My god, even the best chance for socialism is hopeless because of the dollar. “it’s not doomer because the party could do something different” idgaf day after day it’s more dollars and less long term hope. Nothing China does can matter because all the green energy, all the bnr, all the poverty elimination, all of it is paid for with imperial currency and little to no interest in changing this arrangement from within. The party will talk about win-win arrangements and mutually-beneficial cooperation until the fucking nukes are flying.
The physical capital improves domestic livelihood whether its paid for with dollars, gold bullion, or bottle caps.
Don’t get all doomer because the glut of petrodollars in the market has made it a preferred form of liquidity. That’s a transitory condition.
A big reason why the nukes never launched stems from the globalism that made life too good to throw away on ideology.
sorry for using the word nukes, they’ll keep talking about cooperation with the imperialists while the oceans rise. They can’t beat climate change on their own and per some replies I got, it’s impossible for capital to plan for the future, so we’re cooked
