I mean, I'm a baby Marxist with a child's understanding of economics but the CPCs role always struck me as a midwife for the SEA Capitalist mode of production era. They saw what happened to the USSR and determined the conditions for a strict state economy didn't exist. Hope it works out!

Lol, America's history is defined by it's policy to only support foreign democratic movements when it aligns with it's own economic interests. But I'm sure HK will be different.

The Epoch Times youtube commercials are great. Unabashedly marketed towards geriatric Americans who haven't seen a Chinese person irl since the Chosin Reservoir Campaign.

Ardennes posted:Admittedly the 1950s were when the geopolitical competition of the Cold War was the highest and really the detente period only ended after the Cuban Missile crisis, but also at the same time the Soviet Union was still a considerably weaker power than the US in economic terms. So we'll be on the losing side of a Franco-Prussian war redux when Sun King Baron Trump declares war on Super China in 2040. Hopefully I can pick up Mandarin before then lol

The governments have good relations sure but anti-Chinese (especially anti-Indo-Chinese) sentiment and crime is still a huge deal, at least in Jakarta. Local officials/police are still running extortion schemes on Indo-Chinese owned businesses.

SSJ_naruto_2003 posted:I'll be honest, I think it's pretty hilarious that this colonial power with access to ten million square KM of exclusive ocean access is getting mad at China for trying to use the ocean. I think China has under a million square km of eez even though their coastline is huge. To the USN's credit, they know that controlling trade routes is their true mission. Since Perry opened Japan in the 19th century, the USN's pacific fleet has been capital's enforcer in the region.

The American left intelligentsia being a bunch of trots will always be funny to me. Like, I don't blame the folks in the 30s/40s for backpedaling after the purges but come on jack it's the 21st century now. That being said, Trotskys house in Mexico City is a must visit, incredible city too.

At some point, I think, all (White) Westerners trying to comprehend modern China are going to fall into the "Han Chinese are the white people of Asia" trap. It's like holding green tinted glass up to your eye and observing aloud that the sky must be green.

Some Guy TT posted:never forget that germany has the lowest working hours in europe despite everyone including the germans themselves believing in the stereotype that germans are ultradisciplined super employees who never sleep My work is a supplier for the German/French flying bus company and its insane how often these guys go on holiday. Really seems like Gunther and Francois are in Nice or Karlovy Vary for 4 months out of the year. Meanwhile I've maxed my vacation hours and can't use them because I'll get scolded if I'm away from my desk for more than 48 hours.

Afghanistan is still probably going to be a proving ground for PMCs and JSOC. It'd be wild to see PLA in country providing security for Chinese infrastructure projects. Close to 0 percent chance of this happening but just imagine the western Lib and Leftist crys of Chinese imperialism lmao.

I think Mearsheimer has a pretty good handle on how to interpret and predict the actions of the US, and by proxy the West in general. What I don't get is his insistence on mapping his theories 1 to 1 onto China. I've had his book on the Israel lobby on my reading list for a while, might have to dip into it soon. edit: is Mearsheimer considered a DC insider? His attitude in that is video is annoying af Gorman Thomas has issued a correction as of 18:44 on Sep 16, 2021 |

Deified Data posted:At the end of the day it doesn't matter how many words you expend towards saying it, "China is a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie with only aesthetic gestures towards socialism" will only ever read to me like "the CCP is lying about aspiring towards socialism for political continuity and the 90+% of working Chinese who approve of them are too stupid or brainwashed to to tell the difference". People never say what they mean, I wonder why.

Barry Naughton's Wikj posted:His 1995 book "Growing Out of the Plan: Chinese Economic Reform, 1978–1993" won the Masayoshi Ohira Memorial Prize. He stated that the Chinese economic reform was accomplished without a grand vision. Rather, it was the result of a mix between laissez-faire and experimentation with business incentives by the government. Are you loving kidding me Barry

Flavahbeast posted:why do the trade unions oppose the Chinese companies? I would think they would welcome new foreign investments in their country That's kinda the point of trade unions tho, raise a stink to keep capital honest. Don't take anything a capitalist says for granted, everything should be a negotiation.
