President Xi Jinping pledged to redistribute wealth while turning up the heat on China’s upscale citizens and businesses. So, what keeps Chinese communism going?

CaspianReports says it is because geopolitics, development, national security, stability. BTW ofc China is not Communist. What are your informed arguments?

The entire video is so laughably uninformed and misleading (and "geopolitics" is a 19th century pseudo-science of questionable origin and with little actual facts backing it up), that I don't even know where to begin criticising it ;)

CaspianReports is not as good as it used to be, I think. I stopped watching it a long time ago.

Just make some points so people can understand your views better.

Didn't watch the video, but going by the thumbnail, "not leaving your least developed areas/poorest people behind to suffer" is nowhere near Communism. Any Social Democrat can do that, hell, Joe Biden can do that.
