Westerners hate their government so much that they cannot see beyond their own parochial worldview to even entertain the idea that some people would feel generally supportive of their government.
Those sneaky Orientals must be lying in order to trick is good, honest, non-perfidious enlightened westerners again.
(Meanwhile, westerners who hate their government would never be brought up on charges for “posessing books, black clothes, fabric, and paint” and then get disappeared into solitary confinement for exercising their constitutional rights)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_grand_jury_resisters].
That’s a very valid contribution that you made to the discussion. Nice work.
Let’s try a different tack then - if it’s illegal to disapprove of the government and you’ll be locked up for it, and 10% of the population voice disapproval, why are only 0.12% of the population imprisoned? Do you actually understand the logistical undertaking disappearing or imprisoning over 140 million people would be? Do you not think it’s more likely that it’s just not illegal to disapprove, and that they really do generally approve of their government?
The 90% figure comes from the Harvard Kennedy School ASH Centre for Democratic Governance and Innovation. There is no fucking possible way you are suggesting that Harvard University is distributing CPC propaganda.
Read the Harvard study, it directly refutes this point of view and even charts some problems Chinese citizens said they have with the government. I cannot imagine being as ignorant as you lmao
Odd how people in a country where it’s illegal to not be happy with the government report being happy with the government

Easterners who hate their government disappear or learn to hide it. Westerners get to piss and moan.
Ah yes, that’s very true. You must be something a field anthropologist.
People in the East wouldn’t ever protest and get away with it.

If it’s illegal then why didn’t the last 10ish% also say they approve?
Shh don’t ask that
Personal bravery? Idk.
God you are ignorant

I believe in your ability to figure it out. Hint: it’s the same reason Putin has consistently high approvals in surveys
