What do you guys say to people who say that China is not a democracy because it only has 1 party and people do not vote for president? Or any socialist country in that regard? (lemmygrad.ml)

I find the problem with that is you start falling into the trap of implicitly accepting their narrative that the number of parties has any impact on whether the system is democratic or not. I'd argue it's better to push back on the whole notion from the start.
