They build an incredibly vibrant _market_ economy with no property rights and very little due process.
Imagine if Musk was disappeared during the Biden presidency into a diversity camp and came out looking like Dr. Frank-N-Furter and instituted mandatory LGBT struggle sessions at twitter.
This is what they did to Jack Ma: https://www.forbes.com/sites/georgecalhoun/2021/06/24/what-r...
do you ever get tired of making up scenarios to be scared about lgbt people?
Are you able to hold a hypothetical in your mind?
yeah but mine don't reveal my unhealthy obsession with trans people
More constructively, and moving on, do you have any suggestions for a good throwaway example of an extreme radical transformation in a person?
TBH I had a chuckle at the Elon -> Frank-N-Furter example that transcends any specific love or hate for either Elon or the Rocky Horror Show.
The point was being made that a billionaire figurehead drastically changed their views after an "indeterminate time" detained by national authorities.
IE what if Musk suddenly behaved in such a manner after being detained by a Biden administration. Wouldn't that be profoundly weird?!?
And yet, it happened to Jack Ma under the CCP.
But instead, you try to link the "weird behaviour" with the GP instead of the hypothetical Musk - whom this is fitting for.

We've seen that. Durov in France after detention began sharing Telegram users' data with authorities. It's unclear how much, but likely full real time access to all of it.
Ironically, there is a rich history of mandatory anti-gay camps in the United States, while there are zero instances of mandatory diversity/LGBT camps.
How does such a place not become a hook up camp? Even with total surveillance there the victims can like change phone number I guess.
You sure have a way of making the Chinese system sound even more appealing.
It's all fun and games when the oppression is against your enemies. The problem is, if the system is set up like that eventually it'll be your turn.
It is my turn right now. The working class is being oppressed as we speak. That's why the system needs to be dismantled so we can strike back.
