Chill. By MF, I meant the economists in the west.
lol. MF thinks you can get more productivity by decreasing wages.
Free speech is idealist in the same way that the free market is idealist. Some people will have the resources and authority to make their voices (or the voices of those who agree with them) louder than others, and drown them out.
Like, if you are THE socialist political entity, you should let people say what they want, and you should listen. And after listening, you should use dialectical and historical materialism to filter out progressive ideas from reactionary ones, and develop a mass line that’s neither falls into commandism or tailism.
Something something have faith in the masses.
It’s a useful way of viewing risk/reward and it’s not incompatible with communist theory.
For example, if you take the prisoner’s dilemma and change the risk/reward structure, you can change the equilibrium such that it’s far more likely to have people cooperate.
Unfortunately, that’s not really something that people talk about all that often, because it’s only used to optimize winnings for one party, not to optimize for maximum societal benefit.
How hypocritical.
If you want to know more, I found this article here. Sex ed in China is mostly focused on disease prevention rather than sexual identity.

I can’t comment much, but I do know that there’s a lot of reactionary elements in China regarding not only lgbt issues but also gender equality as well.

Here’s another take by the guardian.
So the organs were not given to the family after the autopsy even when they’d requested it, nor were they at the university, where the autopsy was done.
So that was a load of crap that doesn’t go into the causes of inflation. Here’s a brief summary of how inflation actually works:
Inflation is when the value of a good grows IN PROPORTION to the value of money. Yes, both things have value independent of each other, and as such, we can see supply driven inflation if a country’s currency is devalued with respect to other countries, as it makes it difficult to import feedstock.
There are two primary causes of inflation: supply driven inflation, and demand driven inflation. Supply driven inflation is when not enough goods are produced, as with covid supply chain disruptions. Demand driven inflation is when demand grows with respect to supply, as with using graphics cards to mine bitcoin.
It should be noted that even these are market forces caused by suppliers and consumers, suppliers and consumers themselves don’t directly set prices. The people who own the suppliers do. They must read and manipulate market conditions in order to get the most profit out of their product.
During covid, we have had supply driven inflation due to supply chain disruptions, and hoarding to a lesser degree. However, when these issues have been resolved, we haven’t witnessed prices going back to normal. This is because the bourgeois have successfully read and manipulated market conditions.
In a way, what the bourge has done is a variant of the application of the mass line. They saw that material conditions had forced consumers to acclimate to higher prices, making the conditions ripe for another price increase. So that’s what they did, then they sold it as the new normal.
