Apparently the hot new anti-China talking point from the Burgers is that the Chinese are lying about their population numbers. Not birth rates but the actual number of people.

>>2786160
so, what's the REAL number?

ok

So if china somehow falls there's no more resistance to western corporate fascism or whatever you want to call it, were fucked as robot soldiers and advanced Intel just put down any rebellions and corpos win forever

Here's an article about labor conditions in China.

https://www.zhihu.com/question/450019849

Q: Why can’t factories find workers these days?

1. The Real Labor Shortage:
   
   

Even with a standard 40-hour work week, legal overtime pay, standard social benefits, no overnight shifts, and no age discrimination, they still can't find anyone.

The Fake Labor Shortage:

Working 10–12 hours a day, 28 days a month, on a two-shift rotation including overnights. Overtime is paid at the bare minimum rate with zero subsidies. Some offer basic insurance, but most skip the housing fund. On top of that, they only want men under 30 who can handle the graveyard shift.

Then they start screaming: "Why aren't any young people applying for jobs?!"

1. A friend of mine, her husband’s family owns a factory in a small town in Zhejiang. I won't specify the industry.
   
   

A couple of years ago, I was having dinner with her husband, and he started complaining: "It’s so hard to find workers these days. You have to offer at least 4,000 yuan a month just to get someone in the door. That’s 800 yuan more than a few years ago. With over 200 employees, think about how much extra money that is every year…"

Based on that, you’d think he was running a small factory barely staying afloat, right?

Well, let me tell you: his family drives a Rolls-Royce, owns multiple properties in Hangzhou, and lived in the UK for six or seven years. When his wife was still in school, she was already driving an Audi, living in a luxury penthouse, and buying designer bags like they were groceries.

For a wealthy business family like that, "hiring difficulties" must be a real headache, huh?

But for the rest of us commoners — if things are a little harder for them, doesn't that make life a little easier for you?

Don't be the kind of person who does proletarian labor while worrying about a capitalist’s profit margins. Keep grinding, wage slaves!

1. Here’s a ridiculous one for you.
   
   

Back when I was a supervisor in a Suzhou factory, we were losing staff left and right. Management told the boss: "Pay is too low, the work is too hard; we need to give them a raise."

The boss’s response? He rejected the raise and used that money to bring in Living Buddhas from Tibet to perform an exorcism/ritual at the front gate to fix the "bad vibes."

1. The so-called "labor shortage" is a hoax. The real problem is an unwillingness to improve pay or benefits, and a refusal to treat workers with basic human dignity.
   
   

Ten years ago, when I first started working in factories in the Pearl River Delta, many places would openly blacklist people from provinces like Henan, Guizhou, and Guangxi. You couldn’t get a job through official channels; you had to pay a middleman just to get in. That’s how arrogant they were back then.

Factories will always push workers to their physical limits without raising wages. If one "star" worker can do 4,000 pieces a day while everyone else does 3,000, the factory will inevitably cut the unit price. In the end, everyone is forced to do 5,000 pieces just to make less than they did for 4,000. People like that usually end up being hated by the entire workshop.

On an hourly assembly line, you can only imagine how fast they crank up the "engine." It’s exactly like Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times.

In many factories, even going to the bathroom requires a formal report and an "off-post permit." You have to pass through security and wait in line just to use the toilet.

You often see short videos claiming factories are struggling to find people for 10,000 RMB a month, but once they bait you into going there — like those small shops in the Haizhu District of Guangzhou — you realize it was all a lie.

Finally, a word of advice to young people: avoid the factory life if you can. Unless you are in a critical technical role, you’ll eventually be replaced by a robot. When that day comes and you’re unemployed, you’ll realize that after years in a factory, you don’t have any other skills to fall back on.

1. I used to work for a top-tier industry leader in China.
   
   

I saw with my own eyes over 500 workers arrive at the dorms with their families to start their jobs. Three days later, fewer than 150 remained on the roster. These people brought their entire families, thinking a "big factory" would provide stable income. Instead, driven by insane workloads and the arrogant, abrasive attitudes of low-level supervisors, they fled in the middle of the night. In this place, a worker with three months of experience is considered a "veteran," because 99% of people don't stay.

I saw with my own eyes elite graduates from 985 and 211 universities — hired as engineers — being "dispatched" to the assembly line to "learn" because the factory was short on manual labor. They worked 12-hour night shifts, and excluding meal times, spent 10 hours doing grueling mechanized labor — lifting boxes — six days a week for a month straight. And yet, this is a company that constantly brags about its "Smart Manufacturing."

I saw with my own eyes the leadership remove every single chair in the workshop just because "supervisors sometimes get lazy." Every worker was forced to stand for the full 12-hour shift; no squatting, no sitting allowed. The elite graduates were treated the same way. When I massaged my calves and asked "veteran" workers (with only a few months of seniority) if it hurt, they simply said, "Whose legs don't hurt? You just get used to it."

I saw with my own eyes the shoe cabinets outside the "cleanroom." You could see the dust and particles with the naked eye, and the stench was overwhelming. Yet, the leadership wouldn't even spend money on an exhaust fan, not that they ever bothered to walk down there themselves. Shoes and hats were recycled and reused; the "cleanliness" of the cleanroom was a joke.

Out of 30 fresh graduates dispatched there, two developed acute respiratory infections and over a dozen got athlete's foot. This "assignment" triggered a wave of mass resignations among the engineers; that batch of graduates currently has an 80% turnover rate.

I saw with my own eyes that the maximum allowed time for a "leave of absence" (break) within the workshop was 15 minutes — but it took 10 minutes just to walk to the exit. The water fountain was outside, so workers barely got a sip of water all night.

And since the fountain was less than five meters from the stinking shoe cabinets, I refused to drink from it unless my throat was literally parched.

I saw with my own eyes a worker lose an entire night’s wages just for breaking a single pane of glass. Meanwhile, the red banners outside the dorms screamed: "Roll up your sleeves and work hard; 10,000 RMB a month is within your reach."

When labor is scarce, they squeeze every drop out of you; when labor is plenty, they calculate how to lay you off. In the end, when they have enough people, everyone works at 120% capacity; when they don't, people quit in droves. A department that once had 30 people running themselves ragged now has only six people left, just lying flat to get through the day.

Why can’t they find workers? Because the people who make money sitting down don't treat the people who work standing up like human beings.

PS The ultimate irony: while the factory’s reputation is so toxic that they can’t even hire locals, the company somehow wins a "Best Employer" award every single year.

1. I’ve worked as both a production line worker and a factory HR, so I can give you a first-hand account of the situation.
   
   

Beyond the fact that workers aren't treated like human beings, there is another critical factor: the total collapse of trust in the labor market. From recruitment and onboarding to the actual work and final payment, every single step is a cycle of deception and oppression.

There are no effective legal channels to protect workers' rights. We see so many stories of workers failing to get their hard-earned money despite appeals. Since working as an HR recruiter, I’ve realized the truth: this is tacitly permitted. An "industrial powerhouse" needs a constant supply of "disposable consumables," doesn't it?

First, my experience as a worker:

Last year, I was suddenly laid off. My savings were running out, and no one would hire me, not even milk tea shops, which only wanted people under 26 (I was 27). Unable to pay rent and too proud to ask my family for money, I decided to "give up my white-collar pride" and head to a factory to get by.

The ad said the factory was in Guangzhou. Only after I got off the bus did I realize I’d been hauled away to Huizhou. I was stunned, but if I’d left then, I would have wasted the travel fare without earning a cent. I gritted my teeth and stayed. Because I’d been lied to, I had no luggage, so I had to buy a quilt, a mattress, and toiletries on-site.

(This is why there are so many vendors outside factories; they profit off people who were lured there by lies and have no choice but to stay and work.)

The supervisor saw I was a girl with "delicate" skin and assigned me to the "easiest" group. We cleaned phone screen glass by hand, slotting them into racks to be dipped in chemical solvents. It sounds easy, right? It was the easiest job there, yet it nearly killed me.

The Physical Toll: 12-hour shifts on a two-shift rotation. One hour for lunch. Standing the entire time — no chairs allowed.

The Environment: Non-stop, deafening noise. Even with earplugs, my head would buzz for hours after leaving.

The Damage: The cleaning chemicals were incredibly corrosive. The glass coming out of the high-temp wash was scalding. I tried wearing my own gloves, but the supervisor screamed at me, saying gloves would scratch the "precision instruments." After 14 days, my hands were literally rotting despite constant applications of hand cream.

The Sensory Deprivation: No phones allowed — they claim it’s for "trade secrets." Once you enter that workshop, you are cut off from the world for 12 hours. You lose all sense of time. I worked the night shift; every morning when I walked out and saw the rising sun, I felt like I was burning out, like my body was melting in the light. It was a dual agony of body and soul.

Before I went in, I was confident: "It's just standing, I can handle it. It's just 12 hours without a phone, I can entertain myself." You don't know the pain until you've lived it. Add to that the verbal abuse from supervisors and the vulgar, passive-aggressive environment from other workers. As someone who used to sit in an office, I had never seen anything like it. It was impossible to communicate with them on a human level.

After 14 days — which felt like a lifetime — I was paid 1,860 RMB. That’s roughly 132 RMB a day, or less than 12 RMB per hour. When I demanded to know why the promised rate of 19 RMB/hour wasn't met, they claimed I was "too slow," my "productivity was too low," and because I didn't stay a full month, they were entitled to dock my pay to the 12 RMB rate. I have never felt so cheap in my life.

Then, my experience as an HR:

In July, after leaving a foreign trade company, I took an HR job, not realizing it was for a factory. That’s when I truly understood why they can’t find workers.

Factory recruiters shouldn't be called "Human Resources." They are human trafficking cartels with a corporate veneer. The hourly rates in the ads are fake. The locations are fake. The photos of the work environment are fake.

Applicants usually want a job near home. They ask the HR if the factory is local, and the HR says yes just to get them there. In reality, the buses are already scheduled for specific factories.

Everyone who shows up that day gets herded onto a bus and sent to one location, regardless of what city they wanted. People realize they've been conned once they arrive, but like I was, they are often at the end of their rope and just "accept their fate." It’s an entire predatory industry chain: physical exam fees, bus fares, selling daily necessities.

I asked my colleagues, "Won't we get in trouble for lying like this?" The boss slammed the table and said, "Every factory does this. If you don't lie, you won't find anyone."

I stayed for one month. I recruited 15 people and made 12,000 RMB (5,000 base + 500 per head). The office felt like a trafficking ring — counting "heads" on buses and learning mental manipulation scripts to manipulate workers into staying when they tried to quit.

Even though I tried to be honest with my recruits, my conscience couldn't take it, so I resigned. (I guess that’s why I’ll never be rich.)

This company has existed for ten years, has over a hundred employees, and is a "high-income taxpayer."

So, why can’t factories find workers?

The answer is obvious. If capitalists would rather "dump milk" than share wealth, and if recruiters act like outlaws beyond the reach of labor laws, then the best thing workers can do is "waste" their labor by staying away.

The reputation of an "Industrial Powerhouse" should not be built upon the marrow and blood of its workers.

Conditions like this have been common in China for decades at this point. The real news is that China is reaching the limit of how much it can gain from the traditional industrial capitalist model, this is why western countries deindustrialized because forcing workers into factories is a tough sell and radicalizes them. The only way China can navigate this is by continuing automation while also realizing that other third world countries are going to want to industrialize aswell and will be able to undercut chinese offers as the proletariat won't accept shitty wages anymore. Before people had no real understanding of capitalism or factory work so going from rural shithole peasantville to a shiny new factory was seen as a major step up, but now they are starting to realize it actually sucks dick. But China doesn't want to give up its role as the workshop of the world so its caught in a contradiction currently. It will be up to the communist party to properly resolve this contradiction if China wants to maintain its power and stability.

>>2786931
Awful. This is why I can't have that much faith in China, if they really meant what they say they would arrest all these fatcats and shoot them.

>>2786938
Why can't they just make conditions better? It sounds like most of the issues aren't even about pay, just how abysmal it is to work there. Why can't the bourgeois treat the workers a little better? I understand they're exploiters but surely they would make more money in the long term if they didn't have to try and hire more people every few days?

>>2786931
yeah but the wrong schizo told us all that china has achieved communism. it has ended exploitation of man on man and factories are paying proletarian wages and engaging in proletarian commodity production and investing in proletarian stock exchanges

>>2786943
Mostly because it makes the factory uncompetitive, in our current world industrial capitalism is basically playing hot potato with countries that haven't experienced how shit capitalism is. Places that are smart can outcompete factories that "respect" their workforces by simply exploiting their proles more than the other guy. In post-feudal countries this is effective because no one has any understanding of factory life, so as a result these nations can put other factories out of work by being more profitiable to invest into.

>>2786951
(me) I want to also add that the cheapness of the labor isn't the only way for a factory to outcompete others. One of the big reasons why China is still such an industrial powerhouse is because it has robust infrastructure and supply chains with rapidly increasing automation that maintains its competitiveness on the global stage. This is why it focuses so heavily on automation and robots so it can remain in competition with less industrialized nations with cheaper labor costs.

Facts. Chinese communist society is the only one both willing and able to transition to a society where labor naturally replenishes itself. Imagine a world where every countries population shrank over time except for Chinas, who's growth is exponential, given enough time the communists would overwhelm everyone else

>>2787445
Created a massive gender imbalance, created an internal enemy faction within (families who hated the restrictions and tried to keep the kids), compounded the effects of the demographic transition (less kids being had now would not be as big of an issue if more kids were alive in the past), weakened the pension system (decreasing population leads to greater strain on retirement systems always), created a massive propaganda win for NATO/The West (look at the Chinese killing their babies etc.) during the Cold War, the list goes on.

>>2787131
This is a retarded argument because all developed nations have failed to reach replacement birth rate. Unless you would like to claim that Somalia or Yemen or some other warzone is a paradise on earth because of their higher birthrates you'll need more to substantiate your claim.

thats just a random person ranting on the chinese equivalent of quora, not "an article" that examined the average condition thoroughly across the country

and yes a lot of factory work (especially exploiting rural migrant labor) can be pretty damn awful, thats standard capitalist dynamic at work
but on the other hand, these eventually get automated (or get outcompeted by automated factories and close), or there come a crackdown from the authorities, or they're forced to improve condition, or workers get truly fed up and come in the CEO office to sequester him and the authorities make an example out of him and send him to jail to calm everyone down
all statistics and metrics show that steadily things are improving, and work become higher quality and less harsh.

A day in a life of a chinese treatlerite

Why isnt rest of 3rd world copying this massively succesful model?

<Sovereign Control: China never surrendered its financial sovereignty. The state retained absolute control over its banking system, credit creation, and currency, meaning foreign capital could not dictate domestic economic policy.

<Forced Technology Transfer: China refused to remain a permanent sweatshop. It forced Western corporations into joint ventures, demanding they hand over intellectual property and manufacturing know-how in exchange for access to Chinese labor and markets.

<Reinvestment over Extraction: Instead of letting local oligarchs and foreign corporations offshore the profits (as happens in Latin America and Africa), China aggressively funneled the capital generated by cheap exports into massive infrastructure projects, domestic supply chains, and research and development.

>>2792370
Not everyone can survive without Western trade

>>2792412
National cuckoldry sure is more prevalent amongst capitalist governments, but having your own industries and having a national industrial policy is not communist exclusive

>>2792370
because to implement all of those policies requires the government to be led by an ideologically driven party with a long term vision for the country. most 3rd world countries aren't and in addition to that they:

1. are very small and can't survive without trade with the USA
   
2. are close enough to the USA that constant covert or overt interference by the USA is a legitimate concern
   
   

also in order to rise above developing country status countries need to maintain these policies for 30ish years. at the time when the PRC first implemented their version of those policies they had the protection of the USSR which they kept for good number of years, in addition to their advantageous geographic position (far away from the USA).

anyways, at the end of the day the objective of any developing nation in the world is to implement the policies you've outlined but the path to that will be different for each one depending on their material conditions.

>>2792370
>Why isnt rest of 3rd world copying this massively succesful model?
Because China is a proletarian republic.

He served two days in prison and six months under ‌house arrest, and was fined $50,000 and ordered to pay $33,600 in restitution to the Internal Revenue Service. During the case, his defense said he was suffering from an incurable lymphoma, which was in remission, and he was fighting for his life.

Thoughts on this interesting article about Xi's idea of "self-revolution"? It argues that he sees it as a method to maintain the party's effectiveness and ideology to avoid the USSR's fate or "democratization".
>The Soviet collapse remains one of his defining cautionary tales. Early in his tenure, he famously said that “nobody was man enough” to stop Mikhail Gorbachev’s failed reforms because they had stopped believing in communism. But he also sees poor governance as an important factor, arguing that the Soviet Communist Party “separated itself from the people and became a privileged bureaucratic group that only protected its own interests.”

>THE ROT WITHIN
>Autocracies have always struggled to control their own bureaucrats. Without an independent judiciary, a free press, or competitive elections, the system lacks many of the external checks that constrain official abuse elsewhere.
It's much easier to just let corrupt officials to do whatever they please, like they do in the West, and pretend that nothing happened. That's how you get very high corruption transparency metrics while get bridges and roads built in decades, unlike China which builds them in months.

Why have I even open the articile? It's the same stupid self-masturbatory shit Westoids love so much. Oh, communists fight corruption? It must mean they have 100x the corruption, because we don't fight corruption as much, and we congratulate ourselves every year that we don't have any notable corruption!

>>2801426
>>2801463
>Success could also resonate abroad. Xi does not frame self-revolution as a purely domestic project. He has presented it explicitly as a “powerful answer” to advocates of the “Western formula” of multiparty competition and separation of powers. Beijing has increasingly promoted self-revolution as a model to emulate, signing anticorruption cooperation agreements with dozens of countries and running political discipline training for officials from around the developing world.
Lmao, Westoids are about to experience China-backed anticorruption scandals, protests, coups and revolutions. I wonder how the Panama Papers published by China's journalists look like

>>2801426
>Xi’s focus on self-revolution may also make him less inclined toward major external gambles. Only months ago, he told the Central Committee that “corruption is the greatest threat our party faces”—not the United States, or Taiwan, or even the economy. The recent PLA purges, which will make any war harder to fight in the near term, reveal how deeply Xi remains preoccupied with corruption, loyalty, and institutional effectiveness. A leader consumed by domestic discipline and elite governance may pursue a foreign policy that is hard-edged and nationalistic, but he is also likely wary of truly high-stakes risks.

And this passage is authors' lack of education speaking. Both Lenin and Stalin, Mao and Ho Chi Mihn and Che Guevara, all said that imperialists are paper tigers, and that the real enemy are the traitors. Imperialists cannot do anything if there are no people who are willing to destroy their own countries for whatever retarded reason like "democratization", "market efficiency compared to plan", or simply for getting paid more

I've come to the conclusion that Xi is merely pretending to be retarded on the public stage, but he's actually a secret genius.
From the outside it looks like he's an authoritarian state capitalist bureaucrat and straigtforward ideological Dengist anti-communist.
Nothing could be further from the truth!
Socialism with Chinese characteristics is a total lie! But also not as I'll explain.
Xi is actually in fact actually existing L/Acc in action. He has recognised in the current era trying to avoid being capitalist is not merely foolish, but impossible. It would cripple any nation to try it.
Instead, he is utilising things which sound comedically self-contradicatory - "people's CEOs" and "communist billionaires" - as discardable tools to rapidly develop capitalism, technology, and industry as far as humanly possible.
Only then will 2 goals simultaneously be completed: It will cause the collapse of capitalism from the inside, as fast as it can be done, allowing for a post-capitalist, communist society to replace it. And on the flip side it will create the technology required for such a society to function - utilising the spiralling of capitalsim to generate the computing capacity and robotics tech for the possibility of UBI, robots doing manual labour, etc, etc which will facilitate communism.
When you view it this way, Temu and TikTok makes so much more sense. The shittiness is the point! It is anal cancer capitalism, to produce the $$$ for real technological projects while rotting global capitalism into it's worst and fastest format!
The only problem is what if he dies, and a genuine Dengist or neo-Maoist takes over? I hope he has prepared for this scenario.

What do we think about this? How do they even choose officials? It just seems like an excuse to pick and choose who the bosses want (not necessarly a bad thing)

>In appointing officials, the Party has adopted a rational approach with a greater emphasis on political integrity. It has adhered to the principle of selecting officials on the basis of both integrity and ability, with greater weight given to the former, and on the basis of merit regardless of background, and it is intent on appointing those who are dedicated, impartial, and upright. The Party has opposed the selection of officials solely on the basis of votes, assessment scores, GDP growth rates, or age, or through open popularity contests. It has strengthened the role of Party organizations in exercising leadership and final oversight in order to rectify misconduct in the selection and appointment of officials.

As of early May 2026, the Chinese Yuan (CNY) has strengthened significantly against the US Dollar (USD), reaching 3-year highs, while remaining relatively stable but slightly weaker against the Euro (EUR). The CNY strengthened 0.39% against the USD in the past four weeks to around 6.81 per dollar, while trading roughly 7.97–8.01 against the EUR.Yuan Against Dollar (CNY vs USD)Trend: The yuan hit roughly 6.81 per dollar, its strongest level since February 2023.Performance: Over the last 4 weeks (April-May 2026), the USD/CNY rate fell around \(0.39\%\) (meaning the yuan gained value).Drivers: Increased confidence in Chinese assets and a sharp drop in the US dollar index to below 98.Yuan Against Euro (CNY vs EUR)Trend: The Yuan has been stable or marginally lower against the Euro in the same period, with 1 EUR fluctuating around the 8.00 CNY level.Performance: In the last 7 days leading to May 8, 2026, the CNY remained stable, showing a slight \(0.12\%\) decrease.History: The rate has ranged roughly between 7.97 and 8.01 per Euro in the short term.SummaryThe yuan's strength is primarily driven by dollar weakness rather than a broad surge against all currencies, as shown by its steadiness against the euro despite sharp gains against the dollar.

>At the same time, however, misguided ideas have often cropped up, such as money worship, hedonism, ultra-individualism, and historical nihilism, online discourse has been rife with disorder, and certain leading officials have demonstrated ambiguity in their political stance and a lack of fighting spirit.

>explain why a stock market is communism without sounding schizophrenic

In this video, Ben Norton argues that China did not abandon socialism after the economic reforms launched by Deng Xiaoping in 1978. Instead, he presents China’s system as a form of “socialism with Chinese characteristics,” in which markets and private enterprise are permitted but remain subordinate to state direction. According to the video, Deng believed China was still economically underdeveloped after the Mao era and needed to modernize its productive forces. Rather than fully planning the economy in the Soviet style, China adopted a mixed system where the state retained control over the “commanding heights” of the economy—banking, infrastructure, energy, telecommunications, heavy industry, and land—while allowing limited market competition in less strategic sectors.

The transcript emphasizes that state-owned enterprises (SOEs) remain central to China’s economy. Norton argues that although private companies and stock markets exist, the largest and most strategic sectors are still dominated by public ownership and directed through state planning. He cites data showing that many of China’s largest corporations are SOEs and contends that their purpose is not maximizing profits, but supporting long-term national development, industrialization, employment, and macroeconomic stability. The video also discusses the influence of Chen Yun, who developed the “birdcage economy” metaphor: markets are allowed to function like a bird inside a cage, but the Communist Party determines the size and limits of that cage.

A major theme of the video is the contrast between China’s economic model and the highly financialized system of the United States. Norton argues that China prioritizes industrial growth, infrastructure, manufacturing, and poverty reduction over stock market performance. He notes that China’s stock markets have remained relatively stagnant compared to the dramatic growth of U.S. indexes like the S&P 500 and NASDAQ, which he interprets as evidence that the Chinese government does not organize policy around enriching shareholders. Instead, China’s economy relies heavily on state-owned banks, which direct credit toward industries viewed as strategically important. The transcript repeatedly contrasts this with the U.S., where corporations and investors rely heavily on capital markets and stock valuations.

The video also frames China’s development as a successful alternative to neoliberal capitalism. Norton points to China’s rapid industrialization, rising wages, and large-scale poverty reduction as evidence that the system has delivered broad material gains. He argues that capitalist countries in the Global South did not achieve similar outcomes despite embracing markets, suggesting that China’s success stems from state coordination rather than capitalism alone. Throughout the video, he contends that Chinese policymakers favor labor and social stability over private capital accumulation, and he presents government crackdowns on speculative finance, monopolistic behavior, and some billionaires as examples of the Communist Party subordinating capital to state priorities.

Finally, the transcript concludes that China’s economy should be understood not as a capitalist restoration, but as a distinct socialist model that uses markets instrumentally while preserving state control over strategic sectors. Norton argues that the Chinese government views finance and markets as tools for national development rather than ends in themselves. In his interpretation, the U.S. system prioritizes shareholder wealth and financial speculation, whereas China prioritizes industrial policy, social cohesion, and what the Communist Party calls “common prosperity.”

this guy should have had the "attention span" (0:34) to double check his subtitles for the benefit of deaf people, or, much more common, people who just have their speakers muted when watching his video. but yes he is correct.

Why is China being so selfish economically? It maintains protectionist, mercantilist and Keynesian policies. At the same time it criticizes and uses its immense power to pressure other nations, including poor and weak ones, to maintain free trade and open up its country to Chinese products that hollow out domestic industry.

Its just behaving like a typical hypocritical capitalist country. It calls for free trade while using domestic policies that are anti-free trade.

it's pretty funny I was called crazy when I suggested the USA would pass the torch to China and China would become the new "core" instead of acknowledging that capital has a center of gravity which can move from one global region to the other, I was hit with a bunch of metaphysical idealist babble about how only the west is spiritually capable of being the imperial core… and the worst part is you can never say any of this basic analytical stuff without nationalists treating it like team sports. I was neither trying to slander China as imperialist nor downplay the atrocities of the US when I said that. If part of AES winning means AES becoming the core, instead of the core having its own proletarian revolutions, then so be it! Maybe the USA will be more incentivized to have a revolution once it's re-industrialized, re-proletarianized, and no longer hegemonic. A good analysis continues to be vindicated by facts, regardless of who makes it, or for what motivations.

>>2812764
>Marx is infinitely more useful to capitalists than he is to workers
Someone on here once joked that if a chud went back in time and killed Marx, we'd live under socialism, because Capitalists would have never read Capital. I don't think that's true, but it is funny. Marx described capitalism scientifically. The first edition of capital circulated in Germany with only 1000 copies. Who read it? On >>>/edu/ we once had a big fight about this. One anon was insisting that workers voraciously read Capital while I actually cited the meager sales data, the purchasers mostly being people interested in economics, and Marx and Engels exchanging letters about the serialization of Capital in a French journal, which Marx hoped would cause it to reach more workers, since they have less free time, and Marx also thanking Carlo Cafiero for his summary of Capital, and Engels himself writing a synopsis of Capital. All of these suggest to me that Marx and Engels were worried that workers wouldn't actually read Capital, and it is for our era that we can perhaps speculate that porkies read Marxist theory more often than workers because they have more free time more resources at their disposal to help them understand. The workers' understanding of their own exploitation is obvious and felt viscerally on a day to day basis, rather than processed theoretically in an academic fashion. This is why Lenin suggested that the working class can only achieve trade union consciousness on its own and to go further you need a vanguard party to interact with the broader working masses.

>>2813252
Basically both the US and China don't want to repeat the "mistake" of letting the Global South industrialize as both countries face issues with the rate of profit. They don't want to create new "imperial cores" in SEA, South America, South Asia, Africa etc.

>>2813260
I don't know if that analysis makes sense… doesn't capital seek new markets when it has an issue with a falling rate of profit? As for industrializing other regions being a "mistake" it is only a "mistake" on a geopolitical level rather than an economic level if you let them become a "rival" or "near-peer" power. This happened with Japan in the 1850s. The US, through commodore Perry, forced open feudal Japanese markets with gunboat diplomacy, and within 40 years Japan was a power capable of defeating Tsarist Russia. The level of development was very fast. To the extent that capital can rapidly develop a country, the "core" is concerned about creating rivals, so they have to balance the new markets they can exploit with that defense concern. But they're still going to do it anyway, they just have to make sure the nation defense concern limits the economic concern, or else they'll repeat the Japan "mistake"

>>2813265
i encourage everyone to ignore this anon and read what I actually said and not his crummy strawman greentext

I've met many Chinese and all of them tell me they don't want to go back. You can't openly criticize the government. Some areas of China have developed while others remain poor. There's also slave labor there, and a booming plastic surgery industry. Don't forget the 996 culture, and the youth not wanting to work.

China is just a combination of privately owned property and state owned property, both capitalist.

new bit: Third World Unc podcast

President Trump’s visit to China has ended.

I had predicted that there would be no tangible outcome from that trip:

Trump is coming to Beijing with his cap in his hand. He, as usual, will try to bluff a way to ‘victory’. He will proceed as if the U.S. were in a great position. The Chinese will be polite, but won’t have any of it.

There have been little preparations for the trip. The sherpas did not convene beforehand to straighten out serious issues between the countries. There are no big contracts or treaties to sign.

One hope had been to sell some 500 Boeing jets to several Chinese airlines. Returning from the trip Trump has claimed that China would buy 200 airplanes. The Chinese Foreign Ministry declined to confirm that. Boeing’s stock price dropped.

Some 20 company bosses had joined Trump on the trip. But there seem to have been no plans or tasks for any of them. No deals were made, no contracts were signed.

Trump offered to lift the U.S. blockade on the sales of some older NVIDIA AI chips to China. China declined as it now makes its own chips with similar characteristics.

The Chinese side spoke of a “new positioning” and a “constructive strategic stability” as major outcomes of the talks.

The “new positioning” is seeing the U.S. and China as equals with China being objectively in a better position.

The “constructive strategic stability” could be interpreted as an advise to the U.S. to shut up and stay quiet while China is doing its thing:

President Xi clearly pointed out that “constructive strategic stability” means positive stability with cooperation as the mainstay, healthy stability with competition within proper limits, constant stability with manageable differences, and lasting stability with expectable peace. These “four stabilities” paint a clear and feasible blueprint for China-US relations. It is not a stopgap measure, but a long-term approach. It is not a zero-sum game, but a mutual benefit and win-win cooperation. The “four stabilities” lead strategic stability with a constructive attitude and safeguard long-term development through strategic stability, fully demonstrating that China-US relations are a relationship between major powers fully capable of helping each other succeed and prospering together.

While Trump was in China some 30 Chinese ships moved through the Strait of Hormuz in coordination with the Iranian authorities. Given that Trump was in China the U.S. blockaders in the Arab Sea did not dare to make attempts to stop those ships. This has thus has set a precedence which will allow continues Chinese shipping.

For China the Strait is open.

america is killing itself and you want chinese proles to die for you and to do your proletarian revolution for you. "WHY ISNT XI SENDING HIS WORKERS TO DIE FOR ME? WHY ISNT HE STARTING GLOBAL THERMONUKE WAR TO LIBERATE ME?" grow up. you should be taking advantage of the moment but instead you're complaining a different country isn't doing it for you. just like you outsourced all the jobs to china you want to outsource the revolution too.

all they got is le handshake meme. sometimes a handshake is a ring kiss. they'd learn this if they weren't idealists who judged books by appearances.

I must admit it was satisfying to see Trump get humbled by a true statesmen. Narcissists always have a "death star vent" (if you'll forgive the pop culture reference, the one thing that pierces their otherwise adamantine armor of shamelessness. For Trump that is Xi, a clearly more intelligent yet strong leader with enormous leverage over the US.

perhaps american porky is sober enough to realize they'd actually lose an existential conflict with china

>>2814041
i saw one of these chinese commenters suggest that US planners know that re-unification of some sort is inevitable. so the plan will be to shit the place up so that taiwan becomes a poison pill to re-integrate. this means making sure all the profits from the semicondocter industry stay in the US. this means supporting pro-independence and student groups. not enough to gain actual independence. but enough to hassle and and drain resources for beijing.

The deals China has made with Africa greatly benefit China. Africa is on the losing side. There is literal slavery in China (yes Chinese people so what). And the reason they have not mlitarily expanded is because that would lead to war against the US.

>>2813487
The party allows both the bourgeoisie and proletarians to join, over 9% of the Chinese population is in the CPC. Even the liberal wing of the CPC at this point acknowledges the consequence of this as a departure from proletarian socialism into "a results based“ socialism of the type post-1914 european social democrats and New Dealers like Bernie Sanders would advocate for.

>>2814275
The CIA can only intervene on behalf of those social forces it deems favorable to its interests, those of the aggregate of the unitedstatesian bourgeoisie. It has therefore historically only been able to help one side against the other, with failures and successes. The main decisive factors behind the victory of those social movements still lie within society itself. That was the case in most of the examples I brought up. In most of the former Warsaw Pact countries, CIA help was minimal or superfluous to the larger picture. Where the CIA plays a larger role is in coopting the results of these movements and ideological direction.

>>2814288
We call that the based proletarian export of capital

>>2814282
And the results speak for themselves, because communism isn’t a set of utopian policies but the REAL MOVEMENT

>>2814307
Really, is that why the Seepissy raised the retirement age in China? Because everyone was getting rich before they got old?

nah see whats gonna happen is china being the only nation that has the will and capability of social change will tweak chinese society in a way that naturally encourages the labor pool to replenish over time at the same time every other global population is declining and will eventually replace the planet with Chinese long term

It’s literally the same success as America in the 1950s, China will be in the exact same spot America is in right now in 50 years

>>2814326
In imperialism, retirement age increases and life span decreases like france. In Communist China, life span increases and retirement age increases in scientific proportion. When china starts 3d printing organs and cybernetic body parts and lifespan increases to 200 years, retirement CANNOT be ~150 years.

>>2814342
Drill a hole in your head and pour chili oil, it’ll make smarter

Okay look I get the point of SWCC, and while I dont agree with it I can at least appreciate the strategy of state planned capitalist development to get ahead of the competition. But at this point where China is happily talking about "peaceful coexistance" and trade relations with THE empire without so much as blinking, I'm not really sure what about China makes them socialist other than the ruling party being called the communist party and flying a lot of red flags. It's a successful state sure, but that's not socialism.

>>2814355
Seems like you haven't kept up with the sweeping measures the Chinese government to reform the education system, such as outlawing private cram schools completely and forcing rotations on teachers to ensure uniform educational quality.

Ok buddy.

>>2814383

>Republicans aren’t anti education, they’re pro private and religious education

This is wrong. They are pro-private education only insofar as to who can afford it. When it comes to 90% of the people on the planet that are not able to afford a comprehensive education their views are strictly identical to yours. Abolishing public education means effectively abolishing education for ever prole.

>>2814388
Is the reason why you oppose biology lessons for children that it makes it harder for you people to abuse them?

>>2814508
>China literally saved American capitalism
lol you construct this narrative one-sidedly and undialectically without considering the alternative or what was at stake. What China did was make America dependent on Chinese productive forces while slowly weakening America's capacity to defend itself. It was the strategically wise move in an era where the CIA would just coup your country and plunge it into barbarism if you weren't an American orbiter. I've explained this hundreds of times on here and I never get any real counter arguments, just the same idealist whining about how it would have happened better in your head if you were in charge. From the perspective of a baby leftist, all smart moves are opportunism, and all badass self righteous suicide is ideologically pure.

Are you saying that China helping Africa to develop is imperialism, again? When all the capitalist nations in the world instead vacuuming up African money, invest into cheapest possible manual labor in Africa, and reinvest profits into American AI companies?

>>2814554
when i say china i clearly mean the chinese government, the people you complain aren't doing enough you pedantic goon. if you actually meant the chinese proletariat isn't doing enough to stop america that's even more deranged. the only proletariat with the power to stop a nuclear-armed government is its own. stop expecting the based JDPON to show up and stop america for you, if you're a burger. you have to liberate yourself. if that sounds "nationalist" i'm sorry, that's the nature of the post-1945 world.
>>2814557

yes

i think only time can tell here. your suspicion is warranted but your conclusion is premature.
> Btw China has been moving into export of capital for the past few years
i hate this reduction of imperialism to simply "exporting capital"
every nation "exports capital."
what does it actually mean? net exports? having dependent markets? imperialism is advanced monopoly capitalism. it is a global system. And AES nations exist within an imperialist context and are forced to seize power within an imperialist context. especially after nukes. it's not 1917 anymore. it's not even 1945 anymore.
>>2814561
>Are you saying that China helping Africa to develop is imperialism, again? When all the capitalist nations in the world instead vacuuming up African money, invest into cheapest possible manual labor in Africa, and reinvest profits into American AI companies?
Anons have this confusion because they are unable to distinguish the anti-developmental loan sharking of the US with the let's be generous to them and call it "social imperialism" of China which actually rapidly develops dependent nations the same way the US did with Japan in the 19th century, before it realized this is a "mistake" in terms of pure sociopathic zero sum game theory, because it results in "near peer rivals"

>>2814564
capitalism has been imperialism globally for over 100 years. the mistake here is looking at "imperialist" as a boolean variable belonging to the country object.

>>2814566
>>2814564
Anons straight up declare that acting not like a capitalist country means you are a capitalist country. It's that simple. Everyone plunders Africa to invest profits into America - and if China doesn't do this, this means that China plans to do this anyway!

Westerner always amaze me with the arrogance they are judging another socialist project while never having themselves staged a successful revolutionary project ever.

>conclusion is premature
I didn't conclude that they won't transition into socialism at one point, but that would require a revolution on the part of the Chinese proletariat, which puts China in the same boat as other countries. Maybe it's possible that the government will aid the class in its endeavour if the time comes, but I'm not optimistic given their current corporatist stance on labor organizing and how widespread revisionism is in the party.

let's steelman the ultras instead of strawmanning them. i.e. let's charitably interpret their assertion that china is "imperialist" and agree. Now let's critique that statement by its own logic and take it to its natural conclusion.

Is "imperialism" just a boolean variable that you can switch on and off like light in a room?

Is it a pejorative insult for countries you don't like?

these aren't rhetorical questions. Actually use your brains and answer them.

no, imperialism is a global system, and if china is "not" socialist then why are you begging for it to act like a socialist.

No the criticism of china is all of a tone which implies that they're doing something immoral, while implying that they could be doing things differently, yet the same people who take this tone explicitly say china isn't socialist. by that logic they are capitalist, imperialist, and can act no other way until the proletariat does something about it. but these people bring the proletariat not one step closer to doing that.

But let's interpret the ultras charitably again and imperialism really is something that is a quality of the country rather than a global system. it's a thing china is, rather than the world. imperialism can be turned on and off for reach country. that begs the question, is the "chinese" imperialism different than the "american" imperialism? Why for example does china do loan forgiveness? why does china build road, schools, and hospitals in dependent countries? Why doesn't China coup, sanction, embargo, or bomb countries? Why doesn't china do structural adjustment programs? It seems that given a choice between "chinese" imperialism and "american" imperialism the national boureoisie of the global south always choose the "lesser" evil and the "better" deal. Why is that?

>>2814611
>Because they market themselves as such
so you believe in the marketing of a (by your logic) capitalist country? that's dumb.

>>2814616
your priorities are completely wrong in this situation. if china really is capitalist and not socialist, then stop begging your class enemies to do real socialism for you

if china is really socialist and not capitalist, then your disagreements with them should be purely of a nature of critical support, that they are taking the wrong path in their quest for socialism

but ultras want it both ways. they want to criticize china wihtout doing anything themselves, but they also want to treat china as a class enemy worthy of destruction rather than an ally worthy of criticism.

they also treat imperialism as a light switch that individual countries can turn on and off rather than the global quality of the mode of production. they say "exporting cheap crap to american fatasses" is imperialism because imperialism is "when you export capital"

>>2814617
do you want me to say "that was bad" as if they are a socialist country doing socialism wrong or do you want me to say "they are capitalist, they are imperialist, and must be destroyed"?

>>2814607
>It seems that given a choice between "chinese" imperialism and "american" imperialism the national boureoisie of the global south always choose the "lesser" evil and the "better" deal

>>2814657
Half the people USSR supported were communists only in name, easily switching sides whenever it was convenient for them. Besides, USSR was playing stupid games, like putting millions large military on Chinese border and trying to encircle China - alongside USA. All of this merely because China didn't condemn Stalin.

Like, come on now. Losing democratic Chile was obviously bad, but pretending like Chileans felt much change? Please.

Afghan communists actually wanted to be like DPRK in being a neutral country between China and USSR. Besides, Afghani mujahideen and Pakistani ones were a different thing, with Afghanis fighting Pakistani ones, and even today Pakistani mujahideen are anti-China and are rabidly pro-US, while Afghani ones are no worse than Iran's Ayatollah.

All China's support to Duterte amounted to construction equipment that might have been used for building military bases. We went over the files, lmao

>>2814657
I didn't go silent on it. here's my answer, china shouldn't have supported those things, but the US was still doing way more material actions to actually make it happen. like the afghan mujahideen were shooting down soviet helicopters with american stingers, not chinese weapons. until china literally has 800 offshore bases and is couping, sanctioning, embargoing, invading, loan sharking, union busting, etc. every single socialist country, it is the "lesser" "evil". i can whittle both those words down to the bare nub of their meaning if you want.

>>2814652
>Told y'all that peaceful reunification was in the best interest of all parties except for a couple of butthurt KMT nationalist hardliners.
Those guys have been dead as a tendency for years. It's either people that want peace with the Mainland or pro-Japanese separatists. There's probably a fuckton of Japanese dark money that's been sent to Taiwan to prop up pro-independence sentiments at least since the 1990s. Recently, Taiwan inaugurated a Shinzo Abe memorial, complete with Japanese flags. I think if Chiang had to choose between the "Communist bandits" and the literal descendants of pro-Japanese collaborators, he'd choose the former in a heartbeat.

Today I will remind them:

>>2814809
you never have anything to add to a conversation. your existence is purely subtractive

The reason leftists are so easily convinced China is socialist is because they basically have no problem with capitalism as long as it "delivers the goods". Remember these are the same people who slobbered over Bernie not too long ago . As long as theres economic growth and wage increases, leftists are happy.

Ironically, thats the same reason communism hasnt made progress almost anywhere in the world, because in the past 50 years, the vast majority of countries have seen massive improvements in standard of living. Most people are far more motivated by identity politics (muh nation, muh religion, muh revanchism, muh ethnicity).

>>2814777
>like the afghan mujahideen were shooting down soviet helicopters with american stingers, not chinese weapons
China actually was the source of most of the small arms for the Mujahideen. You can see it in the photos, a lot of Chinese made AKs, RPDs, etc. It takes a bit of gun autism to spot, but most of the rifles in this photo for example are Chinese (the easiest way to identify them is the lack ofba muzzle break and a fully hooded front sight). The basic system was Chinese weapons, bought with American money, delivered by Pakistan.

china does things in china's self interest, which is not a bad thing, but it's not the liberator of the proletariat either.

yeah, while the medic goes over to the mass shooter's house for beer every night too, and continues to do so.

to pretend that china is just completely helpless and unable to do anything but watch on while the US does atrocities is insulting to both our intelligence. It still falls on the american proletariat to stop the US.

i suggest you stop drinking so much alcohol

>>2814906

>>2814825
stop drinking and quit begging for nuclear hellfire while slandering the real movement

>>2814907
I agree actually but you should still stop drinking

Kill yourself Lassalle

What makes China so attracted to zionism? Do they just enjoy watching some brown children get murdered or are stolen palestinian homes such a lucrative piece of property to make money with?

>>2814911
everyone finds you unpleasant

>>2814915
why do you ask loaded questions? do you just enjoy wasting our time?

>>2814921
Die mad about it

A true communist warrior with dengoid characteristics would say that China has never heard of Israel and has already pressed the communism button since they totally believe in the marxist vision and holy texts

>>2814823
Yes, why?

>>2814400
you're going to drink yourself to death

>the global south have all killed each other off in racial holy wars
Don't see much of this, though? It's First World that murdered each other this way

Could someone give me a quick rundown on the hukou system? Dividing the populace into strictly defined urban and rural classes with distinct rights seems totally antithetical to communism, but I'm open to the idea that there's nuance I'm missing as an outsider.

Baizuos glaze China while simultaneously championing policies that the CPC itself vehemently rejects.

What did Xi say about welfare? He said "fight welfarism". "Welfarism leads to stagnantion and lack of spirit in development". He cited the example of stagnating Latin American countries.

What do Western baizuo leftists (who make up 90% of leftists) say about welfare? The exact opposite of course. To add insult to injury, they even valorize the lumpenproles.

What does China do about immigration? They have very low immigration rates and almost no naturalization of immigrants. What do Western leftists do about immigration? They call for open borders that destroy wages and cause social strife.

What does China do about religion? They officially hold a position of state atheism. 93% of Chinese are atheists. China cracks down on religions if they start getting reactionary like Xinjiang Islam and Tibetan Buddhism.

What do Western Baizuo leftists do? The exact opposite. They make excuses for religion, and even downplay the reactionary ones.

What does China do about crime? They are extremely harsh on crime, even allegedly "based" crimes like robbing stores. What do leftists do about crime? They make excuses for it, and pursue soft-on-crime policies.

I wish the leftists in my country were CPC type leftists rather than worthless Baizuos.

Western Leftism is a cancer on World Leftism.

The ACP will cleanse this cancer, first from America, then the world.

>Baizuos glaze China
Do they, though?

if you think about it the CPC is just a cheap copy of the mexican PRI during ISI

Doesn't the U.S. have a higher incarceration rate than China? Even with soft on crime policies? The American people must be the world's most criminal reprobates. Another 100 billion to the prison industry, please.
