Is China a land of contradictions?

It's not a land of contradictions. They just used Das Kapital as a manual.

Heh. Marx actually impregnated his maid while having his wife. So he's a reverse kek, in that sense.
Stalin was even worse, apparently. He had so many illegitiamte children, we assume we don't know them all. And the ones we do, many of them died.

China distrusted Free Market Economics, so it created State Market Economics with Deng. This isn't understood in the West, but its its own unique system.

>isn't understood in the West
Do you really think there is anything those zipperheads do that isn't understood by the West, particularly when it comes to economics?? For crying out tears, the Chinese don't do or have a single thing that isn't an outright analog of something they stole from the West.

It isn't understood because Westerners are too fucking arrogant while they are failing.
Marx was a Westerner (An Anti-Semitic Lutheran, by the way,) who articulated (about half) of the problems of Free Market Capitalism.
Rather than try to make Free Market Capitalism work after Mao, the Chinese 'stole' his lessons to create a more productive system, which, although has it's share of problems, did industrialize China very fast.
It gets harder and harder to respect Western Civilization, because any nuance of intelligence is considered bad. We are no better than East Asia, when it comes to this level of close-mindedness.
I guess that's why East Asia stole our jobs. They had the humility to listen to skeptics, rather than blindly trust big business to tell us what to do.

Funny thing is that China has more freer market than Europe and USA and which is in fact a capitalist invention.
