      So I’ve noticed the propaganda about China has shifted over the past ten years. It used to be “China is a hyper-capitalist hellhole where everyone works for 2 cents an hour and you need a gas mask to breathe.” Now it’s “Yeah, China is fixing their problems, they’re building ultramodern infrastructure and unrolling impressive social programs, BUT IT ALL COMES AT A COST.”

          Maoists website in 2076: “It’s now impossible to deny China is socialist, BUT I’M STILL MAD ABOUT THE GANG OF FOUR”

        I recently tried looking up what the MSM says about the homeless population in China and how they try to help their situations, basically every site I checked was like “yea sorry to say but they’re doing well. We disagree with what they’re doing, but yea😔their centers for feeding and clothing the homeless and trying to work with them to get them housing and occupation/education opportunities are successful, sigh😞” it’s crazy to read. Like the Economist was the only one being like “uh China bad, they HAVE homeless people in their country.”

      At the cost of a disproportionate amount of casualties among Party members. It is the duty of every CPC member to render aid in times of emergency, even at risk to their own lives.

      Recently, a deputy mayor in Shulan City, a Political Commissar of the PLA, and a senior Party Member engineer were swept away by flood waters while directing evacuations and flood fighting from the front.
