Increasingly common these days, many people are saying the same. The specter is haunting!

Revolution happens in crisis, it isn’t something you can force. That being said, as the US Empire is deteriorating, this makes it more and more likely to hit a crisis that can turn into revolution every passing day.

Literacy rate by country, 2026. China is at 97%. Get out of the 20th century and turn off Fox News.

Roland Boer’s work is useful because it’s meticulously well-researched and sourced. Unfortunatley, for someone actively hostile to the idea of democracy in China, simple works are easily tossed aside as “propaganda.”

Do you have a counterpoint, or are you just going to cope? Professor Roland Boer’s work is meticulously researched and very well-sourced.

I like it when the working classes in China wield the state against capitalists and fascists, and to ensure that social surplus is directed towards social ends above all else.

Maybe don’t have such a terminally negative outlook?

Marxists understand nuance and that two things can be bad. The problem pointed out by this meme is that the “social credit score” system of China as you know it does not exist, while credit score in the west absolutely does and is far more wide-reaching.

No, it isn’t. Public ownership is the principle aspect of the economy and the working classes control the state, it’s socialist. What do you think socialism and capitalism are? Vibes?

It’s good for the working classes to wield state authority against capitalists and fascists. To not do so would be to allow capitalism to reform, and the alternative is capitalist authority used against the working classes.

No, it isn’t, ir’s pointing out “false nuance” as I described, like both-sidesing the genocide of Palestine.
