It seems that the democRATs think this is a superior system. It may be, but only for them.
The Communist Party of China runs a theocracy. Founded 100 years ago, it has followed a trajectory away from Western Marxism toward the religious precepts of China two-and-a-half millennia ago …No it doesn’t, and no it has not gone away from so-called “Western Marxism” at all. If the Jade Emperor is suddenly countenanced as their god publicly, then that would be considered theocratic. If they stop persecuting religions, then that would be a move away from so-called “Western Marxism”. Not to mention, it is not unusual to elevate the dictator in a “Western Marxist” state to a status like a god-king, which was done with Lenin and Stalin.
