    The wet dream of the 1% is coming true; Their own personal army with no moral compass.

      The 1% of China? I mean, I’m sure they have an elite, but the 1% thing is usually pointed out as a sore spot for capitalism.

        China is state capitalism anyway. There isn’t much Communist about them. The “party” is their 1% permanent ruling class.

          The “party” is their 1% permanent ruling class.

          Which is as communist as is realistically achievable. Percentage may wary but not by a lot.

            Communism is incompatible with private property or classes which is why no matter how many states write “communism” on the tin, what they actually put in it is just fascist enforced state capitalism.

            China is not more communist or even socialist than the USA. A strong ruling class loves fascism and hates socialism. They are actively hostile to communism.

      On the bright side, it’s Chinese hard/software, so an ED-209 outcome is very probable, and highly anticipated.
