S4A rejects China as being AES, which is why I call him an ultra-leftist. For him, China allowing some limited capitalism in the short term for the purposes of rapidly building the productive forces means that China is capitalist, end of story. He fears the scroll.

Edit to add: I’m generally put off by S4A’s vibe of the unearned confidence that comes with chauvinism. He sounds like your standard imperial core white cishet male labor aristocrat who always thinks he knows best, despite having no experience with real-world socialism.

I mean PSL are explicitly socialist whereas the Greens are not, but i’m not gonna get upset at someone for voting Greens (unless it’s the German Greens; they’re total lunatics). Neither is perfect, and I think voting either is fine if you live in the US, depending on which you think makes more sense for your district/state. What matters is that you vote against the duopoly and their genocidal warmongering.

Also, S4A is an ultra, they’re anti-China, they’re not exactly the most credible judge of who is and isn’t revisionist.
