Your ignorance on China's government or the fact that you get your news from lefty echo chambers isn't CE's fault. Here's a good primer on China's communism if you're genuinely interested in being informed. https://foreignpolicy.com/2011/01/03/5-myths-about-the-chinese-communist-party/ China Is Communist in Name Only. Wrong. If Vladimir Lenin were reincarnated in 21st-century Beijing and managed to avert his eyes from the citys glittering skyscrapers and conspicuous consumption, he would instantly recognize in the ruling Chinese Communist Party a replica of the system he designed nearly a century ago for the victors of the Bolshevik Revolution. One need only look at the partys structure to see how communist and Leninist Chinas political system remains. Sure, China long ago dumped the core of the communist economic system, replacing rigid central planning with commercially minded state enterprises that coexist with a vigorous private sector. Yet for all their liberalization of the economy, Chinese leaders have been careful to keep control of the commanding heights of politics through the partys grip on the three Ps: personnel, propaganda, and the Peoples Liberation Army. So instead we should listen only to conservitive echo chambers like you do. Thanks for the heads up. I prefer to avoid echo chanbers all together. Next excuse? Not biased, but still made a bad take like "This is perfect communism if you completely ignore the economy". You know he meant more than this specific instance anyway. China's economy has been praised as a success for years without anyone using the C word, and now suddenly it's commie nirvana again. Maybe we should just call China shit and not toss them around like a football to mock our political rivals. Also, Joel, shut the fuck up. I'm sure there are some Chinese forums that would love to have you. --- http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/NIR_Hockey.png http://www.last.fm/user/hockeybub89/ <cite>hockeybub89 posted [p:928590193] in Weird how ...
