I hate how “anti-war” has been hijacked by these people to mean, let imperialist countries invade whoever they want with no consequences. (in the case of tankies, any imperialist country that isn’t in NATO).

What makes you say they don’t think it applies to the West? I don’t follow your logic there.

Because if you tell them China is just as capitalist as the West, they tell you it absolutely isn’t and is a communist country.

Ok but China is absolutely not as capitalist as the west, and that’s an insane thing to say.

I’d buy that line if China wasn’t integrating those large businesses (albeit slowly) into the public sector, something the west is not doing, but rather moving to deregulate more and more (Thanks Trump! /s)

And yet it’s still not a communist country. I get that you want it to be a communist country, but it isn’t.
