      Didn’t you hear? China’s been one gigantic people’s union since 1949. That’s the whole point of Communism. As you can see, it’s working swimmingly well.

        Tiananmen square protests were (also) against introduction of capitalism to China, so… you know… (https://jacobin.com/2019/06/tiananmen-square-worker-organization-socialist-democracy)

        Tell me you don’t know what communism is and can’t recognise a dictatorship under the guise of communism without telling me you don’t know what communism is.

        I imagine that you’re from the US? If so, it’s understandable. Dr. Strangelove was what opened my eyes to how demonised it is and how misguided people in the US are to its true ideology and meaning.

        The USSR, where the gov controlled most of the means of production, is the antithesis of communism.

      People in China really need to do what their anthem says:

      Oh I’m sure that’ll go perfectly well in China!

      Maybe ask some students on how well that went when they protested on some big square there…

        Tbf they did protest against the so-called “zero covid” policy and the government sort of gave in.
