    Can you explain one thing about how the Chinese or Cuban elections work without looking it up?

      Would it change any of your opinion if I did?

      But yes, I can (for China), I can explain the important part … which is that the CCP required to rubber stamp any nomination to run for office. There is no democracy when your rule can not be meaningfully challenged.

      This is furthered by the infringement of rights that is the great firewall.
