No, but it's about a third China

I'm not reading a pop politics book for you. Go read The Gulag Archipelago.

Corrupt politicians purging enemies is not the win you think it is there, chief.

UK.

Oh, it would be way worse, because communism is always way worse.

I think it would still be terrible even if there were no USA. If there were no USA, whatever brought them down would have collapsed the entire world's economy and there would be thousands of nukes lying around.

I'd rather be a billionaire in the US because my English is better than my Mandarin. Quality of life would be exactly the same at that income bracket wherever you live in the world. Labor protection would be weaker in China though, if I were looking to exploit my workers...

Not in the UK, where the meme is set. NHS hospital administrators don't get a cut of any money because there is no money.

I was taught the tenets of Buddhism in my nationally-required Religious education lessons. Does that make me a Buddhist? Does that make my nation a Buddhist one?

There, your question is answered.

China has been peddling the same excuse about needing to get their economy up to a certain point before they can fully embrace communism since the Great Step Forward.

Meanwhile, there are 969 billionaires in China, it is the home of sweatshops and workers aren't legally allowed to strike.
