Dengism as it really exists is not market socialism, it’s not even a proper social market economy (broadly speaking the EU model). Welfare is full of cracks people fall though, billionaires exist, arguably to a larger degree than in Europe. Neither is the case under market socialism which you should rather understand as “communism without central planning and councils relegate decision making to the market in certain areas” than the half state capitalist half private capitalist system China has going on.
Actually, France comes close: China is dirigisme without unions, worker’s, or generally human rights. And infinitely more corrupt.
im not 100% in agreement with it, but yes dengism is the doctrine that gave rise to the current market socialism in china, still very much in line with marxism if much slower than the transition in the ussr. very much on track to a fully socialist economy.
you trying to argue france is more socialist than china? what?? france is literally one of the most capitalist and imperialist nations on earth. are you aware africans have to be exploited for some of france’s nuclear reactors to be powered on right? shit, most of the continent is in as bad shape as it is largely because of france…
im sorry but im struggling to see much sense in what you said. are you just trolling? in any case let me just say “welfare state” or “assistentialism” isn’t what socialism is at all, and you should really look into how the so-called developed nations in the EU acquired their wealth…

France has, for European standards, a very large state sector. That’s what I was saying: They very much don’t shy away from taking state money and whipping it around in the economy to direct it – hence the term dirigisme. And no all those state-run nuclear power plants don’t need Nigerian uranium to run, they run on uranium from anywhere, and in fact do. Kazakhstan, Australia and Canada are all giant producers which don’t happen to be Russia or Nigeria.
By and large colonialism has been a net economical loss for France.
socialism doesnt have much to do with how big the state is, and aims ultimately to end it. thats a very common strawman for comparing apples to oranges though.

ahahahahahahahahahahaha what the fuck. try to find out what european interests are doing to africa if you want to have a peek at actually real imperialism and genocide, happening right now. nothing about history here, this is still the present.
i was actually going to engage further but you are either trolling or need to seriously humble yourself and leave the bubble you are in, because the stuff you are saying is comically nonfactual.

I never claimed it did. I was comparing France and China. Both have a large state sector, and both have capitalist economies. Again, please, have a look at the number of Chinese billionaires you don’t get there without capital accumulation.

“It’s only imperialism and genocide if it’s profitable”, is that what you’re saying?

And don’t get me started on China and imperialism, just like Russia China, in its current form, is an imperial empire. France’s attitude towards its colonial history is a whole other topic but at least they don’t currently have a genocide going on.
Also France has better healthcare, pension, heck even housing and that’s despite of Banlieus.
