I mean, that’s basically my position too.

I don’t think China is the perfect state and the majority of economic relationships within China are in the capitalist mode and billionaires are on a leash but there are still many power billionaires.

I like China because it is the closest to being able to push the button and has leadership that seems to at least aspire to pushing the button maybe even within my lifetime.

Which is A LOT and hugely preferable to whatever the fuck kind of feudalism the west is evolving towards but I won’t stan them as being actually very communist right now. They’re dialectically evolving towards some better form of socialism and they look after their people a lot better than the west, and there’s a lot to like but damn I wish they would push that dang button.
