I can freely chose between 5 shitty apartments, that are all falling apart inside and have the same rent!

love to see obvious and predictable consequences that should be understood by anyone capable of thought on the level of a toddler proven to be what they are, obvious and predictable consequences

Hopefully someday Americans will understand that this specific property of the commodification of housing is why we will always have homelessness under capitalism

I still remember how westoids were frothing at the mouth how China was gonna have a 2008 moment when they started winding down the whole real estate market. These people just couldn't imagine the government simply taking over the housing projects and distributing them to people while investors ate the costs if their failed ventures.

Wasn't long ago, that the US capitalist media was predicting a housing collapse in China because they had overbuilt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANuGHbXa9QE

Ah yes, Gordon Chang predicting the fall of China every 5 minutes since 2000. Francis Fukuyama's less-known political brother 😆

Fukuyama saw the light of Juche!

God I genuinely wake up glad every day that the West, in their delusions of grandeur, underestimated China and lauded themselves for their own ignorance as their societies speed ran capitalist implosion.

Now they know they've lost. If there was any doubt in my mind, the Iran war has made it clear. China won. Even if they try to pick a full scale military conflict with China, all of the West, even combined, would get destroyed.

Hopefully my country can learn from this and actually learn from China
