I swear unanimous appreciation of china was a pretty common sentiment and now I'm consistently seeing upbeared comments about how china isn't and never was a socialist state, and how actually their use of markets is as bad if not worse than america. What's going on? IDK what to think or what side I'm on here but it just seems like opinions fundamentally changed so quickly, it's weird.

      There was hardly anybody here vibin with Biden as far as I can tell. Saying a market economy isn't a socialist economy is fine. Saying China is socialist because socialism is a movement to overturn current relations and replace them and China is (very very slowly) moving in that direction is also fine. Sinophobia and Redscare should be hated by everyone here. Also China is putting out some cringeworthy propaganda itself and there is nothing wrong with calling that out.
