Mfs seem to have forgotten that Chinese GDP PPP is already higher than the US

Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
I don't feel like having a huge convo on this atm but thanks sincerely for your post which makes good points. I just don't want you casting your pearls before swines lol
One thing I will say is that the fact that finance capital was able to change the way the Russians calculated the size of their economies to include bullshit like stock markets before going on to raid them is exactly what I mean when I say it's a bullshit made-up propaganda measure. Maybe that's not it's sole intended purpose but it is definitely used for that purpose. A dollar spent on a factory in china is counted the same as a dollar made from creating NFT apes.
It's a fake measure with real consequences in other words. I also don't think western economists know their asses from their elbows, and spending 15 minutes in an econ 101 class illustrates why. Following that shit to it's conclusion basically leads you to ancapistan.
