The take I saw this week, from a discussion I had in relatively polite company:
"The problem with society these days is everyone is so selfish..."
(wait for it)
"... they only think about themselves and what they can get out of everyone else..."
(wait for it)
"...humanity needs a course correction..."
(uh oh)
"... humans need to stop asking for handouts and start asking what they can do for humanity..."
(appetizer, and now main course)
"... and we need to believe in ELO~N so ELO~N keeps believing in us!" :so-true:
:agony-yehaw:
but like why does a reliance on China factor in at all in terms of it ?
reliance on the world's only socialist superpower being a factor in future socialism? Idk can't imagine why
but like why tho, other than hand waving
I would appreciate an answer if you have the time, I would like to understand why you think this
gosh I can't imagine why a socialist superpower would ever pressure anyone to also adopt socialist tendencies especially after the decline of U.S. hegemony
why do I need to write out some nerd essay on this
But tbf here, the CPC has been explicit in not being interested in pressuring and exporting socialism, banking on them changing course on that after some arbitrary point of declining US hegemony is basically a guess.
Tbf though I shouldn't have to write an essay about what is indeed a guess when Other User has yet to argue what countries would be more likely to go socialist than one where the communist party still gets, what, a third of the fucking vote with explicit nostalgia for the communist period :shrug-outta-hecks:
the answer is I don't, I'm going to sleep

The capitalists are afraid it's already happening. Look at the meds hand wringing about the global south applying the "Chinese model".
It should be easy to explain if it's so obvious so idk why it would need to be an essay
