China uplifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty, is on track to have one of the highest home ownership rates on the planet, and is steadily eliminating its dependence on fossil fuels. It has space age technology displayed in every city and a successful modern transport system (with an enormous high speed rail network).
100 years ago, China was a feudalist country ruled by warlords where a landlord could take his peasant's daughter as payment. Famines would come and kill several million people once or twice per generation. The British empire had weaponized opium to keep the country in a state of internal conflict and dependence.
What the hell kind of system can you think of, other than socialism, that could represent a greater success, put food in more hungry children's mouths, and elevate as many people to be citizens of a society that works in their favor? Is that not working? Does it need to produce sex robots or more funko pops for it to be a system that works in your view?
