Well, you managed to make an even less intellectual comment as a reply, so kudos for that achievement.

So your position is that their system is “Fascist Corporatism,” but also… that’s fine, actually?

Great point. That was a mistake from my part. So what China is doing is indeed not fine at all, even though it kind of works for them.

Meep meep.

I’ve yet to find any such person who’s actually willing and capable to engage in a discussion of “what should they do/have done economically” as opposed to just bashing them.

I didn’t say they weren’t doing fine or that they shouldn’t be doing what they’re doing.

I just said that they’re not communists. This is not a bad thing! But lying about it is of course somewhat distasteful, especially for those people who think themselves as being communists.

What does it mean though? China’s gini coefficient is higher than Europe’s, and they have a growing number of billionaires.

What do they do in China, exactly? It looks like single-party fascist corporatism. If it’s communism, why do they have a rising number of billionaires and worse conditions for workers than many european countries?

Fascism vs communism is a prime example of a false dichotomy.

Sir, this is lemmy. Moderate politics are highly upvoted and deeply resented here.
