if you want an analysis of China that isn't just based on vibes
Thanks, but what should i get out of this apparat from Soviet and Chinese history? What is it you are trying to say with this?
Capital has a lot of power in China to the point where some have argued it is a State Capitalist system. At the very least there is a political tension between nationalist, Maoists, and capitalists within the Chinese government and Communist Party there.
Does the average Chinese system actually feel and justifiably so, that they voice can be heard and direct the government or are they more likely to believe that speaking up will result in worse conditions for themselves and those around them?
