    While Xi Jinping likely spends little time reading Marx’s “Grundrisse” or debating the labor theory of value with his comrades

    this is such a stupid mischaracterization. xi literally has a doctorate in marxism from tsinghua university, he’s definitely read more of marx than the author of this bullshit. this whole thing reeks of having zero understanding of marxism or leninism.

      I’m pretty sure that nobody with any actual understanding of Marxism or Leninism would be let anywhere close to writing articles in western media.

          Same way we never hear about mass protests happening in western countries like France, while any protest in a place like China will get wall to wall coverage. Propaganda through selective reporting is very effective.
