And is thus preventing China from becoming an epic Liberal Democracy, sparing the West from China’s rise.
Is there a version of horseshoe theory for when you get the right answer but the work is wrong?

He’s “right” for the wrong reasons, typical of reactionaries; Xi is a comparative moderate in the upper echelons of the Chinese govt. He’s a dedicated marxist theorist and a real believer. This is not true for others. There are plenty of liberals (i.e. hypercapitalists) and straight-up reactionary nationalists and more than a few of the latter are militarists in the PLA or with strong connections to it. People who would be even less hesitant to press the button, as it were. A coup or color revolution would by necessity mandate that one of these other factions comes out on top, and that’s where the real danger would come. Xi keeps these other factions in check, so it goes without saying that Xi is, in fact, the best possible person in government, for both practical and socialist reasons.
this dumbshit is so consistently wrong that I think he gets paid for this
Lmao these people really are the last generation of neoliberals and it’s all their fault. They’ve somehow convinced themselves, after years of successful propaganda and CIA sabotage, that communism inherently leads to failure and therefore should be encouraged. Trust in the Five Eyes organizations, who do the actual legwork in destroying communism, is secondary to that now. Imagine how they’ll sound the moment their global espionage network goes down and only that encouragement remains.
