    I’m not a Dengist but Dengs entire thing was “we need to hide our strength and bide our time” and they did so by binding themselves so tightly to US markets that if the US went to war with China they would be destroying their own economy first.

    Capitalism is OK when China does it!

    In other words; to hell with the Chinese working class. They need to just suck up being exploited by capitalism, all cause China opposes US imperialism.

      Siri, what is Lenin and the Right Of Nations To Self Determination?

      And to your edit....the working class of China overwhelmingly support the Communist Party in poll after poll after poll

      https://www.scmp.com/news/china/politics/article/3093983/chinese-rate-government-more-capable-ever-long-term-harvard

      A Harvard University survey has found that Chinese citizens' satisfaction with government has increased virtually across the board, with the central authorities receiving the strongest level of approval, increasing from 86 percent to 93 percent between 2003 and 2016, the period of the study.

      From IPSOS 90% of Chinese consider their country to be going in the right direction.

      35% for USA

        What happens when China becomes more influential then America, which is bound to happen. In Lenin's work, he says it is the obligation from people from the ruling society to fight for the self-determination of smaller entities, so should it not be expected that the dynamic will eventually flip?

        By Lenin's own definition of imperialism, China is exactly that.

        There are over 20,000 strikes a year in China where their working class rise up and get sick of the poverty wages and practical slave labor over there.

        But hey, it's all OK cause they oppose American imperialism. That's all that really matters.

          The 20th Century was the fight between Capitalism and Socialism

          Socialism lost

          The 21st century is the Right of nations to Self Determination versus US-EU imperialism. I'm so shocked how many people think it's anything different and try this "both sides shit".
