    China innovation: Fusion power, mars missions, high-speed-rail connecting every region, 7g wireless internet in every city, electric cars…

    US innovation: Marvel movies, mass-surveillance social media, and drone bombers.

      Almost like socialism builds progress and capitalism destroys it but don’t tell the libs that.

      Don’t forget new and exciting ways to advertise and brainwash people to buy useless shit. New innovations in meaningless aesthetics and how to signal your consumer identity. New innovations in propaganda and how to be the evilest nation on Earth and convince your citizens that you’re the good guys. VOMITS

    no no no, you don’t understand

    when china good: its capitalism

    when china bad: communism

    so China is only succeeding because they are capitalist now, and has a better economy than the west. Those fucking commies.

      Thing is don’t china have their tech city where there’s department stores of electronics boffins who make all sorts of homebrew hardware and software? I get your point 100% in the imperial core but I think China have at least the ground work in place to absolutely free themselves of American tech serialisation.

    The European empires get their manufacturing technologies from Africa and India that enable the European steam revolution and the Americans are so terrified of innovative hard-working Communists to the point that the need authoritarian government to intervene in the market to stop the invisible hand from electing Communists in the Cold War. I could not be surprised that the American empire now fears innovation and associate innovation to Communists despite the contradicting beliefs that Capitalist (real definition is system of plutocratic command economy that only serve the rich 1% oligarch) promote innovation, that Communism offers no incentive for innovation, and that the European empires are the only source of prosperity and innovations.

      America trying to maintain their grip on the world economy yet again. Financial imperialism in all its shame.

  • No, you see, if China does something good or something good happens in China, it’s because of its market economy and thus capitalism.

    If something bad happens in China or if we say China did something bad that we do all the time tenfold, it’s because of evil communist totalitarianism.

    So in the end, capitalism still equals good, and communism still equals bad.
