Sorry, could someone explain this to me?
The joke is that people say that some of us defend China because we are paid by the CPC. However, we defend China because we are communists and China is a socialist country that is helping the global south. We defend the international proletariat because we are communists not because we are paid.
Even if that's true, isn't it better for countries in the global South to have multiple options instead of being forced to accept whatever conditions are imposed on them by the IMF?
If China is socialist, then Donald Trump is a virgin.
Oh my, sweet and soft virgin Trump, I can't even imagine. 🤣
Is China socialist? In China, we usually don't say it that way. We say "socialism with Chinese characteristics," which is a system more "suitable for China's conditions." We believe China is in the primary stage of socialism, where the key focus is on liberating and developing productive forces. You might think China isn't socialist because it has wealth gaps, labor-capital conflicts, and materialistic marriages (currently, the "Fat Cat Incident" is a hot topic in China). However, China is also working on poverty alleviation (not just distributing food like relief, but arranging jobs and creating positions for poor households) and promoting "common prosperity" (when the government wants companies to help advance "common prosperity," if they refuse, the government makes things difficult for them).When a country has nothing, how can it redistribute wealth? The current situation in China can be summarized by a statement from the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China: "The principal contradiction in Chinese society is that between the people's ever-growing needs for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development." This contradiction exists between the eastern and western regions, urban and rural areas, and high-end high-salary and low-end low-salary jobs, among other aspects.
I think the joke is that you seem to actually think that they are communist. Nothing wrong with being communist yourself, but their government is communist in name alone.
China is the most raging capitalist country i know
Are you a Maoist?
I'm a maoam
Do you only know of 1 country?
No, i know more but china perfects the capitalism. Everybody does everything to make themself as rich as possible by any means.
America doesn't have large factories in which workers work for a few dollars (and by that i mean something like 100 dollars) per month and have to work long shifts.
America doesn't have cheap and life threatening materials either.
All of that is just an outright lie
no, you see, they say they're communists, so it must be true. just like the national socialists are... wait
If I could get paid every time I said something good about the CCP, I would be rich by now. However, on the Chinese internet, there are people who offer 3 RMB per post to delete comments that praise the CCP. 🤣
*CPC
I'm sorry that I didn't realize the difference between CPC and CCP at first. Now I understand that CPC is the official term used by China, while CCP is more commonly used in Western countries. Since my English proficiency is limited to reading, I used ChatGPT to help with the translation, which caused some errors. In China, the CPC has a more down-to-earth nickname among the people: "土共" (Tugong), which translates to "Dirt Communists" or "Local Communists." This nickname is widely used because of the CPC's extensive and profound grassroots foundation, and its pragmatic, farmer-like image.
