You know what I hate about the term “corrupt”? Part of the meaning is “not working the way it’s intended” and I find that funny because only in a communist country does the term " corrupt politician" actually coincide with the way in which the west uses it.
To explain, the west likes to say " corrupt politician" as a way to describe someone taking bribes from corporations and ather big money and oligarchs. Except this is a capitalist system. The government is supposed to work that way, but the oligarchy doesn’t want you to know that. So they use all these false narratives to make you THINK that you are living in a society that is supposed to work for the working man, but as we know, it doesn’t.
The funny thing is, in this instance, they are actually using the term the right way. An actual corrupt politician in China is one that’s in bed with the the big business and the capitalist class and I think that the wests narrative is starting to show.
This article almost looks as if they are hinting that demonizing the corrupt politicians and businesses is bad because by a capitalists system, the “corrupt” are actually the ones doing what they were always supposed to be doing. Fucking over the proletariate to benefit the capitalist.
Does this make sense? lol
Watch In The Name of the People.
It’s a Chinese cop show, but instead of poor black people like in Amerika, they hunt down corrupt party officials and bourgeois scum circumventing Chinese law. It’s amazing and available for free with English subs on YouTube.
