I totally understand the point, I can't and don't want to tell the Chinese how to run their society. I also agree that the West mutch can learn China. I don't think "but we need to compare its system to the real world alternatives available to us." is a good argument. Its used by those in power to deny new ideas and stay on the status quo. Capitalists use the same argument to excuse their dysfunctional system.

Just think, if you want socialism, you should look at different approaches. Perhaps we can learn not only things from China, but also anarcho-syndicalism, troscism or other ideas.

funny, Rudolf Rocker would agree, but not in the way Xi does. An authoritarian state suppresses culture and all socialist ideas. With all due respect, I really like most of your memes, I just think that supporting state capitalism won't liberate us
