minus-squareAnarcho-Bolsheviklink5•2 years agoThis is good news. Euro‐American culture is hyperindividualistic, homogeneous, neopatriarchal, and artificial to the core, and the Chinese won’t miss out on much by ignoring it. The film industry is a good example; Michael Parenti brilliantly analysed it in his book Make‐Believe Media and found that it regularly buries or heavily censors films about class struggle. In fact, the Pentagon itself is responsible for directing about nine hundred films in some way and modifying them to make them less critical of Imperial America and its military. They wouldn’t even let James Bond assault a U.S. official in Goldeneye.
