“Why would I vote out [authoritarian government]? It’s a very popular government!” -every authoritarian supporter, ever

So you’re just straight up admitting that you don’t care if the government is popular: you don’t like it, so it has to go

And there have been capitalist parties voted out in the West, so even with that false pretext your argument is moot.

Lol. When?

Western democracies are maybe heading in that direction, possibly -> yeah, they’re not a monolithic block, different countries are different, just like Asian countries are not a monolithic block - and backsliding into authoritarianism isn’t something that happens overnight

I have no idea how you managed to miss the point the completely and absolutely.

no, my idea of democracy is that the people have the right to chose a different party

Ah. So actually being able to choose policy doesn’t matter; what matters is being able to choose between red team and blue team

no, because I believe humans have a right to chose who governs them

And the people of China have chosen the CPC. But you’ll never accept that, because they’re not who you want them to choose. You will never accept that China is democratic unless it’s run by people you like.
