Love how hard they’re trying to portray this as a bad thing lmao
The US is run by the capitalist class, and from their point of view China is “authoritarian,” because the Chinese state isn’t allowing the capitalist class to run China.
That’s what Western governments and Western corporate media really mean by “authoritarian” & “totalitarian” governments: that Western capitalist neocolonization is being stymied by those governments.
If the government is in control of anything, capitalists will claim authoritarianism. This is the way.

It’s more like international capital wants unfetter access to resources and labour power in China. A country doing economic or resource nationalism is the problem, not the government doing stuff. All western governments are heavily interventionists in their economies, but they do it mainly for the capitalists and especially the international capitalists, what they do for the people is for keeping social stability so that they may keep their position.
Not very freedomy or very cash money democracy of them 😠
cash money democracy
Fucking LOL
I can only read the headline but that sound to me like a very good thing though.
It’s the Financial Times. Taxes are a cancer for them.
When it’s directed at capitalists and corporations at least
But at what cost 😢
Rich people. The cost is rich people.
“It is deeply concerning that China is trying to make the rich pay their fair share in taxes” – western media, probably
