China, Russia and the US are all authoritarian states and none of them are your friends
I guess it would be hard to be friends with a country, it’s quite big… with lots of people.
Jokes aside, this is the equivalent of sticking your head in the sand. You’re more concerned with sounding like a good person rather than investigating the truth. Using the word authoritarian, just like how many liberals use the word totalitarian or tankie, is just a way to generate self-flattering, psuedo-intellectual discussions based on pure idealism.
