No one is claiming China achieved communism, we just believe its policies reflect an attempt at building it. It’s also silly to slander a socialist state as “authoritarian” if you have read the bare minimum of Engels. If you’re earnest on supporting communism I encourage you to look into the compatible left and seek non western perspectives more broadly.

And yet you accept anti-communist slander as true without question.

Have you ever, even just once, asked yourself where those accusations come from? Who made them? Who propagated them? Why they did?

I wonder what the alternative to authoritarian is and why it involves getting overrun by bears
