Extremely smart Hong kongers assassinated a hospital toilet with a bomb causing the emergency room to be evacuated. Revolution of our time https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/law-and-crime/article/3047744/home-made-bomb-explodes-hong-kong-caritas-medical

Excuse me, I just had too much yum cha on Sunday night and needed to make an emergency pit stop, the hospital assured me they had seen much worse before and that they would keep this OUT of the papers, this is all so very embarrassing

I don't really get the use of "developmentalist" as a pejorative. That's a kind of attitude you can only get from people from the Global North, who can't imagine poverty even as an academic exercise.

Developmentalism is an entire doctrine with pretty major issues. It's not just about having autocentered economic development, it's fetishizing it as the core policy target of a state. Don't forget, for example, that expanding production and distributing more goods to the people are contradictory goals, and fetishizing the former is bad for the latter, even though obviously more production leads to having more to distribute on the aggregate.

In this case, I got the feeling that the twitter person attacked Harvey for being so high on economics that he forgets to be socialist, much like Xi. Representing bourgeois marxism.

wolff's been a china tankie for as long as i've paid attention to him and has heralded them as a massive success story of socialism seemingly every time he talks about china

his biggest "criticism" is that china is state capitalist since he really likes to focus on the workplace democracy aspect

Honestly the Chinese model with democratic coops for the private section would be pretty baller. I know Huawei is technically a coop but it doesn't really operate like one.

The New York Times reported on a odd case of mistaken identity: Vatican officials had, in November that year, hung a painting of a man in a tunic who looked like a priest “a few yards from a portrait of John Paul VI in the Vatican’s press room.” However, someone had noticed that the painting was a copy of one of the most important propaganda images of the Cultural Revolution: Chairman Mao Goes to Anyuan (pictured above).

He's been talking about how impressive and well-managed China's growth in the last 3 decades has been for a while now, but whenever I've seen it, it's always been in the context of discussing environmental and social limits on growth in the long run. Dropping the second part would be a funny development for him.

I've never known if the Thatcherite take of 'the government can't pick winners' was meant to be moral or practical but turns out it's okay for the government to pick some winners.

Yes and that characterization is wrong when it comes to China, or Cuba. I doubt their sincerity. The fact one of the people replying "oh noooo" to that tweet is a Foreign Policy writer obsessed with Carl Zha tells me quite a lot.

I would urge reading of "three represents" theory, which is vital to understand modern Xi jiping thought

quote:

This experience and the historical experiences gained by the Party since its founding can be summarized as follows: Our Party must always represent the requirements for developing China's advanced productive forces, the orientation of China's advanced culture and the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the Chinese people. These are the inexorable requirements for maintaining and developing socialism, and the logical conclusion our Party has reached through hard exploration and great praxis.

Liberals and conservatives don’t conceive of China as like, an actual country with people and a government that does good things and does bad things and is a real place with a real history. They view them as The Bad Guys, the cruel villains opposed to the heroic US in their vision of history as a fantasy story.
