Fascism is a very specific list of things, all of which have virtually nothing to do with China, even at its worst.

What they do might be similar to some elements of fascism, but they have no relationship at all to fascism.

The first emperor of unified China, Qin Shi Huang, set up the first, almost modern police state, with most of the elements we recognize in police states today. In the 3rd Century BC.

While he ordered that all historians be buried alive, so that Chinese history would begin with his reign, after his time, it did. So they had plenty of similar to fascist examples in their own history without ever verging on anything like European fascism.

Oddly enough, a lot of what they did was far worse than anything European fascists ever did, and many things the European fascists would never dream of doing, and would be horrified if it was even suggested.

Truthfully, it makes as little sense as saying the modern Chinese are acting like “Methodists”. No, they are acting just like Chinese.

I understand what you are saying, but it’s meaningless, really.

Obviously they aren’t acting like Methodists.

How would you describe the PRC?
