Yi Long Ma became a communist in childhood, partly because of the glorious Soviet space program. Unfortunately, South African communists quickly became revisionist and the Soviet Union collapsed, so he silently worked on developing productive forces in the banking industry with Pyotr Thilov and invested the money into electric cars and other important things no capitalist wanted to develop. Yi Long Ma is however a revisionist himself since he tried to make the united states wither away when it was not possible. He is also an accelerationist who believes that the political world will bounce into socialist revolution after right-wingers ruin all their credibility.

There's this guy called Nick Land he's british and says Neo-China will enslave society and that's a good thing, he lives in Shanghai right now, he used to binge methamphetamines, I don't know how if he has an access to them in China right now but the least he should do is beg for mild socialdemocratic reformist measures to stop persecution of cannabis users in China.
He edited this book.
Anyway, its a bit like the CPC and the NPC and all organs of China are a lot of conservative assholes or mini Hitlers who yawn at perfectly sensible people wanting to use drugs to not have to suffer, because I guess China is perfect heaven on earth and if you have problems in China you must be reactionary or something, so its fine to work 50 hour shifts at the barbie doll factory and get cucked by your 5th wife over an internet influencer doing dances with to the sound of trap beats and throwing handguns. Its just the kind of society you have to experience because in it of itself its conservative against drugs and you have to be conservative too because that's what communism is or else you're going to get called CIA a lot. This is all to show solidarity with the nationalists or patriotic socialists in one nation that have a plan and again, if you doubt this you are CIA, so you have to stay sober or go to prison because marijuana is a dangerous narcotic drug that kills brain cells and causes you to kill people and destabilize society as sourced by the NHS, DEA.gov, and a bunch of other government health agencies and UNODC, and its completely sensible for a Marxist-Leninist (a person exactly like Marx and Lenin) to source them because its absolute truth and the western governments can never lie about healthcare and the eastern governments are totally not copying their policies, that's why they care so much about your health that you have to go to prison and become unemployed then socially ostracized or maybe die in a standoff.

Cannabis smokers are like " I wanna take the edge off" like whut the heell they don't want to have to think about getting cucked / cheated, the monotonous work cycle, cybersecurity paranoia and they want to have fun in their free time? That sounds awful, they probably want to rape and kill people and simply hide it under a disguising addiction habit regardless if they don't even get to smoke one joint because they don't want to break the law, its the thought of challenging the divine law of the people by the people that is chinese (eurasia, third world and the progressive eastern races) that shows they are actually western liberal addicts already addicted and can only be fixed by police action. Retarded degenerate druggies are holding back communism from destroying Israel and America! Mossad destabilizes China with THC and China is like this gigachad sober and alcoholic conservative and yet progressive society that will NOT murder fags while liberal westerners are ungrateful that disguising candidates for addiction are being punished by the people's police? What else are we gonna do if the people's police don't punish cannabis users, China will literally become degenerate! I had this one friend who smoked weed and he became a degenerate trans faggot, under internet communism I get to be as chauvinist as possible without getting booed and right now trans and fags are too popular to call them degenerate so its better to write that China tolerates them so they should be grateful, drugs are still taboo so its fine to call all drugs degenerate lumpen and no, I don't care what different drugs are, anything that you can have fun with is degenerate and you should go to jail for it except alcohol and tobacco because its the material conditions and the culture. Conservativism in society is like collectivism that's like communism while liberalism is like individualism like degenerate weed smoking prostitutes which should be arrested and killed on a whim like Catholic Communist Comrade Duterte did. The people's war on drugs is good and the war on drugs is good and based and communism / socialism, its good to kill people for having fun the wrong way because the wrong way is harmful because I say so and my sources which are absolute truth say they will destroy communism if they aren't killed because communism's fate depends on killing cannabis users and other drug users because they're like degenerate and bourgeois decadent and lumpen while the conservative and patriotic socialist nationalists are like the proletariat, the workers, a cannabis user is literally incapable of work and is probably a liberal CIA nazi fascist? This is all true by the way, unironically based and I'm 18 I say based a lot and play videogames and I'm in this group we live in the US (Lord Mao forgive us for being born in the imperial core) its called Marxist-Leninist-Stalinist-Maoist-Dengpilled Party of the Global South, we're like 3 people (AS OF NOW) and are a catholic communist Palestinian nationalist PFLP DFLP China anti-trot, anti-ultras, anti-ancom, anti-leftcom, anti-heresy discord server that's straight edge and based and the west is jew so if you want to join us too bad because like better to be a son of God than a dog of Odin.

>>2288713
ok poor lil retard


Copying the response here, someone who has some passing knowledge of Chinese economy please tell me whatever it is correct or not:

1. The Role of the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC)

China’s NDRC (国家发展和改革委员会) is the closest modern equivalent to the Soviet Gosplan, but it operates in a market-driven context. Unlike North Korea’s rigid command economy, the NDRC:

Sets strategic goals (e.g., decarbonization, tech self-sufficiency).

Approves major infrastructure projects (high-speed rail, chip fabs).

Manages macroeconomic policy (inflation control, supply chain stability).

Key Difference from Soviet Planning: The NDRC does not micromanage factory output—most firms (even state-owned ones) respond to market demand.
2. Five-Year Plans (Now Called "Five-Year Guidelines")

China still uses Five-Year Plans (FYPs), but they are now indicative (suggestive) rather than mandatory:

Soviet-style: "Factory X must produce 10,000 tractors."

Chinese-style: "We will prioritize agricultural modernization; subsidies and loans will support tractor R&D."

Example: The 14th FYP (2021-2025) focuses on:
✔️ Tech independence (semiconductors, AI).
✔️ "Dual circulation" (reducing reliance on exports).
✔️ Carbon neutrality (peak emissions by 2030).
3. How Production is Actually Determined

Unlike the USSR or North Korea, most production decisions are market-driven, but the state influences them through:
A. State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs)

SOEs (like Sinopec, China Mobile) dominate strategic sectors (energy, telecoms, defense).

They follow state directives but also compete for profit.

B. Industrial Policy & Subsidies

The state picks winners (e.g., EVs, solar panels) via:

Cheap loans (from state banks).

Tax breaks (for chipmakers).

Local gov’t support (free land for factories).

C. Market Mechanisms

Private firms (Huawei, BYD, Alibaba) respond to consumer demand, not quotas.

Prices are mostly set by supply/demand (except in utilities, fuel).

4. Resource Allocation: Planning vs. Markets
AspectSoviet Model (Gosplan)Chinese Model (NDRC)
Production QuotasMandatory for all factoriesOnly for SOEs in key sectors
PricesFixed by the stateMostly market-determined
Private SectorBanned (mostly)Dominates consumer goods
InnovationWeak (no competition)Strong (market incentives)
5. Challenges in China’s System

Overcapacity: State subsidies can lead to gluts (e.g., steel, solar panels).

Debt Risks: SOEs borrow heavily, creating zombie firms.

Market Distortions: Favoring national champions can hurt efficiency.

Key Takeaway

China’s system is neither Soviet-style planning nor Western capitalism—it’s a hybrid:
✅ Central planning for big-picture goals (tech, green energy).
✅ Market competition for day-to-day production.

This model has driven China’s growth but faces strains (debt, trade wars, slowing growth). Would you like a deeper dive on any specific aspect?

>>2288722
Sounds about right.
>Prices are mostly set by supply/demand (except in utilities, fuel).
>4. Resource Allocation: Only for SOEs in key sectors
These are key. Instead of
>Soviet-style: "Factory X must produce 10,000 tractors."
>Chinese-style: "We will prioritize agricultural modernization; subsidies and loans will support tractor R&D."
What that means is state directed resource allocation for raw inputs, to ensure there is an abundance of what is needed to reach the goals, and then supply/demand and market competition drive down the prices of end products. I like the more hands off approach, harnessing the power of capitalist production and confining it in a small box so it makes what you want.

>>2288722
>The state picks winners

Is it the same as USA buying milk and storing up cheese - all to save American dairy farmers - or not?

>Debt Risks: SOEs borrow heavily, creating zombie firms.


Also, AI, just like ordinary authoritative Western economics, have no goddamn clue how Chinese economy works. This doesn't mention at all how Chinese SOEs have mandatory plans passed to them from local governments, how they follow FYP as a law, just like in USSR, how extra profits go to local budgets, etc etc.

This whole "planning for state, market for rest" is just early USSR.

Corps need the state's permission to merge, and it's this process of mergers and acquisitions that have allowed the creation of super monopolies which are literally too big to fail. It's not any different from "picking winners."

>>2289232
Except Chinese SOEs are actual winners, and not losers like American companies or farmers

First important distinction between Chinese and American monopolies - Chinese ones are SOEs, they follow the plan as a law, and are subject to fines, admin measures and jail time for failing the plan. They don't just sell everything they produce to the state, and state has to buy it - which results in hilarious shit like state imposing onto the schools the requirement to give kids milk every meal, as well as state running "generic" pro-milk propaganda on TV without featuring any distinct brand; Chinese companies fulfill state orders, they participate in the planning, sure, but they are not private enterprise offloading it's problems onto the whole of society

China’s foreign ministry warns that the Taiwan question is “the first red line that must not be crossed in China-U.S. relations.”
Ministry spokesman Lin Jian urged Washington to abide by three China-U.S. joint communiques “to stop arms sales to Taiwan and stop creating factors that could cause tensions in the Taiwan Strait. China will not waver in its resolve to safeguard the nation's sovereignty and territorial integrity.”

the usa is still unparalleled in military power. the usa could absolutely destroy any country in the world, including china, if they mobilized fully. they might also destroy themselves in the process, but nonetheless.

>>2289413
They're incapable of mobilizing at all at this point for multiple reasons. In particular any disruption to the consumer market basically leads to catastrophe. Even if it did destroy China it would destroy itself in the process.

>>2289413
USA will remain undefeated, and still collapse. This is ever the fate of empires

>>2289413
The US military is so hollowed out by PMCs that it's not even funny. Despite the massive military budget every year thr US Military is not equipped to do anything against an actual armed force. Meaning that US is so risk evasive that they cannot risk losing a a lot of soldiers and would retreat like the zionist entity and rely solely on bombings. That being said the US military isn't experienced fighting anyone that isn't a poor desert country.

>>2289232
yeah but those monopolies are private. the "process of mergers and acquisitions" in china is called nationalization

Article on China's post-93 health insurance reforms. Just the intro included here since it's too long to c/p.

https://www.eastisread.com/p/china-never-had-free-healthcare-before?
In-Depth Interview | The Onset and Breakthroughs of China's Healthcare Reform

>From 1996 to 1998, I served as Director-General of the Department of Income Distribution and Social Security under the National Commission for Restructuring the Economic System, while concurrently heading the Office of the State Council Leading Group for the Reform of the Employees’ Medical Insurance System. During this period, I witnessed firsthand the initial stages of China's medical insurance system reform.


>From 1998 to 2002, I continued my involvement in healthcare reform as the head of the State Council’s Inter-Ministerial Coordination Group for the Healthcare System Reform.


>During this period, I participated in drafting several landmark healthcare reform plans:


<The 1998 Employees’ Medical Insurance Reform Plan


<The 2000 Urban “Medical Services, Medical Insurance, and Pharmaceuticals” [the healthcare institution management system, the employees' medical insurance system, and the pharmaceutical production and distribution system] Reform Plan


<The 2002 New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme (NCMS)


>This period marked both the inception and key breakthroughs in China’s healthcare reform. It saw the establishment of the basic framework for the social security system, including medical insurance, and the launch of reforms in the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors.


>The Two-Jiang Pilot [Zhenjiang City in Jiangsu Province and Jiujiang City in Jiangxi Province] in 1994 and its subsequent nationwide expansion constituted the seminal breakthrough in China's healthcare insurance reform, setting the entire system in motion. Looking back on this pivotal chapter, I am filled with a deep sense of reflection and nostalgia.

For half a century, the world laughed and scoffed at China. They looked at the profound spiritual resolve and belief of the Chinese people, and saw a bunch of primitive fanatics. The Chinese people proclaimed they would not stop until all the cosmos itself was red. No one took them seriously. An entire nation animated and compelled by revolutionary belief, breathing, living and dying for it. And the rest of the world ignored them and did not treat this belief with seriousness.

In the 1700s, something was happening in Europe destined to change the world. China was asleep. In the last half of the 20th centruy, China was undergoing a COLOSSAL, DEEPLY PROFOUND revolutionary event. The rest of the planet was asleep. The Chinese people awakened to a truth they knew would change all world history. They didn't know how to communicate their revolutionary passion to the rest of the planet, but they really had it. The world laughed at them because they were poor and were of modest means, ignoring the richness of their spiritual and ideological development.

Deng Xiaoping understood the capitalist West would not respect or recognize China, until the Chinese people beat them at their own game. This was much easier than the comparatively more profound, difficult revolutionary process the Chinese people ALREADY accomplished. As Mao alluded, Deng's goal would be easy to achieve. The world will not respect or recognize revolutionary China until China speaks the language of the world: Translating its spiritual power into an overwhelming material power of commodities. China has flooded world capitalism with such a super abundance of commodities that it has trampled underfoot the idols of Moloch itself. China overthrows the commodity brands worshipped by the capitalist West, produces them in super abundance in its massive, mechanized factories - dis-enchanting designer brands and reducing them to what they are - mere physical things.

China shatters the illusions of consumerism, by revealing the truth about how trivial consumer goods are to produce. China surpasses, excels, and dominates over Western capitalism in every field it deigns to. China shows the world only a fraction of its power. Its true power is the revolutionary belief that the world used to laugh at, for it remains, - however carefully guarded - at the foundation of the Communist Party that continues to unfiy the nation. China unconsciously yearns for this lofty, world-changing belief to be recognized. China has earned the attention of the world.

Now it is time for the West and the rest of the world at large to recognize revolutionary China. To study Mao Zedong Thought, to take seriously and appreciate the revolutionary tradition of Marxism-Leninism, to accept the simple fact that Communism never died, but is more alive than ever before.

The West continues to cope and invent their own fairy-tale narratives, coping and desperately trying to explain China's success, falsely claiming that it abandoned Marxism. They never foresaw this happening because they were WRONG and continue to be WRONG. The Chinese had the great foresight and wisdom to plan what is now happening decades in advances. Only they have been consistently proven correct. So now it is time to study, recognize, and take seriously the outlook that has guided China to this point. However humiliating that is to arrogant Western liberal know-it-all "experts."

China owns this century. China was proven right. China has earned it.

>>2292988

Trotsky got the shaft for political reasons, not because his ideas were wrong. At the end of thr day, he was still a key part of the Russian revolution. If you're able to get past the parts that obviously result from his personal resentments, there's a lot to learn from him. Nietzsche is like Hegal, where you need to dig out the rational kernal buried beneath a bunch of nonsense, but I can assure you it's there.

>least mentally ill anarchist I guess

I'm not an anarchist.

>>2293880
There is nothing to learn from him because if he was in charge he would have ended up in the same situation as the soviet leadership at that time.


>>2293891
The myth of Trotsky is kept alive by anti-communists to discredit the soviet leadership. It would have made no difference if he was in charge give the circumstances the Soviet Union was in. Said anti-communists would have just picked another slighted former member of the leadership to spin their discrediting narrative.

Utterly wrong. Trotskyites are petty-bourgeois menshevik deviation from Marxism-Leninism. The Communist Party won its fight for the industrialisation of the country in battle against the worst enemies of socialism, the Trotskyists and Bukharinists, who opposed to the Party’s general line of industrialising the country the line of converting the Soviet Union into an agrarian appendage of imperialist countries and tried to deflect the U.S.S.R. on to a capitalist path of development. The victory of the collective farm system was won in decisive struggle against the exploiting classes and their Trotskyist and Bukharinist agents, who defended the kulaks in every possible way, combated the creation of collective and State farms and demanded the dissolution and abolition of the existing collective and State farms. The Communist Party routed the Trotskyist line of the exploitation and forcible expropriation of the peasantry by means of high prices for industrial goods and excessive taxes, and also the right-opportunist Bukharinist theory ofthe “peaceful growing of the kulaks into socialism”, and of “letting things develop themselves in economic construction.

i mean if you actually read Trotsky instead of upholding an effigy of him fashioned by Orwell, he's kinda mid.
He makes good points sometimes but overall his writing is meandering. Should have stuck to gassing peasants.

>>2293941
You seem to forget that Trotsky was a pretty big player in the Russian Revolution and early Communist Russia. Also that Marxism-Leninism didn't exist until Stalin rose to power. I could very easily see a timeline where he and Stalin switched places in history; where Trotsky was Lenin's successor, and Stalin was the guy everyone on Leftypol hated for being a bitter traitor.

>>2293960
The weird part is that Mao was arguably more revisionist than Trotsky ever was, but we all give him a pass.

Honestly, I'm sick of "revisionist" as an insult. Sometimes, things really do need revision. If Marxism truly is a science, then our understanding of it should evolve as we learn more about it.

>>2293960

>>2293972
Trotskys revisionism was unacceptable because it hindered the growth of socialism. Revisionism works when it is necessary for the conditions of building socialism. Gorbys revisionism, for example, did more harm than good and it was not necessary.

>>2293950
Even if Stalin was defeated in the power games, he wouldn't have tried to risk the genocide of the population of USSR by aligning with nazi saboteurs and trying to destroy the soviet government.

Because Stalin, at the end of the day, was a good guy.

>>2293980
Trotsky's revisionism was never really properly attempted. For the record, I don't agree with him on most of it, but still.

>>2293982
Maybe it's because I'm cynical, actually it's absolutely because I am, but I don't believe it. Stalin's ruthlessness as a winner tells me that he would be just as ruthless as a loser.

Of course, a lot of it comes back to my skepticism of representative politics in general, although people will probably call me an ultra if I elaborated any more. Just know that insanity in groups is something rare - but in individuals, politicians, rulers, it's the norm.

>>2293980

Trotsky was the one that urged Stalin to create a united front to stop Hitler come coming into power but Stalin dismissed it. World War 2 could've been avoided.

Stalin tried to organise an anti-nazi front like 3 times.

>>2294058

none of your links proves that.

BS, Trotsky was long gone from the USSR (1929) when the USSR proposed to the European libs to ally against the nazis (1938-1939).
go lie elsewhere, radlib.

>>2294058
Stalin only tried to form the anti nazi front after Hitler came into power (which he could've prevented) then collaborated with them until they invaded the USSR

>>2294066
socdems are social fascists

>>2294035
>>2294038
The Soviet Union failed because its underlying political system allowed it too. If you want a people's government to reliably stay a people's government, you need to have it actually be ruled by the people directly. Otherwise, sooner or later, self-serving politicians are going to find their way in and fuck everything up for their own short-term gain. I'm not calling for anarchism, nor even a fully direct democracy, but history shows that representative politics are prone to corruption and as such must be kept on a tight leash.

you've already conceded that china is socialist at all, despite the fact most ultras call it "state capitalism" which it is, because that's what the transitionary stage from capitalism to socialism is as discussed in depth by every major marxist writer.

>>2294088
trotsky was a treacherous person. he or probably Lenin's wife, or someone close to the two, falsified the "Lenin's testament". And only after trotsky was killed you saw coup d'etat attempts on Stalin reduced to almost nothing. the guy wasn't communist, was a lusted for power official.
Lenin was right on denouncing him like the snake he was before the Soviets were formed, and was only less vocal because Lenin was a diplomatic person.

https://www.marxists.org/history/international/comintern/sections/britain/pamphlets/1925/trotskyism/resolution.htm
In his report to the plenary session of the Central Committee of the C.P.S.U. (B.) in 1937, Comrade Stalin explained the course this group of renegades had run as follows: In the past, seven or eight years ago, Trotskyism was one of such political trends in the working class, an anti-Leninist trend, it is true and therefore profoundly mistaken, but nevertheless a political trend. . . . Present-day Trotskyism is not a political trend in the working class, but a gang without principle and without ideas, of wreckers and diversionists, intelligence service agents, spies, murderers, a gang of sworn enemies of the working class, working in the pay of the intelligence services of capitalist states. After the of the Chinese revolution in 1927, a small number of Trotskyites appeared in China, too. Ganging up with Chen Tu-hsiu and other renegades, they formed a small counter-revolutionary clique in 1929 and spread such counter-revolutionary propaganda as that the Kuomintang had already completed the bourgeois-democratic revolution and they became a dirty imperialist and Kuomintang instrument against the people. The Chinese Trotskyites shamelessly joined the Kuomintang secret service. After the September 18th Incident, to fulfil the order given by the criminal renegade Trotsky “not to impede the occupation of China by imperial Japan”, they began collaborating with Japanese secret agents, received subsidies from them and engaged in all kinds of activities facilitating Japanese aggression.

Is China socialist or capitalist? They are in the primary stage of socialism. Well what exactly is this primary stage of socialism you ask?

Deng Xiaoping answers this question at the 13th National Congress in 1987:

>Deng: "It is not the initial phase in a general sense – that is, a phase that every country goes through in the process of building socialism. Rather it is, in a particular sense, the stage that China must necessarily go through while building socialism, starting with backward productive forces and an underdeveloped commodity economy. It will be at least 100 years from the 1950's, when the socialist transformation of private ownership of the means of production was basically completed to the time when socialist modernization will have been in the main accomplished. All these years comprise the primary stage of socialism. This stage is different both from the transitional period in which the socialist economic basis was not yet laid, and the later stage in which socialist modernization will have been achieved."

China needs to take as much territory as possible in the SCS so that it if the US tries to launch a limited war against China by trying to enforce a naval blockade and Taiwan independence, China will start from a better position.

>>2293764
For what it's worth, while I like a lot of individual things Nietzsche has said, I think that Nietzscheanism as a whole is abhorrent. I stand for democracy, the minimization of power hierarchies, rule of law, and the relegation of violence to a tool to enforce social order. Nietzsche, obviously, wanted the exact opposite of that.

I still contend that he's important to read though, if only for historical reasons. His are the missing link between romanticism and modern intellectual cancers like fascism, postmodernism, and right "libertarianism", so understanding Nietzche is key to fully understanding them.

Like, I'm not trying to diminish their accomplishments, they were great and many, but they were also the first large-scale attempt at socialism, and as such made a bunch of mistakes. Countries like China and Korea looked at these mistakes and then improved upon what the Soviets were doing immensely. We should be looking to them for guidance, not a nation that died before most of the people here were born.

Now I see why Hoxha broke up with China. I'm on Mao's side against Khruschev and Brezhnev, but to so blatantly betray Stalin's memory is something else. And by using such quotes, Brezhnev could quite easily portray China as revisionists themselves, lol

Like, USSR removed troops from Chinese border back when China managed to win their Civil War. There was a prolonged period of there being basically no border between two nations. Where the fuck did "hurrdurr Stalin was colonizing Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia" bullshit even came from?

>>2297671
Yeah, Mao's latter years is awful.
Only the global south can achieve socialism?
USSR proved that wrong.
The USSR does "social imperialism"?
He refused to present a structured economic argument that reflects how socialism and imperialism can be confined into one single definition, without specific examples of exploitation by USSR state companies: unions massacred, governments overthrown to exploit their workers, capital expansion of the USSR.
The USSR will cease to exist not without nuking everyone on earth?
well, if anything gorby and yeltsin did good was proving that Mao was wrong.

Though I have more respect for Mao than I would ever have for yeltsin and gorby combined.

>>2297825
USSR was social imperialist - in later years. Collective capitalist of the state was acting more and more like capitalists, not the working class. Under social imperialism, Mao meant USSR searching for markets for Soviet goods - instead of producing cars for Soviet citizens, USSR was specifically aiming at foreign markets, and paying workers with shittier quality cars. Mao was correct in this. Even Soviets building stuff everywhere was a result of Soviet heavy industries searching for customers

>b-but China is the same!


No. China doesn't, and didn't, have a disgusting situation like with Soviet cars, when even if Soviet citizens had money, they couldn't buy the cars they produced because those were meant for exports. It's literally fucking capitalism - workers MUSTN'T have the ability to buy their product for profitability to be positive. Chinese workers can, potentially

>>2297843
even if Mao was somehow 100% correct with his social imperialism nonsense (he wasn't) it still didn't justify opportunistically siding against the USSR in every geopolitical situation and just driving the nails deeper into its coffin just to prove a point. I try to be a maoist-positive ML (see flag) but latter years Mao was simply demented and acting upon a massive chip on his shoulder.

The only way I can see Socialism being imperialist is if someone is using the term so that they can trick other people into voting/working for them, i.e. NSDAP.

>>2297858
Yeah, that was what Mao meant. Stalin was opposed to Tito for the same reason. No wonder that Khruschev and Tito fast became friends

Almost as if communism isn't left-wing and your position in the bourgeois political circus means absolutely nothing when it comes to real issues.

The man picked by Beijing as the second highest figure in Tibetan Buddhism pledged adherence to the ruling Communist Party’s dictates on Friday during a rare face-to-face meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping

https://www.ireland-live.ie/news/world/1820342/beijing-appointed-panchen-lama-holds-rare-meeting-with-chinese-leader.html

Gyaltsen Norbu, who is rarely seen in public, met behind closed doors with Mr Xi in Zhongnanhai, the government compound in the centre of Beijing, about 2,300 miles from his home monastery of Tashilhumpo, high on the Tibetan steppe.

The 35-year-old said he would “firmly support the leadership of the Communist Party of China and resolutely safeguard the unity of the motherland and national unity”, the Xinhua News Agency reported.

The Chinese government appointed him as the Panchen Lama of Tibetan Buddhism in 1995 at age five after followers of the Dalai Lama recognised a different boy, Gedhun Choekyi Nyima, as the Panchen’s incarnation.

- 40 fifth-generation J-35 stealth aircraft
- A KJ-500 AWACS aircraft (Airborne Warning and Control System)
- An HQ-19 air defense system

The statement also states that China had agreed to deferment of $3.7bn in debt and that 100,000 Pakistani citizens would be trained in AI and IT with the support of Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei.

The statement also affirms an earlier report that Azerbaijan had signed a $4.6 billion defense deal to purchase 40 Pakistani-produced JF-17 aircraft.

https://jackpoulson.substack.com/p/google-affiliated-military-ai-expo

>At the end of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies panel on Wednesday in which I was searched for a Palestinian flag, I contested an assertion from retired Rear Admiral Mark Montgomery that the U.S. had unilaterally disarmed from information operations, citing a public contracting summary of an ongoing, five-year, $500 million ceiling information operations contract between Joint Special Operations Command and General Dynamics Information Technology. (Nevermind the primary sponsor of the event, Rhombus Power, having advertised its ongoing counter-China information operations in a keynote earlier that morning.)


>“There’s a difference between spending money on something and doing something, and I’d say the U.S. military is pretty kickass at that. We can spend money on things and produce nothing with ease,” responded Mr. Montgomery, adding that, “I don’t doubt that there is a $500 million contract out there, I would doubt that there is $5 million worth of product out there.” Montgomery further recounted his unsuccessful attempts at conducting covert propaganda against China, “Covert is where we do something — probably the contracts you’re talking about — where we tell the truth about America but you don’t know it’s us.” He continued that, “I tried to do these campaigns when the Chinese were doing island building in the South China Sea. I couldn’t convince our government to pay people to write stories about what a disaster this was to South China Sea fishing and marine life conditions … There will be 300 stories about a U.S. Navy ship clipping three meters of reef off in Hawaii and zero stories at the same time about the Chinese destroying the South China Sea, so we can’t do covert.”


>“The final thing is clandestine, it’s not done by the military, it’s done by other people, it’s where we say something that’s not the truth and you hopefully don’t figure out that it’s done by us. And if we’re doing that, we’re doing a terrible job at it,” Montgomery added, before recounting the Soviet Union’s Operation Denver disinformation campaign against the U.S. relationship with the African National Congress. According to reporting from Reuters last year, both the Pentagon and the CIA have run disinformation campaigns against China in recent years, with the Pentagon’s anti-vax campaign in the Philippines being led by General Dynamics IT.

What are China's criticisms of the national question in USSR?
What did China do to avoid USSR's mistakes when it comes to the national question?

Can somebody point me in the right direction?

>>2301277
They didn't really "criticize" the USSR's handling of the national question. They just said that the formula used in the USSR was inapplicable to China because of various reasons they pretended were exclusive to China. So basically they criticized it in a way that didn't actually say that the Soviets made any sort of error.
https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/zhou-enlai/selected-works/volume-two.pdf
p. 253 - "Questions Relating to our Policies Towards China's Nationalities" Specifically Section II. "Regional Autonomy for the Nationalities"
He basically says that the right of self-determination is not needed in China because the different nations need each other for the enrichment of their economies and culture, and that all of the different nations had been living throughout China so carving out a state for one nationality would force members of other nations to separate along with them.
Of course, both were also very much true for the Soviet Union as well, so really not convincing. The Central Asian republics for example are notorious for having economies reliant upon workers moving to Russia to send money home and only saw anything akin to homogeneity after the dissolution encouraged migration of titular ethnic groups in and Russians out.

Chang: The world is not big enough for all of China's products

https://x.com/RnaudBertrand/status/1930454605344952435

>The reactions to Luanna Jiang's Harvard commencement speech in both China and the US are really interesting to study, in that they are so illustrative of the current zeitgeist in both countries.


First of all, let's be clear, her speech wasn't well received on either "side" at all.

>Just to verify this, last night I showed a picture of Luanna Jiang to my wife and some of her friends, all Chinese mums in their 40s who don't follow politics at all, and asked them "Have you heard of this girl?" and they all replied in unison "Yes, she's hated in China." Granted, not a perfect proxy for the Chinese mood overall, but pretty illustrative nonetheless.


>Same story on the US side where, unsurprisingly given the current paranoid McCarthyist atmosphere - her being Chinese and this being Harvard - many people saw her as a validation of the Trump administration's unhinged narrative that the university is "coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus."


>This already contains in itself a contradiction: criticized in the US for being an agent of China, but actually hated in China.


>I won't dwell too much on the US side: I think everyone understands all too well the paranoid binary thinking that's taken hold, where any Chinese person who doesn't actively denounce their origins is automatically suspect.


>The Chinese side is a bit more nuanced and counter-intuitive, as you'd think that the first-ever Chinese national to give a commencement speech at Harvard would be seen positively, if only because it represents a breakthrough moment for Chinese representation abroad.


>But no, it wasn't perceived like that at all.


>First of all, her speech itself (of which you can read a transcript here: https://harvardmagazine.com/2025/05/harvard-commencement-2025-student-speech-yurong-luanna-jiang) was problematic.


>If you read it, there isn't actually anything fundamentally wrong with it. It's her own story, that of a privileged international student reflecting on "shared humanity" and global interconnectedness - the sort of saccharine, buzzword-filled idealism that may sound profound in a Harvard auditorium but is ultimately just hollow platitudes.


>Why was it badly received in China? For the very reason that it sounded like Harvard commencement speech template #5, that there wasn't anything real or authentic about it, the kind of speech designed to speak to a Western liberal elite audience.


>Fundamentally the Chinese were disappointed that the first-ever Chinese national to give a commencement speech at Harvard didn't sound Chinese at all: she sounded like a hollow Western liberal.


>As such, this wasn't China on stage, she was the symbol of everything ordinary Chinese people resent about a subset of their own elites: someone who had reneged on the real Chinese identity and transformed herself into a perfectly polished Western liberal mouthpiece; cutting any genuine connection to her roots in favor of assimilation into Western orthodoxy.


>There's that expression in China: "Baizuo" (literally "white left"), which has very negative connotations. It's a perfect adjective for her speech: exactly the sort of condescending, out-of-touch idealism that the Chinese - who are fundamentally pragmatists and hate words over substance - see as the worst kind of privileged moral posturing, offering performative virtue signaling while ignoring the real challenges people actually face.


>Luanna Jiang gave a separate interview (https://x.com/zhao_dashuai/status/1929327144603132055) that went viral on Chinese social media where you can see her speak about her idealism on the Harvard campus while you can literally see two guys fighting in the background: you couldn't find a better encapsulation of the "baizuo" mentality - completely absorbed in delivering her own moral platitudes while remaining utterly oblivious to the real-world conflict happening literally right behind her.


>All that being said it wasn't her speech itself that got her the most backlash in China but rather her reaction to some of the criticism of it on Weibo (where, tellingly, her username is 哈佛蒋雨融Luanna, i.e. "Harvard Jiang Yurong Luanna"), as well as Chinese netizens digging into her background.


>Her first kneejerk reaction to the criticism was to invalidate it by saying she'd received a lot of positive reactions to it in the Harvard yard, which of course demonstrated exactly what Chinese netizens found so infuriating - she was using approval from American liberals as her yardstick, apparently oblivious to the fact that this was precisely what she was criticized for.


>Then Chinese netizens started to look into her background, which only fueled the anger further.


>They discovered she was a classic "富二代" (second-generation rich) who had attended elite UK boarding schools and lived a life of extraordinary privilege, exactly the kind of wealthy overseas Chinese that ordinary people resent.


>Worse still, people found timeline inconsistencies in her resume and began questioning whether she actually holds Chinese citizenship at all - potentially making her entire "first Chinese national to give Harvard commencement speech" narrative a complete fraud.


>All in all, what emerged was the picture of someone who embodied everything ordinary Chinese people despise: a wealthy overseas Chinese elite who had bought her way into Western institutions, adopted Western liberal values wholesale, and was now trying to speak for China while having no authentic connection to the Chinese experience whatsoever.


>What does this all say about the Chinese zeitgeist today? In some ironical way, it's not THAT different from the pushback you get in the U.S. against "globalists": in both cases, you have popular anger directed at privileged elites who are seen as having traded their authentic national identity for membership in a transnational liberal class that speaks in the polished platitudes of global liberalism, and is fundamentally disconnected from the concerns of ordinary people in their home countries.


>And, again ironically, that might in fact be an interesting way to bring China and the US closer. Say for the sake of argument that Luanna Jiang, instead of giving her hollow liberal speech had stood up at Harvard and delivered a blistering critique of how we're creating a rootless international class that speaks in sanitized platitudes while remaining deaf to their own people's actual struggles - such a message would have found enthusiastic audiences in both Beijing and Middle America.


>The irony is that it'd have been infinitely more compatible with the messaging of the Chinese government which itself loathes "baizuo" liberalism, but she also likely wouldn't have faced accusations of being a "CCP agent" in the U.S.


>Which also in itself says a lot about the need to have actual real China voices in the U.S. as opposed to voices like Jiang's: if Americans actually encountered genuine Chinese worldview - with its distrust of rootless elites and emphasis on cultural authenticity - they might discover they actually like it.

Do the math. If the Chinese can sustain even 2.5% population loss from a Sino-American war, which is admittedly 35 million, the US will pay between 100 and 550% of GDP for the privilege of doing so and go bankrupt.

If you understand On Contradiction all of this will make sense to you.

Basically, superstructural arguments for the failure of the Soviet Union are valid; like all Marxists, the Chinese do start from the base, but they acknowledge that superstructure can affect the material base as much as the material base can affect the superstructure.

did you watch the video? it kinda does the opposite, he talked about how the USA/China relationship has flipped, where all the skilled manufacturing labor exists in China and none of it here. he specifically blames porkys greed for it too

>>2306537
>porky's greed
Capitalism is a system that reproduces itself whether or not individual bourgeoisie are "greedy". Capitalism as a system demands reinvestment of profit into buying more means of production, labor power, raw materials, and real estate. It creates an incentive for the imperial core to outsource. I think SmarterEveryDay's passionate plea to Buy American (tm) even if it's not affordable betrays the petty bourgeois reactionary sentiment to return to the pre-monopoly era of capitalism, which is impossible. It reflects at best a naivete of how capitalism works.

I leave you with this quote from Rajani Palme Dutt:

>As an example of the[…] this reactionary propaganda […] an article prominently published in the millionaire-owned Sunday Express under the title, "Make Way for the Small Man," denouncing the illusion of "Progress" and the failure of "mass production," and calling for the return to "the small owner" as the ideal: "The unit of the State is the self-supporting farm with first thoughts for subsistence and only second thoughts for the market-which might be mainly next door and consist of craftsmen supplying the needs of neighboring farms. "This simple farm-and-craft relationship is essential to the health and wealth of any civilisation […] We should try to recover it." (Sunday Express, January 15, 1933.) Naturally the finance-capitalists would be highly indignant if this infantile propaganda, which they broadcast by the most highly developed "mass production" [for the purpose of confusing] their readers, were suggested to be seriously applied […]

I think you're right about this, but its the opposite of what the bigger bourgeoise want, so there's a bit of a conflict of interest there. The video is really interesting everyone here should watch it, the ultimate villian in the story ends up not being the porky that makes things, even if he's greedy, but the tech lords like Amazon, who actively encourages foreign manufacturers to 'steal' petty bourgeois IP because the knockoffs get sold on Amazon and Bezos makes a profit either way

Zhibo gonghui: China’s ‘live-streaming guilds’ of manipulation experts
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/1369118X.2021.1994630

>In China, the live-streaming industry boasts 587 million users worth 961 billion yuan in 2020. With so many live-streamers clamoring for fame and fortune, the sheer competition catalyzes the rise of ‘live-streaming guilds’ (zhibo gonghui) that help members elevate themselves in the performance charts of the various live-streaming apps. In this article, we conducted ethnographic research in one such guild that contracted its business from the live-streaming platform Zhubei. By conceptualizing these guilds as collectives of manipulating ‘algorithmic experts’, we argue that they optimize their live-streamers’ performance according to algorithmic parameters that the platforms themselves reveal.

>However, guilds manipulate audience affects more,
<going so far as to use heterosexual male workers to masquerade as female live-streamers to entice straight male audience members to tip generously.
😀🫢🤯🤔😃
>As such, we challenge the still-prevalent epistemological assumption that live-streamers work alone, and the received wisdom that platform algorithms are unknown and unknowable.
Chinese collective consciousness is so smart they can even fathom TikTok's algorithm, incredible

In Chinese it's called "Zhōngguó Gòngchǎndǎng" which translates, literally, to "China Communist Party". I don't even understand how/why CCP would sound more ominous than CPC to begin with.

>>2314888
>how/why CCP would sound more ominous
Because it reminds ppl of the CCCP. It's intentional, planned propaganda.

Shut the fuck up, btw.

>>2314896
Thank u

>>2314915
I think the word "communist" does more to remind people of the Soviet Union tbh. Anyway I'm glad you agree CCP is a closer direct translation than CPC. The only valid complaint is that it's not consistent with the english naming convention used by the comintern, which does annoy me a little bit but I'm not gonna go around accusing Chinese citizens of being CIA over it.

(Although the comintern naming convention in other languages was "[Country] Communist Party" rather than "Communist Party of [Country]", as you can see in the case of China for example)

>>2314923
>i agree with myself, project it onto you, and congratulate myself

>>2314925
You didn't make a counter argument, and still haven't. The correct translation is "China Communist Party". Learn Chinese if you're gonna weigh in on what is or isn't a faithful translation, idiot.

>>2314930
The CPC calls itself CPC in its official English language organs.


Shut. The. Fuck. Up.

>>2314923
Comunque la versione corretta rimane "Partito Comunista Cinese", ergo "PCC", ma gli angloidi non sono pronti per sta cosa

>>2314938
Yes, they use the comintern naming convention for english. Doesn't change the fact that CCP is a perfectly valid (actually more faithful) translation. CPUSA is called "America Communist Party" in Chinese but you wouldn't call that some sinister plot, would you. Just how languages work.

>>2314896

>>2314945
clearly you don't know how deflation works

They sell Marx's books in America does this mean that america is #communist???

>>2314942
Who gives a fuck about the comintern? What matters is how China wants to be called in United Nations documentation. CPC is the official English designation used by the party itself in international contexts (like UN documents and Chinese state media like Xinhua) The U.N also always refers to the party as the CPC because they diplomatic protocols.

The only group of people that INSIST on calling it the CCP are the westerners in their internal propaganda and what's funny is even the americans will fall in line and call them the CPC in official diplomatic readouts.

There's a subtle difference between the two in english nobodies mentioned, CPC emphasizes the national role and CCP emphasizes the ideological, the former being a scare tool for the previously mentioned propaganda
>>2314942

Guess I should start calling it the CCP now.

>>2315125
>>2315148
But in all seriousness, I think the reason people call it the "Chinese Communist Party" is simply because it rolls off the tongue easier.

>>2315125
>CPC emphasizes the national role and CCP emphasizes the ideological
Literally the opposite. Burger reactionaries say CCP because it looks like CCCP (>>2314915) and because Chinese can refer to the ethnicity as well as the country and they're racist crakkkers.

>>2329141
also, china's coal consumption has stagnated since 2011 even though their electricity generation keeps increasing at a rapid rate (first pic). for instance, in 2007, 81% of China’s electricity came from coal. now 53% of China’s electricity comes from coal. this is because they're using more renewable energy and more efficient coal plants that also emits less pollution (see 2nd pic).

so what people leave out when they say that china keeps building more coal plants is that since the early 2010s, china's policy has been to build a new coal plant to replace an existing coal plant as a goal. that doesn't mean it always happens, but what has happened as an average is China destroys 20+ year old coal plants that may have been 500 MW, replacing them with 800 MW or larger units.

the result has been that China has the most efficient coal plants in the world as an average. the average USA plant in the early 2000s had about a 30% efficiency factor. That is 30% of energy in coal is converted to energy. China average currently is in the high 40% and its largest coal plants are in the 50s or 60s using advanced techniques. As this continues, China destroys its oldest, most inefficient units over time, reducing pollution per unit and coal use per unit.

China doesn't have an abundance of natural gas like the US does so it has to partly rely on coal for the time being before they can fully build out their nuclear power and renewable energy grid along with heavy investments in fusion energy. But their carbon emission has already peaked five years before their deadline thanks to their renewable energy surge and replacing old coal plants.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-05-27/china-s-falling-emissions-signal-peak-carbon-may-already-be-here

By the way, when the leaked methane is counted in USA's natural gas use, the effect is about the same as coal. the US numbers doesn't count its leaked methane.
www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/news-insights/latest-news-headlines/natural-gas-use-may-affect-climate-as-much-as-coal-does-if-methane-leaks-persist-68096816

>>2329289
they also build dual reactors that do coal and nuclear so that developing new places without supply chains can get power now and upgrade later.

and also their crushing these emissions numbers while building renewables for the rest of the world, their numbers could be even better but that would make other countries pathetic numbers even worse

china has literally built more roads, railways, factories, dams, ports and infrastructure in the past 20 years in Africa than the West has built in Africa in 400 years.

china is actively investing in industrializing africa by building power stations, power grids, industrial parks, and factories. they are advancing africa's productive forces*, while also taking care of another fifth of humanity at home whose standard of living continues to rise, which shows to the world that china's model works.

*for Marx: the advancement of the forces of production drives change in the relations of production, meaning you can't build full socialism (much less communism) on the basis of economic and industrial backwardness. there's levels to this shit aka historical materialism. khmer rouge in cambodia split the land and divided everything up in the 1970s, they abolished money and markets overnight. however, they did not build a communist society, it was merely socialized poverty. it was horrific with poverty, scarcity, and coercion universalized. mao initially supported khmer rouge for geopolitical reasons but distanced himself from their practices.

these days ultraleftists think installing or exporting a socialist or vanguard party in a poor, unstable or semi-feudal third world country is peak socialist activity, but that doesn’t guarantee meaningful socialist development. if the material base is underdeveloped, the new government will struggle to meet people’s needs, leading to disillusionment, instability, and even catastrophe – which is what we saw in Cambodia and was bad for socialism long-term.

well i said advancing the productive forces is important, not necessarily IMF and World Bank use of the term 'development' which is tied to privatizing the country's resources, banks, and removing protectionism. these are called structural adjustment loans that comes with conditions and stipulations. for instance, the world bank had a de facto condition where the country could not develop grains and instead focus on exporting cheap cash crops to the west. this means it's harder for the country to feed itself and must rely on importing grains from the US. michael hudson has a good talk about this. 70 years of the IMF and World bank did not develop much, not to mention IMF loans are foucsed on macroeconomic policies. china's scale of building roads, electric grids, railways, and critical infrstracture far exceeds them and it's tied to industrialization and productive capacity. china also doesn't use structural adjustment loans that comes with political/economic stipulations, and they don't lecture the countries on how to govern.

>>2332253
>china also doesn't use structural adjustment loans that comes with political/economic stipulations, and they don't lecture the countries on how to govern.
On top of this, BRI loans consider only the ability of the project itself to pay back, not total debt burden, so China lends to countries that are cut off from further IMF lending.

>The world's first Aframax oil tanker adopting wind sail propulsion was named on Wednesday at China State Shipbuilding Corp (CSSC) Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Co Ltd, according to the Shanghai-based shipyard.
>Named as "Brands Hatch", the tanker is built for the United Kingdom's Union Maritime Ltd (UML). It is aimed to regenerate the sector with modern technologies and clean energy, and try to bring new choices and practical pathways for the shipping industry to achieve green and low carbon transformation.
>The three wing sails, each with a height of more than 40 meters, can implement real-time intelligent dynamic adjustment based on meteorological data. In brief, it can leverage extra power for the oil tanker and substantially cut fuel consumption, reduce carbon emission as well as effectively improve the vessel's operation efficiency.
>Under normal sea conditions, the technology can save about 14.5 tons of fuel and 45 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per day. Each year, it is projected to reduce about 12 percent of fuel consumption and nearly 5,000 tons of carbon emissions annually, according to Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding.

china imports like 10 percent of its oil from iran. china could replace iranian oil easily and ramp up its imports from elsewhere like saudi arabia, iraq, russia, or even angola. iran exports 90% of its oil to china, so it's more like china giving iran an economic life line.

also, less than 1% of china's elecricity generation comes from oil. and half of china's oil use is for road transportation. that means that once cars and trucks become fully electrified, it could reduce their oil consumption by potentially 40-50%. not to mention, the US isn't going to face china in a hot war because china has the options of nukes or holding off rare earth metals which is what is needed to build cars, advance weapons, etc and why trump recently rushed to call xi about rare earth metals and made a deal. it's the same options for any proxy war where it could try to block china's oil supplies.

One of my hottest takes is that China unironically dodged a bullet when they got rid of the Gang of Four. If they had been in charge in 1989, the counter-revolutionaries would probably have succeeded because the Maoists were and and always will be utter fucking retards at best. Pragmatism will always win over half-baked slogans, "revolutionary" posturing and utopian declarations that lead nowhere.

Putin to spend four days in China though such long visits rarity — Kremlin aide

>Ushakov said earlier that Putin and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping had agreed to meet at the SCO summit, which will run from August 31 through September 1


>MOSCOW, June 22. /TASS/. A multi-day foreign visit is a rarity, though Russian President Vladimir Putin will spend four days in China, Presidential Aide Yury Ushakov said in an interview with GTRK journalist Pavel Zarubin.


>"Well, yes," he said when asked whether the visit would indeed last four days from August 31 to September 3. "There are several events planned there," Ushakov said, adding that such a long visit "is a rarity."


>Ushakov said earlier that Putin and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping had agreed to meet at the SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organization) summit, which will run from August 31 through September 1. Major bilateral talks are slated for September 2, while on September 3 in Beijing, the two leaders will take part in the festivities dedicated to the 80th anniversary of victory over militarist Japan and the end of WWII, he added.

China will get contracts to re-build Iran after the cease fire.

Also remember, Russia and China are close, but neither had the same relationship with Iran like they did with each other. Since 2022, Russia has repeatedly signaled its readiness to form formal military alliances with Iran. But Iran chose not to commit. Tehran likes to play different sides (this included being wishy-washy on some of its deals with China) so they can leave the door open for talks with the West as we saw in the past with the Obama deal and the recent negotiations in May. With the Israel strikes and US bombings, all trust is broken. The attacks will now drive Iran closer to Russia and China.

Thus, China bears the Mandate of Heaven and wields Dialectical Materialism as its skepter.

Sometimes (ok, just now) I wonder what would happen if I turned up to the nearest maker/hackerspace and started babbling about the real movement and so on.
I'd assume the same as when these serious political operators turn up here. Sounds like something between "you're doing great, champ" and "please leave us alone"

how about learning about the meanings behind marxist terminologies such as "the real movement", before you publicly disclose your petite bourgeois anxieties about being ostracized from your hobby clique
what you have to understand is that you are the enemy of the working people, and your job is NOT to try and make marxism more palatable to your reactionary class, but to betray your class and join the real movement, before you're swept away and destroyed with the rest of em.

First video is Chongqing East Railway Station, set to open soon.

Second video is Hangzhou West Railway Station before its opening.

Third video is Ganxi North Metro station in Shenzhen.

For the third picture, as of December 2024, China actually now has 11,000 KM of metro length. The fastest metro line in the world is the Guangzhou metro line 18, with an operating speed of 160km/h (99mph).

China should hit 50,0000 KM of HSR this year. They also have the fastest trains in the world by operating speed: CR Fuxing (350km/h) and CR Harmony (350km/h)

>China offers an alternative to Western ‘technofeudalism’
>China’s answer to the Western model focuses on planning, an open source approach and whether the new technology earns its place in society
>At the turn of the century, global innovation followed a Western script. Silicon Valley dominated the world in innovation. Europe exported standards and governance. Asia, in contrast, was cast as the manufacturer, assembler and consumer.
>But the global innovation order is shifting. According to the latest Edelman Trust Barometer, change is under way not only in technical capability but also in public sentiment. In China, 72 per cent of people trust artificial intelligence (AI), compared to 32 per cent in the United States and 28 per cent in the United Kingdom. Similar patterns hold across India, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand as developing Asian markets consistently outperform Western and developed peers on public trust in innovation.
>This matters as without trust, even the most advanced technologies stall. Where trust is high, adoption accelerates, institutional alignment strengthens and public-private collaboration deepens. This serves as a powerful catalyst, especially for a country like China, whose innovation strategy is tightly interwoven with national development goals and the self-sufficiency mission. These dynamics play out against a broader philosophical divergence in how innovation is governed.
>Broadly speaking, two models dominate the innovation landscape. The first is the “permissionless” model, which gave Silicon Valley its mojo. It champions speed, risk-taking and deregulation, based on the belief that innovation should be free to develop without prior approval.
>Although this laissez-faire approach has produced some of the most valuable technology companies globally, recent years have also seen such companies face accusations of acting against the public’s best interests, sparking debates on their influence and societal role.
>The second is the “permissioned” model, generally favoured across Asia, which takes a more regulated approach. Here, innovation is developed in line with national priorities, public oversight and deliberate planning. Once criticised as slow and bureaucratic, this model is proving increasingly fit for purpose as public concerns over job displacement, tech misuse and misinformation have brought trust in AI to a crossroads.
>Few countries have displayed the permissioned model more comprehensively than China. While Shenzhen’s story is well known, cities such as Hangzhou have also risen to become a national innovation corridor. Home to companies like DeepSeek and Unitree Robotics, its ecosystem is shaped by government planning, industrial policy and targeted support, sometimes in the form of computing power “credits” instead of plain financial subsidies.
>Chengdu is also a rising hub, investing in AI, supercomputing and the low-altitude economy. These developments are not random. They are the result of careful, cross-sector planning, showing how China’s model integrates policy into innovation design, rather than reacting to disruption after the fact. This coherence is China’s quiet strength.
>Economist Yanis Varoufakis has warned that the West is drifting towards so-called “technofeudalism”, a system where big tech firms extract digital rents, enclose ecosystems and centralise value. Users become serfs within closed platforms, while companies prioritise shareholders over societal value.
>In contrast, I believe China is charting an alternative which I call “technomeritism”. This builds on the principles of permissioned innovation but pushes beyond regulatory control to a broader value system, where technological success is judged not by valuation, but by whether it earns its place in society. It is earned through alignment with public goals, civic legitimacy and national strategy. Success is not concentrated but distributed across communities, the economy and wider ecosystems.
>This model matters more than ever as the world faces not just a trust deficit, but a coordination deficit. Technologies like AI, quantum computing and semiconductors can no longer scale in isolation. They require systems that bind together state capacity, industry leadership and a social mandate.
>China’s embrace of open source in this context, is an example of technomeritism in action. By making core technologies like large language models publicly accessible, companies such as DeepSeek and Alibaba Group Holding (which owns the South China Morning Post) are lowering barriers, encouraging collaboration and reinforcing the idea that innovation earns legitimacy through shared value, not private control.
>As Huawei Technologies founder Ren Zhengfei recently put it, an open-source environment will benefit the country’s long-term future.
>In a world shaped by sanctions and protectionism, open-sourcing undeniably serves as a strategic tool. But it also reflects a deeper principle that technological sovereignty isn’t achieved by hoarding and exploitation, but by distributing capability in ways that serve national and collective goals.
>Against this evolving landscape, Hong Kong also plays a vital role. With its common law system, international standards and globally fluent talent, it is uniquely positioned to enable what I describe as “innovation osmosis”, that is, a multilateral collaboration environment for mainland Chinese and global innovators.
>Initiatives like the InnoHK innovation programme at the Hong Kong Science Park show how the city can facilitate research and development collaboration that might otherwise be too complex or challenging to host elsewhere.
>We are not moving towards a single global model of innovation but, rather, an era of coexistence where different systems, permissionless and permissioned, centralised and open, will compete, collaborate and co-evolve. The countries and companies that succeed won’t necessarily be the fastest or most capitalised. They will be the ones best trusted to scale technology responsibly, align with public values and contribute to the solving of shared global challenges.
>In China, high levels of public trust in technology have been cultivated through long-term planning, design and a social contract that binds innovation to national development. When paired with an openness to multilateral collaboration, it becomes a powerful catalyst for progress. In a world searching for trust and direction, perhaps technomeritism is how China proposes to lead, not through unilateral dominance but with a more equitable alternative.

>Make China Great Again
Playful translation from the person doing the subtitles. What they said is closer to "Revitalize China." Some might say that essentially means the same thing but it is not directly linked with a reactionary movement in the imperial core. "Revitalize" doesn't imply returning to the imperial past whereas "make great again" does. The Chinese Communists did not want to return to the vitality of imperial China. They wanted a new form of vitality. It's different with MAGA

>>2357721
right but communist-led industrialization is superior to bourgeios-led reindustrialization for the purposes of reinvigorating a reactionary empire in decline, especially since the MAGA intention is to reindustrialize specifically for the purposes of waging war against China

China Hosts Iranian, Russian Defense Ministers Against Backdrop of ‘Momentous Change’

https://thedefensepost.com/2025/06/26/china-iran-russian-defense-ministers/

>China hosted defense ministers from Iran and Russia for a meeting in its eastern seaside city of Qingdao on Thursday against the backdrop of war in the Middle East and a summit of NATO countries in Europe that agreed to boost military spending.


>Beijing has long sought to present the 10-member Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) as a counterweight to Western-led power blocs and has pushed to strengthen collaboration between its member countries in politics, security, trade, and science.


>The Qingdao meeting of the organization’s top defense officials comes as a fledgling ceasefire between Israel and Iran holds after 12 days of fighting between the arch-foes.


>It is also being held the day after a summit of North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) leaders in The Hague, where members agreed to ramp up their defense spending to satisfy US President Donald Trump.


>Chinese Defence Minister Dong Jun framed Thursday’s meeting of officials in Qingdao, home to a major Chinese naval base, as a counterweight to a world in “chaos and instability.”


>“As momentous changes of the century accelerate, unilateralism and protectionism are on the rise,” Dong said as he welcomed defense chiefs from Russia, Iran, Pakistan, Belarus, and elsewhere on Wednesday, according to state news agency Xinhua.


>“Hegemonic, domineering and bullying acts severely undermine the international order,” he warned.


>He urged his counterparts to “take more robust actions to jointly safeguard the environment for peaceful development.”


>India’s Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, also in attendance in Qingdao, said that SCO members should “collectively aspire to fulfil the aspirations and expectations of our people as well as tackle today’s challenges.”


>“The world we live in is undergoing a drastic transformation. Globalization, which once brought us closer together, has been losing momentum,” he said in comments posted by his office on X.


>And meeting Dong on the sidelines of the summit, Russian Defence Minister Andrei Belousov hailed ties between the two countries as being “at an unprecedentedly high level.”


>“Friendly relations between our countries maintain upward dynamics of development in all directions,” he said.


>China has portrayed itself as a neutral party in Russia’s war with Ukraine, although Western governments say its close ties have given Moscow crucial economic and diplomatic support.

china must provide the developing world with nukes. the USA just recently stole the mineral rights of the DRC from it's people. colonialism and slavery are overpowered strats and the USA will use them shamelessly in an effort to destroy the PRC and it's allied nations. the PRC can't remain passive on this. or it'll be slowly isolated. denied allies, denied resources, denied economic growth, which to be clear economic growth isn't good in itself but in a world with a capitalist power like the USA in it, the PRC is, whether they like it or not, locked into competition with them.

Neurodiversity and the commodification of the human bodymind is a worker's issue. It seems clear to me that sanism/disableism largely results from the reserve pool of labor and the real subsumption, and in particular how ideology is coded into the means of production.

On one hand, I look to the market reforms of Cuba, Vietnam, China and the rest with sadness and concern, but I cannot really blame them. We've seen what happens when a socialist state falls directly into capitalist hands, and it's not pretty. I can only hope the slow road will get us there in the end…

It's so funny that the liberal revolutions of the 20th century had a communist theme cause of the weight of the dead revolutionaries of the 19th century.

The first time I felt the unrelenting momentum of the people was almost as if a surprise to me, for I did not believe people were able to organize beyond that of basic levels but there they were somehow organized all acting in unison if not by their own will by the will of another, as time went on the people had adopted a similar sentiment and a similar action like that of something that is seemingly unnatural but it had become apparent that the politicians rule over the people had diminished. And there it was an unrelenting momentum that had become unstoppable. Few people knew or understood what this was, as time went on it became more apparent that this unrelenting momentum would reverse and change the folds of society.

But now… Still… Money has control over the people… And those who are not controlled by money… They sick and unwell, physically unable to enact their will even if money does not control their actions…

Oh I know how to treat a wide magnitude of these ailments, enough to bring people's wills back but I cannot as the people are unwilling to accept that their perception is wrong, and are also unwilling to be binded to any person's will. Even if offered complete freedom the people will perceive that you seek control over them and pull away.

So when there is truer anarchy at play we will see more factions destroying each other out of petty nonsensical squabbles.

But it is not wrong to leave the people like this - clawing for power and destroying themselves in the process.

>Communist-led industrialization is superior to capitalist industrialization
This is certainly true but Chinese Communists never stopped pushing for industrialization even though capitalists ruled. The imperialist preaches often de-industrial line to undermine proletarian needs.
>>2358585
cope. your semantic gymnastic nuance is veiled bourgeois de-industrial line. The proletarian need to industrialize is material, not lexical. You think proletarian demand to industrialize is but a slogan, not means to better life. industrialization is beneficial to workers and any mindful proletarians supports industrialization. The ameriKKKan international monopolist bourgeoisie fulfills the same role as China's comprador bourgeoisie in ameriKKKa by de-industrializing and impoverishing proles. Chinese Communist revolutionary subliminal historical messaging refutes your liberal assertion that proletarians are reactionary for wanting better conditions

>Another question: some may be wondering what China thinks of the few countries of the world that make up the “West.” To be clear, the causes for optimism I have discussed here are primarily internal, to which external factors add another dimension. As for the West, at an everyday level people are neither interested in nor afraid of the West. It rarely comes into discussions, and the news outlets may have an item from time to time but it is well down the main page on the website. In other words, for ordinary people the West has become irrelevant. The real world and the most important developments are elsewhere. BRICS 11, the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, and much more has seen to that.

The United States of America has a reputation for their citizens being ignorant of other countries, to the point where plenty fail to locate major countries like India, China or Iran on a world map.
I wonder if this is a general phenomenon among historical world powers, or unique to the USA due to its size and geographical isolation.
While this isn't exactly what is being described here (see the last sentence), I wonder if the advance of the People's Republic of China into the populous world leader will encourage a similar sense of general ignorance among their people.

>>2363065
That's not Xi Jinping but his father Xi Zhongxun. The experience both went through makes Xi Jinping seem even more ideologically disciplined.
As for why, I'm only guessing, but maybe Xi Zhongxun (the father) thought reformers should also listen to young people, maybe he became more of a idealistic humanist over the years due to his very painful experience with Cultural Revolution and didn't saw the bigger picture of foreign meddling.
Maybe he was right in a sense that the protests would maybe fizzle out on their own anyway despite foreign support, they could partially be placated without any damage to the whole project and foreign meddling was a paper tiger in such a large country with a strong party.
But to me it seems that at that particular time China could go in any direction, CPC could be taken over by opportunists à la Gorbachev, so the government's strong suspicion against protesters was legitimate and retroactively justified by the later events in USSR.

Yeah this is really stupid. In China and anywhere else in the world. Their supposed reason (if "Dr Ge" is credible) for cracking down on this harmless shit is retarded:

>As marriage and birth rates plummet, and China's leader Xi Jinping encourages a national rejuvenation, so state scrutiny of danmei has ratcheted up, Dr Ge says.

>"The Chinese government wants to promote traditional family values and liking danmei novels is seen as a factor in making women less willing to have children," Dr Ge explains.

Given how small the popularity of this erotica is in the PRC (one of arrested women only got 5000 views on her work and the highest selling work quoted in the article only sold 7000 copies) the effect this has on birthrates is marginal. Criminalizing and persecuting this stuff will do nothing. It is a waste of time and resources.

Although it seems the persecution itself is the result of some government incentives that the central government realizes are to some extent inadequate:

>Indebted local governments have done this before to earn revenue through fines, sometimes forcing a warning from the central government. Cyber crimes are particularly prone to this "as long as they claim a local reader was corrupted", the lawyer says.

It's not credible. Just another piece of self-referential propaganda, in the sense that it's claims come from another such piece of propaganda

It's close in essense to claiming that USSR must have had suffered massive death toll from Holodomor (fake) famine, therefore Stalin has banned abortions. Except, you know, the whole deal with USSR's first large scale condom factory opening up at the same time as the bill on "ban" of abortions (abortions are less safe than condoms, duh, and abortions were vastly more prevalent than contraception in USSR at the time). It's just a bogus claim, and from that bogus claim they spin in it into self-referential narratives that flow into each other and reinforce each other

China doesn't have problems with birthrates. They have some issues with birthrates falling faster than was planned for, but overall trend was obvious. China doesn't intend to rely on birthrates, or migration, or anything like that, they are going to vastly increase automatization, and if people want to have more people, they'll probably use artificial wombs and state-run nurseries or whatever in the future

"Indebted local governments" don't exist either. We had a thread on this a whiiiile back

So, here's this video from plebbit. In regards to a propaganda piece, which was spread by all the random media outlets which hate China with a passion. There's a section in the video where the propagandist, when confronted with factual evidence that they spew bullshit, just doubled down and said something like "so what if the bench I used for the article showed an art installation in Germany?! It happens in real life in China!"

This kind of shit is what anticommunist is built upon. This is a willful, informed lie in a service of a goal of hating communism. If you track down Holodomor, for example, https://www.garethjones.org/tottlefraud.pdf you learn very quickly that this was a similar lie produced by a similarly idealistic propagandists who hated USSR with a passion, willing to commit fraud just for the sake of painting USSR in black color. And no, there is no archival evidence of Holodomor, it was checked for the last 35 years tirelessly, repeatedly. No evidence was found

So, why exactly are you opposing MLs? Which totally real not imagined crime of communism are you going to quote?

>China is quietly supplanting Russia as Cuba's main benefactor
>JATIBONICO, Cuba, June 30 (Reuters) - Hours over rutted roads inland from Havana, the small Cuban city of Jatibonico is a snapshot of late 19th-century living, its streets crowded with horse-drawn carriages and lacking power much of the day and night.
>The town’s decrepit sugar mill - once the country's largest - sits idle, lacking the parts, electricity, and fuel it needs to operate.
>Two years ago a Russian company, Progress Agro, announced it would import machinery, fertilizer, and know-how to revitalize the mill, which once employed 2,000 people.
>"When are the (Russians) coming? That's all anybody talks about," said Carlos Tirado Pino, 58, a mill maintenance worker among the few to retain his post.
>Meanwhile, just outside town and out of sight, three bulldozers clear an abandoned cane field to prepare for the installation of a Chinese-financed solar park that will deliver 21 MW of electricity - one of 55 similarly sized such solar parks underwritten by China across Cuba this year.
>Cuba is in desperate need of help. Shortages of food, fuel and medicine, grueling hours-long blackouts and plunging tourism and exports - combined with renewed U.S. sanctions under the second Trump administration - have devastated its economy.
>A Reuters review of various sites on the ground suggests that where many of Russia's most recent promises have fizzled, China has discreetly stepped up to fill the void, pushing ahead with a number of critically-timed projects aimed at helping Cuba salvage its economy.
>Cuba joined China's Belt and Road Initiative in 2018, and China has since invested in several strategic infrastructure projects on the island, including major projects in transportation, port infrastructure and telecoms, while Russia, mired in a war in Ukraine and leery of lending more money to crisis-racked Cuba, has faded as a historic partner.
>"Russia's promises have always been bigger than its performance," said William LeoGrande, a professor of Latin American politics at American University. "If China is now stepping up its assistance in light of Cuba's desperate conditions, that could prove to be a real lifeline."
>Neither the Russian nor Chinese embassies in Havana responded to a request for comment.
>CHINA DELIVERS
>The solar park project positions China as a pivotal partner for Cuba at a time of nearly unprecedented crisis: the country's national grid has collapsed four times in the past year alone, leaving millions in the dark and shuttering schools and businesses.
>On February 21, Cuba inaugurated a solar park in Cotorro, outside the capital, in a ceremony that included China's ambassador to Havana, Hua Xin and Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel, who lauded the project in a statement as a "collaboration from our sister Republic China."
>The fine print of the agreements between Russia and China and longtime ally Cuba remain largely confidential, making it difficult to discern how either country operates in Cuba, through private companies or via public financing and how the Cuban government might be repaying them.
>Since then, at least another eight have come online, according to grid operator UNE, churning out nearly 400 MW of sun-fueled energy together with existing parks - about a third of the mid-day deficit.
>Officials at the February event announced China was participating in a project to modernize Cuba's entire electrical grid, with 55 solar parks to be built in 2025, and another 37 by 2028, for a total of 2,000 MW - a massive undertaking that, when complete, would represent nearly two-thirds of present-day demand.
>The port of Mariel - Cuba's main shipping center just west of Havana - saw traffic from China begin to tick up in August of 2024, according to shipping data and two foreign businessmen who declined to give their names for this story.
>Ships arriving last year from Shanghai, Tianjin and other prominent Chinese ports carried solar panels, steel, tools and parts. The "kits" came complete with fuel for overland transport to assure the panels would make it to their destinations, the sources said.
>The arrival of Chinese ships is being felt across the Cuban countryside, as tractor trailers with Chinese markings rumble across pot-holed roads to reach far-flung destinations like Jatibonico.
>Truck driver Noel Gonzalez, who on a recent morning delivered a load of gravel fill to the solar park site on the city's outskirts, said he was both amazed and grateful for the Chinese diligence.
>"The Chinese (workers) come and periodically check every liter of petroleum, every route we take," Gonzalez said.
>Fulton Armstrong, a former U.S. National Intelligence Officer for Latin America, called China’s investments a "big benefit" but warned they won’t be enough to overcome the Trump administration’s renewed sanctions on the island.
>“Havana can’t bank on either Russia or China coming in with magic pills," he said. "Only massive amounts of Chinese trade and assistance could pull the island through – and that just doesn’t seem plausible."
>China's strategic investments in Cuba coincide with U.S. accusations that China is installing “spy bases” on the nearby Caribbean Island, though Cuba and China have denied the allegations.

the way other countries trade with cuba: by not using the western system for international payments. I imagine china has established a parallel system so chinese banks can receive payments from cuba and thus enable chinese companies to do business there
another way to bypass sanctions would be to trade products and services directly without using currencies at all - often done through state mediation because it would be hard for an energy company to handle a payment in sugarcane. this way it stays "off the books" of the western banking system

>>2370007
those laws are irrelevant because 1. they are not enforced and 2. the payments go through american nodes so even if they were enforced they wouldn't apply. it's funny you talk about midwits when your source is bourgeois posturing from wikipedia

and part of the blockade is, of course, that any company that engages in trade with cuba will face legal consequences if they try to do business in the usa. and this is associative: if you do business with a company that does business in cuba, you risk being sanctioned. or if you buy from a company that also sells to a company that, through N number of intermediators trades with cuba, you can be sanctioned

do companies sometimes get away with it, even without state mediation? yes, because the scrutiny isn't as strict as it could be. but it is a risk that big companies don't want to take

>>2370017
What's wrong with you? What on fucking earth does it serve to pretend to live in an alternate reality were 'le no one can trade with cuba because of american nodes' or wtf? is this a type of autism?

>>2370027
I'm going to explain it to you more slowly so you understand. the embargo means that american companies can't trade with cuba - notice that such law would be unenforceable if anyone could just make a shell company in mexico and trade through it. the way the any embargo works is that it is associative: you can't do business with cuba, or with anyone that does business with cuba. an international banking system means that your local bank can make transfers to an american bank, but if they made an arrangement to be able to transfer money to a bank in cuba, they would lose access to the american bank, and so would all their clients by association

>>2363606
This is dystopian but Alligator Alcatraz merch and wanting to deport 100 million people isn't.

to go back to the meaningless laws you read on wikipedia and took at face value: it doesn't matter if siemens can't be sued in germany for selling a turbine to cuba, they can be sued in the united states, and so can their employees, anyone that facilitated such trade, all the american siemens' clients and/or providers, etc. etc.
