China is a very different society in a very different position. There was already a powerful and concentrated proletariat in Russia and that made it possible for it to create a class situation where the peasantry's petty bourgeois impulses weren't entertained as much. The peasantry itself also had a very long-standing communal culture that was only broken up relatively recently and that process was still going on, if in the last phases, in fact it was one of the reasons Bolsheviks took power. Chinese peasants had thousands of years of private property so that's not as easy to snuff out in a short amount of time. Soviet Union itself went along with different solutions in countries like Poland because that's the point of local parties, they adapt to local conditions.
That's not to mention the very different external situation. China managed to infiltrate the capitalist camp, "market socialism" could only provide the growth it did because of the relationship between China and imperialist powers. Very few socialist countries have that opportunity, Cuba and North Korea would have probably preferred to have the kind of relationship it has with the west but they are not given the choice. Neither was Soviet Union given a choice at any point in time and even with all the revisionist wrecking and capitalist destruction countries like Russia or Belarus still have a higher GDP PPP per capita (won't for long of course, but people should keep Chinese achievement in context).
The Soviet model is generally far better and far more applicable to most countries but China had an opportunity to industrialize in a different way and crush western production while at it, that's awesome and we should all be glad they did it.

No, it was a unique situation. China is a very unique country in many regards. Also people tend to overstate how important the market is in China or was during NEP, the party still always has the final say and does anything it deems fit like crashing the housing market on purpose and no doubt pissing tens to a hundred million antiproletarian elements that bought several apartments for the sole purpose of storing wealth.

>innovation (already addressed) incentives (not addressed)
like many pro capitalist arguments that devolve into "not real capitalism" when faced with reality, these models expect an ideal market that not only surely does not exist in the age of imperialism with monopolies, never actually existed historically either. monopoly capitalism also does not provide for innovation or inventives

This is still my magnum opus.

>>2615032
>Communism requires a certain mode of production you super retard
A communist society, the end goal of communism, does.
Communism, the movement, does not imply the immediate, magical transformation of a society's MoP. Absolute idealism.

Market socialism is the only kind of socialism that is not temporary if we look towards history. Full-blown communist efforts rarely last even a whole year

*le falling rate of profit faec*

>>2640862
wrong. people are their class interests, not their parents. people only tend to follow their parents thinking because they remain in the same class. lower birth rates in the proletariat lower porky's rate of profit by depriving him of the commodity labor power, which is the unique commodity exploitable for surplus value.

It depends. China has never been imperialist. So either China is not capitalist since its ruled by communists or "capitalism" can exist without imperialism.

>why doesn't capitalism just not do imperialism? Are they stupid? Why give the people of the world reasons to hate the system? Why not just pay them well and not do wars?
Jesus fucking christ, my man, please for the love of any god that has forsaken up, read Das Kapital. Economic systems producing their own contradictions by their very nature, and the resulting instability and inability to exist in stasis, is THE core tenant of Marxism. Arguably, that is the very very very core of Marxism, it's very essence. Everything follows from there.

>>2640901
>Economic systems producing their own contradictions by their very nature,

but what if they didn't tho, you can see the contradictions coming and prevent them.

>>2640923
>but what if they didn't tho, you can see the contradictions coming and prevent them.
>Just prevent monopoly formation bro. Who should prevent it? Oh the government run by the monopolies
>Just prevent a falling rate of profit caused by increased mechanization even though it's a prisoners dilemma in which any party that doesn't obey the stagnation law becomes richer and more powerfull
>Just don't saturate the market bro even though being the first to produce more makes you richer and more powerfull bro
>Just don't do imperialism bro even though it's super profitable for the first clique of capitalists to do so and also they can then bully the others that didn't
>Just don't pay bad wages even though it's profitable and falling rates of profit as said above makes this the only way not to lose profitability
Read the fucking book my guy. "Just prevent contradictions by seeing them coming" isn't something that has ever happened. If you believe such nonsense then do not even post on this website or call yourself a communist again.

Yes, it was called mercantilism.
But eventually your country runs out of cheap labor and cheap resources so you have to get it from somewhere else.

The problem is capitalists control the internet and can shut down all the “organic” content they don’t like and boost content that aligns with their own interests.

Trump ramps up Greenland threats and says US will intervene ‘whether they like it or not’
Donald Trump has doubled down on his threats to acquire Greenland, saying the US is “going to do something [there] whether they like it or not”. Speaking at a meeting with oil and gas executives at the White House, the US president justified his comments by saying: “If we don’t do it, Russia or China will take over Greenland. And we’re not going to have Russia or China as a neighbor.”

A USPS worker in Duluth, Georgia, has now contacted the rank-and-file committee about a horrific ongoing experience at the North Metro Processing & Distribution Center.

America’s neglect of Puerto Rico’s education system is at a breaking point
Imagine teaching in a classroom where rain pours through the ceiling, books are outdated and you have to buy your own supplies because you’d have to wait at least two months to get it from the central office. This is not a dystopian movie, but instead the reality for communities in the United States’ seventh-largest public education system: Puerto Rico. What would normally be considered unfathomable in any of the 50 states is the reality for over 240,000 public school students throughout the archipelago. I worked for the U.S. Department of Education, and after four years working in Puerto Rico, visiting dozens of schools and meeting with hundreds of students and teachers, I sadly realized what many of the island’s educational leaders long told me — that the federal government doesn’t care about Puerto Rico’s education system. For too long, the conversation about the Puerto Rico education system’s struggles has ignored a fundamental truth: U.S. government policies have systematically discriminated against Puerto Rican students. This reality is not incidental — it is a result of deliberate choices that Congress has made that define Puerto Rico’s relationship with the United States.

A Palestinian Family Tale Made Epic in All That’s Left of You
Writer-director and actor Cherien Dabis’s All That’s Left of You is an epic for the ages that follows a single Palestinian family from their 1948 expulsion from what is now Israel, to living in a West Bank refugee camp in the 1970s, to the Intifada in 1988, all the way to 2022. In doing so, Dabis has given the much-maligned and vilified Palestinians a human face by telling their side of a story that has long been dominated by the Israeli narrative. Portraying Hanan, the female lead, Dabis convincingly ages over the film’s time span from a woman in her thirties to an elder in the twilight of her life. As the world-weary Hanan takes stock of the years, she reflects the hardships and enduring humanity of her besieged people. As Dabis reveals in this interview, the final scenPost too long.

war is coming

The State Department told American citizens to "leave Iran now" on Feb. 6, as negotiators for both countries met in Oman amid President Donald Trump's recent threats of military action.
"U.S. citizens should expect continued internet outages, plan alternative means of communication, and, if safe to do so, consider departing Iran by land" to either Armenia or Turkey, according to the Feb. 6 notice.
"Leave Iran now. Have a plan for departing Iran that does not rely on U.S. government help," the notice warned.
