  • On some level I kind of appreciate your exuberance, I guess. But this doesn’t have anything to do with Mao Zedong thought (“dengism”).

    The purpose of the anti-imperialist geopolitics of contemporary China is to destroy the value chain system created by imperialism through crosslinking and peripheral development. This also has the side benefit of being the way you actually develop an economy without simply ramping up exploitation of the periphery or destroying and enclosing semi developed nations (like the former USSR experienced). If China followed the path that Demsuccs in the first world demand, they would be failing to develop their rural production and quality of life, competing to provide amenities to their workers while also walling themselves off from all capitalist economies, making it incredibly easy to isolate and famine siege China. MZT does not treat all areas of production, agriculture, the military, education, etc as a smorgasbord for capitalists.

    “Bail communism out”? I assume you mean Eurocommunist shitheads, the “antiwar US left” that’s entirely supplanted Marxism-Leninism with new left French critical theory ideologies like anatchists and succdems, MLMs, trots, and libertarianism?

    Yeah, 6/7ths of the population sure isn’t waiting for those shitheads to get it. Nobody cares if yhe CPUSA and PSL and whatnot take umbrage with Russians or Nicaraguans or the specifics of what Maduro is doing. Their audience is each other, certainly not the global south, unless they want to lecture. I’m sure they’re looking forward to your newfangled lecturing.
