    Worshiping any nation is dumb—especially both the US & China. If not captalism then communism cuts out all other political ideologies; either/oring is fallacious & too simplistic.

      There are tons of models of socialism, China’s model is just the model that is working for them. Every nation has its own characteristics that shape how socialism will look.

        “controller class” “psyop model” do you just say things or do you have any research or analysis behind this?

            Doesn’t really expand clarify or really have anything to do with what we were talking about? What is the controller class in your mind? Any government officials? And what is China’s “psyop model”? Have you studied China’s history? The make up of China’s government? How Chinese socialist democracy works? If so what sources did you use?

                Again you’re just saying things. Have you done any research or analysis that’s led you to this or is it purely vibes?

                  Vibes have nothing to do with the stuff that is being released week by week and how people are fed up. Not a single place in the world has solved this issue pre-emptively. Same power & control structures with different localized forms and labels have just lost their ground.
