The 4 remaining will be homogeneous societies. Lack of diversity is their super power.

Communism was just easier to adapt to East Asian base societies. Marx just began his marketing towards the wrong hemisphere.

People can own private property in China


No, you only get to rent it. You can take out very long leases (70 years for residential, 40 years for commercial), but you never truly own it. When your lease is up, you have to start paying again or give it back.

You can’t own land.
You own the building.

Not communist.

Of course not. You just don't have the right to vote, voice opposition to the government, start your own business, leave the country, or proclaim your belief in Jesus Christ. Other than being 100% controlled by the government, they are free.

Fascism and communism are opposites


This isn’t accurate

Gentile was influenced by Marx and Hegel. Gentile believed fascism was a “third way” between capitalism and communism

Is China really a communist country?


They are run by the Chinese Communist Party. But Xi has overwhelming power over the CCP. The committee will never get rid of him for anything.

Because people that push communism will be the ones with powerful positions. Communism doesn’t work because once wealth is seized, those in power have no interest in actual redistribution

It’s the ultimate political grift.

Knowing communism has failed every time it has been tried except for a few primitive Asian countries, why is the American left pushing such failed nonsense?


Because it is very good at consolidating power.
