No just one out of every 14 people, which you may notice is many thousands of times more democratic than any of the western so-called democracies by percentage.

In reference to my original post, we agree that authoritarianism is bad and you are arguing the case that China and the CCP is not authoritarian, correct?

No. We disagree that “authoritarianism” is a meaningful distinction when every government exists by authority. Might as well call it “badguyism”
