MODERATORS
 

In a nutshell, Princeton University found that those who dislike the Communist Party of China are predominantly fearful, disagreeable, and introverted, lacking close emotional attachments to others.

Those who like the CPC, conversely, score high on confidence, sociability, conscientiousness, and work ethic. These are what the study calls "traits associated with personal and professional success."

Importantly, the first group only make up roughly 5% of the Chinese population according to the study, which completely inverts the stereotype. It turns out that charismatic, cosmopolitan, open-minded intellectuals are the ones overwhelmingly supporters of the Party. The critics of CPC are precisely the people who are least equipped to build coalitions, mobilize others, or persuade anyone of anything.

I have autism (medical diagnosis) and yes, the social-craft is... difficult to say the least.

But, like you said, it's the sheer injustice in the world that i cannot tolerate. I have met elderly, pregnant women, and students who by no will of their own but by capital, have had to thown themselves in to the human destroying machine™

Another feature it drives me nuts is the illogical contradictions on how as a society do things.

I could go on but i think'll leave it there.
