Communism doesn't work. Socialism can. But communism has proven to be flawed. No nation has ever actually been real Communist. Because it is impossible. The inventor of communism would have despised every nation in history claiming to be Communist.

LNSS doesn't believe in it. He posted a link in the other topic supposedly to say "The US govt even agrees it doesn't exist!" but the link itself (he didn't read it) basically says they're committing genocide but some legal scholars say it's hard to prove in court.

It depends on what your definition of what the far left is.

To a republican, the far left means...basically the entire left, whereas for a more middling leftist, the far left are the more extremist fringe groups that very well may sympathize with the CCP.

Why on earth do people still make the claim that anyone of the left supports a genocidal dictatorship.

Anyone who claims to support that shit stain of a government is not someone on the left, no matter how much they might think they are. Reality doesn't change because they scream loudly and stubbornly.

You can only join the middle class if you are a citizen. Many of the lowest class are "invisible " in Chinese society and lack official citizenship even though they have lived in China all their lives.

Because they lifted millions out off poverty, are leading the world in renewable energies, are exploring space, gave my country millions of COVID vaccines while "developed countries" ignored us, are investing heavily in other poor countries across the world, they don't coup or invade countries whenever a left-winger wins elections in them, etc.

Pretty much this. The CCP abandoned Communism decades ago. Now it's no different than any other capitalist system. People at the top get rich, everyone else ekes out a meager existence generating the wealth that the people at the top pocket.

It's actually not much different than how things work in the US. Only in China they cut out the middle man, money goes straight to the party officials. In the US it goes to the corporate executives and shareholders who then use it to donate to politicians that will cut regulations and taxes for them.

Did the Kuomintang government need to go? Absolutely. Same as every regime that has suffered a massive communist or socialist uprising. The problem is always what comes after.

The funniest thing is that now a good fraction of the mainstream radical-left identify as Maoists. The thing is that mainstream radical left in first-world countries is dominated by romantic pseudo-anarchists who believe the CHAZ to have been tantamount to the Bolshevik Revolution of our times and unknowingly up repeating CIA propaganda.

There is no such fucking thing in the US as a mainstream radical left. The closest thing you have to a mainstream left are Bernie bros and they are democratic socialists and thus still capitalists.

capitalism

What western leftists don't understand is that socialism is not anti-capitalism, but post-capitalist. A true socialist society will evolve out of capitalism, not in spite of it, just like how capitalism arose from the mercantilistic kingdoms of the early modern era. Western leftists have no grasp of historical materialism, and hence they end up spouting nonsense such as "cHiNa iS nOt rEaL sOcIaLiSm lOl!!1!1!"

this might be true with technology in the future. If its true in China why do they need to use violence to arrest journalists and put wrongthinkers into camps? Like the Uyghur Muslims.

No they aren't. Government doing stuff isn't socialism. Socialism advocates for worker control of the means production.

Bernie people advocate for tax payer funded college, healthcare, and various other services that make up a strong social welfare net.

Social democracy is a Socialist system that comes to power peacefully through established political processes.

You keep bringing out HK journalists, so I Googled it and found this.

Police, who typically do not name arrested people, said in a statement that a 57-year-old man had been arrested at the airport for conspiring to collude with foreign countries or foreign forces to endanger national security.

I mean if a journalist did that in any country, I would expect them to be arrested regardless of system of government.

By that logic, civilization itself is built on the blood of innocent people. No matter where you live, it's likely that your prosperity is also built on top of mountains of skulls.
