MODERATORS
I’ve literally read that book and watched his interviews.
I guess my main point is a western made video that seems to think china abandoned 5 year plans and believes conspiracies like Xi actually has a ton of secret financial assets, as well as not properly historically contextualizing the reform and opening up but opting for the ideological purism that Roland describes that westerners tend to have re:china I don't think offers much expert insight beyond peddling some myths and "viewing china with western eyes" as roland says. Deng def made rightist mistakes and hurt class struggle on the global front (Vietnam and such) but the reform and opening up era was certainly a good move for China and kept them on the road to socialism, a step made necessary by their "chinese characteristics" and not really comparable to Khrushchev's declaration of the end of class struggle
