unless China saves the day which could happen but it’s the timing and it’s still frustrating for someone like me who believed we’d respond to this threat as a people by tossing liberalism the fuck out the window months ago when their democracy was exposed as a fucking sham by failing to expell trump and friends from power or protecting innocent americans from the fascist police state but instead of breaking our collective chains and taking our destiny into our own hands we settled back into our stations and bent the knee to fear and delusions.
And how the fuck is China going to save you?
This site's obsession with China and trying to paint them out to be this communist utopia that they absolutely are not, is the most annoying thing on here.
Yeah like, I won't lie, I prefer them to the US. I think they're on a better trajectory and they're doing a version of capitalism that is more sustainable, better for more people, etc.
But they don't give a FUCK about your working class ass, they aren't really all that communist and they aren't interested in spreading the revolution. Notice how they support the state against the socialists in struggles all across Asia, from India to Bhutan to Nepal to the Philippines. Just like the US, they're near the head of the global capitalist machinery so it's in their interests to maintain that machinery.
It's really just a slightly more plausible version of "I support Comrade Assad in his struggle against reactionary western imperialism" thing. China aint your friend, at best they're doing a slightly less myopic and shortsighted version of capitalism in preparation for "something" later, at worst they're just another neoliberal oligarchy.
I'm deeply confused as to how you could read my comment and think that's what I meant
They're able to plan much farther ahead than western unregulated investor-driven capital is, and the CCP remaining in their position of supremacy over the oligarchs means they're held much more firmly to the law and to the expectation that they improve the country in some way.
China recently told their military to prepare for war. Unrelated but still relivent is the 2020 military parade in the DPRK showed off some impressive firepower including the worlds largest ICBMs capable of reaching the US mainland. Comrades have never lost a war and the US has never won a war when going against China. Hope. It's not an obsession for me, I'm actually on the fence on China personally although I'm sure your observation excludes just me as your pool of experience

By being more oppressive?
Sure I guess, but the US can catch up in that department.
