@madeline_pendleton: Replying to @Violet Evergarden

hyxy :

Pendleton please make your videos shorter I’m an anarchist which means I lack the patience to both read and listen for too long😢

Ming’s China-US Takes :

In fact, the video I posted a couple of days ago was specifically about this. The key reason China is socialist lies in its policies regarding free land and housing in rural areas.

Tachanka :

In China you can't change the party but you can change the policies, in the UK and USA you can change the party but can't change the policies 🤔

Joshua DuBois :

I’ve seen someone call China Fascist I hope it was satire

Franx :

both LPC and HPC imply a society that has already transcended the capitalist mode of production based on wage labor, commodity production, and the value-form. If you argue that China is still in the process of abolishing those relations, then China would be a dictatorship of the proletariat. That, however, would not be true either; in the dictatorship of the proletariat, the population exercises dominance over the bourgeoisie by directly appropriating the means of production and abolishing itself as a wage-earning class. A country that reproduces capitalism cannot be a dictatorship of the proletariat, since the proletariat remains a wage-earning class. Furthermore, China maintains a bourgeois apparatus over society, precisely the sort of thing the dictatorship of the proletariat is supposed to abolish.

m.m09813 :

How do capitalist social relations produce anything but capitalist social relations?

frago☭ (＜★) :

what people dont recognize is that there was a transitionary phase from feudalism and capitalism too, there were constitutional monarchies that operated partly or entirely capitalistically that some equivalent of the people who call china not socialist, would call these countries feudalist because they still had a king/queen. hello?

Amanda.Rich :

Video games are getting dumb and boring. I have already scrubbed my house down so I think I’m gonna read more theory next.

urkanewks :

this video does not want to play so bad. suspicious amount of isssues

susanokey95 :

would this flexibility include the Nordic Model?

vereen_ks3 :

so socialism isn't always good and can be extremely hierarchical and oppressive. got it

Danny Phantom :

It’s also like… we really dgaf what kind of government it is. If they’re taking care of their people and doing majority good, okay?

ShiddedNFarded🇵🇸☭ :

How would global trade look under communism? Would it be more complicated to trade with capitalist nations?

that one comrade :

I'll come back once the video is functioning

LocalChaoticGremlin 🚩 :

I saw some TikToks from one of leftist I follow and they said lately (multiple times) that "China is fascist" and I'm like wtf? since when?? I don't understand where this thesis even comes from

Viva la natura :

china planned by Mao protected the nationalist bourgeois indefinitely, it's in his manifesto

️⭐️ :

would it be possible for a state capitalist country to NOT be sociailst?

Andrew :

Malir☭Thalen :

should I make the effort to critic this video ? answer with: 👍👎

toomanyreasons :

☭𝔸𝕝𝕓𝕒 𝕊𝕠𝕔𝕚𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕤𝕥🚩 :

Left of Liberal :

gionnybanana :

i mean gini index is higher than in europe and billionaires exist. also if automation is the goal they are progressing for sure but the existence of usa undermines the ending society we dream of no? how could they transition if they’re going to be conquered/bombed right after?

Jacques Rouleau :
