> ruling establishment in China enjoy majority support

We don’t know the support because anyone who dares to speak up is silenced. People are too scared to say they don’t like the government.

The claim is that the CCP has 95% approval rating. But the local governments have a 10% approval rating.

The local governments are The Central government. Nothing the local governments do is done without The Central governments oversight and approval. So that 95% approval isn’t real. But I sure as hell wouldn’t say I disapprove if I lived in china.
