I like asking questions that trigger value dissonance. I know this site loves everything about communism and thinks uncritically about it, and it also loves everything gay and sexually liberatory, unless of course it's pedophilia then it goes full Chris Hanson, unless a mod is accused of it then it sweeps it under the rug like the holmodor or classicide. Ideology of peace my ass, I want to make my takes and not get banned for it, but this site is ran by freedom hating freaks. You know your arguments can't win so you ban debate. To whoever actually reads this shit, question who actually controls this site, what they preach, what you believe in. I promise you an ideology from the 1800s isn't the answer.

      Feudalism is a lot older than that and it's making a resurgence too.

            Marx would have written an even longer rebuke of it that he did of Stirner's egoism in the German Ideology.

            Please, elaborate, what is 'the stuff'?

            ayn rand's objectivism is built on metaphysical axioms regarding existence

              I know Rand liked Aristotle, I know she disregarded anything you couldn't observe, that's metaphysics.

    I still get thousands of hits for "Chinese" on the porn search so I have no idea what you're talking about.

    Outright bans don't work, and they don't magically start to work when a socialist government does them, but as always it's a question of how the implementation of those bans effects people in the real world that's important. China has seen massive improvements towards equality between the sexes since it's been under Communist rule, and the ban on pornography has been a part of that trend, and if/when the time comes to get rid of it I believe that their government is far more capable of making that decision than any government poisoned by Capital.

    But you don't really care about people's opinions on porn in China because you're more interested in wrecking.

        we can't do that

        You thinking it's at all difficult to talk to a Chinese person online about anything only proves that you have literally never tried.

          Mainland Chinese, there's a language barrier and great firewall. Hong kongers don't really count. The people that know English are a minority.

            There are many people in mainland China that speak English well enough to have conversations about this stuff, again, you're proving nothing other than you have never tried and therefore are lying when you say you'd like to have those conversations. You'd rather stick with whatever assumptions you've already made.

    So they control Western Imperialist influence on their society, because everything will be leveraged by the imperialists. Everything. As a student of history you know this.

    Maybe if the utterly dominant hegemon and it's clients didn't have the stated aim of destroying the Chinese project from it's inception it would have developed more to your liking.
