    One poll I haven’t seen is what proportion of Chinese people think they’re living in a democracy vs. what proportion of USians. That would be interesting.

      Im not sure if I’ve seen that as one poll done by the same group across both countries, but I’ve definitely seen those numbers and it was like 70%+ of Chinese and much lower for the U.S.

      Edit: here’s one, it’s higher than I remembered for China, 83% of respondents to a poll in 2022 said the PRC is a democracy with 91% saying that democracy is important to them.
