      okay sure fine it's not socialist, so what?

      Pretty much my mindset nowadays. Okay so it's proven that China is, objectively, without a shadow of a doubt not socialist... so what does that change? What do they expect people to do about it? Condemn China in it's entirety? Support the U.S. in its struggle against "Chinese imperialism" or what.

        What would change is that these kinds of people could feel more like underdog hipsters they so desperately want to be.
