Wow, I’m sure glad I don’t live in China. I could never live somewhere people aren’t allowed to think freely or live as individuals!!

      Glad to hear!! Have you checked out the mandelorian or squid game yet? They are both brilliant critiques of communist systems.

      • I’ve heard that Squid Game is literally what life is like in North Korea, so I don’t feel the need to watch it. I haven’t heard anything like that about the Mandalorian, but it does make sense; after all, George Lucas originally modeled the Empire after a brutally dictatorial communist regime.

          Exactly, in fact if you look closely you can see how the rebel firebird symbol is reminiscent of the US flag while the empire is more akin to the hammer and sickle.
