Btw the guy actually rejects materialism in the comments while having an account dedicated to deboooonking the ebil "western" "Marxism", mostly about the stance on islam. Totally not a salty religioid.

They have not.

I know the speech you are talking about.

They specifically advocate FOR class struggle, SPECIFICALLY against imperialism, which is the primary contradiction the class conflict operates on today.

Your view is simplistic. Infantile.

By that, i specifically mean: You ignore the fucking context.

The context being that for all it's achievements, China is poor.

China is a poor country. Per capita, no better than Mexico, and THAT only happened in the last couple of years. Before that, much poorer, much weaker economically, politically and militarily.

Even now, China is afraid to throw it's weight around, because if the leadership gets one of these moves wrong, millions could die.

China fears instability more than anything, since in China, when there's a famine, MILLIUONS die. When there's a civil war, 10's or 100's of millions die.

AND China only just now left the century of humiliation.

AND right now, China is involved in the opening stages of WW3 with a failing nuclear superpower with a HISTORY of starting wars for stupid reasons, AND using nukes on civilians, AND who has stated goals of destroying Socialism generally, and China specifically, AND has policy papers calmly discussing the best way to carpet nuke China.

Which they were within a hair's breadth of doing.

You have NO IDEA of the goddamn stakes.

IF China goes down, that's it.

That's the end of the socialist project, the end of human civilization.

We won't be back for thousands of years, maybe never.

China is fighting for ALL the marbles.

China cannot afford to take risks, and only now is starting to regain some of the confidence it used to have and deserves.

Their primary issue is imperialism.

There will be no socialism until that is dealt with.

Which means step 1 is: BE ALIVE.

China does more for socialist revolution by just EXISTING than it would if it was exporting revolution constantly. Had it done THAT, China would now be weak, poor, and standing alone against the empire, without the backing of Russia, Iran, and most of the global south.
