you just take my comment way too serious?

My experience is that games on Steam are still far more expensive than their pendants for PS4 or similar on ebay (new).

Yes, countries like the EU, which is also on the list.

China is West Taiwan

Official death reason: assassination

Actual death reason: hit by a golf ball.

Me at layer 4 losing my pants, grabing them, leading to a collapse of the whole thing...

We will severely damage our reputation with the rest of the world that will take years and potentially decades to rehabilitat

Awesome, so a democrat cannot fix it in 4 years and the population will vote for an idiot again. Endless circle of stupidity...

How to kill the world economy in 3 easy steps...

Step 1: Populism

That was caused by the windmills of the demcrats.

I want such a voice thingy, but 100% local.

Homeassistant is making porgress with this idea, but it's a slow progress.

A dangerous one for sure...

Your argument is that 1.4 billion people are too stupid or uneducated to ...

No.

despite making up the world’s largest economy

Not an indicator for "democratic".

The people in China support their system because it works.

Well, my view is: They can't change the system, even if they want to. Their "democracy" (if you want to call it like that) does not offer changing anything that CCP want to have. The people on Tiananmen Square for example did not support the system and... You know... Let's connect that with the point above: I don't think, people in China are well educated about that event for some reason...

Or, you can go directly to Chinese state media explaining it themselves.

I have never in my life seen a Tiktok style CCP propaganda video before, so it was quite....... (I don't know which word to put here).... But yeah, if you tell it to your population like that, they might actually think, that they live in a democracy, although even the video makes clear that ONE party in actually the one in power.

I think, the main reasons why people don't try to lean up against the government is: Because it is very risky and because of some great economic progress during the last decades that moved many people out of poverty, but that does not make the country democratic.

With "I have different views" or "I have a reason to not like country XY and it is ...", you can achieve a conversation with someone about it. By burning flags or sending that action as emoji, you are just making sure to end the conversation as quickly as possible or to even prevent it completely.

If you take some time and ask on the streets, you will find a person who has a really good reason to hate a country and you can achieve this for all countries on the planet. And if they start to burn a flag on the streets right on front of a random person, that random person will probably think "What a f*cking idiot".

And it's quite ironic that you write a **3 pages long text **about the usage of a burning-flag-emoji and how it could be interpreted. If you want your view to be interpreted "correctly", then why posting 1 single burning flag in the first place instead of writing what you actually want to say???? It's like showing someone the middle finger and afterwards, I talk an hour with that person and explain them the long story that their dad and I once had a conflict.

When you asked a question about the Uyghurs, and then connected it to the “Jewish Question” based on how I worded my response. That’s dishonest.

Oh, you meant it like that. I actually interpreted it as "The Uyghurs question", like some narrative like "The Taiwan question".

Do you think Chinese people oppose democracy

I think, Chinese people are blasted with lots of propaganda, so I would not even wonder me. But if you can make the people think that they live in a democracy, it's of course not necessary to make it look bad...

Great... You have successfully criticised one of the rankings I posted. Do you have a different one that is better according to you? I'd even accept a pro Chinese one, I'd like to see it and also to see the criteria used by yours...

Economist at least makes them transparent:

 undefined

    
    electoral process and pluralism (12 indicators)
    functioning of government (14 indicators)
    political participation (9 indicators)
    political culture (8 indicators)
    civil liberties (17 indicators)

  

You know what, "comerade"... Feel free to continue uncritically supporting North Korea (whatever than means) and good luck with your "death to XY" attitude... How can you expect anyone to take that serious?

there are separate worldviews than yours

Yes, and between black and white, there is a huge gray area. You should try it out.
