Most people growing up in China internalize the message that if China is not strong economically and militarily, it will just be bullied just like it was before.

China as an emergent country level entity sees many others as hypocritical rapists asking to be forgiven while not admitting to the rape.

A country usually is a feminine spirit. But sexual exploitation defiles it, adding too much yang to the yin. A “slut” tries to bed as many men as possible, a yang mental framework of dominance.

Similarly, a country can become a giant dick despite being feminine in nature. The “vessel” aspect is lost (gaia, ships, countries are feminine) and the ship becomes a spear.

Godzilla is also an example. It’s the phallic reactive transformation of nature in response to nuclear defilement.

Many intellectuals in China hate capitalism b/c of how it warps society. They are few in number though and much more are pulled into the rat race or running installed scripts of hyper pragmatismm

This is not lost on the more powerful communist party members who are both older and remember the past more clearly. Their compromise is “capitalism with Chinese characteristics”

It is far more than a ham fisted way to paper over obviously hypocritical propaganda. It’s not about refusing to admit that communism failed but about keeping alive the utopia vision of communism. (Remember that communism isn’t a “bad word” in many countries!)
