    Oh right I see what you mean. If you pretend China is a democracy my point is automatically disproven, that is true.

      Why would I pretend China is a democracy when it empirically is according to any useful measure?

      High government approval

      Bottom up representation

      Policies benefit the masses

      Wide range of public opinion represented in government
