          I want to believe that, whether intentionally or unintentionally, they’re forging the material conditions for revolution to be successful. Even if they don’t go full commie in a few decades (as they should in my opinion, shifting progressively from market socialism to a democratically centrally computationally planned economy with social ownership of the means of production), the existence of a multipolar world with china on one side is already incredibly more beneficial than US hegemony.

        Oh I agree. Not fully though, there are definitely some negative side effects, this isn’t paradise, such things don’t exist in this world. But netto it’s a good thing.

        If the west wanted Africa for themselves, they should’ve done something about that. China is doing something about it. Good for China and good for Africa.

        The funniest thing is all these “blocked by an instance filter for hexbear.net” responses. They’re like clockwork. XD

          Not fully though, there are definitely some negative side effects, this isn’t paradise, such things don’t exist in this world.

          All the negative side effects of having hospitals, schools, roads, and other infastructure - its straight out of Heart of Darkness - “the horror, the horror.”

          I know they can’t see this so, just between us - i hate how libs are like well “its not paradise, such things don’t exist in this world.” So because communist can’t do things perfectly (which we don’t claim to) then what we do is probably worse than what the liberals do. Or maybe they mean something like “you naive socialist think its perfect - but perfect doesn’t exist kiddo” bet Marx failed to consider that. smuglord either way its huge very-intelligent energy. Libs think they’re are the only ones to ever think before

      The west is desperate to paint it that way, but what justification is there for calling this colonialism? “Debt-trap diplomacy” was the line before, but that didn’t hold up to scrutiny, especially when China outright forgave several African countries’ debts.

      So what’s the line now?

      Yeah its strange how the West always tries to brand this colonialism since it obviously isnt. You would have to be a dumbass propaganda brained piece of shit to believe this is colonialism- especially while the US still practices the modern equivalent to this day.
