I think the method of not interfering at all is far more effective. It does sound weird; but I personally think that if any attempt at meddling is made by China overtly or even just something that’s not completely covert it will be taken “to the end-zone” so to speak. America will use that, more than it already does with baseless accusations against BRICS, to associate any movement related to socialism or even leftism as “Chinese-influenced” and seek to terminate it by any means necessary with a free casus belli to do so.

China doing otherwise gives them no credibility, no basis to any of their accusations. It makes them seem more estranged and gives added emphasis to the hypocrisy. It also establishes a precedent that they respect national sovereignty…more so than the IMF or what the west has to offer.

It wont let me post my edited photo of Kirov Airships with the Cuban flag dangling over them.

Yeah, that’s a tough one. I do wonder what the solution to that is.

I wonder how much of this will draw Cuba into a more green approach. Not out of any moral necessity, but purely out of actual necessity. Oil is hard to ship; but if any green technology from China or even their own indigenous designs can make it then I suspect they’ll be alright.

the most honest, the best, the best merchants folks.

They were at least cognizant enough to offer the devices for free to their employees. I got to be a bit vague when talking about it. Feel free to come to your own conclusions though, hehe.

I think for every 18usd the staff get, they make them well over 50,000 dollars in a day.

It truly is absurd money when each device costs like 200-600 and they ship out over a 1000 a day.

It’s a medical device that is glass and glass only. I actually do think it’s a slight monopoly thing; but it’s sort of a monopoly because there really is no way to get into the market these days without budging into the giant entity that controls it. Like they won’t stop you…but good luck.

I have received a new job; very well-paying with great benefits. However, if you’re a marxist, it really blows your mind.

They make medical devices. These medical devices cost roughly 20-30 dollars to manufacture; with the equipment being at most a half a decade old, already paid off. Each one of these medical devices can cost up to 200-500 dollars at purchase. There is legit just a 300-400 dollar profit margin on each medical device (over a thousand made and shipped a day) while people are getting paid 17-19 an hour.

Crazy stuff!

“if communism is so great why did it fail everywhere”

It hasn’t, there are still successful socialist projects in the world. When you bring that up, they switch to discrediting those; you simply point out that Cuba has a higher literacy rate, life expectancy rate and lower child mortality rate than the United States despite their poverty, to which you can point to the fact they’ve been under relentless sanction and embargo…making their achievements in spite of American action.

“Communist were just authoritarian”

*"But the anti-authoritarians demand that the political state be abolished at one stroke, even before the social conditions that gave birth to it have been destroyed. They demand that the first act of the social revolution shall be the abolition of authority.

Have these gentlemen ever seen a revolution? A revolution is certainly the most authoritarian thing there is; it is the act whereby one part of the population imposes its will upon the other part by means of rifles, bayonets and cannon — authoritarian means, if such there be at all; and if the victorious party does not want to have fought in vain, it must maintain this rule by means of the terror which its arms inspire in the reactionists(reactionaries). Would the Paris Commune have lasted a single day if it had not made use of this authority of the armed people against the bourgeois? Should we not, on the contrary, reproach it for not having used it freely enough?"* ~ On Authority

“China is just as bad as the US”

China has a higher life expectancy, higher literacy rate, higher home-ownership rate, higher protein consumed per capita and generally better social services when you compare the average of the U.S (including the deep south). The great transportation in this nation and infrastructure is an outlier where wealth is concentrated while productive forces build it for all.

Hope these help, comrade!

Beheaded. The head should be a public graffiti space; free to write on, paint over or do as you wish.

It can, but in my experience when I’ve been told that for my involvement in my local org or for my admiration of China I just say “Yup, what does your country offer?” and list out all the reasons why I would be a “dirty Chinese spy/traitor”. This has worked a few times, because either their brain malfunctions and they go into hardcore anti-communist mode or they actually have to sit there and wonder why someone wouldn’t love this country dearly so. Even if they don’t acknowledge socialism itself, they can acknowledge that a socialist nation is beginning to lead the world in universities, quality of life improvements and technology while their nation begins to fall more and more behind.

It is if you consider the fact that the one capitalist state is breaking away from Western hegemony and imperialism of the dominant capitalist ideology thus engaging in anti-imperialism which is inherently anti-capitalist.

Maybe because that “biggy fascism” is the result of a global hegemony dedicated to sponsoring and funding genocide.

Maybe you’re a stupid fucking idiot with a lack of comprehension angrily lashing out at everyone around you because of your basic function failures. Really sad. Pathetic, almost. That what you wake up to every morning and look in the mirror to? I couldn’t live with myself that way.

I used to think comprehension and compassion was the key to dealing with people like you. No more. The only thing you’ll understand is a boot on the throat of your family as you watch everything you love torn apart by the monsters you sponsored eagerly.

Can’t say you don’t deserve every bit of it. Welcome to the new world your legacy created, westerner. As you watch everything else fall apart around you, you have the gall to whine about KaMaLa?

Fuck you. I’m tired of pretending otherwise.

Don’t worry, Gazans would have suffered either way. Your poor suffering as a first worlder is so pale compared to the vast quantity of extraction, slavery and social murder in the global south for your treats.

Just to assure you, we’ll do it again.
