Ever hear of Planned Profit’s use of bodies?

Bodies are economic gold mines to the Left, and as Geoffrey said, power comes out of the barrel of a gun. But to get that gun, you need gold mines to fund the creation of the formations.

He deserves it, having risen up from his ancestor’s field slave status, right?

I can’t quite figure out where they are getting this but it extends to women and LGBT people also, everyone is “bodies’ and not “people”.

More materialistic. Just want them for what they can do. Be it labor or sexual. No interest in the person or their personhood.

“What China has today is not dedicated to equal outcomes as it was under Mao. They call themselves Communist, but are really a crony-capitalist, fascist state. They had to let people get rich. They try to choose who those people are so they can control them — much like Russia does.”

I can’t agree that China under Mao was ever “dedicated to equal outcomes”. The disparity between the ruling elite and peasants was only less severe. China is IMO “a crony-capitalist, fascist state” entirely committed to the triumph of communism. They’re simply more patient than we and quite amenable to pretending to be closet capitalists who have abandoned their ideology in favor of the almighty buck. China’s adoption of capitalism is a means to economic dominance, which in turn provides the means to military dominance, which in turn is the means to political dominance, i.e. “political power grows out of the barrel of a gun” Mao Zedong

As for the viability of China’s economic plan, I would suggest that it rests upon the ability of the Western economies to continue to kick their economic ‘can’ down the road. As long as the West can keep its economic ‘house of cards’ from collapsing, China’s position as ‘supplier to the West’ will remain for the foreseeable future.

IMO, China’s communist leadership seeks nothing less than outright dominance of a world communist state. Cultural racism, xenophobia and China’s historic cultural dynamic of the ‘needs of the collective’ superseding any individual need are all fundamental factors that drive China’s embrace of communism.

If you’ve never read it, do. It explains some of the fanboi attitude about Coates.

The Leftists live on Weaponized Grievances, which is why all the minorities, racial and sexual, have to be kept in an angry ferment forever. They are the Left’s ammo dump.

From the jacket of the book, “Life Under Mao Zedong’s Rule,” by Zhang Da-Peng:
“And like countless others, Da-Peng personally became the target of the “class struggle,” as the Communist Party undertook a never-ending cycle of absurdly destructive political campaigns and purges of the so-called enemies of Socialism that culminated in the Cultural Revolution and the terrifying near-complete breakdown of Chinese society and institutions. Written many years later in Hong Kong, Life under Mao Zedong’s Rule is both Zhang Da-Peng’s dramatic and deeply humanistic personal memoir and his impassioned call to his fellow Chinese not to bury the memories of those terrible years in newfound prosperity but to reform the continuing abuses of the political system, lest tyranny recurs in China.”

What China has today is not dedicated to equal outcomes as it was under Mao. They call themselves Communist, but are really a crony-capitalist, fascist state. They had to let people get rich. They try to choose who those people are so they can control them – much like Russia does.

China has made huge gains because they started from so low on the totem pole. No one knows for sure what the true state of their economy is because it is so opaque. There has recently been panic selling in their stock market. No one on the outside really understands why, but we do know that their GDP growth is slowing from the blistering pace it’s been on since they opened up to trade with the free world and began their huge infrastructure building plan. Will things eventually implode? Many on the outside seem to think so. Will the new Chinese economic model work? We don’t know yet, but if it does, it will surprise a lot conservative free market economists. What most are hoping for is a gradual trend toward more liberalism, more transparency, and less fascism. A major implosion would not auger well for the world economy, which is drowning in deflation.

Feminism, I regret to say, has become one of the chief toxins in our culture and especially in our intellectual life (insofar as specific toxins can be discussed apart from the whole brew of leftism).

We’ll have to agree to disagree as to Red China having ‘fallen apart’. Politically, China is as ‘Red’ as ever. Militarily, China’s accelerating build up has obvious goals.

There you go again, confusing the issue with facts! 😉
