Renaming of China's status as a communist state to a Marxist-Leninist one.[edit]
Really feel like the distinction should be made, even if the communism part is kept along with Marxism-Leninism. It just implies that there aren't anarchist strains of communism as well. — Unsigned, by: 107.77.189.41 / talk
Edit war[edit]
There seems to be a bit of an edit war recently. It’s trying to describe the constitutional system and a Marxist interpretation or something. I’m not sure what’s going on. Patty Pat 14:40, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
- It's not a Marxist interpretation, it's someone trying to pretzel logic the PRC into not being an authoritarian capitalist oligarchy. ☭Comrade GC☭Ministry of Praise 17:28, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oh, and as an aside, the definition of democracy they're using includes ancient Athens and the Roman Empire. Both were run in a similar manner, i.e. pick from a pre-approved selection of wealthy dipshits who, maybe, maybe might do something for the commoners. Maybe. I really shouldn't have to point out how this is a severe regression in governance. ☭Comrade GC☭Ministry of Praise 17:32, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
- I also shouldn't have to point out how apologia for what amounts to capitalism but worse also goes against the nominal goals/ideals of socialist thought. ☭Comrade GC☭Ministry of Praise 17:47, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
- Seriously, I really shouldn't have to point this shit out, it's kinda intro level. ☭Comrade GC☭Ministry of Praise 17:51, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

YouTube videos[edit]
Will mention [1] - history in a fun way. IIn some cases familiarity with relevant TV series may be helpful - and some of the cartoon characters are based upon the actors in those series). Anna Livia (talk) 09:39, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
China-Russia interactions[edit]
Came across this; I have read previously of Chinese involvement in Russia across the borders.
Is there enough RW-missional/generally to create an article on Russian-Chinese interactions (and possibly involving Mongolia and even 'the city at the back of the back of beyond' Tuva). Anna Livia (talk) 14:11, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
