    They don’t as the links I provided clearly show. Maybe actually look at the sources before replying.

      That’s a gish gallop, and the core premise that people believing it’s democratic makes it so is incorrect.

        The very first article yogthos showed you, had a poll that showed half of usonians don’t think their country is a democracy (they’re right)

        The US congress, its highest governing body, hasn’t gotten over a 20% approval rating for many years.

          You’re deliberately avoiding the core premise that people thinking it’s democratic means it’s democratic.

            Okay then, here are some articles showing how china’s people’s democracy works, and why they intentionally avoid the capitalist dictatorship model common in western countries.

            Is China a Democracy?

            • Is China a democracy?
            • Workplace democracy in action in the CPC.
            • What kind of democracy does China have, and how is it different from the west?
            • In contrast to low US political approval ratings, 96% of Chinese are satisfied with the national government (Edelmans 2016). World Values Surveys says that 83% think the country is run for their benefit rather than for the benefit of special groups. A Harvard research center study of long-term public opinion survey finds that > 95% of Chinese citizens approved their government. How is this possible in a one-party state? (TED talk by Eric X Li)
            • How does China’s political system work?
            • How are Chinese leaders elected / chosen? How meristocratic is the system? How do elections differ from those in western bourgeois democracies?
            • Who runs China? Makeup of the national people’s congress.
            • US policy-makers are misjudging popular support China’s Government.
            • The american dream is alive… in China.

            What makes you right and a bunch of people who actually live in China wrong?
