I mean, capitalism is arguably better than a communist dictatorship. We could do better but that's still progress
Better for whom? Tell that to all the people doing the heavy lifting under capitalism.
Besides... a "communist" dictatorship isn't communist - it's just a dictatorship. If you're doing dictatorship, you're not much of a communist.
But there are plenty of capitalist or partially capitalist countries that aren't dictatorships. Whereas China is essentially ruled by one person. I don't accept your dichotomy either
Sir, this is a Lemmy
