To put it more clearly. Parts of the American bourgeoisie have significant interests within China. We already know a split has occurred within the American bourgeoisie because of this but it is very likely that these bourgeoisie have in fact aligned themselves politically with the interests of China against the United States, providing material assistance to groups within the US seeking to turn it towards China.
The "crypto" part is that their cabal is secret. This means that nobody reallllllly knows who is and who is not part of this group.
The bourgeoisie whose interests aren't necessarily aligned in one direction or another are likely to pick a side based on who they think will win anyway as it provides them the most influence.
Meanwhile over in Europe the European bourgeoisie have aligned themselves to peaceful activities with China and appear to be planning to play a 40 year long-game, probably hoping they exert influence over time and wait for the right moment to collapse China like the USSR.
All while this is going on there's a fascist cult that a small group are trying to feed into as the potential start of real fascism and they're failing super fucking hard to get any support from the wealthy so it's probably a non-starter.
Probably was but the existing situation has some parallels. There definitely are multiple factions in play and a bourgeoisie split. The idea of a cabal aligning itself with China and it being uncertain who is really pulling what levers has some merit even if it's not as cool sounding when you put it in terms of a bunch of assholes throwing their money around instead of revolutionaries building weapons caches.
How would the bourgeoisie be "crypto-maoist" I don't think they're preparing to arm the peasants and start a Maoist revolution in America that takes away their power. Also you've still got some of the best bits o7
They wouldn't be in that sense and the US isn't ready for it yet anyway. I assumed that the prior poster was just saying it to imply alignment with China, which does uphold Mao Zedong thought.
There might be some posturing going on right now with support of China, but I just know that the OP is really good with Maoist parody bait posts. Bloomberg said he liked China, but he's not supporting them because he supports revolutionary thought, it's because their special economic zones are great places to get cheap labor.

TL;DR: Things are getting into the fucky-zone.
