You realise all of those adverbs are subjective in themselves as they a led by the terms “feature aspects of” and “tends”. There is no definition that specifies in exact terms because each political sphere is different. Even your final definition has a prediction embedded which is impossible to prove.

Far rightwing is a subjective view. What is far right in most west countries is nothing on the scale of some 3rd world nations.

Individuals covered it up. They should serve a lot of time for what they did to a lot of people’s lives. Many innocent people were accused convicted and livelihoods destroyed. Labour really need to look at this once in power. It is a massive disgrace.

No, I am talking about the government collecting data with the intention of using it to campaign for office.

Labour didn’t do anything about back then because it was not an issue.

Data farming is a fairly recent abuse. The Tories have just pushed two laws: one was the right to view any bank accounts that are receiving benefits and the other is the right to send spam mail out while campaigning. The first is an abuse towards those without money, as well as a data farming action. The second is what the Cambridge Analytica scandal was about.

This is very much a Tory driven initiative. Labour probably won’t address the issue because it is not visibly destructive. Everything will be about appearance when they come to power. Anything that the Tory media can get hold of to stain the Labour government will be pushed front and centre. Much like the beergate campaign was.

The government is on the take. It is open season on anyone not donating to the Tories.

So yet again absolutely nothing to substantiate your point of view. GL with your life.

What is the chance that Trump’s team could actually tell the truth?

In your opinion. Most of the world has a different opinion. I wont bother responding to your alternate account. Seriously, using two accounts to barrack a differing opinion, sigh.

You state a lot of BS while providing absolutely no evidence to give it any credit, other than your bias towards the west. What links does this guy have to “wired” or the many other media sources that show exactly what is going on in China.

They literally have 9 parties

Does dissuade from the fact that only Communist-party backed candidates can appear in the election. This was the reason there were so many rioters in HK. And hence, why so many were imprisoned or ran from the country for asylum elsewhere.

That propaganda:

Propaganda is a made up narrative to persuade an objective viewpoint. What is happening with Uighurs has a lot of factual video evidence, including first hand reports from those who fled to Türkiye. If it is so untrue why won’t China allow visiting diplomats talk about it?

is old news that was abandoned when the area opened up for tourism again, and there were magically no camps

Unbelievably crass opinion. https://www.wired.com/story/xinjiang-uyghur-culture-tourism/

Talking to locals about the camps was impossible. “You can’t really talk to them, because then you’re putting them in danger,” Wack says. “If you mention anything political, they cut the conversation short.” Because he couldn’t visit the camps themselves, he was forced to suggest their presence by documenting how the region has changed. For decades, the Communist Party has been trying to eliminate markers of Uyghur identity and remake Xinjiang so that it appears more “Chinese.” As part of the Belt and Road Initiative, the government has been building major infrastructure projects like high-speed trains and superhighways through the remote province. It has also encouraged Han Chinese, the country’s dominant ethnic group, to move to the area in order to dilute the percentage of Uyghurs living there.

Notice how you didn’t include any evidence of Xi being a dictator

Aside from the fact that no one is allowed to run for elections unless they have party approval. China doesn’t even try to hide that there is no real democracy there.

Proving incompetence is a higher bar than at will employment actually

Subjective.

They materially don’t.

Again subjective.

China isnt involved in carrying out a genocide rn, and China hasn’t destabilized the middle east through mass violence. China is better.

Come on. Uighurs must surely count as human beings. That is just plain wrong man.

Hitler’s party was elected in, much like the UK prime minister is not actually elected. Hitler still had to win a seat in the Reichstag, so…

Putin is a dictator. No one is allowed to stand against him. In the current election the 29 candidates who have tried to stand have had that right taken away from them for one reason or another. Putin has the final say on what goes on in Russia. Putin and Xi may have the illusion of being recalled, but it will not happen. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either spouting propaganda or one very gullible individual.

I can easily believe that the GOP are creating problem for the LBGQT community, but they are soon to be ousted from any power they posses. Many of the gerrymandering that has gone on has been reversed or will be in time for the next elections. In NY state alone this will be enough to overturn the lead the GOP has on blocking legislation.

As for the “at will employment” law China has exactly the same thing.

The reasons for dismissal with prior notice, which are not attributable to the faults of the employee, include incompetence even after training or a transfer of position, non-work-related illness, and a change in the objective circumstances on which the labour contract was originally concluded.

Where the incompetance is discretionary then there is little an employee can do to protect himself.

The USA has National anti discrimination laws, China has no discriminatory laws, but also has nothing to protect an individual.

So your idea that China is a better place to be doesn’t really hold water in my opinion. Yes, there are some republican states that are making things hard, but this is a very short lived episode in US politics imo.

Since 2020 China literally has more workplace protections for trans people than the US

So does this mean China has better protection ? This is not a valid comment unless they are both starting from the same point.

Also Xi isn’t a dictator. He was literally elected by a democratic assembly.

Adolf Hitler was elected, as was Putin. All are essentially the sole control of their countries. Being a dictator is not summarised by the method you gain power; it is what you do with that power after it obtained.

It should be made a criminal offence to deliberately destroy government records. There needs to be an emphasis that they need to take active steps to protect those records. this lot are taking the piss.

As are Labour. The Tories are not the only culprit here. It was listed in the 1997 Labour manifesto pledge.

We are committed to a referendum on the voting system for the House of Commons. An independent commission on voting systems will be appointed early to recommend a proportional alternative to the first-past-the-post system.

Except the Netherlands is a flat country and the UK has a large area of high ground running down the middle of it. There is not a lot of difference when you compare the whole of the UK, but regionally some parts of the UK are very wet. The Netherlands does not get as much rainfall simply because there is not much high ground to force pressure changes with the clouds.

You can get air fed suits for toxic environments. I have seen these used in car manufacturing. From accounts of the lads there, they were very heavy to work with.

It is because funding prior to 2010 was drastically less than other areas. There is a need to let those deprived areas catch up.

The most deprived fifth of local authorities receive hourly resources that are 12% higher than areas in the most affluent fifth, after accounting for higher provider costs in London. This results from funding for deprivation, disability and additional language needs in the Early Years National Funding Formula, as well as the Early Years Pupil Premium and the Disability Access Fund.

No one said there is a conspiracy. The BBC has blatant bias issues. What do you think the Lineker was about and the subsequent resignation that followed it. Bloody hell even Emily Maitlis took the effort to diss the BBC when she left.
