When you say “top of the world,” the US is the world hegemon with the greatest amount of wealth and plunder. It distributes it very poorly because it’s a dying capitalist empire, of course. Nordic countries are in some ways behind China and in some ways ahead even if they fare better than the US, but that’s because of imperialism still, and not an example of capitalism working. China shows that, despite developing far later than the imperialist west (take your pick on whichever one), it has managed to develop far more quickly and for the benefit of all, rather than an elite few.
Don’t insinuate that I’m a bot. Dehumanization is bad. Either explain what you mean by “best in class” or accept that it’s possible that someone would interpret it as I did.
No? I included the Nordics as well. What are you trying to say, here? I used the US Empire as its the dying world hegemon, but use any western European state you like and it’s similar.
China beats the US when it comes to quality of life for those without much money, though. Maybe if you were talking 20 years ago the situation would be different, but China has absolutely surpassed the US. Further, the US Empire relies on imperialism, and has been a developed country for far longer. China at the moment is the world’s most developed socialist country, and it already surpasses the US Empire.
A human put in the prompt and posted the output, yes. The message is what’s most important for agitprop.
Sure, but already it’s better to be poor in China than poor in the US.
China eradicated extreme poverty, and has been extremely consistent when it comes to improving quality of life year over year. Imperialist countries may have higher quality of life in some areas, such as the Nordics, but they are regularly deteriorating thanks to capitalism while China is regularly rising thanks to socialism.


I think it’s a good thing when the working class is in charge and capitalism, fascism, slavery, and monarchy is eradicated and those who would uphold them are frustrated by force.
Keep supporting western imperialism, homophobia, racism, Euronationalism, and anti-communism with Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Adolf Hitler, Pinochet, Milei, Trump, Kier Starmer, Merz, Macron, Netanyahu, Zelensky, and all your far-right buddies.
Socialist countries generally have better safety nets, like China. Even Cuba, poor and sanctioned as it is, takes better care of its poorest than capitalist countries do.


Russia isn’t imperialist, it doesn’t have a stake in the global financial monopoly that it uses to plunder the world. The west does though, Italy included.
China isn’t socialist because their party is called the Communist Party of China, but because public ownership is the principle aspect of the economy and the working classes are in control of the state. They do let people report on their systems, what they don’t do is allow imperialist countries like the US and European countries to interfere or attempt regime change.
The far-right generally doesn’t care about Ukraine or Russia, what they want is for imperialist countries to stop giving aid to Ukraine. The far-right also has anti-semites that oppose Israel not because Israel is fascist and committing genocide, but because it’s Jewish. You do realize that your far-right views are aligned on your view of socialist countries and support for western imperialism?


Fascism has never been stopped by electoralism. Fascism is capitalism in decay. Italy is absolutely capable of being considered fascist, it’s an imperialist country with a right-wing government. I also gave you clear examples of Kiev suppressing ethnic Russians, slaughtering them and erasing their language. You’re projecting hard and trying to hide behind insults.


No, you’re ridiculous. Putin is a nationalist, sure, but Russia isn’t imperialist like the US and western Europe. Kim Jong-Un and Xi Jinping are socialists, not fascists like Macron, Trump, Starmer, Merz, etc. Lukashenko is popular in Belarus, and independent sites exist in China all the time.
You’re an admitted Euronationalist, a supporter of imperialism and a demonizer of socialism and socialists, a racist, a homophobe, all around far-right. I’m a communist, and support socialist countries and oppose imperialism. The government in China in particular is extremely popular, with over 90% approval rates even when taken by western orgs, and a more genuinely democratic government than any western country:

I’m indeed “stubborn” in that I’m consistent in supporting the working classes and opposing imperialism.
/s doesn’t take away from the point, it’s just an indicator. In this day and age, it’s legitimately impossible to tell otherwise sometimes.
People license themselves into believing that that which benefits them is good. They aren’t married to the ideas, they willingly choose to believe them until their material conditions prove them inaccurate through their new lived experience. Red Sails has a series on “brainwashing” that I consider critical reading for anyone wanting to agitate, especially Roderic Day’s Masses, Elites, and Rebels: The Theory of “Brainwashing.”
Sure.
Trade isn’t the same thing as capitalism, to be fair. Socialist countries also exist.
Then we explain it to them until they get it. It’s not hard to explain that capitalists are those who own capital, and liberals are those that support capitalism.
That’s why terms like liberal are useful.
But that doesn’t make sense, you compare among peers in development timeframes where you can, as well as size and location. Nordic countries tend to have good safety nets, but they also fund them from imperialism, and they’ve been developing for a longer period of time. China isn’t imperialist, and it’s only recently been developing. If you’re trying to compare capitalism and socialism as systems, you have to compare their trajectories and where they’ve come from, not static snapshots.
