They have implemented a type of a mixed state that has both socialist and capitalist parts
Personally, I find it very similar to corporatism.
I would describe the CCP political ideology as "authoritarianism" and the economic ideology as "corporatism".
I don't really see anything about the communes, the economy is not socially owned (not run by cooperatives) and the social aspects are veeery limited.
It depends on your POS operator. Looking around commissions are usually between 0.5% and 2.5% depending on the card, where it comes from, the circuit, whether it's consumer or commercial etc...
the Tibetans govern themselves within a system similar to that under the Qing
The King dynasty, also known as the Qing Empire, a literal theocratic empire whose emperor had a mandate from heaven.
Btw, these excuses of being "just a protectorate", "for their own good", "to protect them" etc are very common excuses for imperialists to enforce their own will. Other common excuses are "historical reasons", "ethnic reasons" or "national security".
Conquest is conquest, subjugation is subjugation. If it's ok for me, but not for thee, then you are a hypocrite.
Tibet is a Chinese imperial holding because they took away their right for self determination.
What do you consider China's imperial holdings?
Tibet
Also because Russia is now a semi-fascist far right state, as much as the US, if not worse. No idea how it happened that both self proclaimed communists and far right governments will fight and die for Putin.
Maybe the extremists are not those who support human rights, but those who support authoritarianism, from both sides of the spectrum.
It only took a century and the death of the supreme leader.
The reality is that communist countries have historically been very conservative in their social policies, and most of them are still today. Even former communist countries are, generally speaking, more conservative as a whole than their more democratic neighbors.
Even if the government is funded by money printed by the central bank, it would still be funded with "your money". Every dollar printed dilutes your money by that same amount, ie it's like a much more subtle tax that doesn't follow any of the principles of proportionality, everyone pays the same (except those with little to no liquidity and everything invested, so it's really a tax on the poor through inflation)
Surface? That's the term we use in Italian ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

BEV busses need much larger batteries, while trolley busses can get away with a very small battery
Do forklifts have PDO now?

No guarantee it won't involve another person stepping up against trump, seizing power and then holding onto it. Usually that's how that happens
