So when can we expect it to start, 2050?
So when can we expect your revolution to happen, 2040?
If it doesn't happen by then can we declare the western proletariat counter revolutionary?
Or is it possible putting arbitrary timelines on things of this nature rather than examining the material conditions and trajectories of change is idiotic and only serves to demonise progressive forces for not being as perfect in reality as one imagines in their fantasies?
It's already started, there's no such thing as a static system, and China has been advancing steadily along the socialist road already. Once imperialism falls, China's strategic place within the global markets will change character and will accelerate socialization of production and distribution. China doesn't have private property for the sake of it, but as a strategic concession to both help develop underdeveloped sectors of its economy, and to become something the west relies on and therefore cannot risk attacking.
It's an ongoing process that's currently happening.
We can start it in our own countries and see how long it takes. That'll give us a better idea of how socialist development occurs
