Wait till you see how fascist US censorship works.
On the up side China has great prosperity because they dont let individuals hoard all the money and they dont allow unregulated free speech that turns countries like the US into INGSOC Oceania
Aren't you contradicting yourself here? Your first line proclaims the existence of US censorship, but then your next line says that the US is bad because of unregulated free speech. How can there be both censorship and unregulated free speech?
No, I'm not. The unregulated Free speech crowd abused that privilege in order to usher in fascist censorship. The liberals fell for the trap. I've taken a lot of crap on this platform from liberals who said that we need to protect all free speech or else the fascists will censor them if they ever gain. power, which is absolutely the most idiotic and tone deaf statement I've ever heard.
China is one of the least free places on earth and it has all the same exploitation the West. What upside is there?
There is SO much misunderstanding about China that it's mind-boggling. Their people own the means of production. Profits are used to meet the needs of the people, keeping wealth from being hoarded by individuals and thus slowing the flow of money. Their governmental structure is FAR more representative of the people than the US's is. Their expansion of high speed rail has been phenomenal. "All the same exploitation" with none of the problems caused by late stage capitalism. Maybe you should try talking to people who live and work there.
China has billionaires and a stock market. That means the workers are not getting the full value of their labor.
The workers DO NOT own the means of production. The state holds a share in their name but that isn't the same since the state is totalitarian.
They have most of the same issues as a late stage capitalist nation in that they have the corruption, the wealth inequality, and all the same pollution.
There isn't so much misinformation on China except for the sources you seem to buy into. China is factually speaking an unfree nation and is one of the least free populations on earth.
China lets people exploit workers and steal the value of their labor. That’s not an upside.
How are you Americans holding up? I heard the ministry of plenty has increased the chocolate ration from 50 grams a month to 40 grams a month. A 25% increase. Careful, I heard East Asia, who you've always been at war with is predicted to increase missile attacks. At least the end of the war is in sight. Then you can celebrate your victory over Eurasia, who you've always been at war with.
1984 is not about totalitarianism, but about oligarchy. Peter Thiel is literally creating the Surveillance State as we speak.
