    How about keep the system, but stop trying to pretend it’s not primarily capitalism

      Well, I dont think they are socialist, not in the traditional term, but 100% they are not capitalists at all, not like any capitalist experience we had. Until a better one I always call it a post-capitalist technocracy.

      Are you coming at it from a pro-capitalist perspective then?

        Not really, that’s just my understanding of the meme

          I don’t think OP would agree with the position that the economic system itself is fine and it’s just the label that needs to change. But I also don’t think they have any coherent position on the topic beyond “China Bad.” I suppose I could be wrong.

            I have no idea what OP thinks of the economic system itself because from my understanding he is only criticizing the label. That’s all I’m saying
