    China is a capitalist country. They are communist in name only. The two most annoying things on this site; #1. all the cheerleading of China as some communist utopia and even using right wing talking points to defend capitalism over there (precisely what this jackass is doing in the screenshot), and #2. Vaush posting.

      Abolishing commodity-production is difficult in a world where you have to trade to maintain competitiveness. China is playing the long game, they're building their productive forces, increasing their military strength and advancing their technological capabilities. China is mostly western-style capitalist, but they also have a significant state controlled capitalist sector. And most importantly at the current stage, the government is firmly in the hands of socialists, rather than the capitalist class.
