As a civ player, I know a cultural victory when I see one.
My people are now ~~listening to your pop music and wear your blue jeans~~ eating your noodles and use your social media apps.
Thanks for the flags, I needed them /s
Remember that "Grapes of Wrath" completely backfired as a propaganda piece because Russians were amazed that poor Americans could still afford cars
Wait, China's not a dystopian nightmare?
If you're not against the powers that be, it's great. Like, for instance, I don't know, Nazi Germany was.
Nazi Germany became pretty bad for the Nazis too in the end. Fascist warmongering usually ends that way.
I imagine it could be if you were a minority or a political dissident.
The fact that so many people went through sexual and gender self discovery on Tiktock, but such things are discouraged by the government in China says a lot that makes me uncomfortable.
Not being able to openly criticise the government and its policies also doesn't sit well with me.
It's not my government though, so that's where my criticism ends. If that's what the majority of people want, that's just democracy by another avenue. So long as people are allowed to leave if they choose, then that's fine.
