  Criticizing a “regime” run by democracy, both direct and representative, is criticizing the people. It’s also criticizing a race, in this case, as you people never evolved past the “sneaky Chinaman” stereotype in your criticisms.

    No, again, it’s not. Once elected the government can go against the people’s will. Try again.

      Every communist state to my knowledge has instant recall; if an elected official isn’t doing what you want, you can get signatures to force a recall vote.

    So because you assume China to be a democracy, other people are racist for criticizing the government?

    So any criticism of the U.S. is racism?
