    Also he is totally ignorant about China. Wisconcom once said in China hospitals are usually private. I live in a developed city of China, according to my personal experience most big hospital are state owned. And people prefer state owned hospitals. There are certainly private hospitals but they are usually small.

      While I understand mr Xi is in a tremendous position of power, and I’m sure there’s some benefits to it, I was surprised to learn the man has a very average salary in between 20-30k USD a year.

        As that line in “In the Name of the People” goes: “Money is the lower tier of power. Only the vulgar pursue it.”

          In the Name of the People

          Thank you for reminding me of the name of the show! I was trying to remember it for days now.

            It’s a great show, plus it remains an untapped source for communist memes.

          Bit hard to find sources on it. The ones I see popping up claim that he has a salary of 100 million USD a year, but that sounds absolutely ridiculous. The highest paid known head of state right now is Lee Hsien Loong of Singapore and he has a salary of around 1.1 million a year.

          That’s about the median wage in China. I’m sure he gets other perks too (if only to do his job) like a residence and a driver.

        I understand the sentiment, ultra-left revisionism can be frustrating, but i don’t think a ban is appropriate for someone who is not a lib and not a fascist. They should be educated instead and explained why they are wrong. Only if they start behaving like a troll, engaging in bad faith or spreading anti-communist propaganda despite being corrected should they be actually banned.

    Hoxhaists are kind of like the paleoconservatives of Marxism

    Hoxha was a bit fucking stupid when it came to china. His other stuff is good, but my god he needed to read Mao’s points correctly.

        I completely disagree, the rural petite bourgeois as a strategy for the Chinese revolution ended up not in failure, there I find that critique dishonest. As well, “The Great Leap Forward.” did not work in his favor, however this was patched via the further land reform which worked amazingly. The only way you can argue how the Chinese revolution failed is do to an incorrect part policy on revisionism, which is not why I am here.

            Read Chinese history, I do not want to be disrespectful, I also don’t want to be temp banned, but I could fucking scream. The Cultural revolution was Mao attacking reactionary elements within the party, and working with the mass line to the masses and attacking harmful ideas to revolution. I have no idea where this distorted view came to form. I will also add, that the landlord class was heavily eliminated under Mao via peoples’ courts.

              You don’t get banned from lemmygrad for insults, that’s strictly a lemmy.ml rule. Although we appreciate when people can keep their cool, it makes it easier for us.
