I'm not sure the word totalitarian means what you think it means.

This is a definition I found:

> A system of government where the people have virtually no authority and the state wields absolute control of every aspect of the country, socially, financially and politically.

The CCP does exactly this - it wields absolute control, except where people are already doing its bidding by default.

China's government is iffy but as a country they mostly just make useful stuff like the laptop I'm typing on. The nazis on the other hand gassed my grandad's bro at Auschwitz. Other Europeans have similar experiences. Musk's nazi salute was was not good car marketing.

I bet you read somewhere, in a magazine.

By your definition, the USA qualifies quiet good.
