Yes, and if you're getting a 100% Rosey picture of China and the CCP guess what? It's just different propaganda. There's good and bad things about China. For me bad things outweighed the good.

i never claimed to have a 100% rosey picture of china.

its just that its miles better than the alternative championed by nations that haven't stopped dropping bombs and economically coercing everyone else for at least a couple hundred years.

does living in a given country has to do with having a "rosey picture of it", or somehow with not coercing other countries?

So no. So it's impossible for you to really make an accurate comparison. So your opinion here is literally worthless.

many trump supporters are born and raised in the US. they seem to have a pretty rosey picture of their own past too, i wonder if they can accurately tell whats going on in their own country? 🤔

i guess lets base our opinions of cuba by what gusanos or liberals have to say about it....

i noticed you are the angry dude i just responded to on the other thread, so goodbye and have a nice day.

Angry? Me thinks he projects too much. I lived there. I base my opinion on first hand experience. So the fact that you haven't means your basing your experience on something that somebody else WANTS you to think. You're an actual sheep.
