Yeah I kinda just ignored the China bit there. I think things probably look pretty sweet right now if you are a Chinese citizen.
Its not impossible to move to China if you are in danger of persecution in the west(they've even recently relaxed visa regs), or to
to fight for a revolutionary change to a China style system at home
or at the very least advocate for reform to your local system so that it more closely resembles China's where the working class control the commanding heights of the economy
(through a vanguard party, and not as in a idealised but not currently realistic system of direct democracy and instantly recallable delegates as advocated by most anarchists, and China is increasing the amount of horizontal power in society such as increasing the amount of worker co-ops, but not at a rate most anarchists would like)
rather than have Oligarchs dictate everything
