(edit : my bad, the first post was deleted by mistake so i rewrote the title from memory, it was Suharto’s resignation* in 1998, not death, following riots killing an estimated 1000 people. He died ten years later, in 2008.)

It is also the 74th anniversary of the founding of China’s People’s Republic today, not a coincidence(, just as, e.g., Russia’s war in Ukraine happening on the same “anniversary” as the western-backed 2014 coup).
China was only allowed to exist in 1978 once they welcomed capitalism. Their overwhelming success wasn’t expected however.

    The difference is that communists don’t pretend to be impartial or apply universal rules to all groups. We stand firmly on the side of the working class. Liberals pretend to be impartial and apply the same rules to everyone, but they obviously don’t, and that’s when they get called out.
