        Jesus Christ, I forgot that liberals literally don’t have ideological positions. They just repeat mantras until the big, scary rational people go away.

          Yeah, I completely thought up “capitalism with Chinese characteristics” on my own and totally didn’t just replace one word of a thought-terminating mantra invented by (supposedly) “big, scary rational” tankies at all.

          You got me, tankie - it’s all pure originality on my part.

            Let me see if I follow: “Socialism with Chinese Characteristics” was invented by the Communist Party of China who you’re claiming are “tankies”. You then claim that China is actually capitalist.

            So capitalists are tankies.

            Got it.
