[quote=Anonymous]China is 92 percent Han Chinese. Yes, there are Tibetans and Uyghurs and so on in western China, but overall it's pretty culturally monolithic. So it has a very different reality than a country as diverse as the US. In the abstract, people may appreciate the stability of Xi and a technocratic elite that thinks longterm over the chaos and instability Americans are choosing with their voting for Trump and putting morons in government who can't think beyond the next election. However, these two systems are not interchangeable. The US would have a revolution the minute we tried to impose a Chinese system. And China would fall apart if they had an American style democracy. But democracy and free-for-all capitalism has certainly not been distinguishing itself in recent years. Whereas China has. But it's not a replicable system in the vast majority of countries. [/quote]
