authoritarian state

Authoritarian is a meaningless pejorative used by the unintelligent and uneducated to avoid class analysis. Every state exercises coercion. The question is which class benefits. China’s legal system has demonstrably reduced corruption and constrained capital’s excesses in ways other (Western) systems have not. If your ideal "leftism" cannot account for who holds power and how law serves that power, then your ideal is simply fantasy.

No need to bring in misogyny/homophobia. The reason socialists support socialist countries is pretty self-evident, we defend the ruling class in China because the ruling class in China is the working class.

That’s not leftism, you’re just a class traitor who defends the ruling class of a place you don’t even live in.

There's not one Chinese person here, everyone is American/European white trash in lemmy.

Wtf is this?
