Do they really think China is gonna just stick with capitalism as it says outright that it plans to transition? Do they think that this video, conflicting with the imperial narrative, is critical enough to be a net benefit against China?

Really makes you thunk 🤔

    Doesnt bloomberg write with actual capitalists in mind? Probably not in their best interest to lie about the state of things.

      Yes it's this.

      When your audience is the finance bougies you want to ACTUALLY inform them. They do not lie to themselves when money is on the line.

      What you're looking at here @cpfhornet is the two tier system of news. Mass consumption media for the workers and paywalled actually-educational content for the bourgeoisie. This one being outside the paywall is simply an exception for Bloomberg as it wants to leverage youtube for advertising.

        What I find interesting is the balance of actual information here with clear attempts to maintain the imperial line on the many levels of ongoing western soft power expansion/preservation propaganda projects. It doesn't yield a very coherent message, and I guess what I take from it is that the bourgeois class is in motion in ways it hasn't been in decades. Perhaps we will see a schism for the first time since the fall of the Soviet Union. Interesting times...

        I am in full agreement with you though, solid take!

          If a schism occurs in the international bourgeoisie we'll see wars between formerly allied countries and within those wars the bourgeoisie on each side will fund the anti-war movements of their opponents.

          If we see a schism we will see opportunities for real ML-led revolutions arise and should be preparing ourselves for that eventuality. It will be the first time since '91 that the conditions return back to favour for us, a schism will create decisions among the bourgeoisie to fund the destabilising opponent of their enemies - which is us or fascists, depending on the country and conditions.
