The overwhelming majority of Chinese people stand by their government, with levels of approval and satisfaction way higher than Americans' for theirs (95% vs 38%) [1]

All this talk of "the CCP" is just a very thin veil of self-deception, allowing you to pretend that you are "on the same side" of the Chinese people. You're not. The best future for China is to become the dominant world power, and you don't want that in any form or shape, am I wrong?

And guess which country disappears citizens for “re-education” if they speak out against said government. You’d have to be daft to respond to those surveys negatively in China if there was any kind of chance your response could be traced back to you.

Yes, you are wrong. Becoming “the” dominant world power has little to do with the good of the people. Norway’s citizens are better off than US citizens on average and Norway is irrelevant on the global power scale.

Regardless, you are still confused about what people are against. It’s not China becoming a world power (it already is). It’s literally the abusive way the CCP treats dissidents. Look at the Muslim camps, look at Honk Kong, look at Winnie the Pooh.

Let it sink in that most people are happy the Chinese lives are improving. The issue is with the fascists at the top.

Do you really think it's safe to give an honest negative answer when asked your opinion of the CCCP in China?

Personally I doubt it, and I imagine that the average Chinese citizen understands this reality very well indeed as they give their positive answers to the nice poll agent with the sincerest smile they can muster.

Everyone knows how the game is played.

Do you really think the people involved in this 13 year survey are so stupid they didn't think of the issue you could identify in a good 5 seconds of thinking before writing your comment?

Their paper outlines no solution to this.

Oh, I’m sure they’ve thought of it. I simply doubt that they’re able to meaningfully counter it.
