"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

What do they think about Xi's views on Deng Xioping?
That it makes sense that Xi would be supportive of Deng while also improving upon the direction he took the CPC. I think my friend just felt that while market reform was needed for China, Deng's policies did not need to be so laxxed towards corporations. "You didn't need to let them dump waste wherever they wanted".
I have a cousin with a similiar perspective as a "libertarian socialist." He doesn't like China perse but he acknowledges they are better for the world then the US and are therefore preferable. Also that they do a lot of cool scientific progress and that Mao was correct about landlords.
He also just fucking hates farmers. Not farm workers mind you, but small farm owners.
