winnie the pooh is still banned on social media, and they banned christopher robin
if i was at disney shanghai and saw the pooh rides, i'd think, "fuck me, capitalism is winning"
The Chinese policy of obligating foreign businesses to share IP and partner with domestic entrepreneurs isn't FALGSC, but it's a huge improvement over the traditional western colonialist approach of foreign ownership, white executive management, colored lower management, domestic grunt workforce.
Winnie-the-Pooh is capitalist Pastiche. I'd be far more interested in hearing the labor rights of Disney Shanghai workforce relative to, say, Florida or California where employees are paid in coupons and treated as entirely disposable.
those are two very concise and poignant points that gloss over the fact that winnie the pooh is still banned on social media and china has embraced capitalism
China's following the Marx playbook of capitalism as transitional state. It continues to make national five year plans, oppose colonial exploitation, and keep a tight political grip on business in a way Americans have never done.
You can argue how, exactly, we count a public-private conglomeration operating under a nationalist agenda. But this isn't American-style Capitalism.
