Link so y’all don’t call me a lib again.
They also like V*ush. Think “eat the rich” is a metaphor for taxation. And say Tankies turned them from Anarcho-Communist to a Neoliberal. Think the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact meant the Soviet Union was fascist. Like, okay, how fucking twisted do your priorities have to be that you dunk on a state that hasn’t existed for 30 fucking years instead of, you know, your own state that is currently involved in who know how many fascist conspiracies. And that’s it. I’m not going any deeper into their timeline. I’m too tired.
I don’t know how much you’ve actually read, but the method is governance in China is not very far off from the models laid out by Marx and Lenin.
Both stated that the transitional state between capitalism and socialism would have a lot of similarities to capitalism, but with the important distinction that:
A) “From each according to their ability, to each according to their work” would be one of the guiding principles
B) The transitional state would take the form of the dictatorship of the proletariat, or a tool for class oppression directed at the bourgeoisie/capitalists*
C) The length of the transitional state is unknown and will last until it withers away due to not being needed anymore.
*Marx makes it clear that the oppression of the bourgeoisie is not the same as their extermination. The class will be liquidated, and the primary method for that is to abolish private property and bring it all under the control of the state. While they did reintroduce private ownership of factories in 2007, all land is still owned by the state and anyone using it for private reasons pays a ground rent to the state.
Most property in China is still either owned by the state or collectives.
