Comment on Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?
Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 2 months agoChina most definitely has billionaires in cahoots with the government. Evergrande is a great example of this. Asianometry did a great video on how deep it goes with receipts.
I’ve had two discussions with ml users about the Uyghur camps which were not able to address the base of my concerns. While they are definitely very exaggerated in size, the notion that they don’t exist seems unfounded.

Imperialism is when billionaires. The more billionaires you have the imperialister it is
Also redsails.org/china-has-billionaires/
Sounds like you were concern trolling, because the burden of proof is on the accuser

Your statement about China not having a financialist capital class seemed slightly out of touch so I provided you with examples of some Chinese capital class. Communism is when not billionaires. The more Billionaires you have to less communism it is.
As for the imperialism I only hear the same argument as for Western imperialism: someone drew lines on a map 200 years ago and it said Xinjiang and Tibet were part of China. So despite them speaking a different language it’s now 100% ours for rizzle.

I read a bit of the link and it was mostly mid mumbling that mentioned faults of China and then moved on as if addressing them solves them.
Then it proceeded to misdiagnose what greed is and pretend capitalism is a system designed around greed instead of greed being innate to humans.
Then I stopped because it doesn’t answer any of the questions.
