    Don't understand how you can say political power is under the rule of law in the US when a man with tens of felony counts is about to become President. It's been known for decades that there's one justice system for the proletariat and another for the bourgeoisie.

      For some reason libs think that the "rule of law" is a sentient being that should be obeyed by politics, and not that politics is what creates the rule of law.

    If you really look at china's policies, they are basically left wing with authoritative properties. but those properties are what keep conservative policies out of their government.

    It's called "the vanguard party" and "the dictatorship of the proletariat", my dude.

    This is materialism in action. Their ideas are crashing against reality and even if it takes a while, reality wins out in the end.

    Reverse engineer geniuses

    I'm sure the CPC and Chinese industry made efforts to effectively reverse engineer technology, but a vast majority of "IP theft"/reverse engineering cases are western companies agreeing to share information to have their shit made in China. Guess what, people who have been making your product for years who have developed the know-how to make their own version will be much better than the people who haven't set foot on a factory floor in decades. It's deindustrialisation on the small scale.

    Awful system on paper

    I guess any system looks awful of one's head is up their ass, especially if it's not endemic to their intestines.

      It's more like, they can't deny that China is better but have to still add in little quips like "I'm means it's still bad and I don't support it, but it's better than us in every way, but still bad "

        Yeah its so funny, its like theyre one foot in and other out 😂 theyre terrified of getting called tankies or CPC agents so they have to make it clear that china still bad, but not that bad. Maybe in a couple of years theyll fully transition.

      They are conflating "rule of law" with "rule of $"

      China will keep winning for as long as representatives stand above capital.

      Though tbf, Political power kinda is what dictates the rule of law

      Which is why the Proletariat must (and will) seize political power from the Bourgeoisie to create better laws than the ones that the Bourgeoisie makes.

    I'll give them a little bit of credit for even calling China leftwing, but I think that this is more indicative of their turn against democracy and desire for a benevolent monarchy. Their conception of China still looks to be unreconstructed.

    It's becoming hard to ignore the contradictions in the western system and the fact that China is visibly pulling ahead technologically. I expect now that China has caught up with the west, we're going to start seeing Chinese tech rapidly eclipse western capabilities.

    China a population that can match all of the west combined, and people are provided with an excellent education system. On top of that, the government directs the trajectory of technological development ensuring that it's largely productive as opposed to simply being done for the sake of generating profit. The use of AI in China being largely seen in industry and healthcare compared to AI being mostly used for chatbots in the west is a great example of the contrast in priorities.

    The other aspect to keep in mind is that technology tends to be self reinforcing. For example, having more computing power means you can process more data, run more detailed simulations, and so on. This directly facilitates developing even more powerful computers. Such gains apply across the board making it cheaper and faster to develop all kinds of technology. The only limiting factor is the will of the nation to pursue advancement.
