  • I think the flaw is human nature. All governments and organizations are corrupt. All implementations are always twisted to suit the greed of individuals.

    Please take your nickname seriously for a moment and do some critical thinking about what you just said.

    “Human nature” being greedy and corrupt is a completely horrible and wrong argument that only serves to keep us desillusioned about change. Saying that human nature is greedy and corrupt while currently living in a capitalism system is the same as studying human nature inside a coal mine and coming to the conclusion that it must be human nature to cough your lungs out. Our environment have a deep influence on us and you can’t just ignore that.

    If you really want to argue about human nature, the simple fact that we are social creatures that often help each other out of empathy and compassion already negates your argument.

    It’s entirely possible to create policy and enforcement mechanisms that would mitigate or eliminate excessive greed but nobody with anything votes for it because they’ll lose out on their own personal greed by their measure.

    Voting will not change the system, you cannot change it from within. The capitalist class might give us a few breadcrumbs here and there to keep us from revolting, but they will always do everything to keep the system as it is because it benefits them as a class.

    This is not an individual issue. As much as some individuals are horrible pieces of shit, these interests are collective and shows the class struggle in society.



  • It was the fucking people in China making the comparison! Come on. You keep ignoring this in order to just say westerners are evil.

    Ignoring? I literally addressed that in my previous comment. I’m not gonna repeat myself. And I’m not saying westerners are evil. As much as I hate using these moral terms like good, bad and evil, if I were to use it it would be to say that the west is evil, not the westerners.

    Clean, meaning morally, no he isn’t. Kind, not so much. He presents as if he’s a perfect story book character, like Pooh Bear (hence the comparison), but he wouldn’t still be in power if this were the case.

    Yeah yeah, keep changing the meaning of words to only fit how you see it on your head. And really? He’s still in power because he presents himself as “clean and kind”? Like, really? First you say he’s a dictator, now he’s only still in power because se presents himself well. Which one is it? And that aside, do you really believe he’s only in power because he presents himself well? Like, really?

    The people in China recognize this, which is why they started the comparison. It spread to the west because of the outsized response to it.

    A single meme is not representative of the will of the Chinese people. By this logic I can say the USians are nazi because of how much Pepe exploded in popularity. It’s beyond silly.

    It was funny how insulted he was by this that it started being banned, so it spread because his fragile ego couldn’t handle it.

    First of all, Winnie the Pooh was never banned in China, it is still a very popular character there.

    Second of all, you lack understanding of how Chinese society works. China, and some other asian countries do not simply speak ill of their leaders and representatives. It’s a cultural thing. Which is not to say that they don’t criticize them, they do, but it is completely different than the rest of the world.

    And finally third, if people started representing Obama with the image of a gorilla, let’s say, from Tarzan. Wouldn’t that be racist? Wouldn’t that be censored and ban worth in most places? So stop with the double standard bullshit. Just realize you’re racist against asians and do some introspection.

    For everything else you said I already have replied previously.

    You’re incredibly unserious and I’m not losing my time engaging with you any further.


  • Prove it? Sure. It’s a system where the singular ruling party controls elections and all candidates must be approved by them. If that’s not a dictatorship then I’ve never heard of one.

    A single party system is not inherently undemocratic, we communists believe in democratic centralism. The CPC is the dominant party in China, but there are multiple other parties in the country.

    You can argue it provides utility or stability or something if you want, but arguing it isn’t a dictatorship shows how ignorant you are. Of course it’s exactly what I’d expect though.

    No, it shows how ignorant YOU are, since you clearly don’t even understand how different political systems can be democratic. Your vision of democracy is limited and is easily dismantled by showing how in the US, for example, you have basically a two-party system that at the end of the day serves the same purpose, to continue to impose the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie upon the working class, or how you libs call it, “western democracy”. Your lack of class analysis in China’s system fails to account for how the CPC represents the proletariat instead of the bourgeoisie and how that completely changes the inner functions of said country and society.

    I don’t know how the west doing anything bad is relevant to this conversation. It was never part of the discussion and is purely a red-herring to distract from your bad faith argument.

    You can’t be serious, right? You can’t simply point fingers at a country with a bunch of false claims and not expect a direct comparison with how the rest of the world does stuff to dismantle the argument. The implication in this discussion is that China and the CPC is a bad evil dictatorship that oppresses people and curbs their freedom of speech. By pointing out how the west does things I’m providing a counter argument of the false claims. You can’t simply claim a bunch of stuff in a vacuum without directly comparing with how the it in the rest of the world, it’s disingenuous. Do you not understand how arguments work?

    Also, once again, the Pooh Bear thing is from China. It isn’t racist. It has nothing to do with race. Prove it is, since you’re asking for proof of basic stuff we all know.

    Oh stop playing dumb. You know very well that it is racist to associate a Chinese person with a yellow character. Also, it doesn’t matter where it comes from. Pepe and the Ok sign didn’t start as hate symbols, both were turned into one. If you can’t see how westerners constantly calling and depicting Xi Jinping as Pooh isn’t racist, then you’re the racist.

    It’s making fun of him being fat and the way he presents himself as clean and kind.

    Oh so according to you it’s not racist, it’s just fatphobic AND racist since by saying he “presents clean and kind” you’re implying he is neither of those things. Definitely not racist to imply that a Chinese person is unclean and unkind. Fuck off.


  • Criticizing or making fun of a nations leader is not racist. In fact, the comparison originates from China.

    Then go ahead, actually criticize Xi instead of associating him with a yellow bear, which is definitely not racist, no no no, not racist at all.

    You’ll just go back to your echo chamber where anything critical of dictators is bad and must come from the west. They’ll probably agree with you, despite it being incredibly easy to learn more.

    LMAO, then fucking prove China is a “dictatorship”. You libs keep repeating the same “China bad”, EBIL SEESEEPEE with zero self awareness of how the west is actually looting, underdeveloping and actively destroying the rest of the world.
