    Your very ideas are but the outgrowth of conditions of your bourgeois production and bourgeois property, just as your jurisprudence is but the will of your class, made into law for all, a will whose essential character and direction are determined by the economic conditions of the existence of your class.

    ~ Karl Marx

    I think there’s an unspoken superstructural concern many leftists have about the PRC getting richer/becoming more developed and it may stem from this. That instead of developing the productive forces toward socialism, the people will cling on to capitalist-esque relations all on their own.
