Lmmfao, who do you think runs the Chinese government, the workers?
Anyway, thanks for providing an example of exactly the kind of bullshit and excuses I was referring to.
https://redsails.org/losurdo-on-china/
Read that to learn about how wealth is not able to be translated into political power in China like it is in capitalist controlled countries. @ProfessorOwl_PhD@hexbear.net wasn't talking out of their ass - you are just ignorant on this subject.
Having to post this Losurdo essay for the second time today because westerners can't help themselves but talk absolute nonsense about China anytime it comes up.
they execute billionaires from time to time. when's the last time a western country did that?
most western countries are civilised enough to not allow capital punishment.
Lol. Lmao even. They kill millions of Arabs and Asians just for fun
Yes unlike the barbaric yellow hordes, their western betters have the civility to only perform executions in the streets, prior to arrest.
Extrajudicial street executions happens in Baghdad and Boston, both are done by white supremacist thumbs exported from the USA
With a Vanguard party made up of nearly 10% of the population... uh yeah, kinda. Not in a fully idealised sense, but certainly in enough of one that billionaires actually get prosecuted for their crimes.
Certainly not this guy.

Yes, the workers indeed run the country, with over 99 million people in the party
