CHINA BAD AND USA BAD! They both fucking suck! But hey, keep defending the 'communist' survailence state that is one of the largest exporters in the global market. I am sure the workers feel like they own the profits.
The PRC is leaps and bounds better than the US, and it isn't close. Further, socialism isn't when "no exports," lol.
Can we be honest and acknowledge the fact that if you're doing socialism or communism correctly, your exports are going to be severely lower than capitalist shitholes like China and the USA? A system that values the workers is not going to have as much force behind it economically as a system that just uses as many laborers as possible as wage slaves. So China having a large export implies that they are not actually doing communism in any real way. Any claims that china is actually communist and it supports it's peoples wellbeing is literally an American left wing conspiracy theory.
Socialism is when nobody does any work
