This is a really uncomfortable question for people who keep claiming China is just capitalist. If it was then why are we not seeing the same thing happen there that we see happen in every capitalist country. Weird!
You’re giving them way too much credit here. Majority of crakkkers have no deeper analysis than China bad. You need to actually think before you get cognitive dissonance

good point
The world is a truely mysterious place unless you apply basic a materialist analysis
he’s here to helpPeople like Ha-Joon Chang point out some of the problems but even mild criticisms like his are essentially ignored.
I thought that books of Ha-Joon Chang may be a good entry point and eye-opener for libs, but as you wrote, it is maybe true only for the least-orthodox and those swinging ones 😒
My take away from this thread is that a ton of “neoliberal orthodoxy” is just economists trying to explain policy decisions as being like forces of nature, out of the hands of government, and China proving that a government can totally do something different if it actually wants to.
