You see folks, Karl Marx and Freddy Engels, two very smart guys from Germany - my ancestors are German as well, I have the Germany gene in me - they were smart guys, folks, scientist types, and they said, before the socialistic stage happens, you gotta develop the pro-duc-tive forces, productive fellas, not destructive, not constructive, but productive, productive forces, gotta have 'em, can't miss 'em, you really need them to build up the capitalisms, that's what Marx told us, very smart guy, so smart, so then a feller by the name of Mao came along and said you know what, let's jump straight into socialism, no good I tell you, no good - I respect Mao, 70% good 30% bad as they say, but you gotta do the productive forces first, that's what Marx told us, smart guy, so once Mao past away, may God rest his soul, then his buddy DENG came along, now Deng was no dummy, Deng thought bigly, bigly about the future of Chyna - great place, great people, great food, great women with tiny feet, the tiniest, I know 'cause I did Miss Universe, Chinese women had the tiniest feet, had to get their high heels in the children's department over at Macy's, but children, the female child, usually doesn't wear high heels, so they are hard to find, believe me, I looked - Deng said let's do what Marx toüld us and develop these productive forces, and boy are they being developed! Private property? It'll be gone by 2050, believe me. And Xi told me, he's the current leader of the China, he told me he's oppressing the billionaires, and you know what? I trust him, I trust the man, I meam look at Jack ma, what happened to him? I haven't seen him in outside and when i do, he looks scared, so scared, low energy, quite sad. But me and Xi we're good friends, very good friends and he knows what he's doing folks, trust me, trust the plan, trust God, may God bless us all, the People's Republic of China and the United States of America, both of em, we gotta work together, gotta do it, 2050.

Inshalah can't deny that incredible things are happening in China though

Incredible things are happening in china, but at what cost?

There's no cost that's the beauty of proletarian Capitalism with asian-tiger-economy characteristics

Yeah people gotta realize that ideology isn’t the definition of economic systems

you're not wrong but China is run way better than most other countries in the world atm especially as a major power, so most of the fetishism surrounding China has far more to do with some form of public/private mixed-sector competent authority existing, something which at this point in time is a pipe dream in the west.

Much agreed comrade, however the growing movement against the racialist falsification of history, despite increasingly desperate denial from the pseudo-left Pabloite revisionist renegades, is striking fear into the hearts of the global imperialist monopoly bourgeoisie. Global capitalism, now more than 80 years into its terminal death agony, can only be transcended through the fulfillment of the objective historical revolutionary role of the proletariat. The emancipation of the proletariat must be the act of the proletariat itself - under the sole leadership, of course, of the one true world party of socialist revolution, the International Committee of the Fourth International. In their steadfast struggle against all forms of pseudo-left vulgarizations of revolutionary Marxism, David North and the SEP have won the Rank and File proletariat to a genuine Marxist program. The contradictions of global imperialism threaten a Third World War fought with nuclear weapons, and therefore the fate of not just the working class, but the human species itself, depends on resolutely exposing the Pabloites, Grantites, Cliffites, Healyites, Hansenites, Wohlforthites, Mandelites, Steinerites, and all other forms of counter-revolutionary opportunism blocking the path to left unity and planetary proletarian revolution. We urge all workers, youth, and intellectuals stirred by this call to action to unite in the Rank and File Committees and to contact the International Committee today.

The Dollar Index (DXY) hit 100 yesterday, marking essentially the strongest value of the USD since 2016, a prior value not seen stably since like prior to 2001. the DXY has been steadily going up since the beginning of 2020 despite popular belief, and despite doomsaying about economic fallout, it has not actually damaged the USD at all but actually strengthened it (according to averaged index points economically such as this). what are people's takes on this

Petrodollar theory is bullshit when ppl talk about it being useful to keep the dollar's value high, it's about the power that comes with needing access to dollars to buy certain goods
