A Few Thoughts about China
It feels like in terms of productive forces, China is primitive industrial capitalism; in terms of its mode of production, China is crony state capitalism and totalitarian state capitalism.
In recent years, it feels like it has shifted its strategy again from emphasizing socialism to emphasizing nationalism and national rejuvenation. This is perhaps because the whole moronic narrative of "socialism with Chinese characteristics and China still being in the primary stage of socialism" doesn't hold water anymore, and the government is no longer able to deceive the idiots at the bottom.
感觉中国从生产力来说是原始工业资本主义; 从生产方式是权贵国家资本主义跟极权国家资本主义。
近年来感觉又从强调社会主义改变策略到强调民族主义跟国家复兴。大概是中国特色的社会主义跟社会主义初级阶段那套弱智叙事走不通，骗不动下面的弱智了。
