      They believe inframaterialism is real but also that's bad because it means the hiveminded asians can succeed despite not following the rules.

      China is always and forever the image from the 1980s where polluted slums are advertised as the legacy of Communism.

        I can’t believe the communists destroyed China like that. I’m sure China before 1949 was a thriving industrial powerhouse where everyone ate caviar and drank champagne!

            And then a detached floating Marx head rode in on a tsunami and ate all the food at the behest of Mao Zedong, who invented famines in 1949.

      I didn't see that but I did see a comment saying that it is bad that china has a low cost of living because it "distorts the labor market".

      I am not going to subject myself to further brainworm exposure.
