Well the world is almost all neoliberal hell so maybe that'd be better than supporting a fascistic hellscape because they have socialist aesthetics.
I support Cuba and various socialist movements... I don't pretend Xi is a well-meaning person.
Nothing about Xi indicates that he isn't well meaning, and much more importantly the lives of hundreds of millions of people have been vastly improved during his governance as head of a dedicated communist party.
If you think the CCP is genuinely dedicated to communism I cannot take you seriously.
It's CPC and of course they are, there's no reason to believe otherwise apart from being a dumb little racist baby who thinks only white people can do socialism properly.
What are you on about, it's both?
Maybe the fact it's a dictatorship with no power to the people? Tell me, what Chinese factory workers own their means of production?
Call me a racist? Cuba and Burkina Faso are true attempts at socialism, while the USSR under Stalin was not (Lenin was good though).
CPSU, CPV, CPK, etc.. CCP is a weird, racist neologism coined by the west to emphasize the "Chinese" part of the moniker. CPC is the standard nomenclature.
Lol ok, reaching.
communism is an internationalist movement. why would we ever put nationality before the fact that we're communists?
Also, you really thinking having "Chinese" before "Communist" is racist? If anything the west has fearmongered the word "communist" far more than the word "Chinese"
That is literally the stated intent given for the name, yes. Emphasizing Chinese is the point. If there wasn't a reason to call it CCP they would just call it CPC. Goddamn you are a gullible toad lmao
I've wondered if part of it too is to trick boomers into confusing it with CCCP as their lead-addled brains turn into mush.
yes, older media reported the party as the CPC. restyling it as the CCP is relatively recent and coincides with the drumbeat of aggression between the west and China.
It's worth noting that early on the official English name was actually CCP, probably just following the generic rules of English with putting adjectives before the noun, before it was revised to CPC.
Because they're not real communists.
in what way is your judgment relevant in this context?
Excuse me but as a westerner CatholicSocialist knows a thing or two more about building communism than a hundred million Chinese communists in power, it's due to his superior skull shape.
What makes you think I'm not Asian?
It's pretty obvious.
You don't think most Asian-Americans hate the CCP (or CPC or whatever)?
So you're American.
I'm not telling you who or what I am.
Yeah you are.
Cracker
I think it's time to post hog.
You first, let's see it lib
More than enough of the world has seen my wenis. It's pretty clear that what the people really want, right now, is to see your dick.
I haven't and I really, really want to. How many inches?
Homosexuality and lust is haram in your "religion" so imma have to report you to Jesus for that, sorry.
Show me in WHAT relevant scripture homosexuality is considered a sin. You do realize Leviticus doesn't apply to modern Christians? The old testament laws died with Jesus.
Sure thing bud, even though despite all that most modern ~~Christians~~ heretics think gays should be stoned to death. Still filing a report to your demiurge for Lust, sorry man.
I don't necessarily support the majority of Christian institutions. I support Catholicism, but I don't agree with most Catholic preachers. Calling homosexuality a sin is as false as saying wearing mixed fabrics or shaving is a sin (which the old testament also banned). Leviticus is not the word of God.
Well I hope you can explain all that to big G upstairs after I file my report for Lust. One of them 7 deadly ones at that, the demiurge isn't gonna be happy with you.
What difference would that even make?
You clearly don't know a damn thing about socialism that you didn't learn from breadtube
So you want Xi to press the communism button?
On a serious note, through a communist party controlled state, Chinese workers clearly have greater control over the means of production than workers anywhere else in the world. That's why they were able to use the resources their own labor created to do things like have an effective covid response.
What makes you think this? Is that why their benefits and conditions are worse than succdem Europe?
China was profoundly underdeveloped, and only began to develop in earnest after a revolution in the 1940s. We'll never know why it's different than Europe. That's a really good question.
