Chris:
: China does debunk the traditional marxist-leninist approach of a party lead revolution but not anarchism/libertarian communism. (Although the students did look to america and got no real support or responce from 'the worlds greatest democracy.' Still I feel I'm about to get into a debate about wether China was socialist or state capitalist with some one who I agree with. Sorry, but China has to be seen as another way in which capitalism exploits , but still pretends to be the best for and representative of the people. I just felt that quote summed up china.)

EC:
I think we agree, China is a capitalist country, suplying slaves for capitalist ventures the world round. Look at 90% of the crap in a place like Wal-Mart: Made in China. Is this production for need? I guess not! THis is why it gets tedious to hear the same old, "you mean like China?" syndrome.
