U.S. President Joe Biden on Thursday called China a "ticking time bomb" because of its economic challenges and said the country was in trouble because of weak growth.

    Capitalism with Chinese characteristics

    One little mistake though. It is actually Socialism with Chinese characteristics

      In other words… it’s capitalism with Chinese characteristics.

              Yeah, I completely thought up “capitalism with Chinese characteristics” on my own and totally didn’t just replace one word of a thought-terminating mantra invented by (supposedly) “big, scary rational” tankies at all.

              You got me, tankie - it’s all pure originality on my part.

                  Are capitalists tankies… or are tankies capitalists?

                  My, my… what interesting ideological dilemmas you tankies wrestle with, eh?

        I guess you didn’t even bothered to check my link and where it leads to. Yes it leads to your favorite Wikipedia site: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism_with_Chinese_characteristics

          Oh, you don’t have to guess… I’ll tell you straight up that I won’t bother retreading well-known propaganda created by tankies.

          I’m already perfectly familiar with it - I just called it something a bit more honest… as in capitalism with Chinese characteristics.

              Are you trying to say wikipedia invents China’s propaganda?

              Quite the extraordinary claim… but I’ve seen tankies make worse.
