Authoritarian, communist China with its bloody history, genocides and mass murders?
What is in it for them then?

China is capitalist, not communist. You're living in the past.

Of course China will make money, but they're present and helping them. We have left these places to rot, and that's my issue - it's not even a monarchy (even though I'd abolish the lot of them in a heartbeat) issue at all. We had a responsibility to try and repair what we've done, so it only diminishes us as a nation, and us as a people when we have other countries clean our mess up.

China is great if you can overlook their Human Rights abuses like forced labour, torture, arbitrary internment, repression of cultural and religious expression... etc. etc.

Thinking you know something, whilst you're proving you know nothing, is the height of misplaced arrogance.

And North Korea calls itself the peoples republic of north korea, doesn't make that true, either.


The article itself points out that it's china's interpretation of Marxism, but you can't be anti worker and Marxist at the same time as they're in opposition.

You should let China know, they seem very confused.

Not really, they use their history and traditions to keep people subjugated.

Let me spell it out.

Marxism is purely about the workers owning the means of production. When you're forcing people to work under terrible conditions for pennies, then you can't be a Marxist.
