China lacks democracy, routinely "disapears" its own promenant people, censors the internet and has the death penatly for the purpose of organ harvesting for the rich[1].

In what way is China not already run by a dystopian regime?

If you propagandize one side like that, of course it looks dystopian.

You could do the same exact thing for pretty much any state, country or bloc.

How about the fact that they lifted 800 million people? Or the fact that they increased literacy rates from 20% before they came in power to nearly 100% today?

Using your logic, everything is always dystopian because you only choose to see the negative.

Every country has positives and negatives. Every single one.

It's not properganda if it's true, it's just news.

I'm sorry but the ends do not justify the means.

Whilst all countries have positives and negatives any country where you can't publically ridicule the ruling elite is dystopian. Every single one.

They also boil little children during secret ceremonies.

That's the sort of claims you've fallen for, so why not?
