“Baby level understanding” is not an objection. You have to say something more specific Dessalines.

Sure, I apologize. Here are some entry-level resources into how the PRC’s democracy functions. If you want something more high-level, I can give a few book recommendations, one of which I’m recording lately.
Is China a Democracy?
- Is China a democracy?
- Workplace democracy in action in the CPC.
- What kind of democracy does China have, and how is it different from the west?
- In contrast to low US political approval ratings, 96% of Chinese are satisfied with the national government (Edelmans 2016). World Values Surveys says that 83% think the country is run for their benefit rather than for the benefit of special groups. A Harvard research center study of long-term public opinion survey finds that > 95% of Chinese citizens approved their government. How is this possible in a one-party state? (TED talk by Eric X Li)
- How does China’s political system work?
- How are Chinese leaders elected / chosen? How meristocratic is the system? How do elections differ from those in western bourgeois democracies?
- Who runs China? Makeup of the national people’s congress.
- US policy-makers are misjudging popular support China’s Government.
- The american dream is alive… in China.
