Because they're marxist leninist and think socialism is something you work towards and isn't achievable by pressing the big red communism button.
China has stopped being communist for a while now, it's developed into some flavour of capitalist society though I don't remember much about the different variants. It's certainly top heavy though like the USA.
Tankies are the greatest right-wing propaganda that lefties still fall for both by believing in it and by believing that it's actually coming from sincere leftists.
They're a capitalist country.
The net worth of the world's billionaires is over $16 trillion in 2025¹. 1% being 160 billion. On average, around every 4000 USD send to the most effective charity saves someone's life². So around 40 million children.
This doesn't account, of course, for the difficulty of selling large amounts of stocks without them losing value and the fact that, as low-hanging dangers are depleting, each subsequent child would be more costly to save.

Imo there should be a law that limits the sum of assets everyone is allowed to have, say 1M-10M
Again overvalued positions in society are an issue too. People fuckin hate when I say no one should be able to make over 500k$/annually and its like if you can do that you're automatically going to be seeking to consistently enhance either your own riches, someone else's riches or generational wealth w/estate properties paid off in full for 2 lifetimes in a trust that no one can touch and then because rich people involve themselves with politics, even at a local level (you'd be surprised how many people are, "generous donors," to their mayors for favors), they'd get away with being able to probably make it so the property never leaves the city.
You wanna stop the rich make it so they can't earn as much.
OH wait but that whole cost of living and capitalism thing...... Money is just a flawed concept and another thing people hate on me for saying is that humans need incentives to get things done. Whether it's an award with praise or a cash bonus; by now humans need something in return, we're not a naturally do something for nothing in return species.
You were tickling my fancy until I noticed the community. Well done, dear Lemming, well done.
China's restrictions on free speech scare me... and I don't like all their policies... at all...
but, in China's defense...
Many countries that have tried to implement communism have been overthrown... and so if China is trying to position itself in a technologically dominant way to avoid being overthrown, embracing some limited capitalism to foster technological dominance may make sense. If you look at China, they make a lot of great tech and they are really excelling at robotics.
If someone is really good at making money, they sometimes use that capital to create more companies or push technological development further. So it may be a thought out policy choice to allow limited capitalism, even resulting in billionaires, so as to gain technological dominance, so as to not be overthrown?
China’s restrictions on free speech scare me…
I see people complain about free speech restrictions in China with this deep paranoid fervor. And then I see them dismiss free speech restrictions on Reddit or Facebook or YouTube or TikTok or Twitter as personal problems created by trolls and losers.
Three months after Tired_Thumb learned of the government investigation, a New York poll worker named Paigelynne Gonyea received a voicemail from a man identifying himself as an agent with Homeland Security.
“We were just calling you in reference to a post that we believe you made on Instagram where you doxxed an ICE agent back in January,” said the caller.
Shortly after, two agents from ICE OPR arrived at the voting site where she was working.
They held printed screenshots from her account, she said, including the post in question. The agents flipped by it quickly, she said, but she caught one thing: The post included a photo of Ross, the immigration officer who killed Good.
The file that agents were holding also contained Gonyea’s address, date of birth and what looked like a picture of her taken at airport security, she said. They told her to take down the post and asked her to sign a letter acknowledging she had been informed that she “may” have violated federal law with her social-media account.
Of cousre, I'm not living in China. So my fear of Chinese restrictions on free speech are minimal because the Chinese government isn't the one I have to worry about.
This makes me wonder too. A lot of communists I met idolize China but China does not seem to me a communist country now.
