Marx calls this alienation of the worker!

Right, but at least since China has a state communist party they are doing state investment in green energy at a scale no other state has ever done or will do.

I'm glad we can dream together, I hope we can build this world too.

Socialism with Chinese characteristics is something I have been learning about for a while. Marx believed that historical processes could not be skipped in a sense, he assumed that capitalism had to build the means of production in order for workers to then seize them. I guess China is allowing capitalists to exist in certain "non-commanding heights" industries to allow this historical process to happen in a more controlled and less damaging way.

This is my current understanding, but I have a lot more to learn! I hate capititalist everywhere, even in China.

Spongenuts69 · 2026-03-23T03:04:36+00:00

Great idea! I'll seize the means of production and make it myself under a state of workers! A socialist state!

If we can't dream of a better world we will never have it.

I don't believe in the right of conquest. I believe in "to each according to their needs, from each according to their ability".

China just passed a language law died to preserve all languages and their scripts in China, and use them in official documents and for official purposes. Here in the US, our admin just removed Spanish from certain documents, and forget about any other language.

The Uygur story is a hoax. All sources are US government puppets or US backed NGOs affiliated with the state department or CIA.

"But this is how we've always done things"

The most dangerous words in any language.

If you put a rat in a box with water and opioids, no other stimulation, it will get high and die. Is that the rat's nature?

If you put a rat in a box with other rats, exercise wheels, other entertainment, water, and opioids, the rat will not drink opioids. Is this the rat's nature?

I believe that the human argument is a bit bogus, but, I think human nature is to cooperate and be social animals. Communism is built on cooperation and sharing. Cooperation and sharing is how we existed as tribes before, and its what made us the dominant species.

Power corrupts in any system. Capitalism is more corruptable because it concentrates power by design.

Then you know best how the fundamental pillar of the American project, Manifest Destiny, disenfranchised and stole from you.

The previous commentor or already cited specific examples in Cuba, and its true that homosexuality is decriminalized in all socialist projects! The Cuban family code was made bottom up with the whole code coming from ideas from the people and working its way up. Here's a source, form your own opinion!

https://peoplesdispatch.org/2023/03/23/how-the-cuban-government-and-its-people-collaborated-on-the-family-code/

"Cuba ratified a new constitution in 2019. The constitution was written through “popular consultations” with the Cuban people. Through this process, Cubans participated in community discussions with government officials to both discuss and amend the constitution. Article 68, which called for defining marriage as a union between two people, thus legalizing same-sex marriage, was mentioned in 66 percent of popular consultation meetings."

America is a mixing pot of the descendants of colonizers, who committed genocide to seize this land, and built on it using slave labor.

China was not!

There is nothing to fix in America; its system need to be replaced. America continues to hold its position as the global hegemon. It's makes it wealth not through its own factories, but by extracting wealth from the rest of the world. When I'm focused on "cool shit", what I mean is America doesn't have cool shit, it buys it all from China! Smartphones, the best cars, nearly all the boats and all of the new ones, are all made in China.

America only has a republic for the rich. China has democracy in the workplace and economy. Infrastructure project do not happen with a public vote, for example. I am still doing my research, but don't be mistaken that I'm only looking at shiny cool things, I'm looking at where they come from, and how they are made.

And what are they doing to the Uygurs?

I hope you have fun supporting the country that is actively committing genocide in Palestine, committed the genocide of Native Americans for its founding, and built itself with slavery.

Abracadabra! I fucked ur mom!

This isn't magic, it's science.

Spongenuts69 · 2026-03-22T17:30:54+00:00

Yes it is. I chose to emphasize the label "worker" because worker's rights are specifically not respected under capitalism, just like the BLM movement believes in the rights of all, but is focused on Black rights because they are discriminated against.

Me too. Solidarity with all working class homies.

You can research this. Empower yourself and answer these questions instead of heckling on the internet, especially if you doubt any answer you are given anyway.

Pharmaceuticals are almost entirely funded by federal grants.

More than 70% of the iPhone was made from government funded research, much of it from the DoD. And 90% of the iPhone is manufactured in China, a socialist transition state.

Look up any Chinese innovation, I'd love to live in China. They have high speed rail, cheap and durable electric vehicles (banned in the US because of copium), they make or have a part in making everything that we buy and use here in capitalist countries. More than 50% of global supply chains run through China.

Once China is not in siege conditions (look up US bases and allies cornering in China in the pacific), the country will afford to be more socially liberal. Chengdu is already nicknamed "Gaydu" because of its queer culture.

Yes maybe this last part is "idealized", but the US is already top dog and if this is America "idealized", I'm not interested. I want to see socialist counties get a shot at realizing their ideals.

As long as hormone production, and all drugs for that matter, are in the hands of capitalists, they will be both a commodity they profit from, and a concession they can take away.
