No, it has extensive differences. Firstly, they subscribe to a more materialistic philosophy while national socialist, and more widely third positionist’s philosophy hinges upon idealism, with actual idealism being its most known postulation. Furthermore, syndicalism or national syndicalism is not merely a third positionist’s stance, it was originally a leftist stance. Furthermore, national syndicalism relies upon class collaborationism and the affirmation of property rights insofar as it benefits the national interest, China cannot be said to follow such an ideology as it firstly not restricts itself to guide the economy but it takes a direct stake into the economy with bureaucrats often controlling it rather than individuals -state socialism. China also does not affirm ‘property rights’ per se as it not merely guide HNWIs into the fold of the state but often goes beyond it with class based persecutions that used to be relatively common, and remain still present. China as we know it was also born out of class warfare, and even if such instinct has waned, it can be denoted that many cultural practices, traditions and other components that had shaped their nation’s heritage for eons were purged out to create something new out of it. This is contrary to any third positionist’s ideology as they exalt the past of the nation and its heritage. And of course there are further discrepancies but it is a tiktok comment, not an essay.
