CybranM comments on China’s First High-End Gaming GPU, the Lisuan G100, Reportedly Outperforms NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 4060 & Slightly Behind the RTX 5060 in New Benchmarks

Hmm, yeah the ethno-state that is china has never done anything wrong, especially not to its own citizens.

What will the Chinese government do to me?

What will a democratic government do to you?

Nations are allowed to choose alternative forms

Sure, but the people of china don't have much say. If they voice a critical opinion they're silenced, doesn't seem like they're allowed to choose.

I'm sure you've heard the Churchill quote: "Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time."

You'd rather live under a dictatorship than in a democracy? That's an interesting opinion, not without its merit I'll admit. A benevolent dictator can be the most effective form of government, the problem is what happens after they're gone.

Ethnostate? I think you’re thinking of Israel. The idea of a “Han supremacist” state comes exclusively from Western propaganda, and the “Uyghur genocide” is a psyop[1][2][3].

More propaganda. By their own account, Chinese people feel they’re being heard by their government, much more so than Americans do. You can say whatever you like in the US because free speech here is like shouting at the wind.
