    The Belt And Road Initiative will have to continue without r/communism101’s approval.

    All the nations, demographics and people who are able to use this alternative to Western imperialism to liberate themselves will have to do so knowing that people who learn their communism from reddit will sternly disapprove.

    If parts of the Western World reject the notion that “a rising tide lifts all boats” because they read on the internet that China and the BRI are imperialist, who can disagree with them? Liberals are never wrong, after all. They can cling defiantly to the rock bottom capitalism has driven them to and laugh at the rest of us for being so gullible while the tide rises around them.

      Indeed, the millions of dedicated communists in the PRC eliminating poverty should stop and ask themselves, “Am I being social imperialist? What would r/communism think?”

          Seriously tho, the PRC is treading their own path to communism, already learned the lessons of the dangers of ultraleftism, and don’t need to be educated by western maoists on that topic. If anything, the westerners should be doing more listening and learning from SWCC, and less talking.

          self-crit is a big thing in the CPC from the times of Mao, maoists dont even know their beloved

              “Self-crit” and “caring what people on r/communism think” are two very different things.

              They’re only related in that the former is needed wherever the latter occurs.

      True, the maoist anti-modern China crowd isn’t that active in real life eitherway
