China has not developed into communism yet. Socialism is a transitional status between capitalism and communism.

Welfare is not socialism. Socialism is a broader system with a worker state and public ownership of the commanding heights of the economy. Regulations without a worker state and without public ownership of the commanding heights is always twisted in a manner that either protects capital or entrenches it. The European social democracies all rely on imperialism for their safety nets because they do not have socialism.

True, lol

You cannot overturn bourgeois rule using the bourgeois state.

Genocide began well before independence from Britain.

Same with using CCP instead of CPC.

???

Yes.

You’re drawing a hard line within a class, which is more of an obfuscation of class analysis than a coherence towards it. Further, yes, both the WPK and CPC do engage with and are representative of the broader working classes.

Not very effectively

Why not yuan 🫠

The WPK is Kimilsungist-Kimjongilist, technically, though ML is accepted as the basis of Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism, just with the juche idea added on top.

Doubt all you like, but both the WPK and CPC are overwhelmingly proletarian parties in states where the commanding heights and backbone of the economy are publicly owned at a minimum.

Both China and the DPRK are socialist countries. Public ownership is the principal aspect of their economies, and the working classes control the state.

I’m not mocking tankies, I’m in the post I linked.

No?

State and Reformation

They’re serious and dedicated Marxist-Leninists. There’s some shitposting but there’s a lot of high-effort content there, just check this post out and read the replies. It’s abundantly clear that, even if you disagree, there’s a bunch of thought that goes into a lot of the positions over there.

You never gave evidence that China under reports, though.

What discrepancy is there in the data?
