Mongolia is a corrupt meme, North Korea is of course not, South Korea is super corrupt and ruled by shamans, China is as authoritarian as they have been for the last two millennia. The only one that could possibly be considered democratic is Japan, but the Japanese have a low sense of political efficacy and have basically been ruled by a single party state (pic rel is their logo) since WW2.
China has been an legalist nation led by bureaucrats since it was first unified. The communist party is just a replacement for the imperial court, although more functional and less corrupt.

Democracy is the destroyer of the western world. The Asian countries are the only countries that are succeeding because they understand the foolishness of democracy and the importance of racial purity

Is Marutei Tsurunen mentioned?
> Tsurunen served as a representative of the Democrats in the House of Lords of Japan in 2002-2013 as her first Western-born member.
It's a hell of a hell of a thing when you think about how dubious Japanese are foreigners. Sure Finland is a kind of exception, the older population knows and values Mannerheim and the Finns.
Owen Jackson
While there is an element of truth to what you're saying, the way you're saying it makes me thing you look like this
Asher Reyes
200 officers of varying rank in the PLA just got purged a few weeks ago for massive corruption. One general even killed himself rather than go to prison. Pretending the chinese system isn't corrupt to the bone is fantasy.

Ethan Taylor
but those are both good things you mong, it's incomparable to what imperial china could or would do. corruption is the main factor against development in east and south-east asian countries, Xi Jinping and his anti-corruption plan are necessary if china wants any chance at stability and security.
The rest of the Next 11 are also desperately trying to fight against corruption, and so far china seems to be among the better ones.
Brayden Taylor
How's Taiwan?
Anthony Wilson
you realize the purging corruption is just a cover for purging political opponents and opposition
Blake Perez
shh... he doesn't know about the civil war between xi and jiang factions
Bentley Cooper
yeah because we are basically mindless drones that exactly look alike
even as an asian i have hard time telling who is who in public spaces like subway and the fact that i'm one of them is making me want to consider suicide
Leo Hughes
>South Korea >ruled by shamans
Explain

eiu.com/topic/democracy-index Anyway My country is regarded as somehow democracy...according to the economists Japan is higher democratic than US by 1 rank
Dylan Hall
actually, the Liberal Democratic Party was lost in the 1993 elections because of the Asian Economic Crisis. Their Gen Z's was also called as the Lost Generation of Japan
Zachary Barnes
cunt, by "purging corruption" they mean "purging opponents". chinese culture is corrupt to the core, it's only considered an issue when it's inconvenient for the most powerful. they even spread that shit throughout asia, africa, and oceania.
Jaxon Ramirez
One of the reasons Japan's been a practical one party state is that LDP, while usually classified as conservative, has (or had) various factions in it which functions as mini parties that satisfy a wide spectrum of political demands except extremist ones, ranging from liberal to conservative; and founded as a pro-US party, LDP's candidates were considered to be not (at least not full-blown) commie sympathizer or fifth column during the Cold War, which reinforced their supremacy for a long time. It was sort of like a Walmart of a party - you can get things that would do in one place even though the quality isn't best.
Also, speaking of two party system, it's ironic that pre-ww2 japan was one of those states consisting of two big parties called Seiyukai and Minseito.
James Ross
well Korea is a 2 party state
Parker Lopez
I want to fuck my LDP supporting neo-conservative Japanese college professor in the ass and then impregnate her pussy with my Chinese dragon sperm.
Lucas Ramirez
yes it is
Henry Martin
2016 killed any naive belief I had in direct democracy. Give me technocracy or give me death.
Mason Johnson
>dragon sperm
Cringe
Jason Stewart
Not so much any more actually...
The years 1997~2016 were an exception to most of South Korean history which has seen opposition movements extremely weak
Josiah Myers
>dragon sperm
John Gomez
Republicans are extremely corrupt. Democrats aint better but they tend to push for better social programs and such. Also democrats are cucks to north korea who think throwing money at kim would make them go away.
Aiden King
i'm a bad dragon
Parker Allen
Who is gonna win the next election ?
Thomas Watson
Third parties are always cancer in korea. Noone likes them desu. I fucking hate liberals in general. Especially those liberal cancer gooks from jeolla and seoul.
Caleb Ramirez
SK has alot of shitskins and SEAniggers now tho. Funny in SK the republicans are more open to multiculturalism and democrats oppose it.
Hudson Nelson
Gyeongsang dog get out
Landon Phillips
Everyone in korea now are liberal cucks moon is like obama who people think will bring change but in reality he wont do shit like all the rest of those democrat cancer retards. My parents are actually from gangwon a rural republican christian province kkk.
Matthew Mitchell
We’re not exactly a paragon of democracy anymore. The US is the most powerful country in the world, so it lends itself to ambitious people attempting to use its power to their own gain. American citizens still have the ultimate say, but it’s become a battleground for every aflluent petsob in the world to try and coerce us to vote a certain way.
Isaiah Gray
With that faulty logic you can say that the CCP is democratic because there are multiple factions within it.
Adam Murphy
The difference is, we have actually have alternatives and yet people prefer LDP as a sort of screening.
Nolan Brooks
*have actually had
Brody Ward
Yeah but they are still corrupt
Jiang literally chose Xi as the Hu’s successor though.
Gabriel Jackson
why is japan so goddamn infantile? why does everything need a cute little animal or mascot
Noah Jackson
because kawaii is justice
Ryan Thomas
>only one that could possibly be considered democratic is Japan I didn't realize the Yakuza were voted in.
Josiah Harris
They aren't insecure to admit that sometimes people can like things that isn't jacked up with hyper-testronoe because they fear of being called a gay.
Tyler Miller
I always vote for japanese communist party How would you react if japan was ruled by it?
Colton Phillips
CCP has like five factions in it.
LDP Japan is not a full democracy. It’s a controlled democracy. The election results display that.
Nolan Mitchell
Wise words. Nothing wrong with cute things unless you are insecure about your own masculinity.
Michael Roberts
Like this
Nolan Gomez
Cute things are nice, faggot.
Juan Allen
DPJ and Commies? Great “alternatives”
It’s like calling the democrats “alternatives” in the USA. The GOP and Dems agree on 98% of policy (like fucking over the average citizen). We just see the stuff they disagree on.
Eli White
If you aren't meming, I salute you comrade.
Evan Perez
Yeah a lot of young Japanese people don't care or know about politics.
