That's also why they are so fucking into coops and "workplace democracy" and all that shit, because they imagine the liberation of the proletariat through its embourgeoisement. Just make every worker a shareholding board member and you've solved capitalism, bro. The most irritating version is the "gift economy" or "barter trading" or the pseudest of all the "potlach" types who basically envision humanity going back to early artisanry (that through history, became one of the first bourgeois employers of labor anyway). These are the same people who will constantly shit on China though for being the "same capitalists as the West."

And the reason for all of this is that the westoids are literal parasites on the working classes of the Global South so they don't want a radically different society, what they want is a slightly improved life for themselves. Their ideological statements, their dreams and wishes reveals this clearly. That these "leftists" immediately turn pro-NATO whenever it's time to "liberate a country" is not incidental – they intuitively know that their way of life depends on it. That 99% of westoid unions are completely devoid of radicalism and favor incremental change is also a symptom, that for westoids the place for Marxism is in the academia and not in the factories is another.

Making the proletariat stronger gives it more revolutionary potential, not less. If you look back at the bourgeois revolutions, they didn't happen when the bourgeoisie was at its weakest. They happened when the bourgeoisie was ascendant. The same will be true of the proletarian revolution.

Miss me with your fucking empty phraseology, you booklet fuck. Having coops in the West doesn't empower its proletariat, it pacifies them. Running a collective of petit-bourgeois coworkers makes life way more tolerable. There's absolutely nothing about coops that would propel people towards more revolutionary consciousness. The people who tell you that "it shows another world is possible" are feeding you lies and jiggling a key chain at your stupid infant face.

>If you look back at the bourgeois revolutions, they didn't happen when the bourgeoisie was at its weakest.

You stupid shit, listen to me. The bourgeoisie became empowered NOT through imitating the feudal classes, falling back to their outdated mode of production, intermingling with them, or by forming enclaves of production only seemingly separate from the whole of feudalism. You literally advocate for pacifying workers when you advocate for forming coops, just like you would have done the same if you advocated for the nascent bourgeoisie to try to become lords or part of the aristocracy or clergy.

Stupid fucking shit.

Your "point" was nothing but talking around the plain fact the the bourgeoisie was economically ascendant when they finally achieved revolution. It wasn't even accurate, since, yes, they did emulate the aristocracy during their ascendency. But no matter how you try to couch it, the bourgeois revolutions occured when the bourgeoisie had a very large degree of control of the economy. They were not the hopeless, downtrodden lowest class of society. Attempts by the desperately weak and impoverished have always played out like the peasant rebellions of the ancien regime. Yeah, they are eager to fight, but their cause is hopeless. They are not revolutionary. inb4 zomgproblematicwesternchauvanistwhitemalepetitbourgeoislaboraristocrat

If I may be permitted to educate you.

What you are calling "accelerationism" (a term coined in the 21st century, functioning in this "debate" of ours as a stawman of your own making in your petty argumentation) is not even closely related to my core beliefs, or, to "where I'm coming from."

As I already made it implicit, mine is an orthodox Marxist view – that held by Marx, Engels, and Lenin to different degrees dependent on the theoretical development of their views in different periods of their development.

To reiterate the main points:
1. Under the current global capitalist politico-economic environment to advocate for "cooperatizing" the working class doesn't amount to "strengthening" their (abstract) "power" as hypothesized by you, and no amount of economic "self-bettering" of select pockets of the (especially Western) proletariat resulting from this can ever lead to the overall emancipation of the proletariat culminating in a DotP for the single reason that cooperatization merely means petit-embourgeoisement of the pockets of the working class (esp. in the West).

You are being continuously called a "booklet" because the congruent results are already being drawn in such classics as Marx's The Poverty of Philosophy, and Engels' Socialiasm – Utopian and Scientific. Parallel to this runs a long Leninist tradition calling out core-capitalist unions for being "reformist," and the general population being "labor aristocrats" (stemming back to Engels).

It makes me think that you don't actually understand what the term "embourgeoisement" (a term spanning back to Marx and Engels) even means. It means that a specific sector of a specific economic unit's (e.g. country's) portion of the working class becomes enfeebled in terms of revolutionary potential and becomes aligned in terms of (oft global) class interests with their local (and int. aligned [in case of global] imperialist) bourgeoisie proper.

But this is just one line of argumentation you didn't understand.

The other one argued against your infantile idiocy regarding the levels of modes of production, in developmental, or, if you'd like, Marxist-"teleological" / Marxist-"productionist" fashion. Namely, that pockets of the working class adopting a cooperative economic framework equals with their setting back in terms of development to the already existing capitalist framework.

Parallel to the two main lines of argumentation above, runs a much more basic line, namely the model of the "development of revolutionary consciousness of the working class" as observed and outlined in Lenin's What is to be Done. To TL;DR: working class revolutionary consciousness develops in direct conflict with the bourgeoisie, which your proposed model of "just do coops, lmao" tries to bypass altogether, again, resulting in a p-bourg mindset.

And finally, there is actual historic evidence proving your line absolutely incorrect and wrongheaded from a revolutionary POV – no surprise to anyone who studies Marx, Engels, and Lenin. Namely, the israeli series of Kibbutzim experiments which started as localized coops aimed at birthing socialist collectives, all organized in a cooperative fashion, but done so under the general aegis of a capitalist(/neo-colonialist) project of the state building of modern Israel. What happened on the political side (again: Engels – Utopian and Scientific) is that these futile projects became crucial vehicles for the bourgeois project of nation building for Israel, and what happened on the economic side (obv. the two being in dialectical relationship) is that said local coops started out as economic units of local "equal owners and producers"… a decade later employing poor Palestinian labor as paid wage labor (economic exploitation proper). There are literally no guarantees for this NOT to happen whenever and wherever coops arise in a capitalist (as opposed to under DotP) setting.

This is also why Rojava-fags are complete idiots and booklets like yourself, but, anon, you are about to become less of a booklet, because you've been provided with at least 3 books to read, and like 4 topics to further research….

What the Pentagon Doesn’t Want You to Know About China

To encourage Congress to authorize the largest defense budget ever, the Pentagon just released its annual report on China, which dangerously misrepresents the country’s defense strategy. Such deliberate lies about China to drum up justification for more US war spending need to be urgently addressed.

Let’s debunk these lies:

On Nuclear Weapons: The Pentagon reports that China possesses around 400 nuclear warheads with no clear plan on how to use them. If this estimation of China’s arsenal is correct, it’s still trivial compared to the US’s almost 6,000 warheads. China is the only nuclear power with an unconditional “no first use” policy, and has been clear that it only intends to use its nuclear power for assurance and defense. Meanwhile, the United States is the only country to have used nuclear weapons in war and has also flirted with escalating tensions into a nuclear war with Russia this year. Who is preparing for war?

On Global Military Presence: The Pentagon reports that since China established its first overseas military base in Djibouti, it has ambitions to expand its military presence globally. At the same time, the United State has more than 750 military bases in around 80 countries. This includes more than 250 bases in the Asia-Pacific encircling China with 375,000 personnel in the Indo-Pacific Command, while China has no military presence in the Western Hemisphere. Who is preparing for war?

On International Order: The Pentagon reports that China may challenge the US in the international arena. It is true that China is taking the lead internationally in economic development, in technological innovation, and in fighting climate change. Other countries around the world are happy for its support in growing their capacities to be independent of United States hegemony in their regions. China builds relationships through economic cooperation and good diplomacy. In contrast, the United States asserts its global dominance through direct or proxy war, occupation, crippling sanctions, and regime-changing coups. The international order that the United States seeks to maintain is rooted in violence and destruction. Let’s invest in peace, not war!

While the United States is desperately pursuing its outdated policy of enforcing global hegemony, the rest of the world is already moving towards a multilateral sphere, which ensures the greatest chance for peace. Escalating tension with China was a mistake, and building a colossal military budget is doubling down on this mistake. We must be vigilant about the warmongering lies about China. “China is not our enemy” is not a hollow slogan but firm ground that peacemakers stand on.

Nobody said, "just do coops." What was said was, "empower the working class," and no, Patrick, suicide nets are not empowering the working class.
>There are literally no guarantees for this NOT to happen whenever and wherever coops arise in a capitalist (as opposed to under DotP) setting.
Christ, if you're going to make an argument against coops, at least pick an example that isn't just hippies. Cerro Rico is a far more damning example.

It is long established (and, I should add, since then empirically established) that all forms reformism and utopianism (incl. "establishing coops") do not favor revolutionary consciousness developing in the masses. Would you please provide a historic counter example if you had one?

Not just the "Orthodox" but the basic fucking Marxism101 tells us that said consciousness develops via the proletariat as a mass confronting the bourgeoisie.

Nothing I've said above is even remotely considered to be controversial among mainline Marxists.

Please consult the above mentioned classics (ME&L). This whole "debate" is a joke.

There's no "sub-chapter D" in the MECW Capital vol. 1. under ch. 25, anon. In fact, even "ch. 25" is written in roman numerals – "XXV".

Please VERY PRECISELY POINT TO THE EXACT PLACE where Marx supposedly
1) coins "labour aristocracy";
2) and coins it in a "SARCASTIC" way in pdf-rel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Protip: previous sources have been given that disprove your claim that 1) "it was coined in capital" since much earlier sources are available for the coinage of the term; 2) the whole "it's a joke" charade was already disproven by detailed quotations above.

>but why the sudden change in policy
It wasn't unexpected, a while ago Xi Jinpin maid a big deal about Houses being for living.
Which means they are going after real estate speculators, not only because they are parasites that do nothing but raise the cost of housing, but also because private real estate in China has been creating financial bubbles, which causes economic instability, and that is a big NO NO in China.

But the Chinese private real estate sector has also been shit in a myriad of other ways, they frequently abandoned partially finished construction or skimp on build-quality to such an extend that it created structural integrity risks. That meant new buildings could not be used because they failed safety inspections and there were some fatalities, a few buildings actually collapsed while being occupied by people. So they really had it coming. Don't get me wrong tho Chinese construction is generally good quality, but there were enough "technical irregularities" to cause political consequences.

>do you think they're predicting a big ass global recession soon

Many people are predicting a recession in the west, but China doesn't appear to be heading towards one.
I don't think that a recession in the west will significantly affect China, they have considerably reconfigured their economy after the 2008 financial crash. If the west tanks it's economy again, the Chinese will just turn up the knob for internal consumption to substitute for the loss of commodity export markets. That should shield them from most of the fallout. So it won't be global.
If you are asking whether their decision to move more real-estate into the public sector has something to do with global events: Maybe a little, real estate finance is a fickle beast that is easily disrupted by happenings, but i'm leaning towards mostly domestic reasons.

The likelyhood of China nuking Japan is low even during a war. Although they might consider it if Japan ever tried to get it's own nuclear arsenal. But you are right the Japanese population is likely not on board, even a conventional war is plenty horrifying.

Nukes can't rationally be used, but that doesn't mean they won't be used. You can't play a game of who blinks first.

They have a style of conducting international politics that is based on maximizing agreeableness, they do this because it's better for business, it would be a fatal error to mistake it as weakness.

This is probably one of the stupidest things I have ever read in my life. People exist today who literally say people get incinerated in Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Anime as a medium literally has roots in the Atomic Bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Why do you think a lot of anime themes(especially OVA of the 80s and 90s) revolve around an existential terror and threat of nightmarish proportions? There's tons of anime covering specifically these events.

The fuck you're smoking? Japan is the primary military logistical hub for the US military in the Asia-Pacific. It gets nuked the moment gloves come off.
Well, at least Okinawa gets nuked, at least in the scenario where the ruling class actually knows wtf it wants and is ready for a total annihilation (hello Russia).
Maybe not right away, and maybe not even by a nuke, but Okinawa gets obliterated in all scenarios.

I don't think China has the capacity to naval block Japan by using subs and ships, so that leaves nukes.
It would be BEYOND russkie levels retarded to not use every possible weapon to destroy the enemy logistical hubs in the Asia-Pacific when the theater of war is right at your border and burgers need to cross the ocean to get to it.

I could imagine that they might nuke Guam because the US stations a lot of nuclear bombers on that Island.
But they will smash Okinawa with conventional weapons. And they do have the navel yard construction capacity to build a fleet, that can blockade Japan. I think the Chinese will fight with an incremental methodical style, and deliberately iterate their military systems, while they ramp up pressure over time.

>It would be BEYOND russkie levels retarded to not use every possible

The Russians are acting deliberately, their goal is not just to impose a crushing tactical military defeat on Ukraine (American shock and aw style), they want to drain Ukraine of it's ability to fight, because they don't want an insurgency after the war. Their goal is for the fighters that can be motivated by the Bandera-wing to have the fight beaten out of them, and all their weapons supplies destroyed by this war, So that when it's over it's really over for good. And they want to achieve all of this while minimizing their own military personal casualties and war-economics hardships for their own population.

If the US can force the Japanese to attack China. The Chinese won't just try to beat them militarily, they will seek to completely break down Japanese society until it can be remade into something new that will never be hostile towards China again. Think more along the lines of what happened after WW2 to the defeated countries.

Unlike you they are also thinking about what happens after the war.

It's a balloon for equipment, likely a science experiment or a weather balloon.
Those balloons can't be directly steered. But it's possible to predict weather patterns. If released at a specific time and place, those weather pattern will carry the balloon on a predictable path. So you sort-off can choose where they go. But it's not a perfect mechanism, balloons can drift of course. That is the most likely explanation for this.

Of course it's also possible that it's a Chinese spy balloon. China has spy satellites that scan the US (the reverse is also true) so there can hardly be a sensible reason for such a puzzling stunt.

They don't have turrets, a turret means that it can aim independently from the direction the jet is facing.
But they do have a big 20mil dogfight cannon.

>It seems so unnecessary.

Yeah they probably could have shredded the balloon with that cannon.
Now that i'm thinking about it, a balloon moves quite slow, and a jet moves quite fast.
The balloon wouldn't be in cannon range for very long. Maybe they didn't want to risk the jet catching on the balloon or something.

>How much are one of those fuckers anyways?

I don't know what missiles they used but for the F22 standard air to air armament is
the "cheap one" Aim 9 is $200k a pop
the expensive one Aim 120 is $1 million a pop

There is no way the balloon cost anywhere near as much.

Militaries aren't built for the purpose so many think they're made for. If you wanted a military that would win a total war, you wouldn't have the imperial army, but a mass army and a reasonable willingness to accept conscription and make something out of useless grunts. That is the thing military leaders abhor more than anything else, because they like their warrior aristocracy and sense of elitism.

Anyway I mentioned on the other board (before mod faggots deleted all my posts) that US and China have no real reason to engage in a war of any sort. Even the "Trade war" was more performative, as was the "pivot to Asia" from Obama. It's the sort of thing that makes for dinner conversation with the rubes, but anyone serious laughs at that. The matter was settled by Nixon and Mao in the 1970s, and this setup of the global system depends on Asia being held by the CCP. If you're a global oligarch, you love everything coming out of China right now. Xi is president for life and made himself ridiculously safe within the party, does basically everything the oligarchic leadership actually cares about, and the US ruling class press pumps up Xi as the magnificent bastard. Right now, Xi is portrayed as the smartest man in the room, and if you know how to read American agitprop tea leaves, it suggests that they like the situation very much, and no one wants to fuck that up. I have yet to see a good reason why anyone competent would throw away the US-China arrangement, or why China would see Dugin's Eurasian faggotry as anything other than desperation.

<BEIJING, March 1 (Reuters) - Plans by China's Communist Party to revive a high-level economic watchdog after two decades signal President Xi Jinping push to increase oversight of the financial sector, analysts say, part of a wider tightening of control by Xi and the party.
<Xi, who secured a precedent-breaking third leadership term in October, is planning to resurrect the Central Financial Work Commission (CFWC), which will be directly under central party leadership, two people briefed on the matter told Reuters.
<A decision to revive the commission may be revealed following the annual gathering of the National People's Congress (NPC), the people said. The NPC, to begin its session on Sunday, is set to confirm a new slate of economic leaders chosen by Xi.
<"Overall, the top leadership is not very satisfied with the situation in the financial sector, and the problem is related to the political stance among the state-owned financial institutions," said Xu, pointing to what he said was frustration among senior party officials that their directives are not properly implemented.
<"Xi throughout wants centralised, vertical power through Party committees that directly report to him," said Alfred Wu, associate professor at the Lee Kwan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore.

The US Neocons made TSMC relocate chip-factories to the US, and the result of that is:

<More than 3,000 semiconductor engineers have departed Taiwan for positions at mainland China companies, the island's Business Weekly reports. Analysts at the Taiwan Institute of Economic Research say this figure appears to be accurate. That amounts to nearly one-tenth of Taiwan's roughly 40,000 engineers involved in semiconductor research and development.

yes, they tried to make it look like TSMC was just expanding its operations into the west, but they're unbolting the most advanced stuff from Taiwan and are shipping it to the US

<China War Risk Sees Taiwan’s TSMC Moving Fabs to US, Japan


<At first glance, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp’s plan to build foundries in Japan and the US looks like just another routine business expansion.


<But dig deeper and it quickly becomes clear that these are not just more run-of-the-mill deals.


<Just exactly how TSMC and western nations navigate the away from production heavily concentrated in Taiwan is a delicate balancing act. If it is moved out too quickly or if too much pressure is applied on TSMC to create a supply chain that excludes China, Clifford warns it would cause “serious friction’’ with Beijing.


<TSMC broke ground on a $12 billion plant in the US in June last year and it’s scheduled to start producing 5-nanometer chips in 2024. It may add up to five additional fabs on the site

You could certainly interpret this as the imperial bourgeoisie removing all the important stuff from Taiwan before they turn it into a war-zone.
The official line is less ominous, they state that their intent is to hedge their bets in case China cuts off access to Taiwan, securing supply lines so to speak.

It could be both.

No this is not real influence, you can only choose from the options that corporations give you. Real influence is when you can influence what choices are being made available. See for example smartphones where the head-phone-jack, removable batteries and sd-card memory, has almost disappeared as an option. It was corporate bureaucracy that decided to remove these features against popular will.

<The communist party is a political organization that grants the general public at least some influence.

Outside the comically shrill imperialist narrative of "autotarian totaloltarian rageemes" that can magically remote control a billion people by sheer willpower, it's well understood that all governments are subject to pressure from popular opinion.
Besides that the Chinese communist do practice a form of democratic consent seeking that they call "deliberative democracy"

China is not a capitalist country. The Chinese capitalists do not have a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie that puts them above the law. If the Chinese bourgeoisie would attempt to overthrow the Chinese state, they would be put against the wall, imprisoned or exiled.

So given the realities of political power in China, they do have a very good chance at genuinely regulating a private capitalist sector, until it fades away because the capitalist mode of production has been made irrelevant by changes in the material conditions. They aren't weak like social democratic governments in the past where material progress for the conditions of the workers could be reversed. Of course there still is some danger that China will have a regression too, that's always going to remain a possibility until the capitalist mode of production has been rendered non-viable by the motions of history.

It also depends on what is being regulated, the Chinese appear to be reasonably good at regulating the bourgeoisie rather than the behavior of the masses. Of course they do sometimes miss the mark. Recently youth video-game addiction became a problem in China and they put in a state-mandated time-limit for how long Chinese minors can play games. They should have banned the addictive interaction-loops that replicate casino gambling addiction instead.

To answer your question, how is China going to realize worker control over the means of production.
At the moment they aren't really doing that.
I saw someone explain it rather aptly like this:
<capitalism is violence and you can't blame the Chinese for using it as a tool to fight against capitalist imperialism.
It's a concession to material reality where they have to fight against an imperial power that wants to prevent them from developing. At the moment their principle goal is to navigate the decline of the US empire relatively unscathed.

The stuff from this post >>467010 that's a direct consequence of the US's high-tech embargo. The socialist ideological element is mainly that the intervention from the Communist party is to direct development towards what's most suited for advancing the productive forces rather then doing what's most profitable. In that particular area the Chinese communists are orthodox Marxists. Marx thought that socialism needed the most advanced productive forces and they do too. They think that one of the things that brought the Soviet Union down was that it wasn't able to out-tech the US during the cold-war.

If you are in the west you should push for worker control of the means of production because there is no big capitalist power that could existentially threaten the west, but you can't blame the Chinese socialist for making surviving against imperialism their priority.

Sure, if you define capitalism in a completely vague, self-serving, mealy-mouthed manner that renders it a functionally useless word. Of course in the real world capitalism is a mode of production where someone invests in materials, tools, land, etc. and worker wages in order to sell the resulting product for more value than they started with–China has all of that in spades.

>china won't be the savior of the proletariat that dengoids claim it is, but chinese elites look like the most sane from the bunch

When Dengism was introduced everybody thought that the Chinese system would get eroded by neo-liberalism the same way that social democracy was. However it didn't, Dengism turned into Xiism and the neo-libs who wanted to sell out the Chinese state got btfoed. The devellopment of the productive forces continued and the capitalist class wasn't allowed to take political power, the Deng bros kept their word, it wasn't pretty but it worked.

I get the impression that what the Chinese are doing is letting capitalism operate as long as it's improving the productive forces, stays away from political power, socializing losses or interfering with social developmental goals. In the long run that means that every time capitalism produces a crisis a small part of it gets trimmed away for crossing one of these lines. Eventually all parts of capitalism will fall to the wayside because they became a hindrance for the development of the productive forces and in the long run it will give way to a socialist system.

>it's a general rule of thumb that if you were not educated in the marxist critical tradition to some degree - you grow up to be a political idiot that gets genuinely surprised when a leninist party structure doesn't automatically crumble in the face of "superior" parliamentarism

This is true but i kinda have to admit that i don't really understand why the Soviet ML structure broke and while the Chinese one remained solid. The only significant structural difference was the Chinese party was more involved with the military than the Soviet One.

For the same reason industry left in the first place: industrial capital became so unprofitable that capitalists would rather invest in financial instruments or move overseas where they can pay labor a fraction of the wages demanded in the US.

I was talking about the deliberative democracy part what they call xieshang minzhu. People genuinely seem to have considerable democratic influence on what local and regional governments do. It's difficult to find information about that because if you search it online it's hard to get past the ruling ideology noise.

By the way the Soviet union had a leadership democracy, not parliamentarian-ism. China probably can't be counted as parliamentarian either, because in China it's not possible to get elected into a higher political position without having gone through all the lower ranks first. I'm not sure about the political effects, although if politicians have to rise through the political machinery, they will get more institutional experience and it's probably also a corruption filter where corrupt people get filtered out at lower levels more often.

Soviet Union was mainly an industrial society, while China was still mainly agrarian.

Crisis of the soviet leninoid political superstructure with its elites was a crisis of the urbanized industrial society. While Chinese leninoid elites switched to capitalism before PRC could approach this point. And it looks like leninoid political superstructure is actually a pretty efficient tool for managing the capitalist society and resolving conflicts within the capitalist class.

Industrial power is an important part of the means of production, it's the "king-maker". The power to shape matter at gigantic scales.

Industrial power made the US into the world hegemon after ww2, it's what made the Soviet Union able to smash fascism. Russian industrial power is the reason why the sanctions-war doesn't work against them. The large Chinese industrial base is what has lifted them into a position where they can say "NO" to the US.

The neo-liberal move towards de-industrialization is why the west is declining.

>capitalist elites are the ruling class in china

There's no way a bunch of billionaires could tell the politburo or the general secretary what to do. The Chinese bourgeoisie is not in control.

>Soviet Union was mainly an industrial society, while China was still mainly agrarian.

No China definitely is a industrial society, you can make the case that there are still some people doing subsistence farming but it's not the primary mode of production. Maybe you could have said this 30 years ago, and it would have been less wrong.

>While Chinese leninist switched to capitalism

>it looks like leninist political superstructure is actually a pretty efficient tool for managing the capitalist society
You could say that the PRC did a super extended and expanded version of the NEP, but it's not a capitalist country, they do not have a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. The reason why they are able to manage capitalist contradictions is because they hold the Chinese capitalists at gun point.

But while the increasing centrality of the CCP in state-owned enterprises (SOEs) is evident, its role in private companies remains less obvious.

So China released it's first smartphone where all the silicon is homegrown. Apparently they're now able to do 7nm mass-production. People consider it a competitive offering.

Anyway the anti-tech sanctions against China seem to have made China more technology independent.

I wonder if China can make it's own high-tech now, whether that means that the IP/patent shit will become less profitable, which would lower the influence on politics and make the laws less suffocating for tech development.

Open cpu architectures will be great. I think that when stuff like OpenRisk and RiskV take off that Intel and Amd will also release chips in that category, probably hybrid designs that also contain their powerfull x86 cores.

But you are right a Chinese competitor will break into the big chip duopoly. I wonder what a Chinese desktop class cpu will look like. Assuming it gets derived from smartphones SOCs it might have a pretty radical design.

I think the memory interface is due for a shake up. Processors are getting powerfull integrated graphics and machine-learning accelerator units. With that it makes sense to put a few gigs of really fast d-ram into the processor package, and optimize the normal system memory towards size. The bleeding edge of RAM is scratching at the limitations of signal pulses in wires. So either RAM will split up into onchip fast-ram plus on-mainboard bulk-ram, like i said above, or it's time to upgrade to fiber-optic data-lanes.

It will certainly be interesting to see how this plays out, if China enters the race as well, things might start moving. Also there's hoping that free and open hardware gets a boost out of this as well.

The rumor I hear is that they're waiting until after primaries to engineer an "accident" or a resignation, so the party can assert whomever they want and say "emergency". A primary contest would only weaken Biden, and also it is generally accepted that the incumbent will run for a second term. Usually the sitting party's disapproval of the incumbent would mean they get wrecked in the general. It's also well known that the discontent is not with Biden the man, but with the Democrats as a party and the entire ruling appratus. Switching Biden for a cardboard cut-out would not only not change their fate but probably makes it worse. They will need to engineer a lot more crisis to push who they want.

The real coup isn't happening because of Biden or Trump or the spectacle. There are much larger machines at work which do not want the US to continue in the recognizable form, and it was just a matter of clearing out the last generation that had a memory of the old country as anything that worked or was worth defending. If anyone wanted to salvage the country, Trump would have been removed or not allowed to run in the first place, and nothing about him would have been encouraged or tolerated. It was clear when Trump was impeached that by failing to remove him, the country was already done. All that remains is to make it official, and enough crisis has been generated to bring that about. The crisis will be worse in the next year, and at the end - at the critical happening - there will be a play to dissolve the country, or effectively do so in a way that will be obvious to anyone who still cares. As it is, Biden is like keeping the seat empty, and the open disdain for him is indicative of what the ruling power in this country wants to do.

I don't think Biden is truly "senile" in the sense that he doesn't know anything that is happening, or even is as clueless as Reagan who was nothing but a puppet of rot and death. He's not good at politics and he never had any loyalists fighting for him, but he's not so out of touch that he doesn't know what this is and how fucked he is. You could put the most competent and intelligent and sane human being in his position and they wouldn't fare any better, and you can tell that essentializing the eugenic qualities of politicians is part of this operation. It's not about anything they actually do or the obligations of the office, but about appearances and performances. Trump was 100% performative politics, and the one time he was asked to make actual decisions, he cowered like the sniveling retard he is and his supplicants are. Obama made his whole "thing" an appeal to technocratic elites governing things behind the curtain, and did everything he could to emphasize that power had moved away from the office. This is not easy, and Obama did have to do actual work to sell this, which was not something any cardboard cut-out could do, but Obama was unusual in that he didn't drone on about his legacy or the typical markers of distinction Presidents sought. Everything he did emphasized the power behind the curtain, and the role the President would play to facilitate that power over everything else. His function very clearly was to mollify the angry mob and be the cypher that would allow everyone to see what they wanted to see, and he was able to stage-manage the crisis of 2008 where the men behind the curtain couldn't. They need a leader to channel rage and divert it to useless objectives, and Obama made it one of his "things" to trigger his opponents and needle them in every way possible.

The mere existence of sniveling retarded failure that was Trump should make it clear none of this shit is real. I don't see Biden being able to do much or even making particularly bad decisions. After COVID it was clear this country was no longer governed in any democratic way that was presumed to work. The very idea of democracy is alien to the younger generations' mindset. There is no going against what has been set in motion, and I doubt it could have happened without Trump encouraging autocannibalism. Everything since 2000 has been managed to lead to preplanned outcomes, whether the people agree with any of it or not. All that matters is the loyalty of key officers who are conscious of their hatred for the people above all else.

If I'm Xi I would think Biden is the best deal in a long time. He has no choice but to be submissive to the interests Xi cares about, and everything Biden does signals a willingness to repair the relationship with China at any price. The CCP said Trump was the retard he is time and time again, and told their own people that this is what democracy creates and why it's a bad idea. So, as far as their press releases care, they've already gone on the record saying America is fucked up and the nominal rulers are safe to ignore. It would be better for them to let the Americans continue to turn on themselves than make some bold call for revolution in the US.

They did that once, sort off.

I would say that diplomatic tone/tact is important. Biden seriously screwed up, however it's not because he insulted Xi's pride by using the wrong political title or anything like that.

It's because the Chinese probably interpret it as a threat. They don't care what Biden or anybody else in Washington thinks about them. What they do, is correlate rhetoric and action. The track-record shows that if a US president calls the leader of another country a dictator, that is frequently accompanied by actions to attempt to overthrow said government either with covert warfare tactics (like the CIA doing a color revolution), proxy warfare or a direct invasion.

The Chinese probably do take into account that Biden has declined mentally and is having unscheduled unintended political outbursts. However if the US political machinery lets Biden yell 'dictator' often enough, eventually the Chinese will take this as institutional consent and then it'll have real consequences for China-US relations.

All that said what the Chinese want most is for the US to quit meddling with Taiwan, and to quit fucking with international trade. If they did that, those actions would speak louder than anything else.

I doubt the CCP expects anything else from Biden - the liberals will always say the dictator line in PR roles that Biden and that poor lesbian woman do, but privately and in enough hints, there are bigwigs that openly dismiss such rhetoric. Blinken's reaction is indicative of the relationship, and from the start, the Biden administration signals weakness and a willingness to work with Xi. Part of that is American leadership "losing face" by appearing out of touch. Blinken took his lumps early and let himself be knocked down by some Chinese diplomat guy, or he came in thinking he could talk to seasoned civil service guys with the middle school principal voice. I doubt he actually believed that was intimidating or pandering - it was a display of deliberate arrogance with the intent of him being shot down and humiliated to the global public. Outside of the game of public impressions, none of these people care about any of that. They know the US isn't going to do shit to China.

That was kind of what Moyers was behind the mask. Back then they maintained human face and acted as if there was still a public to broadcast to.
Obama was the breaking point, and then made it clear that Americans would be bombarded with propaganda as if they were an enemy population to be subdued. He made quasi-official what had always been implied by the ruling interests of this country. He continued to press for that as much as he could, and after leaving office still shows his face to sell that. Guy really hated Americans and encouraged others to do likewise.

With corpo media they masked off earlier, were more shameless and insulting towards the people. Someone watching PBS was probably looking for something that wasn't pure enabling rot, so they had a more pleasant mask. Even then, if you go back to the 1980s, formal news broadcasts were then about like those you'd find on PBS News. There was a decorum once expected about presenting journalism, because people only tolerate so much rot in the open. The vanguard worked to make Americans more and more evil since the 1990s, but with so many of these liberals, they were inside much worse than the screamingest Reaganite fags, which is saying a lot.

If we were dealing with two rational actors, that might be an option, but the US doesn't have the capacity to deal with that sort of development. It goes against its basic ideology, it doesn't have the intellectual ability to imagine that sort of world, and it doesn't have the institutional competence to handle it.

Because america's relationship with the world is based on exploitation.

All of america's power comes from their control of the dollar, and they can print as many dollars as they want. It's like going into a grocery store, loading up on stuff and then giving the cashier an IOU on the way out. Then you go home and write $1000 on a scrap of paper and mail it to the store. The rest of the world puts up with it because 10,000 nukes and the largest military in history says they have to put up with it.

Putin alluded to this in the Tucker interview. Once enough countries stand up and say, actually we're sick of your fake money bullshit and start trading with each other without dollars then that's the end. Because america doesn't really have that much of real value to trade with the world.

And china is the number one threat because they could have enough clout to say fuck america's monopoly money, everyone has to start using my monopoly money now instead. That's america's worst nightmare.

This is true for the US imperial ruling class, but not the American masses.

>Once enough countries stand up and say, actually we're sick of your fake money bullshit and start trading with each other without dollars then that's the end.

The end for the US empire for sure, but not the US as a country, US-empire is also a drain on America the country.

>And china is the number one threat because they could have enough clout to say fuck america's monopoly money, everyone has to start using my monopoly money now instead.

The Chinese show zero will to follow in the US's footsteps to become the new hegemon and build tons of military bases. The international finance thing they're working on with the other BRICS countries, with a inter-state-trade currency based on a basket of goods, that seems rather benign. At least i can't see how that would allow china to print money at the expense of other countries.

The rulers of the US hate America more than anyone. Their interests can easily move to another country. No one is actually convinced the abstraction and legal contract is power itself. The empire rules because it commands a gigantic fucking army and chokes the world, and this is not limited to its military forces but to this worldwide network of spies, police, and agentur who will fight to the bitter end for what they really believe in. Any time someone acknowledges the nature of this, it is immediately derailed or mollified, so that the cycle may continue unimpeded. They like seeing the plebs believe the money symbol is made of magic, not getting that Russia and China - especially China - run the same sort of scam, and are partners of this imperial system rather than rival metropoles. America hasn't been the center of anything for a long time, and in many ways America was never the center. It was always a harvesting ground and ritual sacrifice dumping spot for the dregs of Europe and slaves they acquired. Because the Europe-center Empire ran itself into the ground because they're fucking Satanic retards beyond the norm for the human race, America took on a role that it was ill-suited for. The Americas collectively can never compete with the Old World - the Old World is far bigger, more populous, and has nearly everything of genuine worth as far as technology and manpower. America has lots of natural resources, which it declines to exploit for perfectly understandable reasons, and that's basically it. The rulers of America have nothing but contempt for those they rule over, and always talk up Europe and every foreign power. There is nothing they hate more than Americans.

It is common that ruling classes develop pathological hatred towards those they subjugate. Tho i have seen some neocons complain that Americans being especially unwilling to give up liberties was interference to their securityzation plans. That might actually qualify as anti-Americanism that goes beyond the usual ruling class hatred.

>The empire rules because it commands a gigantic fucking army and chokes the world, and this is not limited to its military forces but to this worldwide network of spies, police, and agentur who will fight to the bitter end for what they really believe in.

So all hard-power and no soft-power ?

>especially China - run the same sort of scam, and are partners of this imperial system rather than rival metropoles.

I find that hard to believe. If China is a imperial partner rather than a anti-imperial rival, why all the antagonistic foreign policy ? The military encirclement, technology embargoes, funding of political destabilization, relentless media demonization and so on.

It's not the ordinary hatred of despotism. That's universal to every state, regardless of how it is constituted, and it is something all ruling groups believe in. Whatever their thoughts regarding the ruled, ultimately rulers lord over the things they have, and that is what they must draw upon to have slaves and armies and anything useful. The rulers of America really, REALLY hate Americans, can't stop talking about openly demociding them at the first opportunity and replacing them with foreign slaves. It's a contempt most countries could not get away with. Usually the truly nasty despots just don't care about the people they lord over and would sell them for a kilo of cocaine a head. America's rulers truly hate Americans in their essence, in anything Americans ever wanted. They hate most of all the people who were dragged here in chains or who were here long before the white man came - why, I don't know, but they are seriously triggered by nigras and I never understood that level of pathological insanity. There was not any benefit to it, and the most fervent racists weren't the Southrons believe it or not, but the progreessives who wanted an outright Final Solution to the "Negro Question" and never gave that up. What black Americans did except exist to warrant that kind of visceral disgust, I really do not know, but it's a religion with true believers who are let in on the eugenic creed, and it's not even really about race or history. It's about testing loyalty to eugenics when they declare an enemy. Only in America can the racist vanguard be so shameful and stupid that they're too chickenshit to say nigra on television, and rely on this not-so-clever wordplay to mask their filth. The only people who were equally shameful were the Krauts during the Nazi period, and guess what interests propped up the Nazis in a classic pump and dump scheme.

The idea that there is a distinction between "hard power" and "soft power" misunderstands what rule and empire really is. No empire rests entirely on the threat of violence to survive and insists on this Germanic idealist faggotry where they believe they make reality. The smart empires, and the British/American Empire was for a long time like this, think about how to manage their domains, how to keep vassals or clients on side. There is still the beast that the people around FDR built way back when - it was the default. The current people have inherited it and ran it into the ground as fast as possible, the "shit up the world Any%" speedrun. No empire has been cursed with a worse ruling clique than this one. It really is charlatans like Musk and old money assholes who love the smell of their own farts.

The US sees its "peaceful" tentacles as a war machine, no different from its armies and police and every instrument of violence it commands. "War is Peace" has been the ruling ideas for some time now. That produces are very peculiar take on cultural influence, and the Empire is far beyond anyone else in the world. The whole world speaks English as the language of commerce, technology, basically anything that really matters. No one else comes close or even expects to compete in that game. The next rival that can claim to come from a "different world" is still effectively beholden to the Empire for its position.

>If China is a imperial partner rather than a anti-imperial rival

Stop, just stop. Stop believing narratives. The CCP made its deal with the devil when Nixon did his thing. The CCP's legitimacy rests on the belief that Mao bossed around the foreigners and made China great, and if it comes out that Xi takes his orders from the Big Man up there, the people would be scandalized. Think of how bad it would be if, instead of pandering to the American people, the rulers openly said they're going to replace you with better foreigners and that your time was up. The American rulers come awfully close to that, but even in this denuded state, there are limits to what they can get away with outside of the vanguard club. China's ruling clique rules China, not the world, nor does China have pretensions that it's going to export its system or way of life. Even to their closest allies, the Chinese are not concerned with conforming to their system or ruling ideas. This is largely because their geopolitical stance is decided for them, so there's nothing for them to fight for - nor are they stupid enough to believe in great numbers that nations really are essences in eternal Schmittian struggles. But, a country pressed upon, that doesn't enjoy the greatest enthusiasm for its institutions the way Americans are trained to worship the institutions like gods, is far more likely to see themselves besieged, regardless of their actual situation. The CCP besieges its own people to a large extent and this is open policy, whereas in the US, there is a facade of so-called liberal democracy which contemptuously lies. In China, this is just stated flatly under the communist system, or the system calling itself communism these days. The Party has an explicit right to lord over you and no one is under the illusion that it works any differently. China does this not out of malice or some peculiar trait of the race, but because they have to, and this is what their people know. If you told them about the fictions of liberal democracy, they'd laugh in your face at such an absurdity and ask where the real emperor is. It does help that China makes hatred of liberal democracy a calling card of their propaganda - and when you look at liberal democracies producing a Trump who tells the world "liberal democracy is the most retarded government ever", screams it and beats it into the ruled, the CCP has an easy job to confirm that libdem does indeed suck ass. There has been a game played with China since the 1970s - and really this has been the game of the Empire with China all along - where the Chinese have to emphasize that they're under attack from the empire, and during the 50s and 60s they were under attack and sabotaged in ways that would make your skin crawl. Poisoning the crops en masse and probably causing the famine of the 1950s is just the tip of what imperial fuckery did during that time. It would take a long time to habituate the Chinese to embrace the imperial ideology, so what they do now is a long run mission to normalize it. It's very aggressive - China didn't always have social credit and this isn't a thing that is "inherently Chinese" like it made sense to them. So much of the "Great Firewall" stuff was built for them by American/imperial software engineers.

A new law to improve workers' rights has been passed in China at the national level

This law affects all companies in the country, regardless of size. It will be effective in July 1st 2024, and there are 3 key points are:

1. There is a new organ present in each company called the Employee Assembly. This organ is for employees to exercise their power of democratic governance of the company. There are two types, one is an assembly for all employees or an assembly for employee representatives. In general, companies with more than 100 employees will have an assembly for employee representatives, while less than 100 will have an assembly for all employees. The number of employee representatives must not be less than 5% of the total number of employees and also not be less than 30, while the number of managers and executives must not be greater than 20% the number of representatives. The trade union acts as the executive organ of the Employee Assembly.

2. The Employee Assembly has access to basically all the information a company stores, which can be used to affect the worker benefits of employees. It also seeks to make sure the company is always following the labor laws present at the local and national level. When a company considers dissolution or applying for bankruptcy, it is required to listen to the opinions of its trade union and employees through the Employee Assembly or by other forms.

3. All companies with at least 300 employees must have employee representatives at the board of directors, unless it already has a board of supervisors with employee supervisors elected by the Employee Assembly in it.

<China at 75: Changes Unseen in a Century


From the International Manifesto Group

>October 1, 2024 will mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, when Mao Zedong declared that "the Chinese people have stood up."


>These unified events are monumental because of the enormous role China plays in the world today. The People’s Republic of China 75 years ago was a colonial holding looted by the world powers. China is now the economic powerhouse of the world providing hope for other developing countries of Africa and the Global South fighting for sovereignty against the forces of imperialism


>U.S. threats, military encirclement and hostile propaganda are escalating daily. In this consequential moment, it is paramount that socialist, anti-imperialist, and progressive forces join together to explain and defend the role of China today.


>Discussions will include the ongoing processes of poverty alleviation and modernization; China's role in the struggle against climate catastrophe; China's contribution to Marxist thought; the significance of the Africa Summit and recent meeting of all the Palestinian organizations in China and more.
