Well, you managed to make an even less intellectual comment as a reply, so kudos for that achievement.

No, I didn't.

I already explained to you how China's economy works based on actual facts. You completely ignored it and doubled down on vibes based nonsense that you didn't even bother to defend or explain in any way. Telling you you're wrong is not "less intellectual" than being blatantly wrong.

As a reader btw, I appreciate your point of view. Don't get discouraged when your interlocutors put in less work than you. I think snuffing out the liberal fervor for capitalism by using examples where different systems are successful is vitally important. I'm just not very educated on it as I could be. People like you help with that!

OBJECTION! does a great job with this, they especially have a strong understanding of rhetoric that I tend to lack.
