    They’re not even against capitalism. They only pay lip service to anti-capitalism.

      Wrong.

      Is China State Capitalist?

      • The backbone of the economy is state ownership and socialist planning. 24 / 25 of the top revenue companies are state-owned and planned. 70% of the top 500 companies are State-owned. 1, 2 The largest bank, construction, electricity, and energy companies in the world, are CPC controlled entities, subject to the 5 year plans laid out by the central committee.
      • Workplace democracy in action in the CPC.
      • Is modern day china communist? Is it staying true to communist values?
      • Didn’t China go Capitalist with Deng Xiaoping? Didn’t it liberalize its economy? Is China’s drastic decrease in poverty a result of the increase in free market capitalist policies?
      • Is the CPC committed to communism?
      • The Long Game and Its Contradictions. Audiobook
      • The myth of Chinese state capitalism. Did Deng really betray Chinese socialism?
      • Tsinghua University- Is Socialism with Chinese Characteristics real socialism, or is it state Capitalism?
      • Isn’t China revisionist for having a capitalist sector of the economy, and working with capitalists? Why isn’t it fully planned like the USSR was?
      • Castro on why both China and Vietnam are socialist countries.
      • Roderic Day - China has billionaires.
      • What is socialism with Chinese characteristics (SWCC)?
      • How is SWCC not revisionist? How is it any different from Gorbachev’s market reforms?, 2

        I’m honestly impressed at the effort you put into this comment. It’ll be a while before I read through all these links, so I’m just gonna save this comment and come back to it occasionally.

        About 20% of my passive, after-tax income in retirement comes from Chinese companies.

        I own a small slice of private property, in many companies, in China. This morning while I was drinking tea and reading the news, and later when my wife and I went for brunch, and later while we were wandering through local galleries, and now while we’re making dinner, and later while we’re sleeping tonight, we will extract surplus value from Chinese workers to continue to fund our early retirement.

        All the links in the world won’t change that.

          What not reading anything Deng, Jiang, Hu or Xi wrote will do to a mf. Genuinely amazingly arrogant. Socialism is not Communism and due to living in reality pressing the magic communism button is unfortunately not possible thus we are stuck working through the transitionary period. I wish I had the confidence like you do to be so arrogant on something you know so little about.
