Cracking down on corruption
you know, it's easier to convince a group of people to conduct morally ambiguous or reprehensible behaviour than it is to convince an individual
lmao, 'corruption' during fascist italy was low because the state legalized most forms of it, not because there was not intense amount of favouritism going on<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>
Can you give me some examples?
Here we go "Facism is the solution"
No, it will just get bitch slapped by a liberal nation...
again
<:Doubt:588038713938804760>
Citing China as a good example of governance
Good luck beating China while being liberal <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>
It's great so long as you aren't the vast majority of people
*Good luck beating germany while being a liberal nation"
oh wait
or USSR
oh wait
Oh wait
Also Opium wars
China isn't Germany nor the USSR <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>
China is actively using our systems against us.
The USSR and Germany didn't.
China isn't pushing for hard power. They're pushing for soft power
*Looks at south china sea*
<:Doubt:588038713938804760>
I mean you solution
*Looks at belt and road*
consolidation of power through "cracking down on corruption" isn't really all that altruistic, more a sign of a power-hungry dictator
*Looks at Australia*
Is just "Well lets just make people slaves to the state"
*Looks at Africa*
*Looks at the massive deep-water ports they're building*
*That'll work this time RIGHT GUYS?*
*Looks at the nearly 1 / 3 of British energy generation they own*
You are citing time proven terrible governance models
Its hard to take you seriously
"Yeah guys!! They're just like the people before!"
🤔
Yeah guys! Just like the USSR!
So your solution is to subjugate the people of the countries
