How exactly will focusing on those companies instead ensure that criticisms of capitalism are taken seriously?

The title is misleading though. There's no talk of communism at all.

I mean we live under capitalism right now and so our imaginations are understandably limited by what exists in society today. How would you see it then? I think the OP kinda sees humans being encouraged to take up a more generalist lifestyle instead of today's specialist lifestyle where people have careers and professions.

Excellent post, comrade. I have to ask though, does Xi touch upon the issue of defense against imperialism, both internal and external? Does he have anything noteworthy to say about something like Obama's pivot to Asia?

It's a dream scenario. It did not exist and hence never died.

I mean it's not that complicated. It means quote: "while in communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticise after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, herdsman or critic."

Why do you say rip?

some people in these circles have a way too delusional view of China for my liking, and will defend basically every part of it.

Which defenses have you found to be problematic in these supposed circles, enough to warrant the title of 'delusional'? Have you realized we're in a new cold war, with an increasing possibility of a hot war by the day? What need is there for any western leftist's unheard "nuance" in the current moment? You see people defending the PRC fiercely because they understand the stakes and rightly treat a dangerous moment with utmost seriousness.

Yeah, I wish it was better and I do think there are serious issues.

Why are you telling us this and not bringing your vague concerns to the CPC itself? What is the reason any western leftist even brings this up in the first place anyway?
