Yeah but what is it trying to say? Is it just saying democracy is good because other people want to be a part of it? Why is it even comparing communism and democracy? Why is it using such a terrible example for communism? Why does it think that this observation is useful for making any kind of point even if it were accurate?
According to Xi, “the consolidation and development of the socialist system will require its own long period of history… it will require the tireless struggle of generations, up to ten generations.” Source
That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t strive for socialism with American characteristics. /s
This isn’t new to this generation though, I remember my friend wore a Poison shirt that she bought at Bluenotes when we were like 12 and neither of us even knew it was a band until like a year later when someone gave her shit for wearing it. It was just a cool shirt man, blame capitalism not the kids.
Less than Jake sold a shirt with one of the poison album covers on it but with their name instead. I remember lots of bands doing similar shirts at the time. I had more than a few butt rock lovers try to get a conversation going about how cece demille was so awesome before I even realized what the shirt was mocking.
