China is indeed not fascist.

It is just an authoritarian police state with a smidge of genocide.

No arguments here. They are an authoritarian police state. Fascism is a specific ideology and thet aren’t pursuing it yet

You're right, it's missing some elements of fascism, while maintaining others. If you'd like to split hairs, I guess it matters. Either way, both nations are Fascist-Light

I’d argue America is going to be fascist soon but China isn’t attempting it.

It’s sad how few people understand fascism compared to how many think they do.
