  • You realize there has been three China since 1900? Qing dynasty -> Republic of china -> Current China. Also wtf are you even saying? You know the first thing that comes out from “Chinese atrocities from 1900” in google is the boxer’s rebellion? A push back from the people against the invading foreign powers that were starving China? This is like blaming Hamas/Hezbollah for pushing back against Israel, which i imagine you also disapprove of. Truth is that for most of the 19/20th century, China has been a recipient of atrocities by foreign invaders not a perpetrator, you should be aware of this if you’re so aware about the scale of China.









  • In Britain, enrichment became the end in itself. Industry hollowed out. Finance swelled. The state stopped building and started selling.

    In case you didn’t know, Lenin’s Imperialism, the highest stage of capitalism is an early study of this phenom. By studying the growth of savings banks in Europe and it’s inherent tendency to consolidate, Lenin developed the theory that financial capital will inevitably gobble up industrial capital because banks end up having access to the money supply of everyone, from workers to capitalists. It is worth a read for anyone that curious to understand what is going on in the world right now.
