"Isn't it ironic? A hundred EV companies have bloomed under communism, while capitalism subsidizes one blowhard making four vehicles and one paperweight. A startup has trained an AI for $5.5m under communism, while capitalist AI requires $500b in govt support. Everything capitalists told you about capitalism was just some bullshit to sell you more capitalism. Communism is actually far more innovative than capitalism. They do more with less, and for better purpose."

Well, that seems to me to be a rather simplistic view. All these innovative companies have not bloomed under "communism", but under a dictatorial system that allowed for islands of some sort of "rental capitalism" within a collectivist society, while accepting strong social inequalities. Those "capitalist islands" were initially heavily promoted by Western advisors (also in the hope of contributing to the liberalization of the system). 1/2

Before that, Mao had completely failed for decades in his numerous efforts to transform China into a modern industrialized state based on the socialist planned economy.
