Fork Full Of Noodles with Krish Mohan #253-55 – How China & The US Are Tied Together

China. This is probably one of the most controversial topics to discuss in Capitalist America. If you bring up China at a party, that’s it! The night is over! Everyone has to go home because it’s sure turn into a screaming match about who read the most accurate headline about China that day. A lot of Americans don’t really understand why they’re supposed to hate China other than the fact their commie reds, that’re coming to suck the soul out of every Christian baby in America! 

Capitalists like George Soros have called China an existential competitor to the United States. But wait a minute isn’t competition good for Capitalism? That’s what is preached to us non-stop by the simps of the system? So why would it be bad to have a competitor? Shouldn’t that mean that America is pushed to produce better things? Shouldn’t that mean that America should be trying to be as good if not a better society than China?

China’s Common Prosperity program is described as “not good for investors”! And as Capitalist business leaders in America describe China as an existential threat, Capitalist politicians are pushing for a full on Hot War with China. The United States has 2 partnerships that militaristically are threatening China; The Quad, consisting of the US, Australia, Japan and India, & AUKUS, which consists of the US, the UK and Australia and also sounds like a species of Platypus that are just really socially awkward. 

Anyone feel like the US trying to fuck Australia? Look I get it. Australia was a British prison colony and everyone likes a bad boy their parent is going to hate. Plus they got a pretty cool accent. And militarism is the only the way America knows how to flirt. “Wanna see how far I can fly my drone?” “Is that a nuclear sub in your pants or are you just excited for imperialism?” “I bet the size of my navy gets your inland wet!”  

Right now China has a 20% favorability rating among average Americans. But this is hypocritical to way liberals behave towards this giant. They claim China is evil and violates human rights, but we shouldn’t spread Asian hate. It’s a lot of mixed signals here. 

So what’s behind all this hatred and hypocrisy? In order to understand that we’d have to delve into the history of China and America’s involvement in their growth. China’s main goal since the revolution that put the Communist Party in power back in 1949 has been to build a Socialist society. 

In the early part of the 20th century, thanks to British Imperialism and the Opium trade, China lost a lot of power in the global markets. The Brits had embarrassed this once proud nation with unbeatable Dynasties, by essentially turning them into a drug mule! They were basically like a college student that loses all their money in Mexico and has to transport cocaine in their butt to get home. Plus after the Japanese invasion during World War 2, China was torn apart by the ravages of war. 30 million Chinese lives were lost in the 14 years of warfare they faced. 

So after the Communists won the revolution in 1949, it was time to rebuild the country. China’s economy was weak. Mao Zedong’s goal was to eradicate poverty from China. Mao also had to keep the nation unified. So in order to help get this Socialist project off the ground, he turned to Josef Stalin. Which I get looks bad, but lest we forget, without Stalin’s help, the US and Allied forces wouldn’t have beat Hitler. The problem with Stalin was that he wasn’t ready to turn into a Capitalist state after the War. 

Mao & Stalin primarily talk about peace. Look I get that its hard to believe someone like Josef Stalin would talk about peace, but maybe that was because he was older and Nazis didn’t seem like they’d be a problem at that time. I get it. I’m older now and I only want to burn things down like 60% of the time. Stalin agreed to help China by sending scientists, technology and resources to help get their economy off the ground. 

By the first year, Mao overturned several marriage laws that were in place from the old regime. More hospitals were being built and Mao focused his attention on agriculture. In the 50s, the US slaps sanctions on China because they supported Korean independence instead of US imperialism. 

Tensions started to build between the Soviets and the Chinese and they only get worse when Stalin dies and Kruschev takes over. Both nations wanted the same thing, a Sovereign Socialist State, but were bickering over the execution of the plan. The Soviets believed China was moving too fast. By 1959, things reach a boiling point between the 2 Socialist giants. 

Kruschev meets with US President Eisenhower, who was looking to end the Cold War by making an arms deal with the Soviets. Eisenhower also wanted to the deal with the “China problem”. At this point the US had toyed with the idea of dropping a nuke on Taiwan to cripple China. Isn’t it funny that the only country that used nukes and then threatened another country with nukes, is the one that claiming we need to reign in certain countries with nuclear capabilities? Shouldn’t the rest of world be trying to reign in the nuke thirsty US empire? If sense were common…

Mao and the Chinese see making amends with an imperial power as a betrayal to the construction of a Socialist society. So they started writing about how the Soviets were imperialists and Socialist posers! “Like do you even redistribute bro?!” “Do you even lift…the working class out of poverty and share the means of production with them?” “Bro, do you even live the revolution?”  

So the Soviets responded by abruptly calling all of those scientists back and cutting off resources & advancements to China. Kruschev went against the first principle of Socialism, sharing is caring. Apparently he no longer cared. The Soviet Scientists were very confused about this decision. This was rather devastating to the Socialist cause. This is like watching 2 best buds throwing their friendship away because they can’t agree on who the best X-Man is. 

This was a catastrophe for China! With the crippling US sanctions and the loss of the Soviet’s support, China’s burgeoning Socialist economy was collapsing. With all of that and Mao’s strict new agricultural laws, China saw a wave of starvation in the early 60s. And things only got worse in this decade. 

A quick side note: I know Mao’s wave of starvation is used by Capitalists as proof of the failures of Socialism, but this disregards sanctions and the Soviet support. But more importantly it ignores the consistent wave of homelessness and starvation in Capitalist nations like the US. Don’t forget thanks how US Capitalism dealt with the pandemic homelessness and starvation rose in the last 2 years. Capitalism has yet to deal with this issue.

Not only did America invade Vietnam and bringing war to the doorsteps of China, they had to deal border skirmishes between India and the Soviet Union.

But this gave America’s Oldest Living War Criminal, Henry Kissinger the perfect opportunity to take out both the Southeast Asian & Eastern European Socialist blocks. He had a simple plan: “We want both sides to kill each other!” After meeting with Mao in secret, Kissinger arranged for Nixon to meet with him publicly in 1975. This was Nixon trying to regain good will in the eyes of the International community after the blunders of Vietnam. This was his subtle way of saying “I am not a crook!” 

It won’t be until 1979, 3 years after Mao dies, that will China become legitimized in the world’s eyes by President Jimmy Carter. At this point, thanks to wars breaking out in the South Pacific, Socialism was eroding. Legitimizing China was such a terrifying decision, the Military Industrial Complex penned a letter to Carter, telling him to reverse course on his decision and how China was a victim of Soviet imperialism. I for one am shocked to learn that the Military Industrial Complex is … literate. 

Once China was open to the globe, they started rising to the world stage. American Capitalists were very excited about China’s inclusion to the world market. They figured China would be seduced Neoliberal greed and would become a Capitalist state that America can control. But China used this to boost their economy to start raising their own citizens out of poverty. 

In the 80s, Russia’s new leader, Gorbachev decides to reopen relations with China after their feud in the 60s. Seeing this move as an insult, students decided to protest and effectively shut down the Chinese government for 7 weeks. This is the lead up the famous Tienenmen Square incident. But there are lot of discrepancies on what actually happened there. 

The student in the famous photo was alive and well. He was never arrested by the government for protesting. And this incident was days after any violence had taken place. The student protesters started the violence when the military arrived outside the square by taking arms away from them. No bystanders were killed by the Chinese Military. But the military did open fire on its citizens in retaliation. But how is that any different than what happened at Kent State, any labor action in the early 1900s, the Black Lives Matter protests and any other protest that has ever taken place in America over the last century? It’s not, so America should really just shut the fuck up before it contorts its brain into a perma-pretzel from all this mental gymnastics. 

The 90s is when things start to turn around for China. At this point they’re making most desirable products and had become the world’s manufacturer. Rapid industrialization had taken its toll on China’s climate. But this is a consequence of rapid industrialization. The same thing happened in the States, UK, India and so on! So every neoliberal establishment trying to harp on China’s Climate problem is ludicrous when they haven’t fixed their own crises. For fucks sake, California has a fire season! The southern states have hurricane seasons! And that’s just in America! If you have seasons for natural disasters, you’re a failed state working on becoming a failed planet. 

By 1997 the last vestiges of colonial control were released when Hong Kong returned to Chinese control from the 100 year UK lease. Basically this was like the crown’s international gentrification plan. I believe Hong Kong was supposed to become the Royal Brunch spot!

But, this was a signal to the world, China was becoming its own sovereign independent state without the influence of the west! Now Hong Kong is like China’s Puerto Rico. They want their own independence, and are democratic, but still under the control of a world power. 

It was only after 9/11 that China was added into the World Trade Organization. This was another controversial decision because Capitalists again though they would fall for siren call of Lady Capitalism, but that didn’t happen. So in order to put more pressure on China, the Obama Administration was pushing the Trans Pacific Partnership – which would’ve devastated the global working class and made more Capitalists very rich – and they increased the number of military bases in the Pacific Southeast. 

This brings us to today and China’s Common Prosperity program under President Xi Jingping. Under this new leadership and the growth in China’s economy, the goal to construct a Socialist society was being pushed forward. In order to eradicate poverty, China decided to look at the poverty standard under a new lens.

If you’re a conservative, think of this as getting the boots that you’d pick yourself up by. So in order to build infrastructure to do this, China had to figure out exactly what the problem was and how to find adequate solutions to uplift its people.

Now I get it! The second anyone in the west hears this they go, “Well this sounds like it’s going to get in the way of rights and freedom. What if I don’t want to fix locks and help people!” So you want the freedom to be a sociopath? Well buddy I got an exceptional country you should check out that’s built on being a sociopathic shitbag & uses freedom as an excuse to give up their humanity. 

Corporations, Billionaires and CEOs are also heavily regulated in China. Due to these regulations, Chinese Billionaires lost up to 90% of their wealth. But don’t worry they’re still billionaires! I think if you lose almost everything you have and still wind up being richer than over 95% of the world, then you have too much money. That’s one of those sentences you shouldn’t have to say out loud, but because we live in a fractured reality you absolutely have to say out loud. 

The reason why China is an emerging global power that’s a threat to imperial dominance is because they used the Communist Party to control private industries. When China opened itself to the globe they decided to keep larger things like land under public control. This way real estate corporations can’t arbitrarily spike rent on apartments built on land they’re leasing from the government without loosing control of their properties. 

China also learned from its own mistakes and the mistakes of its rivals. US Capitalism tried to achieve social goals through privatization. The social goals being an upward transfer of wealth and putting a price tag on everything from socks to identity to democracy itself. The USSR tried to achieve its goals through public enterprises and funnel more control to the government. But thanks to the paranoia of the nuclearly charged Cold War,  both nations focused their economic success on the military. 

China decided to coordinate public and private enterprises together to ensure the beneficiaries of the profit would be the Chinese people. And guess what that includes the billionaires and Capitalists that live in China. The goal is to create a stable economy without constant booms and busts like in Capitalism. And they’re succeeding. As we mentioned earlier over the last 30 years, 850 million people have been uplifted from poverty in China. That’s 76% of the world’s poverty!

In America the number of people that have been uplifted is equivalent to the number of billionaires this country has. So like 8…8 people have been uplifted from poverty in America. So I believe monetarily America has eradicated -400% of poverty in the world. 

China is far from a perfect country. Because humans are still in-charge, there was and still is corruption & greed at every level of their class structure, but the difference is that they’re trying to do something about it. America wants to give into that greed and wants everyone else to as well. And when it’s met with a nation that it can’t bend to its whims it throws a temper tantrum in the ways of propaganda. China is proving that the adage “sharing is caring” is rather profitable. 

Americans are the most propagandized people on the planet. How China is depicted in American corporate media is a glaring example of how propagandized Americans really are. It shows how China has a 20% favorability in America and people talk shit on China constantly, but #StopAsianHate trends on Twitter. 

One of the biggest pieces of propaganda we hear is about China’s non-stop human rights abuses. And when people ask for proof, Corporate Media shows a blurry photo of what could also just be a sonogram. But where they did show some proof was the violence against the Muslim Uyghur population in Xianjing. But it was of course it was all a hoax from manipulated data. 

American Corporate media was reporting about a genocide of the Muslim Uyghur population based on a paper published by Adrian Zenz, a right wing scholar and Evangelical Christian. According to Zenz, there is a “demographic genocide” of the Muslim Uyghurs in “authoritarian” China.

Before we go on here, we should address the term “right-wing scholar”. I’m sure if you’re reader like myself, that term gave you a headache. That’s like saying “friendly shark” or “productive politician” or “racist intellectual”. It just doesn’t add up in your brain. And if it does, I’m afraid you’re having a non-stop stroke and should consult a doctor and a library…I’m sorry, libarry in your native tongue of ignorance.  

Ok, so Adrian Zenz is not just an oxymoron but also a christian fundamentalist that doesn’t believe in LGBTQ rights or gender equality. He also says he’s “led by God” to bring down China. Name one time in human history where someone has claimed they’re “led by God” and it didn’t end in bloodshed? You can’t. Because it’s never happened. The only reason we tolerate that kind of stuff is because he’s Anti-Socialism and rich. If an average Joe was making those kinds of claims, he’d be institutionalized.

Also, didn’t God make Chinese people too? So wouldn’t they be children of God as well? So why would God make one of his kids kill another bunch of his kids? Sounds pretty fucked up to me. Like even Shakespeare wouldn’t come up with a tragedy this insane. 

So let’s breakdown exactly what was happening in China and how the real information got filtered through the diagnosably schizophrenic brain of Adrian Zenz. Between 2010 & 2018, the Uyghur population grew by about 25%. The native Chinese Han population grew about a million in that time. The Han population’s growth was regulated because of China’s one child policy. 

In 1979, China’s one child policy was used to limit the growth of a population so they could stabilize their economy and allocate resources appropriately. But at that same time, the policy also included intrusive methods like monitoring menstruation & coerced sterilization along with monetary fines. This was called being a fucking creep! But hey, how is that any different than what Republicans want to do with women’s health in America in 2021. The Ugyhur population was exempt from this law but was still somewhat regulated. Ugyhurs were allotted 2-3 kids. 

In 2015, under Xi Jingping, this law was relaxed. Everyone could have up to 2 children in urban areas and 3 in rural areas. The focus of this new plan was family planning and sexual education along with making contraception more available to people in all communities. [SC 9] In 2017, China’s National Health & Planning Commission put $5.2 billion into their infrastructure to ensure people’s health was a priority. They offered free mental health services and inoculations as part of this. 

After 2015, the infant mortality rates & life expectancy rose everywhere in China, but particularly in the Xianjing province. And a new generation of more sexually liberated people were not looking to have children. This is what contributed to the decrease in birthrates in the world’s most populated country. 

Article 2(d) of the Geneva Conventions states a “demographic genocide” would be: “Imposing measures to prevent births within the group” and is qualified by those acts “committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such”  “Preventing births” isn’t genocide, its birth control. Condoms prevent births. Are you saying the Trojan Man is a genocidal maniac that gets commercials during America’s Got Talent?! Do you believe the phrase “wrap it before you tap it” is a call to bring back the death camps? I mean it can be seen that way from the perspective of sperm. Birth control…well that’s just in the name. It’s controlling births, more accurately it controls whether you want to have births or not.

Zenz’s paper shows a photo of an elderly couple getting a health check up and reports that as intrusive birth control methods! What? No-one over the age of 50 is trying to have kids, unless they’re the punchline of a Tracy Morgan joke! Because the State Department published Zenz’s paper, they didn’t peer review or corroborate his stories. Why look for proof when all you want is manipulated data for the sake of propaganda. Guys facts don’t care about your feelings, but propaganda will gaslight you to think your feelings don’t even exist. 

China Specialist, Lyle Goldstein countered Zenz’s paper and added that the Uyghurs are repressed in China, far more than what lefty, Socialist, progressives would like, but there’s no evidence of a genocide. In fact, with how much China puts into healthcare, it sounds like they’re trying to improve their lives. OH its a monetary genocide! Sociopathic Capitalists like Adrian Zenz look at how much money being put into a healthcare program as a genocide of cash. Helping people kills cash, y’all. Won’t somebody think of the Benjamins.

Like the US has any grounds to talk about the persecution of a minority community when minorities have been victims of America’s foreign and domestic policies. How many Muslim countries is America at war with? A fuckin’ bunch of them! 

How many extreme fundamentalist groups has America armed gleefully!? I’ll give you a hint, it’s fucking all of them. Peace isn’t good for business. 

Hell, I’m Indian and I’ve been caught in anti-Muslim hate. Through the lens of xenophobic nationalism, anything brown with facial hair is a potential threat. I bet we did have the Second Coming of Christ, but thanks to the Shock & Awe, I bet Jesus, being the bearded brown man that he is, was attacked viciously and decided we’re not really worth it and left. Thanks America. You and the Military Industrial Complex fucked everyone out of heaven…if it’s real. 

And this is not including the regular killings of Black, Brown & Indigenous people at the hands of the Police, aka rich people’s mercenaries. So before America even utters the words “human rights” it needs to clean up the factory that produces human rights violations at home and abroad!

And now to abruptly switch the tone!

Video games! The Xi Jingping administration is cracking down on video games, according to corporate media. Today minors in China, can’t play more than 3 hours of video games on the weekend. They’re also banned from playing video games during the week. To most people this sounds insane, but there’s a cultural explanation to this. 

China’s education system is high pressure and very competitive. You start with Bagels and Biology and end with Steak and Statistics. Plus then there’s extra circulars as well. So these kids likely don’t have more than 3 hours of free time to play video games. And besides, this encourages kids to play outside, spend time with family, read or pursue other creative outlets. 

Look I’m a fan of video games. I think they’re great for relieving stress, creative problem solving, dexterity and ensuring that I don’t follow you home and kill your family for cutting me off in traffic you stupid Corolla! But I put a restriction on myself for gaming! I give myself an hour & a half to 2 hours to game and then I have to move around and do anything else. And I usually only play video games once or twice a week. According to US Corporate Media and Neoliberals, I’d be considered a self-authoritarian. To everyone with a functional brain, I’m showing discipline and self autonomy.

But this law is aimed towards younger kids, you know the ones that haven’t figured out discipline or self autonomy. For fucks sake I know people in their 40s with no discipline and self autonomy. Video games tend to be addictive…even to adults…trust me…There was a moment where I would’ve sucked yo’ dick for a…you know what its not the time.

These kids are likely to be less distracted and can concentrate on their education a bit more. Look I’m not a huge fan of the law, but I thinks far from authoritarian. It’s not like their jailing children for playing video games too long. There’s no Gulag for Grand Theft Auto. Theres no prison for visiting the Playstation Store. There’s no slammer for using Kirby’s hammer. There’s no jail time for playing the Sands of Time. There’s no solitary confinement for online multiplayer enjoyment.

But this law exists in various Southeast Asian countries. It’s part of how competitive and rigorous the education system is. And because of that competitive culture, it allowed the private education industry to thrive and take root in China. 

The Private Tutoring companies that were primarily utilized by the rich in China, were publicly traded on the Stock Market. So Xi Jingping has banned private tutoring corporations in China. [CHI 6] Education is a public commodity in China and they don’t believe its right to profit off that.

But this is only part of the solution to the problem of education. If China wants to eradicate the exploitation of their education system, then it has to be a far less of a competitive culture. Competition to that level only opens the opportunities for exploitative Capitalists to come in and profit off that need to be the best. But banning private tutoring is the first step. 

But it’s hard for American media to attack China’s policy of not commercializing education when most Americans are calling for an end to Student Debt and a restructuring of how education is looked at. So the story becomes about restricting kids freedoms. This is coming from the same country that wants to cancel the school lunch program because kids might get used to eating food. 

That’s not a joke. That’s actually something a school board member said in Wisconsin back in August. They’re claiming free lunches have “spoiled” American families, who’ve become “addicted” … to food. America wants to keep kids hungry for the sake of “the economy” aka some rich asshole’s bottom line, but yes China’s policy of limiting video games for growing, under developed brains is the problem. The hypocrisy is enough to make your head spin. 

If America cancels the school lunch program, which was started thanks to the Black Socialists of the Black Panther Party, it’ll only lead to an underground snack cartel in every playground in America. Kids dealing dime bags of gummy bears, eight balls of crushed up Oreos, or they’d be mainlining juice boxes and passing around a pudding cup. It’s lick, lick, pass! Don’t be a greedy bastard, Jeremy!

Corporate media hides the actual truth by bending the truth about nations and ideologies that don’t serve Capitalism and its addicts. Its not hard to debunk the truth behind the headlines, as long as you’re willing to use a few extra brain cells. That’s literally all it takes to push past propaganda.

America is a nation where Capitalists run amok. Mega Billionaires get to evade taxes regularly and hide their wealth in offshore accounts. That’s right American currency is getting more tans than the American people. The American political system that operates under legalized bribery and is wildly corrupt, but at every turn is calling China corrupt. And there is a reason why…China is regulating its Capitalists. 

Since 1979, when China resigned its isolationism and joined the world economy, there have been Capitalists that have decided to headquarter themselves there. And thanks to the rapid industrialization of its economy, China has the world record on billionaires. Which is another reason America is pissed, because they’re no longer #1 in bastard bad boy billionaires!

China has an income cap that says after you make a certain amount of money, you have to give back to the Common Prosperity program to help the Chinese People. And if they don’t these billionaires get a substantial fine. [CHI 7]

China is also going after Big Tech as well. Particularly companies that deal with transactions. These corporations become micro-lending companies and start acting as a bank. So these companies were subverting government regulation of the banking industry and becoming private banks with a tech focus. This is also known as the American Banking industry. 

China’s anti-corruption law is strict enough that Billionaires and CEOs themselves are becoming corruption watchdogs. Call me cynical, but I don’t see America legislating against Billionaires and CEOS. Billionaires keep getting tax loopholes because they own politicians that write the laws. In China, Billionaires don’t have any influence over the politicians. And they sure as shit aren’t getting named “Person of the Year” by neoliberal, out of touch magazines. 

Again this by no means is saying that China has officially defeated Capitalism & the concept of corruption. But it is maintaining it and it still has work to do. Gig Economy workers in China are exploited in the same manner as gig economy workers in the US. Gig economy workers work 12 hour days in order earn enough income to survive. The CEOs say the workers should be blessed for this job and its “flexibility”. So the Chinese government is in the process of cracking down on this exploitation as well. 

China also has plans to use data for public good. One of the ways they executed this idea was in their response to COVID. Everywhere you went you had to scan your phone so it registered who was where. Now this sounds super intrusive, but that information was used by Health Ministry to send messages to people if they’ve been in the same space as someone who’s contracted COVID. This is how they were able to stay ahead of the pandemic. 

Their Personal Information Protection Law prevents the data to be used for consumerism, tracking, spying or selling that data for any number of mostly nefarious reasons. This means you won’t get an ad for cheese on your instagram because your girlfriend’s friend posted about cheese. 

That’s not really an exaggeration. A few Christmas’s ago, when was still married, my ex wife was looking a purse. About 10 minutes later, as I was scrolling Facebook, I got an ad for the exact purse she was looking at on her phone! Big Tech Simps will say it’s just coincidence or that good ol’ Zuck was trying to help my marriage, but we all know better. Zuck doesn’t give a fuck when he’s just tryin to turn a buck. 

So the big question is whether China is a Capitalist or Socialist country. The mainstream answer is it really depends. But the real answer is that China’s perspective is and has been Socialist. The goal is to build a Socialist society. Land, Labor, Technology, Capital and Data are meant to be used to uplift the lives of the Chinese people. This means that this is a society where individuals live with each other with collective responsibility. 

There’s no road map to build Socialism. One can make the same argument about Capitalism. The difference is Capitalism doesn’t learn from its mistakes, it just figures out how to hide them for a little bit. Slavery is arguably one of the largest mistakes made by Capitalism and yet it still uses slave labor to drive consumerism. At least with Socialist governments they’re figuring out how to reduce repeating the same mistakes and come up with newer solutions. 

The expectation of Capitalists is that after a Socialist or Communist revolution, there should be utopia the day after. They use this absurd messaging mixed with flowery faux academic language to discredit the work being done to build a Socialist society from rubble. The real reason for so much western aggression over China is because it proves that Socialism does in fact work, even in a country as large as China.

China and America are inexplicably linked considering China is the world’s manufacturer. It shows that after 1979, China was more in control of American Capitalism than America was. Consider how many American Flags and American Flag undies are made in China! Even Marx & Engles talk about marketization being good for creativity and innovation. That’s what they did when they opened up to the rest of the world. They figured out a way to use capital to develop social programs and equitable distribution. 

Look, Isolationism is inherently not Socialist. You can’t be a Socialist if you’re not a little you know…Social. 

So when it comes to critiques about China, it really depends whats convenient for Capitalists. Anything that benefits China and grows their economy is obviously because of America’s Capitalist influences. But when they implement laws like restricting hours for video games or regulating billionaires, it’s because they’re Authoritarian Socialists…ugh there’s that oxymoron headache again.

China used Socialism to eradicate poverty, and is an example of what you can do when you put the lives of people in front of profit. And it can help other countries achieve the same thing. Capitalist giants like America tried to stop this progress since the beginning with economic sanctions, militarism and spreading misinformation. That’s like kicking someone when they’re down. But the plan is failing because China is now on its way to construct a society that looks beyond Capitalism.
