Struggle sesh time
Reminds me of the "what headline, if it was true, would cause the biggest struggle session?"
My answer is now is "At his tearful visit to the National Jeffery Epstein Memorial in London, Xi Declares Epstein 'Final Victim of Communism,' Balkanizes China"
I for one am shocked that a nation open for foreign investment would have a leader be polite to a prominent businessman.
I expect a nationstate to be just as radical as me a person on the internet and the Chinese decision to not obey my whims as a person who does not live in or have any stake in the success of China is deeply disappointing
Not sure why people are surprised. China has been reaching out to American business interests for... a while now. So this is nothing new.
Now, whether or not it's just the CPC being sincere and abandoning international class struggle or if it's simply meant to be a pragmatic policy to sow division within the American ruling class and to kick the can of economic decoupling down the line is where the actual struggle sesh would be. I myself have been leaning towards the latter nowadays but I'm still not over the fence.
Chuds lighting their computers on fire in defiance of the See See Pee would be pretty funny.
This is bullshit. I will destroy my Steve Balmer dakimakura so help me god
Mine screams "DEVELOPERS!" every time I give it a tight squeeze
One day I'll share my collection of communist thinker figurines. I swear Marx's removable shirt, underneath which lies an impeccable sculpted manbod, is absolutely not sexual in any way!
Can't switch to Apple, they're even more lib than Microsoft.
Soon there will be explicitly chud Linux distros.
edit: oh shit I should make that and charge for it. Should I call it MAGAOS, or QOS?
Maybe a chud FreeBSD-based distro, say it stands for “free big strong Donald”.
I think QOS has legs, particularly if you can find a way to work in enough Easter eggs
"First you strike against Apple Daily and now Apple? This is why communism no food!"
China has been de-windowfying their country for a little bit now
Probably trying to please Gates so he doesn't feel threatened until he's no longer needed

The thing is that it's not clear cut either way, the party has many factions with in it, and it's certainly arguable that genuine communists are a minority within it in the modern day (among the elected, from what I understand, dedicated and educated communists are very rare among the membership).
That's close to what I believe. The minority of CPC-Left is likely compromised of many of the Old Guard and an increasing number of younger idealistic Communists, so while they do have some degree of influence which has grown since Deng's tenure, they're still subservient to the party at large.
Xi himself and his faction within the center that currently holds the reins are harder to pinpoint. They've made decent strides in preparing China for an actual transition to a socialist economy should they mean it (poverty alleviation, developmentalism, weathering the decline of the Imperial Core, the immense world economic leverage, disenfranchisement of the Bourgeoisie, etc) but whether or not it's sincere in the long run and not simply just a solidification of a new technocratic system won't really be clear for a while. I don't begrudge other comrades for being skeptical but I've been frequently asking myself how a Communist Party should act alternatively in an age of suffocating unipolar hegemony and been having a hard time coming up with something concrete.
Regardless, conditions for international socialism to take root have looked brighter today than since the collapse of the USSR. The US, while still the entrenched world power, can no longer act with the same impunity that it did before China's ascension.
I just want to make it clear that I spent 5 minutes looking through the emoji list to try to find an appropriate reaction and i could not find what I was looking for
I mean he has called Kissinger an old friend too. China is just full of contradictions ever since the Sino-Soviet split.
China is just full of contradictions
Mmm very dialectical
Do what we tell you to do, or we will fucking murder you!

Just getting close enough to see what size neck he has :gui-better:
