    China executes pedophiles, as well as corrupt politicians and business-people. The U.S. elects them to office, or just worships them outright.

    I don’t know about y’all but the more I hear about this China, the more I like ‘em… Except that time I learned about genocide. But, they have some good ideas.

    The penalties don't need to be so severe, only they need to be enforced and no one is above the law.

    Frankly, I'm a bit wary of executions, because they open convenient way of getting rid of opposition. All is needed is to fabricate some evidence, and have the person executed. Once that's done there's no way to being the person back, even when you have proof they were innocent.

    Bo Xilai.

    They don't need such severe penalties to get rid of political opponents. But of course where you stand on the case will depend on your trust in government and giving them the power to execute people will really depend on that as well.

    While I fully support imprisoning corrupt politicians and we should do that more often, I wouldn't say that China does that. They get rid of politicians who aren't falling in line and corruption is just the vehicle to do it. Because everyone is. By design, I believe, not only does that allow the politicians to live in luxury compared to the poor folks working 12 hours a day, six days a week, but in case some politician is getting uncomfortable they can dig up corruption charges.

    Were they wealthy sex criminals? I assure you, the US executes plenty of sex criminals, just not the rich ones.

    The death penalty is evil, as is punitive justice. The goal of the criminal system should be to rehabilitate people so they don't do it again, or if that's impossible, to isolate them from society. Not to punish them in a very permanent way.

    That's fine and great. Until you realize they can and do accuse then convict people of sex crimes with no evidence. Usually, just cause they said something politically inconvenient like mentioning tiananmen square...

    and then i'm instantly proven wrong by one of the good ones. not all finns are as stupid or evil as it seems online (i should know, i'm finnish also)

    but yeah, i wouldn't bother with that place. they seem to still harbor their liberal brain worms and western chauvinistic tendencies over there. i suggest lemmygrad and hexbear also for a more nuanced experience, though discourse in finnish seems light

    So true, by not using an acronym i have never heard of in my life until just now, that i don't know what it stands for as opposed to ccp, I'm outing my ethnosupremacist tendencies. I am also very likely to start using this other acronym with no explanation because some random commentor on lemmy said so!

    I'm not the guy you replied to but how disconnected from reality do you have to be for that statement?

    an acronym i have never heard of in my life until just now,

    Well that just proves you aren't qualified to be a part of this conversation.

    Unless you have investigated a problem, you will be deprived of the right to speak on it. Isn't that too harsh? Not in the least. When you have not probed into a problem, into the present facts and its past history, and know nothing of its essentials, whatever you say about it will undoubtedly be nonsense.

    To add to what others have already said and explain what i think is the essence of my point - from the very beggining parties named themsleves Yada Yada Party of Country to include all oppressed peoples of their land. Westoids twist Communist Party of China into Chinese Communist Party to imply that party represents ethnic interest instead of a class one, which in and of itself exposes how they percieve politics and governance.

    This becomes obvious the moment you are able to read.

    And also fucking encyclopedias and search engines exists, so fuck off with this helpless loser attitude

    I don't know what this ccp is, but I definitely do not think that CPC officials are diddling kids. It's incredible how westerners have infinite capacity to project what goes on in their own rotten societies on everyone else.

    I didn't say nobody there is rotten. But what I do know is that people have been ejected from CPC and even jailed for far less, something that doesn't happen in the west. Having actual accountability is the difference.

    you're drawing a very long bow there. I lived in the PRC for a long time and they had their fair share of issues like this to deal with; that said, white collar crime and sex crimes in general go largely unpunished in patriarchal cultures, so no surprise in either case.

    It is now well documented that the west is ruled by pedos who are completely and utterly unaccountable. Meanwhile, the same cannot be said for CPC. Sure, there is corruption and crime in China, just like in every human society. But we see people actually being held accountable when crimes are discovered. That's the fucking difference.

    sure bud, people in China are regularly sentenced for corruption which never happens in the west. But some internet trolls says there's absolutely no difference between the two systems so it must be true.

    again, drawing a long bow there. I said white collar crime and sex crimes go largely unpunished in patriarchal cultures; i stand by that, i feel it would be naive to think otherwise.

    Why do people keep talking about "cost per click" that's what comes up when I search the CPC acronym...

    4 different search engines not a single item related to China.

    And if China did change from CCP to CPC. My first question would be why? Maybe trying to distance themselves from all the evil shit they did as CCP?

    It's always been The Communist Party of China (CPC), the whole ccp thing was started by the US to intentionally disrespect what the party actually calls itself. Similarly to the way the west calls DPRK North Korea. And wow let's just look at all the evil shit they did. Absolutely horrific stuff on display here.

    90% of families in the country own their home giving China one of the highest home ownership rates in the world. What’s more is that 80% of these homes are owned outright, without mortgages or any other leans. https://www.forbes.com/sites/wadeshepard/2016/03/30/how-people-in-china-afford-their-outrageously-expensive-homes

    The composition of government officials in leadership positions is very different in China than other countries. More than 40% of them hold STEM related degrees. But more importantly it's not like they're exempt from the same mass surveillance everyone else is. There is no privacy, but it's generally seen as a tradeoff for security. With such intense punishments and mass surveillance, I really don't think they are.
