How do they not meet the standard?
They have a democratic state which owns most of the MoP.
If you don’t think China is democratic, what would they have to do in order to meet the definition?
A democratic state where the proletariat are in control owning the MoP fundamentally isn’t capitalist, “state capitalist” or otherwise. Capitalism requires specific social relations that aren’t met within socialized ownership.
Please read “Imperialism: the highest stage of capitalism” and then explain what you mean.
There was some integration (as second class citizens) and some displacement.
Yes they straight up have displaced Jewish Palestinians.
No, settler colonialism
No country is an angel though, at the same time Britain was intentionally starving Indians and the US had Japanese American citizens (including children) in concentration camps
How has China been picking up the slack? Who have they couped or invaded? Who have they sanctioned?
Edit: did you downvote before you confirmed the image is historically accurate or after you confirmed the image is historically accurate?
The US isn’t a democracy though, it is a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie, where every election we get to select which group of oppressors will wield state power against us until the next one.
Also decline is caused by anticolonial resistance and the logic of capitalism breaking down. I would suggest reading Lenin’s “imperialism” and Fanon’s “wretched of the earth”
On one hand yes, on the other hand China is a democracy with a dominant marxist leninist party which understands that imperialism is an unstable system and that mutual development is better for the long term stability and prosperity of China because MLs literally wrote the book on understanding imperialism
They’ve explicitly said “the era of zero sum diplomacy is over”
NATO loves to do Libya’s, theyre not a self defense organization they’re an imperialist alliance.
And that isn’t democratic because?
