Its like Hillary walking into a working class kitchen for the first time.
They’ve been shielded from even critical support of China and other AES for so long they literally, not figuratively, literally cannot process that people exist that have beliefs that aren’t Reddit Approved. They immediately assume it’s bots or wumao. Human beings can’t possibly hold these beliefs, so they must be Oriental hordes or actual robots.
If you think the CCP is genuinely dedicated to communism I cannot take you seriously.
It’s CPC and of course they are, there’s no reason to believe otherwise apart from being a dumb little racist baby who thinks only white people can do socialism properly.
It’s CPC
What are you on about, it’s both?

Maybe the fact it’s a dictatorship with no power to the people? Tell me, what Chinese factory workers own their means of production?
Call me a racist? Cuba and Burkina Faso are true attempts at socialism, while the USSR under Stalin was not (Lenin was good though).
CPSU, CPV, CPK, etc… CCP is a weird, racist neologism coined by the west to emphasize the “Chinese” part of the moniker. CPC is the standard nomenclature.
You clearly don’t know a damn thing about socialism that you didn’t learn from breadtube
So you want Xi to press the communism button?
On a serious note, through a communist party controlled state, Chinese workers clearly have greater control over the means of production than workers anywhere else in the world. That’s why they were able to use the resources their own labor created to do things like have an effective covid response.
Oh hey it’s you again, I think you forgot to answer me in the other thread as well: what is your solution to the Ukranian puppet government’s ongoing genoicide in the Donbas?
Honestly if Russia ONLY invaded Donbas I think I would support that. But you guys are clearly warmongerers that want as many dead Ukrainians as possible.

This doesn’t even make any sense. People normally criticize us for wanting Ukraine to surrender to end the war – are you just making this up, or??
you guys are clearly warmongers that want as many dead Ukrainian as possible.
That is so offensive, don’t compare us to Zelensky, please.
How could Russia ‘invade’ Donbas if they were invited? You’ve been asked this several times and avoided answering every one.
Few people here think that the CPC is “genuinely dedicated to communism”. It is a party with millions of members, including communists, liberals, nationalists, and others (happy to chat about the specific major factions in the party if you’re interested). Many in the party are not ardent communists, and have mediocre to poor historical and political literacy from the perspective of a lot of the Marxist nerds on here.
Some people look at the party and see “hey they’re called communists, and many of them are communists, sure as hell better than whatever is going on in the US or wherever” and kinda hop on board with some enthusiasm that way.
I think they’re pretty clearly dedicated to communism. It’s a long process and a lot of work, especially in a hostile world. Anything I read where they state their intentions perfectly matches their actions. The challenge will be when the actual expropriations begin. The capitalist backlash will be extremely violent.
Overall yes I’d agree that the communists are winning, I like most of what Xi is doing personally and respect him far more than any other world leader.
At the same time the ideological discipline isn’t there in the same way that it was during the Maoist period. Liberals and business owners are allowed to be party members. I don’t think it’s wise to give them such a foothold, but I don’t know enough to comment much further or offer any useful criticism.
At the end of the day, I’d love to see the PRC introduce a worldwide expansion of socialist principles as much as anyone else here, although my hope is more cautious than other comrades here. As you say, the result speak for themselves, and they still have a couple decades of runway to dial in their targeting systems and fire off the communism button at the right time.
It’s an odd thing to think, like I said there are many communists, but it’s far from everyone, and the politics are not as straightforward as they are here on our site where we aren’t actually in charge of anything.
Many academic Marxists comment on this, read Wang Hui as an example
Few people here think that the CPC is “genuinely dedicated to communism”.
See other comments, but I would suggest that statement is overly broad on it’s own. There is a large liberal continent within the party, although they are still on their heels.
Right? All these fucking tankies don’t even believe that there’s a current genocide against the Mongolians
Bunch of fucking insane nutcases here
