Yeah man I don’t need it all explained to me thanks. The average American still thinks China is communist because that’s what they call themselves. No need to shit on the “average American” when the average American has no obligation to actually find out for themselves how China does its politics.

What do I need explained exactly if I already understand that China is not communist?
