Yeah I have to stay off of here. Maoist lemmygrad tankies give me diarrhea.
I know the implication here is that “maoist lemmygrad tankies” are so gross they give you diarrhea but it really comes off as “I get stress diarrhia reading left wing content online” which isn’t very flattering.
That’s not my hill to die on, but what exactly about authoritarian ethno states scratching each other’s back makes it “left wing”?
This guy is a typical lemmygrad user spouting off bullshit tankie talking points. Don’t even bother.
A woman from hexbear actually. Not everyone on the internet is a man, you can afford to not be sexist and stop perceiving man as the default. I hope reading my conditional defense of historical and existing somewhat successful socialist projects hasn’t given you too much diarrhea.
The USSR famously subsidized and gave autonomy to the non Russian SSRs. Russofication was obviously a problem but much less of a problem than during the monarchy or the post union capitalist state. There is a reason why the non Russian SSRs voted at higher rates than the Russian SSR to stay in the USSR during the referendum before the illegitimate dissolution of the soviet union.

China famously exempted all ethnic minorities from the one child policy.
Yeah but we are today, and I fail to see what’s actually “left wing” about the present situation. Is Russia (a fascist kleptocracy) being helped by China (state capitalist and only communist in name) somehow contributing to spreading socialism ideals? In retrospect that was maybe a rhetorical question.
I would read an English translation of “On the Governance of China” as well as this https://redsails.org/china-has-billionaires/
Even Lenin acknowledged that you can’t get rid of capitalism quickly, and China started from an even worse position than the USSR.
Empires competing and creating multipolarity benefits China, other socialist nations, and the imperial periphery looking to break free. Keep in mind that mao’s three worlds theory is a major influence on some socialist factions in China, even if it is reductionist. Russia maintaining strength to challenge the US(including if it comes through a defeat or truce in ukraine)(note that China is pushing for a truce which would maintain Russia’s ability to defend itself from NATO better, but supplying them to maintain their strength) is a good thing in their calculus, and I haven’t seen any compelling rebuttals to it.
Realistically, China, as an hegemony seeking super power, would do the same thing no matter what century and flavor of autocratic regime is at the helm at that particular time. No need to make it more than what it is, really.
Citation needed.
Also you didn’t really respond to anything said.
Have you ever listen to the CCP’s rhetoric? Especially Xi’s neo-traditionnalism and “restoring China’s just place at the center of the world”.
And neither did you, you were off-topic from the get go.
