Vote for whom?
Their government.
Any citizen with at least two endorsements from other citizens.
Gee... if the Tiananmen Square protestors only knew that, eh?
They did.
Yes, they did. Until some alphabet agency agent co opt the protest, when it's about inflation and economic crisis. Many Chinese peoples still piss at them till this days, at least learn about the country first before spouting shite

For their peer, they vote for the most competent to run the govt, not some snake oil sales man or senile old man that rely on pr popularity to run the damn country.

Tell me another fairy tale, tankie.
