China has literally lifted billions of people out of poverty since Deng's reforms...

They haven't joined the Russian Federation yet, but that's clearly the next step.

Socialism is a long process. Poverty has to be extinguished first, and that requires market reforms.

No - Taiwan is rightfully part of China just as Donetsk is rightfully part of Russia.

Of course Russia is a democracy but it's a bourgeois one. China is the only radical democracy in the world. It's normal for counter-revolutionaries to be curtailed in a socialist society. It's for the good of the people's democracy that the revolution isn't poisoned by NATO sympathizers.

It's well known that Kurds are racist, transphobic and homophobic. They only pretend to be leftists so NATO will help them kill Arabs.

What about full process democracy?

Agree to disagree.

Since I have you here, what do you think about full process democracy?

I think it's basically what anarchists advocate for.

I meant anarcho-socialists, not individualists like that guy.

So what happens if someone murders people or steals their kids?

All leftists are anti-fascists, so we don't just stand by and watch as nazis take over a country.

Being against NATO doesn't make you pro-war genius.

Hierarchy is something that is hard-coded into nature, it's impossible to be against all hierarchy. The definition of anarchism is a stateless, moneyless society governed by direct democracy.

Am I to understand the so-called anarchist doesn't believe people should be free to determine their own political future?

it's a common misunderstanding that anarchists oppose all hierarchy.

Are you really saying anarchists don't believe in self government and democracy?

but you have an internal hierarchy within the religious organization.

To be fair, anarchists aren't against hierarchy, only unjustified hierarchy. So it's technically possible for a religious organization to have positive hierarchy, for example if the church elders are elected democratically.

Source: I'm a reformed anarchist.

Since when are anarchists against laws? I thought laws were accepted so long as they're democratic. Rules but not rulers.

I actually agree with you for once. Rojava is an imperialist project funded by NATO to destabilize Syria and its lawful anti-imperialist government.

Typical anarchist.
