I am a Marxist in China

Orthodox Marxists in the Chinese internet community often view Russia and Iran as weak links in imperialism, rather than as anti-imperialist forces .However, in the view of Chinese Marxists, opposing the global hegemony of the United States takes precedence over opposing secondary imperialisms (Iran, Russia).

The person in the picture is Yang Heping, a US citizen with a Chinese green card, and he is the most popular orthodox Marxist-Leninist-Maoist self-media figure on the Chinese internet (with 3 million followers on Tiktok and 800,000 on Bilibili). Yang Heping advocates that whether it's Ukraine, Russia, or Iran, "the truth is on the side of the proletariat, not on the side of any government or capitalist."

In China, those who unconditionally support Iran and Russia are usually nationalists or national leftists.

I wonder if the differences between the left-wing in Europe and America and the left-wing in China are really that significant?

我现在觉得和你们交流根本是浪费时间,今天热的要死,我还要不断的用AI翻译翻译我的语言来照顾你们的语言障碍,这完全没有意义,你觉得是什么就是什么吧

The translation isn't the problem (besides which I can just translate everything you say via google's translate function), it's the dogmatic responses that ignore the real world situation and which reads like the thinking of liberals.

This site, ban you for being a liberal? HA! If we did that this place would be a ghost town. Were all liberals down here comrade. (I'm making a joke, you'll be fine).

Right now, I feel like communicating with you is a waste of time. It's unbearably hot today, and I have to keep using AI to translate my language to accommodate your language barriers. That's completely meaningless. Whatever you think is what you are
