Zhang had that knowledge and experience (sadly passed away in 2005, after serving 22 years in a Dengist dungeon). If this guy is reaching a similar conclusion to an experienced cadre like Zhang, then perhaps, he’s doing a good analysis on this specific topic.
people in this community say only westerners question China’s position as socialist, when in actually, people from the East also question how socialist is China. There are multiple Asian communist parties backing this opinion and even former CPC cadres, like Zhang.
Zhang Chunqiao wasn’t a western anglo and said this:
“Although the Cultural Revolution launched and led by Chairman Mao failed, its spirit and principles will last forever. If the ruling Communist Party does not seriously solve the problem of degeneration and deterioration, becomes a privileged class, separates itself from the broad masses of the people, and is high above them, acting like a master, then sooner or later the people will follow Chairman Mao’s teachings and rise up again to revolutionize and overthrow the bourgeoisie in the Party.”
fairs, it should be better if someone posted one of the their crazy takes.
they are a Duginist party nowadays, kinda like the ACP.
Do you think that the Filipino police only used those guns to combat actual ISIS terrorists? They probably killed communists or worse, ordinary people with those weapons later. Even if China isn’t the main supplier of the Philippines, they are still involved.
And about Nepal, Nepalese Maoists controlled 80% of the country before capitulating, and managed to abolish a literal feudal monarchy. How many parties post-1991 did anything close to that? Its true there’s a lot of opportunism in Nepal nowadays, but the parties are slowly starting to merge into the RCPN.
internationalism is supposed to be a main characteristic of socialists. Where was post-Mao China internationalist?
my mistake, apparently India doesn’t receive Chinese support. But Phillipines and Nepal certainly did.
Equating China to the US is wrong, but their development since Mao’s death and the takeover of the party by the capitalist roaders hasn’t been socialist in any sort.
Also, Maoists don’t see China as potential allies because China calls them ultras and routinely sells guns to the reactionary Filipino and Indian (and the former Nepali government) governments to shoot them.
edit: India doesn’t receive Chinese support
edit 2: nevermind
If this citation applies to this context,why didn’t Mao’s China trade with Israel?
And on Nixon’s visit, he conceded recognition to the PRC and Mao accepted, following Lenin’s principle of a somewhat peaceful coexistence with imperialists, to allow the development of struggle inside imperialist countries. How many struggles is Mr. Xi helping by legitimizing the colonization of Palestinian land? Also, how many popular struggles have the Dengists helped since taking power? I mean actual struggles, not arming the reactionary armies of Myanmar, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Pakistan to murder separatists enforcing their right to self-determination.
