    What on Earth are you talking about? I live in the US, not the PRC, the US is Capitalist. What point are you trying to make?

        I genuinely don’t understand what point you’re trying to make. You call Socialist theory “propaganda” and then you ask how I earn money? What’s going on?

          I thought i was talking with someone who knew first hand what they were taking about. Not a tankie.

            You’re talking to a Marxist-Leninist, who knows what he’s talking about because he spends a good deal of time reading Marxist theory and studying the various Marxist countries and their histories so as to better understand how to bring about Socialism in the US. Whining about Marxists on a Socialist comm using the hammer and sickle as an icon is silly behavior, you’re going to find Socialists on a Socialist comm.

                China is Socialist, again, as I said public ownership is the principle aspect of the economy. Can you elaborate on why you think this isn’t the case, or why you have a different definition of Socialism from Socialists, just like you did Imperialism? Did you invent your definition of Socialism too?

                I also fail to see how rejecting Socialism as Socialism makes you a “better Socialist.” Is this some kind of purity thing, or are you just confused?
