but communism prevails?


sweaty decisions


Weird you think China is a classless society. You watch too much television, its brain rot.

China is not producing all the food they need.


But since nobody helped them during their great famine they've been working on that problem and they turned their county into a massive factory since.

The fact that all other nations refused to aid them during their great famine due to ideological reasons has made them pretty insular. They know the world hates them due to this past.

Do you even realize that China has always been insular, in the past trading with them was very hard and that they literally fought opium wars with the British in an effort to kick merchants out, we're talking Qing dynasty here not communism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opium_Wars

I realize you love to spin your own narrative but this is history bud and well documented.

did they fight those wars because they were anti-merchant? or because large swaths of their population fell into drug addiction?

in any case i'd say the days of insulated China are gone, and were just a function of all sides war of the asian nations of the past when they had to fear invasion by Japan, Korea, Mongolia, and just about everyone.

Honestly, I think putting an embargo on China would be a great way to force massive private investment on ways to recover those minerals without the environmental damage. That's the kind of thing that isn't gonna get done while we can get them cheap and dirty.


You will always need mercury to separate gold from shits.

All of this just shows one thing, empires sucks and gets more violent over time.

They were notoriously hard to trade with and didn't want foreigners in the country.

The opium wars were the result of western powers not accepting that the Chinese regulated opium.

a trait common to most asian countries, given the rich history of asian wars. no people are more racist by nature than asians because of this insulated history.

but i still maintain china's days of wanting insulation are done, and have been for some time. they still want to centralize the wealth in china, but they're ready for full on globalism in regards to trade.

Agree that their days of insulation are over, has nothing to do with my original comment though --> replying to Skinned claiming China's insulation stemmed from the great famine
